¡Hola a todos!
My name is Shiri Cohen and I am a senior. My major is visual arts, and my concentration is in animation. I also have a minor in Spanish. In my experience as a Spanish minor, I’ve discovered how important it is to maintain an understanding of the content learned in intermediate courses like SPAN201 throughout my studies. By reviewing the materials learned in class, SI PASS sessions allow you to understand the content of the course better. I hope to see you at my sessions! Nos vemos 🙂
Que tengas un buen día! 🙂

Image of Sarah YodaHello! My name is Sarah Yoda, and I just graduated this May 2024 as a pre-med, chemical engineering major on the bio-track. I’ve also served as a CHEM 351 tutor for four semesters. Having taken and tutored the course, I’ve learned the importance of certain concepts, how to apply them, and how to best remember them when it comes to studying. I hope that our SI Pass sessions together will serve as a great tool to help you understand organic chemistry better. I look forward to seeing you at my sessions!
