András Székely M.D.

I am currently employed by a large county hospital where I work as a board certified radiologist. Our department is the largest teleradiology provider in the country.

Every semester I teach a 6 week, basic chest x-ray course for medical students in English. I am also involved in teaching general radiology  to 4th year medical students  in English as well as in Hungarian. 

During these two years I was an employee of the Natural Sciences Department at El Camino College and a member of the M.E.S.A tutor team. I was responsible for tutoring students in three different courses:

• CHEM 1A (Basic Organic Chemistry)
• CHEM 1B (Advanced Organic Chemisty)
• MATH 11 (Basic Algebra)

In each course I held two 90-minute-long sessions per week, for which I prepared my own worksheets for the students to work on, and I provided all necessary explanations to the students. These session were closely tied in with the regular curriculum, so I had to communicate with the professors of the given courses on a regular basis. I founded the CHEM 1B workshop as it had never been done before. M.E.S.A. stands for Math, Engineer, Science Achievement and is a none-profit organisation that is helping students attain better academic performance in the natural sciences. I am proud to have been amongs the founders of M.E.S.A. while juggling with my own studies.

• I finished my M.D. at the University of Debrecen Medical and Health Science Center, formerly known as University of Debrecen, School of Medicine.
• I did my student research project at the Department of Nuclear Medicine, since 2007. My research focused on peristaltic wave studies of megaureters using gamma camera.

I attended El Camino College for two years, during which:

• I completed an A.S. degree in biology,
• I finished all the requirements for transfering to UCLA with a major in psychobiology,
• I received a scholarship from the Chemistry department,
• I was awarded the Presidential Scholarship at the Natural Sciences Department. Only 8 students receive this award and scholarship from a student body of 10,000 each year, and only one student is chosen for each department.
• I was a paid tutor at the MESA Program for 3 semesters.
• I took an active role in the Honors Transfer Program,
• I wrote for the student newspaper every month.

• I completed my secondary school education in Torrance. I was rookie of the year and most valuable player in tennis in the year 1999.
• I finished 3 Los Angeles Marathons between 1999-2001.
