...taught several years at the undergraduate level in New York City and in New Jersey. Although I was completely comfortable lecturing during my large classes, as an instructor, I made every effort to work one-on-one with my students during office hours and through appointments.

Hi! I am a research specialist at the University of Pennsylvania, studying the biology of gastrointestinal cancer. I graduated with a BS in biology from the College of William and Mary. Please contact me if you need help with biology, chemistry and other STEM subjects (including studying for the STEM sections in the SAT, GRE and MCAT) or with writing essays. Thanks! I look forward to working with you!

...Medicine at Rowan University. I enjoy helping others and often find myself tutoring my classmates in basic sciences such as Biology, Chemistry, and Physiology. Although I can tutor a wide range of subjects, my favorite subject would be Algebra. I have dealt with a variety of personalities which makes me versatile. I make complicated concepts easy to understand by using real-life examples and constantly engaging the student with questions. I am a firm believer in...

...been involved in peer tutoring all throughout high school and am currently also a tutor with the West Philadelphia Tutoring Project. I have found that tutoring is such a fulfilling way to help others succeed while learning new information myself. It also allows me to build new and lasting relationships with those I work with, which is something I have come to value. Outside of school/work, I enjoy dancing, reading, listening to music, and hanging...

I have a BS in Biology, and a PhD in Plant Science. My area of research is in plant genetics. I have taught courses in Plant Biology and Genetics at the college and university-level at a range of institutions.

I like to have students actively engaged in their learning. I also like to show...

...am available to teach general high school biology, as well as more advanced upper level high school and undergraduate biology courses. In my experiences teaching a diverse student population, I have come to realize that a fear of learning difficult material is a major roadblock to successful science learning for many students. I strive to improve science education by making science seem more accessible to students and reinforcing the “big picture” of a particular lesson before...

...animal anatomy and physiology course and in an upper-level biochemistry course. Furthermore, I have mentored underclassmen by helping them through courses that I took in previous years. I have earned a B.S. in Molecular Biology from Messiah College and I am working towards a Ph.D. in Biochemistry at Drexel University. When I am not lost in the world of academia, I enjoy spending time in nature, reading science-fiction books, and cooking plant-based foods.

...teach my tools for success to any pre-student willing to learn them. I have been a teaching assistant for both General Chemistry I and II for two semesters each and have taught CPR, AED, First Aid to Salt Lake City Citizens.

...very overwhelming, and it becomes easy to get lost in the problem before even starting. As a tutor, I like to break down each problem piece by piece until it makes sense. You must put the pieces of a puzzle together one-by-one before the big picture becomes clear; and understanding math or science is no different. When I have free time, I enjoy reading, shopping, and spending time with my three cats.

...and have always found myself in mentoring positions. I find immense fulfillment in helping others understand difficult concepts, and feel as though my patient and creative personality truly helps people feel comfortable while struggling through new material.

I plan to start medical school in the near future.

...for whom it might feel a little more challenging. Working as a tutor for biology, organic chemistry, general chemistry, and neuroscience, I actively implemented this philosophy, finding creative ways to approach complex concepts. For example, I might steer a writing student studying organic chemistry to explain a reaction as a narrative of molecular interactions, rather than beginning with a complex problem. In the context of shifting careers, I have also taken a number of standardized...
