Sarina Abedi

Vancouver,BC

Summary

My name is Sarina, and I am currently a second-year Master of Science in Nursing (MSN) student. I am deeply passionate about teaching and have previous experience as both a tutor and teaching assistant. My long-term goal is to become a nurse educator or clinical instructor, and I view the opportunity to work with the UBC faculty as a valuable step toward that aspiration. With only elective courses this semester, I have a flexible schedule and am well-positioned to dedicate my time and energy to supporting students as a teaching assistant.
