Award-Winning Genetics Tutors serving Portland, OR

...realized that I have a passion for teaching when I taught basic Hebrew to children in kindergarten, 1st, and 2nd grade. I quickly understood that each student learns differently, and began to incorporate different learning approaches into my teaching style. I enjoyed this challenge and continue to utilize this approach with all future tutoring. During undergrad I earned by CRLA tutoring certification and tutored in many subjects including neuroscience, biology, scientific writing, essay writing. I...

...efficient way possible. As educators, it doesn't make sense to give a student a fish but rather to teach them to fish for themselves. For this reason, I believe there are two types of students: those who make excuses and those who find a way. I believe in the power of determination and a hard work ethic. Failure is not permanent but merely a stop on the way to success and I believe that this...

...high school students in math, chemistry, and French; and college students in chemistry and genetics. I strive to make personal connections with my students so that they do not just feel like bullets on a list.

I want every student to feel capable and to possess a growth mindset.

I have truly enjoyed studying the sciences in my college years, and since then have enjoyed even more so to tutor the scientific concepts to others!... Teaching is gauged by the comprehension of the student. If one knows something well, they can help another understand it in terms beneficial for the learner!... I like to get an idea of the student's comfort level with the material, and whether or not the student recognizes exactly which hurdles...
