| Hello my name is Aida Aparicio and I am a junior here is Sam Houston State University. I’m studying for a B.S. in Forensics Chemistry with minors in Biology and Criminal Justice. Not only am I a student but I am also a student assistant/tutor for Project CONNECT. Thanks to my major I been able to take many class that are difficult but at the same time help me to further help other students. I tutor chemistry (up to Organic 2), biology, trigonometry, calculus 1 and even some criminal justice. My goal is to help other students understand the material in any way I can. Now that I have said all the important information said its time to let you know how I am. I’m a very outgoing and understanding person so any time you need to cancel an appointment just shoot me an email. I’m just a simple person who wants to help students to do better. | |

I'm Naomi Doraisamy, and I'm an English major with a minor in Communication Studies. I'm in my first semester of my senior year and hope to graduate in December. I edit papers for the most part, but I also help at all stages of the paper writing process, whether it's brainstorming, outlining, or researching. I love to work with students on papers about a large variety of subjects, whether literature, history, CJ, and even philosophy. Even the most boring assignment can be interesting and easy if you plan it right. I look forward to hearing from you! |

| My name is Damilola, but you can call me Dami. Here's a little information about me: I am a Senior Math Major with a Biology minor, and it's my second year at Sam. I love traveling and living in different places (Although, i've only been to 2 countries, technically), watching TV Shows, taking long walks, driving, shopping, learning about any and everything, doing calculations (a bit nerdy) and cooking. Out of all my hobbies, learning is what I enjoy doing the most.This is because I believe that learning is core to life: we live to learn, to live. My hope is that as a tutor, I can share my knowledge and experience while learning from you. For the most part, I tutor Math (Calculus, Statistics, Trigonometry, Algebra), and Science (General Biology, Cell Biology, General Chemistry, Human Anatomy&Physiology). You can also ask me other general questions like "How far is the earth from the moon?" or "How do you make Jamaican curry chicken?" and I'll try to answer- even if it means looking it up on google! Anyway, working with you will be a great opportunity for me, and I hope you feel the same way! |

Selenha's Office Hours:

| My name is Selenha and I am a junior here at Sam Houston State. I am majoring in Victim Studies with a minor in Spanish. Although I am fluent in Spanish, I decided to take it as my minor because I understand that it an important language in our society. With my major I plan to work in Child Protective Services or work with abused women and children. I love my major because I believe in helping other people who have struggled in the past should be something important. Some of my hobbies include shopping and listening to music. On my free time I like to read and play video games. Starting school here at Sam, I had trouble with some of my classes and I didn’t know where to go to get help. So some classes became quite difficult for me. I would have been so grateful if I would have known about Project Connect and how they offer tutoring for students. I believe that helping each other is an essential part of our community as students. Now I have the opportunity to tutor students and help them with their courses. I will be tutoring Spanish (Elementary 1 and 2, Intermediate 1 and 2, Grammar and Composition, Conversational Spanish 1 and 2), Political Science (Public Policy), and English (Composition 1 and 2). I would be honored to tutor anyone who needs help, so don’t be afraid to ask! |
