...tutoring at the college level. During my masters at Boston University, I taught a freshman Biology course and tutored a number of private clients in subjects such as physiology, Biology, and MCAT prep. I was lucky to learn how to make learning about biology, chemistry, and physics a little more engaging than just memorizing a text book. I'd love to share my passion for science and success with you! I taught undergraduate biology courses at...

My goal as a tutor is to equip you with the information and problem solving skills that will help you succeed in your subject of need and develop critical thinking that will apply to any challenge you face academically. I'm an advocate of the "Learn One, Do One, Teach One" methodology of tutoring, and have seen it transform students academic confidence and learning efficiency. I look forward to helping you tackle your next challenge!

...I wanted. My teaching philosophy is that the mind is complex and that no two are the same. Therefore, I recognize that being able to relate an academic subject to real life interest, provide multiple modalities of learning (verbal, visual, and kinesthetic), and even just providing alternative verbiage/vocabulary when describing a subject a subject can be the difference between a subject sticking in a student's head or the concept flying right past them and landing...

...Science, there are many ways to explain processes, including through the use of analogies and metaphors. However, standardized exam preparation is my favorite subject to tutor because it requires the development of strategies as well as knowledge. It allows students to improve critical thinking skills that will not only be useful for exams, but in their future academic, professional, and personal ventures. As a tutor, my aim is to provide students with the assistance they...

First, context- a topic isn't interesting or important 'just because', we have to discover how it's related to our whole world and especially to things the student already knows they care about. Second, getting to know the student- everyone has unique talents, tendencies, and goals. There is an area of overlap between each school subject (even standardized tests, which require critical thinking!) and a...

Also, I use practice problems so that my students can see their own improvement and gain confidence. These strategies help students to become better lifelong learners, and their benefits extend beyond the subjects I am teaching. In addition to teaching and learning, I love to exercise, play the acoustic guitar, read, and spend time with my loved ones...

Outside of school, I enjoy watching sports (of course I'm a little partial to the Jayhawks, Royals, and chiefs), reading, video games, and also trying to work in some volunteer work in the local area. Overall, each session should be entirely about helping the student attain success in the subject by teaching them...

So, we followed the mantra Algebra is not magic, reminding the student in times when she faltered that she can think through a math problem. As long as she felt grounded enough to access her innate understanding of the world around us, she progressed. Later on, my extensive experience...

Vancouver Anatomy & Physiology Tutoring FAQ
While anatomy and physiology are usually taught as a single course, the two topics have unique approaches when it comes to studying a living organism. When studying anatomy, you will focus on the structure of the biological systems. When studying physiology, you will be focusing on the function of the various components and how they work together. Each offers further specialization at different levels. Whether you are struggling with anatomy or physiology, or just with the course as a whole, Varsity Tutors can help you find a tutor who can assist you in working toward a better understanding.
Within the United States, anatomy and physiology courses may be offered at the graduate or undergraduate level. A basic level is also included as an option in some high schools. There are numerous careers that require a background in anatomy and physiology, including physician, massage therapist, athletic trainer, and biomedical researcher.
Most students who find themselves in an anatomy and physiology class have an interest in some form of medical care. Some of the best medical research schools include Harvard University in Boston, MA; Stanford University in Stanford, CA; and Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, MD. Some of the best primary care schools include University of Washington in Seattle, WA; the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill in Chapel Hill, NC; and the University of California-San Francisco in San Francisco, CA. Even if you have no interest in entering a medical career field, anatomy and physiology can provide you with a solid foundation from which to understand exactly how life works at a fundamental level.
Your personal anatomy and physiology tutor can help break down your textbook and lectures into more easily accessible lessons. For example, each chapter in a textbook can usually be divided into three or four mini-lessons that make it easier to retain the information. There are also usually study tools provided by the textbook that students may overlook, but that your tutor may leverage for building your mastery of the subject. Your tutor may also help you create flashcards and other memory-boosting aids for material that involves memorization, such as learning the names of the muscles, bones, and blood vessels.
Anatomy and physiology courses tend to be challenging, not just because of the type of material covered but also because of the volume of material given. As you work with your private tutor on your anatomy and physiology goals, you will also have the opportunity to optimize academic skills that can be applied to other fields of study. These include proven studying tactics, powerful test-taking strategies, writing and research tips, and time management skills that will help you create a productive process for completing assigned tasks in a timely manner.
The Varsity Tutors live learning platform gives you the power to book private tutoring sessions with your anatomy and physiology tutor online or in person. This gives you the flexibility to meet your tutor at a time and location that is the best fit for your personal schedule and specific academic needs. To get started, give Varsity Tutors a call today.
