Tim
Certified Science Tutor
Tim
BA Massachusetts Institute of Technology
6+ Years Tutoring

Tim's Computational Neuroscience major sits at the intersection of biology, chemistry, and quantitative modeling, giving him an unusually integrated view of the sciences. He taught chemistry and biology at a STEM summer camp for 6th–9th graders, so he knows how to break down concepts like atomic structure, cell processes, and experimental design for students still building their scientific vocabulary.

Yasmeen
Certified Science Tutor
Yasmeen
BA University of Pennsylvania
9+ Years Tutoring

Yasmeen's strongest suit is teaching students how to read like a scientist — pulling claims from dense passages, interpreting what a graph actually says, and spotting where an experiment's logic holds up or breaks down. Her Penn education in history and political science was built on evaluating evidence and constructing arguments from sources, which is exactly what science asks students to do with data instead of documents. Rated 5.0 by students.

Margarita
MS Texas State University-San Marcos • BA Rice University
5+ Years Tutoring

I am passionate about helping students because I've been a student my whole life! Even though I'm a professor now, I love to learn. And now that I have experience, I love to help others along the learning journey. I have degrees in English and education from Rice University, UT Austin, Texas State, and Texas A&M. I also studied abroad in England at the University of East Anglia and have traveled to many countries. I tutor English and Spanish (my family is from Mexico City). My favorite thing to tutor is writing, and I have taught writing from the Kindergarten-graduate school (Ph.D.) level (what I currently do). I am here to share tools and tips to help you succeed in your learning journey.

Brian
BA Ohio State University-Main Campus
9+ Years Tutoring

An economics major with a math minor at Ohio State's Honors College, Brian spends most of his coursework building and testing models — forming hypotheses about how systems behave, gathering data, and figuring out whether the evidence supports the theory. That process is the scientific method in everything but name, and he applies it when teaching students to set up controlled experiments, read data tables, and explain results clearly. His 33 ACT confirms he can handle the quantitative and analytical demands science throws at students.

Justin
BA University of New Hampshire-Main Campus
1+ Years Tutoring

Having trained specifically to teach middle and high school students, Justin knows how to scaffold math-heavy science concepts — unit conversions, rate calculations, interpreting graphs — so they don't become roadblocks to understanding the actual science. His Secondary Math Education degree means he's practiced at diagnosing exactly where a student's quantitative reasoning breaks down, then rebuilding that step so the experiment or formula makes sense again.

Adriana
BA Babes Bolyai University
5+ Years Tutoring

Science isn't Adriana's primary credential, but her applied math background is a serious asset in courses where quantitative reasoning is the real bottleneck — unit conversions in chemistry, kinematics equations in physics, or data interpretation in biology labs. She tackles the math-heavy parts of science coursework so students can focus on understanding the concepts behind the numbers.

10+ Years Tutoring

I'm not tutoring or buried in my textbooks, you will either find me rock climbing at the Triangle Rock Club, playing Ultimate Frisbee, working on my car, or enjoying the great outdoors (beaches, mountains, forests--you name it, I love it). On rainy weekends I enjoy tinkering with computers and old electronics, playing Pokemon, or picking at my guitar.

Nina
MS Columbia University • BA Northwestern University
10+ Years Tutoring

I am a recent graduate from a masters program in biostatistics at Columbia University. I received my Bachelor of Arts in biological sciences, with a focus in neurobiology at Northwestern University. In August, I will be starting a doctoral program in biostatistics at NYU. I was a teaching assistant at Columbia University in my department and also have tutored graduate students and undergraduates privately as well. My primary areas of tutoring are math and statistics coursework in addition to math sections on standardized tests such as the GRE and GMAT. I am very passionate about helping students feel more confident and excited about math. In my spare time, I enjoy running, playing piano, and spending time with friends and family.

Reid
PhD Harvard University • BA Wesleyan University
1+ Years Tutoring

I am a graduate of Wesleyan University, where I received my Bachelor of Arts in Sociology with High Honors. With eight years of experience working in education, I've tutored students in math, science, history, and English, as well as helped students prepare for standardized tests. I've guided adults towards passing the US Citizenship Exam and taught English in India, where I lived for six months. Whenever I work with a student I personalize the lessons to fit their particular learning style, since I know every student is unique and having the right fit can make all the difference in making learning fun and effective. My strengths are tutoring the social sciences and humanities, as well as making math and standardized tests approachable to students that normally don't like those subjects. In my spare time I like traveling, spending time in the outdoors (climbing & backpacking), meditation, and playing soccer. Next fall I will be beginning my PhD in Education at Harvard University.

Liz
MS Simmons College • BA Washington University in St. Louis
1+ Years Tutoring

I am a graduate of Washington University in St Louis, where I received my Bachelor of Arts in History with minors in Humanities and Anthropology. Since graduation, I have worked as a tutor, teacher, and director of tutors at a charter public middle school in Boston. During this time I also received my Masters in Mild to Moderate Disabilities from Simmons College. I have worked extensively with students with a range of abilities, including students with specific learning disabilities, emotional impairments, dyslexia, and ADHD. My teaching experience has given me a deep understanding of the knowledge and habits essential to academic success and has given me the opportunity to hone a variety of strategies that ensure students at each level can achieve their academic goals. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, my favorite ones are Reading, Elementary/Middle School Math, History, and Test Prep. In my experience, tutoring is the most rewarding when a student has that "aha!" moment and achieves a new level of understanding and confidence in his/her abilities. I am a firm believer in the transformative power of education, and I see my role to be that of a facilitator and coach who is there to help the student reach his/her goals through individualized support and rigorous practice. In my free time, I enjoy reading, running, practicing my Spanish, and discovering new music. I am also an avid traveler and just got back from a 3 month trip to South America. I look forward to the opportunity to work with you!
