Award-Winning Anatomy Tutors serving Portland, OR

...My ultimate desire is not only to help students understand subjects that they may be struggling with, but to help them cultivate a interest in and passion for the material itself. Understanding and ability in a subject is great, but a true desire for knowledge outside of the classwork itself creates a student driven by curiosity and interest instead of just wanting to pass the class. In my free time, I work at the Osteological...

...overseeing labs, teaching discussion sessions, helping students understand concepts and assignments during office hours, and being available to my students in general. I believe in a student goal-centered, individualized approach to tutoring, and in making sessions as relaxed and stress-free as possible. I believe in celebrating victories, no matter how small, and in learning from mistakes and weaknesses with an optimistic eye. I enjoy tutoring math the most, not only because I find the subject...

He improved greatly in the time I worked with him, and it was incredibly rewarding to watch him master concepts that he once found difficult.

...taking strategies and tricks that have helped me get high scores on AP tests. Additionally, I can tutor you for the ACT. Since the ACT tests your test-taking strategies over content/knowledge, I believe that the strongest way of approaching this test is by learning strategies. As a student myself, I have realized that the best way to ace tests and classes is by being confident. This is only possible if we understand the concepts rather...

...it. Education has opened up so many doors for me, and this is largely because I was fortunate to have some amazing teachers growing up who made learning fun (or at the very least not miserable). My goal is to do the same for each one of the students who I work with, and find ways to make even the most abstract concepts or complex math problems "click" in a student's mind.... Individualization is key. Find...

...patient instructor and an effective communicator. As my dad was a high school math teacher, I also learned a few things from him about how to teach difficult subjects to students. Since I am in medical school, I obviously love science involving anything that has to do with the body, so I would be very excited to assist with biology or other topics in that area. In addition to general coursework, I'm more than happy...

...medical school courses including anatomy, biochemistry, physiology, immunology, histology and embryology. After completion of my degree, I continued to tutor master students in biochemistry and anatomy. I love to teach using visual aids, quizzes and unique and fun mnemonics/techniques that will make sure you never forget the information you learn. After I receive the class notes and requirements from the student, I prepare an outline and a powerpoint for our session. During our session, I...

Every student has a different learning type and it is up to their tutor to figure out what that type is and apply teaching styles that will benefit that individual. Besides working as a microbiologist I also am a high school hockey coach at Notre Dame College Prep in Niles, IL. I am a huge Black Hawk fan and definitely believe Ovechkin is better than...
