Series Details

About

Whether your heart pumps red, blue, or purple blood, this series is for you! We’ll be covering basic heart anatomy/physiology but mostly focusing on the most common complex congenital heart defect, Tetralogy of Fallot: what it is and how it is repaired. So, I suggest you have either taken Biology or Anatomy & Physiology or have some kind of background so you can jump right in with us. If you don’t have previous knowledge in the topic, that’s ok, I will try and make it easy enough for everyone. See you in class! *This series was misplaced in Enrichment, but now it’s in Biology! 😅

Tutor Qualifications

I took Biology and also attended a Pre Med Summer Camp at an in-state private university. I was also a blue baby myself, so I know a bit about Tetralogy of Fallot. 🙃

✋ ATTENDANCE POLICY

The first session is the lesson and the second session is entirely review, so I strongly recommend not missing any sessions. However, attendance is not mandatory, but you are doing yourself a favor by attending both. 😉

About the Tutor

Hi there! I’m Evie and I’m a senior in high school this year! I’m totally into anything related to the medical field, doodling, and just making kids laugh. I am also an advocate for the fight against all kinds of cancers. I believe in Faith, Hope, Cure! I am passionate about showing kids how amazing they truly are and that if you work hard enough, you can do anything! I took my SAT and got 1480 (760 in Evidence-Based Reading and Writing and 720 in Math) I have a 4.0 GPA so far. I am hoping to study psychology and art next summer and become a child life specialist one day! Peace ✌🏼

Session 1

Other Topics

In this session we will go over what CHD is and understand basic heart functions. And then we’ll dive right in to understanding Tetralogy of Fallot! There won’t be specific vocabulary necessarily, but you should keep the terms in mind for the general quiz review games in the next session. Memorize concepts, not just vocabulary. There will be extracurricular material for further study. 👉🏼🎧 *IF AT ALL POSSIBLE, PLEASE BRING HEADPHONES. IT WILL BE EASIER TO HEAR THE HEARTBEATS USING HEADPHONES. If you don’t have headphones, please raise the volume on your device because the heartbeat sounds are very low.

Session 2

Review

Show your stuff! This session is entirely review, so make sure you remember everything you can. If you forget something, just try again and learn from your mistakes. We’re going to be playing Gimkit. I personally like Capture the Flag and maybe Trust No One, but we’ll see what you guys want to play! 😄
