Meet Daniel Uribe! He is Pharmacy student and a tutor.

Biggest piece of study advice for new students?
Write down everything you learn in a peripheral brain that you can always come back to. Always test yourself, be curious, and ask questions.
What is your favorite subject to tutor?
My favorite subject is probably hematology/oncology since I want to go into that specialty.
How has your experience as a peer tutor enhanced your understanding of the course material?
Being a tutor is a win-win experience for me. I help others understand material while also getting a solid understanding of that same material for my knowledge and most importantly, the NAPLEX.
Most rewarding aspect of being a tutor?
The satisfaction of being able to help peers understand topics better.
What do you do to decompress?
Go for a run, take a nap, and/or go to the gym.
Tell us a fun fact about yourself!
I was almost born in Japan!
What motivated you to be a tutor?
I used to tutor peers in high school and college. I would like to teach one day on top of working as a pharmacist. Being a tutor is a great way to practice this.
What is your favorite place to study?
The campus library! Especially with the new renovations.
CAP is hiring tutors from the PharmD 2027 & 2028 cohorts!
