Award-Winning Biology Tutors serving Boston, MA

...public school system and at UMass Amherst, I have worked with both high school and college-aged students. As a camp counselor and neuroscience researcher, I have worked with infants and children from 2 months to 13 years of age. I take the time to help my students find the best learning style for them and tailor my teaching approach accordingly. I work to find creative ways to help students understand tough concepts. My goal is to...

...I was taking my prerequisite courses to get into graduate school, I worked part-time as a tutor for Upward Bound. My favorite subjects to tutor are math, physics, chemistry and biology. I firmly believe that in order for a class to be interesting, the teacher must be passionate about the subject. I'm very passionate about the natural sciences, mathematics and language. As your tutor, I hope to impart some of that passion to you. Hopefully,...

...Biology. Performing research, assisting classes, and organizing seminars during graduate school inspired me to pursue a temporary job as an adjunct professor upon returning to the U.S. Teaching here in New York City has better enhanced my pedagogical skills and has taught me a great deal about the differences between group learning scenarios and one-on-one tutoring sessions. I am ever committed to better enhancing your understanding of the biological and chemical sciences.

As a dedicated and enthusiastic tutor, my goal is to help foster a supportive and engaging learning environment that empowers students to reach their full potential. I have always believe that every student has different learning styles, but the common ability to succeed. It is my job to help unlock that potential by tailoring my approaches to fit their individual learning styles.

...cultivate and create an enriching learning atmosphere. Educators have the unique privilege to make a lasting impression on their students, and it is my philosophy to empower students to synthesize scientific concepts. Furthermore, I understand that learning these concepts can be daunting for the new learner. However, studying medicine is very fascinating when the instructor creates an immersive experience for their students. I seek to establish a scientific foundation for the students that translate to...

...more complicated subjects. A recent student can recall what was difficult about the class and explain how they worked through that confusion. I found this philosophy to be especially helpful in college-level math, where the teachers often don't have the time to explain rigorous subjects slowly. Being able to ask questions of a former student and hear clarifying feedback is very helpful. My goal as a tutor is to help students understand what is happening...

...two passions, medicine, and education. I am currently in school obtaining a combination B.S. and Masters Degree in Biology, with a minor in Education. I love all the subjects that I tutor, and my favorite aspect of tutoring is watching a student's understanding of a challenging subject grow. My teaching philosophy is that each individual student will learn best with an individualized plan. Outside of academia, I work as a 911 EMT.

...and like to draw and play guitar; not to mention the fact that I can quote pretty much any funny movie ever. I believe that anyone can learn any material; it just needs to be presented in an engaging fashion. We all tend to do better in the subjects that we enjoy but unfortunately we can't love everything; so it'll be my job to make the experience as likable as possible. I'm a people person...

...I am doing research through the Veterinary school. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, I am most passionate about math, chemistry, and neuroscience. I am a firm believer that natural ability has little to do with success in a subject. Everyone can succeed at math or chemistry if they are engaged, having fun, and most importantly, understand the necessary underlying concepts. In my spare time, I enjoy playing competitive ultimate frisbee, soccer, and...

...public health from Northeastern University. I currently work as a chronic disease epidemiologist, studying cardiovascular disease and its risk factors in populations. I am lead author on multiple peer reviewed publications. I offer tutoring in writing, biostatistics, psychology, and biology. Through tutoring at Northeastern University, I developed a teaching style that is supportive, patient, and, most importantly, flexible based on the needs of the student. My goal is to help you get to where you...

...been working with students at all levels on several topics for over a decade. I have a B.S. in physics, and a master's in Nuclear Science and Engineering from WPI. I completed my second master's in particle astrophysics at the university of Strasbourg in France. I love getting students excited about learning and helping them through difficult topics. One of my favorite challenges is working with students to figure out their specific learning styles to...

...to help students understand complex concepts. I also like to call myself an academic coach. A coach helps students understand the material in front of them. A coach also pays close attention to building a student's academic "muscles." My goal is always to equip the student with the intellectual and analytical tools that will enable them to succeed not just in school but in all their endeavors. My reward comes from watching the student grow...

...it works. One of the best ways to learn coding of course is to use it to create something. When teaching in a group setting I try to encourage students to work together to solve problems. If one student is having some difficulties at a certain point or the code doesn't seem to be working as it should, I like to encourage everyone to contribute to solving the problem. This teaches them to work together,...

...am currently also getting my teaching certification in both subjects here in Massachusetts. My primary objective as a tutor is to help students make sense of difficult material. I truly believe that every student has the ability to thrive if the subject matter in presented in the right way.

...as possible, yet can benefit from thinking about the same information in different ways; striking this balance keeps students engaged. I also answer and ask questions carefully, helping students learn how to think through problems on their own and truly understand the correct answers. Through working with me, students can become more independent and confident, knowing that they have the critical thinking skills needed to continue to learn and meet their goals.

...Most recently, I worked at a local tutoring center with students ages 7-16, tutoring reading/writing, English, and math. I have also worked with several high school and undergraduate student research volunteers in the lab. My favorite subjects are math and science, but I also love reading, writing, and French! I spent five months living in France during my undergraduate degree, and I speak near-fluent French. I love working with kids and young adults, and I'd...

I believe that all students can access and succeed in any curriculum area with the proper support and guidance

Each of us is born curious about the world around us. Science explains this curiosity, but sometimes the explanations become confusing. I love science and I enjoy making difficult concepts clear and meaningful. When concepts make sense, it is easy to recall them on tests and quizzes! My background includes 24 years of public school science teaching and three years at a private high school. Currently, I teach biology and chemistry as an adjunct professor.

...students one-on-one who would benefit from extra help. I do this every semester here at school, averaging 30 hours per semester in classrooms, and I love interacting with students! I also have experience working with younger children with literacy and phonics, through an AmeriCorps program called Jumpstart. Here I was lucky enough to conduct a pre-school classroom with a team of my peers. Not only was it adorable, but it was also tons of fun!
