Hello! I’m Manna, a student at Princeton University pursuing a major in Molecular Biology and a minor in Bio-Engineering, with plans to follow the pre-med track. My passion for social impact and helping others drives my dedication to medicine and science education.
I thrive on connecting with people and fostering a love for learning. With experience tutoring both young children and SAT students, along with my experience as a camp counselor during my summers, I bring patience, enthusiasm, and empathy to my tutoring sessions. The subjects I am open to tutoring include test prep (SAT/PSAT), Math, Reading, History, Chemistry, and Biology.
Beyond academics, I’m deeply interested in the intersection of art and science. As a Princeton Science Outreach Fellow, I’m dedicated to making science education engaging and accessible for K-12 students through innovative and creative approaches. In my spare time, I enjoy dancing—serving as the treasurer for two dance clubs at Princeton—along with exploring crocheting and water coloring.
