Get to Know a Tutor: Gabby Khan

We're almost through the week and what better way to celebrate than with a Get to Know a Tutor post! This week, we're highlighting another one of our Math and Science tutors, Gabby Khan!

Now that you know how to get Math and Science help if you want it, let's get to know Gabby!

Tell us about yourself!

I’m a sophomore, computer science major with a game development pathway. I work in the MASTC and I tutor CMSC 201-203, MATH 151-152, and PHYS 121

Tell us what else you do on campus.

I work for the honors college council and I’m the public relations chair. I advertise events for the honors college.

Why did you get involved with the Academic Success Center?

I would go there a lot for tutoring when I first started here and I realized it’s really helpful. Since I hung out there all the time, someone assumed I was a tutor. I helped them out and then I realized “hey! I can do this!”

Why do you love your job?

I love when students come back to me and tell me that they now understand something and they’ve succeeded in their class. I had a student message me and thank me for helping them in Physics! I like the feeling that I’m actually helping people achieve what they want.

Ideal pizza and why?

I have two. I love Magherita because it has those rich flavors and textures! I also like everything veggie pizza! I don’t hate meat, but I feel like it’s got that crunch factor and that taste on everything.

Thanks, Gabby! If you need help with Math and Science, now's a great time to get tutoring and prepare for finals. Remember to seek out help if you need it and finish this semester strong!
