About Catalena

Hello! My name is Catalena, and I'm a pre-med student at UC San Diego majoring in Human Biology. I offer K-12 tutoring across all subjects, with a special focus on STEM (biology, chemistry, math, and statistics). I aim to make learning engaging, approachable, and confidence-building, tailoring each session to a student's unique needs and goals. Whether it's homework help, test prep, or building long-term study skills, I bring patience, clear explanations, and creative strategies to support success. Beyond academics, I encourage curiosity by connecting schoolwork to real-world examples, helping students see the value in what they're learning. I'm also happy to support organization, time management, and study habits. My goal is to create a positive, supportive environment where students feel capable and inspired to reach their potential.
