Award-Winning Biochemistry Tutors serving Boston, MA

...year of high school and have been tutoring my peers at Oregon State University and Bates College ever since. Although I tutor a variety of subjects, I am most passionate about helping students through chemistry/organic chemistry and attempting to foster a love of the subject. I value creating a safe space where students feel comfortable making mistakes and asking questions, guiding a productive struggle with the material to encourage a deeper understanding. In my spare...

...for the General Biology course, a tutor for the Cell Biology course, and a tutor for a Biochemistry course for graduate students. After college, I attended the University of Pittsburgh for graduate school and earned my PhD in Cellular and Molecular Pathology. During graduate school I was a mentor for a junior high school student in a summer program and helped her design and execute a research project examining a genetic knockout mouse model. I...

I have always had a knack for seeing multiple solutions to a given problem (even receiving a little gag award for our fifth grade graduation, titled: "I have a better way to do that" award). In addition to the natural joy I get from tutoring, I also enjoy solving the puzzle of determining which solution method matches best with how each student learns and thinks.

...current educational needs in private and public institutions. Many children needed one-to-one tutoring, which I could not provide as a teacher. I enjoy teaching in a classroom, but I found that my strengths lie in one-to-one interaction. It is easy for students to fall behind, especially with the increasing classroom size. A lot of learning happens outside of school, and without guidance, this learning is often not effective. My goal is to bridge this gap,...

...and Inorganic chemistry from the University of British Columbia, with post-doctoral experience at Northwestern University. I have worked for 7+ year in the biotech industry at the forefront of chemistry and biology. What I have learned is that skills in chemistry and in science apply to many different fields. Many things I learned in undergraduate I didn't think would be relevant and turned out be very relevant to solve complex problems and I believe showing...

Hello! I am a freshman at Boston University studying Biochemistry. My passions include instrumental and vocal music, hiking, and reading. I'm excited to meet you!

...trained peers and colleagues in various research labs and research projects. As I gained experience with tutoring, I have improved my communication skills and teaching style, and polished my own understanding of concepts in math and physics. Through this work, I have found the following approaches to work well, regardless of someone's background or interests. 1. Everyone is capable of learning math and physics beyond the level required in high school or college. Although sometimes...

...My teaching/tutoring style is to impart enough information and understanding of a topic to direct a learner toward self-education and problem solving. My style is not to provide the answer, but to guide one in knowing how to arrive at the answer. This approach has served me well in my professional career, as well as in my personal life. I find myself always challenged with learning new things, and self-learning is the key. For example,...

...analytical chemistry biochemistry labs. As a tutor, I try to tie in as many real-world examples to make confusing topics more manageable and applicable to everyday life. I like teaching challenging topics in many different ways until the student can confidently grasp the idea. In addition to concepts, I encourage and help my students find and try different studying techniques that suit them best. Outside of an academic environment, I often lift weights, run, spend...

I am currently a Research Chemist and have been at my current job for the past three years. In the past I have worked at Dow Chemical, where I did research on computer chips and solar panels. I am looking forward to tutoring chemistry because I enjoy teaching it.

...I tutor a wide range of subjects within biology and biotechnology, my deepest passion lies in hematology, oncology, stem cell biology, metabolism, genetic engineering, physiology, microbiology and biochemistry. My teaching approach is both structured and adaptable. I emphasize clear goals and organized content delivery, while remaining flexible to adjust my methods based on individual learning styles and students' evolving needs. This balance allows me to create a supportive environment where students can thrive both academically...

...non-native English speakers with difficulty articulating their questions about quantum physics and Newton's laws. Seeing their reactions when a previously foreign concept became clear was one of the most rewarding experiences I have had in my academic career. Moreover, as part of community service program, Wizards, I led weekly after-school science classes to invigorate interests in science and promote scientific reasoning in STEM education amongst primary school student in the urban Boston area. Demonstrating how...

...and outdoorswoman, and a passionate fan of Boston sports. As a tutor, I offer a broad range of scientific subjects, including Physics, Chemistry and Biology, and I am particularly passionate about Biochemistry and Microbiology. I also offer and enjoy test prep, including the SAT and independent school entrance exams such as the ISEE and SSAT. As an educator, I am passionate about helping every student, because I believe that everyone has the potential to succeed...

...for Introductory Chemistry, Analytical Chemistry, and Physical Chemistry. While pursuing a PhD at RPI, I was a volunteer tutor for Chemistry and Chemical Engineering students. While working in industry, I taught my co-workers Statistics, Experiment Design, and Technical Writing. More recently, I have been a professional independent tutor, helping students with test prep, Math, Statistics, Chemistry, and Physics. I help teens and adults overcome fears (especially fear of Math) so they can learn more effectively...

...Algebra, Physics, Microbiology, Chinese, and more. Although I tutor a wide range of subjects, I am most passionate about Calculus, Statistics, and Chinese. Based on my learning and tutoring experience, I believe it is critical to learn and understand all of the concepts of the subject, practice and master the knowledge, and then apply it to real world situations. Organization in the teaching and learning of the subject plays an important role. I hope that...

Dedicated and enthusiastic tutor looking to help students with test prep especially PTCE.I also have interest in Math and Sciences and I have a Doctorate in Pharmacy.I believe learning should be fun, engaging and individualised based on student-specific needs

...Science from weekly sessions that I organized in the Peace Corps, and tutoring college students as a teacher's assistant for Genetics during my undergraduate degree. I love to work with students to help expand their knowledge and assist them to maximize their full learning potential. I teach a lot of subjects but my passion lies in the sciences and statistics, especially in environmental science, biology, chemistry, and biostats. I believe that there are so many...

...love teaching students to understand and appreciate how cool science can be. I believe that once you understand the concepts and how they fit into the larger framework, it makes memorizing a lot easier and it gives you the command of the material that enables you to do well on any exam. When I am not doing research or thinking about the brain, I love to play jazz, soul, and RandB in the New England...

...Mathematics and Chemistry. I currently live in Boston and will be attending medical school next year.I am working as a Pharmacy Technician at CVS and I decided to go back to tutoring because I miss working with people and helping them learn new or difficult subjects. I am fortunate to have been able to share my love of learning with others. A small fact about me is I love traveling and going to the beach.

...classroom to the natural world that surrounds them. This essentially builds curiosity and creativity, which also allows them to be more engaged when learning new material. With my experience in developing lesson plans and working with students both in large groups and individually, I am a firm believer that all students have what it takes to succeed. It is just a matter of determination as well as finding the right learning style that is most...
