Making it official
Spent the afternoon doing something I probably should have done months ago - actually organizing all my tutoring materials instead of just grabbing whatever notes I could find five minutes before meeting someone.

Making it official
Turns out I’ve accidentally created a pretty solid collection of study guides, practice quizzes, and those little memory tricks that actually work.
The thing is, I keep getting asked to help people with anatomy and pharmacology basics, and I keep saying yes because honestly, explaining concepts to someone else is the best way to make sure I actually understand them. But scrambling to find my notes every time is getting old, and more importantly, I think I could actually help people better if I planned this out properly.

Mission accomplished - everything sorted and ready for actual tutoring sessions.
So here’s what I’m thinking - maybe it’s time to stop treating this like a favor I do randomly and start treating it like something I’m actually good at. Set up regular hours, have my materials ready, maybe even figure out which topics people struggle with most and prep for those specifically.
Jake walked by while I was sorting everything and said it looks like I’m starting my own little teaching practice. Which honestly? Doesn’t sound terrible. Especially if it means I stop having those panic moments of ‘wait, where did I put that diagram about cardiac cycles?’
