Award-Winning Biology Tutors in Connecticut

...so much pressure to perform well on standardized tests. We cram with flashcards, pull all nighters, and even sacrifice our social time to prove to the world that we retained what we learned that year. But are we *actually* learning? My goal as a tutor is to make your studies enjoyable. I love to use visual and real world examples to help you grasp difficult concepts. At the end of our sessions, it is my...

...School of Dental Medicine, and a recent graduate (C/O 2019) at University of Delaware where I received a bachelors degree in Chemistry with a minor in Biological Sciences. I mainly tutor for the DAT, which I scored in the 98th percentile when I took it myself! I also provide application advice for applying to Dental school. After taking my DAT, I applied to 8 dental schools and was accepted to 7 of them! In my...

...biology, and studio art. I have been teaching in the sciences and humanities for nine years as a private tutor and have also worked as a health educator at Peer Health Exchange and employee of the NYU University Learning Center. I know that students learn best when they are organized, motivated, and interested in the subject matter. I support my students by helping them to plan out manageable study schedules, consistently providing positive encouragement, and...

...from Boston University where I studied Biomedical Engineering. I went on to work as a field service engineer in Atlanta, GA. I recently went back to school and received my Masters of Business Administration in Marketing from the University of Connecticut.

...their personal abilities. If students dedicate themselves fully to the task at hand and have the genuine desire to succeed, then I think they can accomplish almost anything. During my junior and senior year at Michigan, I was a study group leader for both General Chemistry and Animal Physiology at the University’s Science Learning Center. This experience helped me develop essential leadership and facilitative skills to engage my students in active discussion and ingrain the...

...cycle control and DNA damage repair pathways in the common bread mold Aspergillus nidulans. This experience led me to pursue a PhD in Biomedical Sciences at Mount Sinai School of Medicine. I decided to start tutoring because it is the perfect opportunity for me to share my passion for science and gain valuable teaching experience. The two things that make me a great tutor are my deep understanding of biology and my ability to communicate...

...is giving someone the ability to reason, and the drive and ability to begin teaching themselves. I enjoy teaching certain topics because of their power to bring this about, including languages, mathematics, and (of course) philosophy. All of these areas stretch from an elementary to an advanced level, and I consider it of cardinal importance to equally value the successful communication both of elementary topics, such as algebra 1 or German word order, and complex...

...I especially enjoy helping students with math or English coursework. I can also help with a variety of standardized tests, from the SSAT to the MCAT. I am very interested in helping students overcome test anxiety by learning strategies that can help them stay calm and be efficient. In particular, I want to help students who struggle with timed essays - I myself had to learn ways to complete them successfully, and I hope I...

I have had a passion for math and science since middle school, and I have vast experience in the subjects which I tutor.

I currently work in a chemistry lab at the University of Rochester, specializing in organic synthesis. In high school,...... I try to help students understand basic underlying concepts rather than having them...

...oddly enough, they all involved teaching in some way. Well, not the cows, but THEY taught ME a lot about patience. When I left dairy work for health reasons, my cousin suggested substitute teaching. Then a little third grade boy in a special needs class (my second assignment) stole my heart and my future was decided. After substituting for 5 years (K -12) I completed teaching certification at ECSU in Willimantic. I have been a...

...on my toes going from one subject to the next.

...volunteer basis, specializing in math and science education. I also worked as a curriculum designer for an SAT tutoring firm. I enjoy tutoring because I am strongly against the practice of teaching to the lowest common denominator of students and I believe that every student is entitled to a teacher that will personalize their curriculum and teaching pace to make sure that the student understands the subject in a meaningful and useful way.
