Award-Winning Microbiology Tutors in Wheaton, IL

...As a Science Instructor for inner city high school students in Washington D.C., I've taught Chemistry, Biology and Physics. While at Northwestern University, I’ve also served as a Teaching Assistant for Environmental Chemistry laboratory courses. The combination of these experiences has helped shape my teaching philosophy, that focus should be put on challenging a student’s analytical and problem solving skills. I believe that it is important to guide students through their own learning and discovery...

...obtained a Master's in Medical Sciences this past year at Loyola University Chicago. And after all this hard work I was accepted to medical school! While I am able to tutor on a variety of subjects, I am most passionate about biology and application essay writing. I am an avid reader and love animals, particularly my rescue dog, Birdie. I also enjoy spending time with friends and exploring this big beautiful city!

...to make it easier and more efficient for students to learn and retain information. I have several years of teaching experience, and have taught many Biology and other related courses. My favorite subjects to teach are Physiology and Microbiology. In my spare time, I enjoy reading, relaxing at the beach, and travelling to other countries. I have been to many foreign countries, and my favorite place to visit so far has been Rome, Italy!... I think that studying is easier when it is made to be fun, and related to real-life examples. I aim to connect concepts with their application in our day-to-day activities. I find that this helps student understand and recall more easily as compared to memorizing random facts.

...in a unique way that caters to his or her learning style as well as one that is appropriate for the subject. Once the preferred study style has been identified, it makes for a much more efficient process, and creates an environment in which the student will excel. With my firsthand experience of using different learning strategies to master topics, I want to find the learning style that works best for you and help you...

...Northern suburbs of Chicago, and have lived all over the US and Europe while working in the pharmaceutical industry. I have taught business classes at the post secondary level in the UK, and have also tutored a wide variety of subjects to students at various skill levels back here in Chicago. I truly enjoy helping students reach their goals and maintain their motivation toward success, and I believe that the best tutoring experience begins with...

...I teach Anatomy, Physiology, Pharmacology, Biochemistry, Biostatistics, Pathology, Medical Terminology, Medical Science, Public Health, and any medical or nursing related subjects. My favorite subjects to tutor are medical subjects because it is easier to teach for me, with being a Physician. As far teaching philosophy is concerned, I want my students to understand concepts being taught clearly and to ask questions. This shows me they understand what is being taught and are intellectually curious. Outside...

...graduated. I am also a certified MCAT/ACT instructor. Additionally, I've spent over one year as a tutor at the tutoring center at Loyola University Chicago. I enjoy tutoring one-on-one much more than group instructing. I find that my teaching style varies from student to student, however, I often employ the Socratic method, and I am still a believer in old school liberal arts methodologies, namely using your reasoning and wit to derive answers to almost...

...strong knowledge foundation, but an ability to listen to the tutee and convey that information in a way that makes sense to them. My tutoring philosophy revolves around the Socratic method: namely, I try to help the student discover the subject for themselves versus me simply giving them the answers. I believe that (guided) personal discovery leads not only to greater understanding, but greater knowledge retention as well. Additionally, as someone who played Division III...

...study skills and organization. I specifically love to tutor biochemistry, more importantly, any 'pathways' because I have found awesome methods to not just 'memorize' but understand what is going on in these pathways and convey that to the students I teach. Seeing a student go from hating science to loving it is one of the best feelings! My teaching philosophy is simple: relate. Relate to the student, and relate the subject to what interests the...

...Roosevelt University with a Bachelor of Science in Biochemistry. I have experience tutoring college students in both biology and even more so in chemistry, which is my favorite school subject. I think anyone can understand chemistry with the right explanations and effort. I am always eager to help someone understand concepts that are foreign to them because I love seeing them have an "Ah-ha!" moment and experiencing that moment myself as an everyday learner. In...
