I studied Wildlife Conservation Biology at UC Davis. I graduated from Cal State Long Beach where I earned my Master's degree in Biology where I studied bird flight physiology. I also worked as a teaching assistant at Cal State Long Beach and have taught Biostatistics and Human Physiology. I have a background teaching children at science camps, at an environmental non-profit, and at the therapeutic horseback riding center I currently volunteer at.I am passionate about biology because I am fascinated with how it describes the world around me. I also tutor general and AP statistics as well as Biostatistics for high school and college students. To me, I think it is very important to make sure that my students don't just do well on their homework, but that they truly understand the concepts they are working with. With every problem we cover, I try to go over related concepts and ways they might see the material on a test.In my free time I like to ride horses and I also do jiu jitsu. I also love the outdoors and enjoy camping and hiking as well. I love to travel and I have studied abroad in South Africa and Costa Rica and visited many other beautiful countries.

My name is Monika, and I'm currently a Junior at VCU. My major is Biology and I'm minoring in Chemistry and Mathematics. In addition, I'm also on the pre-med track, so I have taken many science classes!

What's up! I am a recent graduate of WashU with a major in Biology with plans of applying to medical school. I am an expert in mathematics and the natural sciences, and love helping students discover these subjects. I am cool, down to earth, and funny, and enjoy making connections with students.

As the youngest of three boys, being raised by a Single Mom puts a certain perspective on the world. We resided in Arlington, an area within Jacksonville, FL, which at the time had the highest violent crime rate in the state. Our normal was quite different from others. Not just socioeconomically, but in a broader more systemic sense. Our middle brother, Jeremy, is considered the "Lucky" one: he is a tattoo artist. Born with a natural gift that lifted him from our neighborhood to a better life. The oldest, Jason, is a chef. A learned craft that he sacrificed many years in perfecting.Every parents dream is for their child to succeed in life. I am quite sure our mother hoped for the same. A more realistic aspiration was for us to simply come home safely from school and not be a footnote on the evening news. This was our neighborhood, a place in constant chaos. Fortunately, our mother's perseverance and adaptability got us away from the neighborhood. I learned from a very young age, that I wanted more than this life, I wanted better for myself.In the beginning sports were my tool to escape poverty. I earned a scholarship to Jacksonville University as a Quarterback/Pitcher. College wasn't without its struggle: a shoulder repair as a freshman nearly overtook my career, but focus and determination allowed me to continue to play and succeed, earning the first championship in Jacksonville University football history. I continued to pursue sports, professionally, but stopped once I learned I would be a father to my son, Alexander. He is currently five and starting school. I remember learning the news of Alexander's impending arrival and thinking "I have five to six years to get a career together, to support my family". I immediately gave up the tool that took me away from the neighborhood, enrolled in Barry University; and I received my MSc in Biomedical Sciences sixteen months later, while raising my son.All opportunities are met with expectations and their corresponding adjustments, and AUC was no exception. The key difference that set me apart from many of my colleagues was family: I am a father first. Family is extremely valuable to me, it's the one thing we felt could not be taken away from us. Family is a constant motivator that helps drive us to a greater future. Our mother and our son, representations of the past and future, are powerful reminders of where we have came from and where we intend to go.My 3rd year of medical school was spent abroad in the UK. My time in the UK molded more than my medical knowledge, it shaped my view on the role of medicine in our society. There I was introduced to the field of Interventional Radiology. The challenge of interpreting scans combined with performing elegant procedures, all while treating the patient from beginning to end was an approach to medicine that I desired."The definition of an educated person is the realization of how ignorant one is to the world." Socrates' advocacy for humble learning is an ideology for us all to continue into the future. We can have a new normal. I look forward to meeting you.

My objective as your tutor is to help figure out what your specific obstacles are -- what you know, what you don't know, what you need to learn -- and help you get past them. My tutoring is very goal-oriented and personalized for each client.

I have 10 years experience teaching Anatomy, Biology, Microbiology, Intro to Biochemistry and Human Biology and others at the college level. I have an equal amount of experience tutoring Biology, Anatomy, Chemistry and other Sciences to high school and college students. During my time teaching and tutoring at a variety of schools I have had the privilege of educating a diverse range of students. I have found one of the most effective means of teaching is to ensure open lines of communication between myself and my students. Oftentimes it is still better to have in-person demonstrations, so I offer out-of-class reviews over class material and help students prepare for exams.While presenting the material itself, I use a variety of techniques. I understand verbal, visual, auditory and kinesthetic learning styles. In addition to my lecture I present movies or clips to illustrate concepts. I also employ models of organ systems we are covering or to demonstrate how things look different in three dimensions. These give the students something tactile to grasp and usually assists students with difficult concepts. If there are no models available for what I want to show, I will make them myself. I have made DNA and RNA models out of clay and used wired models, clay , beads and string to illustrate how hormones work.I also have the students engage in both small and large group discussions and exercises about the material. It is here that the bonds I form early really help, as the students are more inclined to bring up discussion points and share their views and ideas. I can also bring in my own experiences as a researcher and connect the concepts with real world applications. Once they have made that connection, it allows for greater comprehension and retention of the material.No singular teaching style is perfect and there is always room for improvement. As such, at the end of every semester I pass out a form asking what the students liked and just as importantly disliked about the class. I read over these and make changes and alterations to my classes in response. One result of this is that I provide all the notes on Blackboard from day one of class to make it easier for them to take notes during lecture. I have also put together a presentation on the first day going over study tips and techniques to help them excel in not just my class but anything they are taking. Additionally, I ask each student their major or area of interest. This allows me to tailor my lectures or bring up relevant articles or relationships so they can see how the material applies to their area of interest.I get great satisfaction from being an educator. I feel privileged to be able to share knowledge with so many students. I often find that I learn as much as I teach. I look forward to fostering knowledge and understanding for years to come.

Hello! I am a current first year medical student . I graduated from The Ohio State University with a Bachelors degree in Neuroscience. During my four years of college, I guided K-12 students of the Columbus area in various subjects after-school and served as a mentor for many students. I was involved with organizing campus tours for high schoolers and participating in BuckeyeThon, a student-run philanthropy that raises money for pediatric cancer patients.My wide range of teaching experiences in both academic subjects and test preparation have led me to be highly adaptable to different learning styles and I will cater my teaching methods to meet every student's needs. Along with this, I am open for additional questions or help that is needed outside of tutoring sessions.

I'm in my 2nd year of medical school at the University of Central Florida. I previously graduated Cum Laude from the University of California, San Diego with a degree in Human Biology and Education Studies. I was an Academic Mentor for underprivileged San Diego communities. I was also a Teaching Assistant for the Biology department at UCSD. I have taught in a variety of settings; from one-on-one tutoring to review sessions for 300 people in a lecture hall. I primarily tutor MCAT, SAT, and the SAT.In my experience, rather than the Tutor being an all-knowing power who lectures on the information, the most beneficial environment for the student is one that feels like a conversation. By creating a dynamic atmosphere between Tutor and student, the student will be able to truly understand the material. Constant collaboration is the key to a student's success and I have spent years mastering this skill.My interests, outside of teaching, include sports, music, and international work. I personally understand the everyday challenges that student athletes must overcome and I can tailor my approach to best fit their academic needs. On top of sports, I have spent my entire life learning either the piano, guitar, or ukulele. I traveled to Italy and spent two weeks there to sing for the Pope. I recently completed a ten day medical mission in Vietnam, providing primary health care and aiding the surgery team for ten or more hours each day.

I graduated Wesleyan University where I received my degree in molecular biology and biochemistry with minors in education studies and chemistry. My education gave me both real world tutoring practice and insight into the psychological and sociological dimensions of education in the United States. I have long been involved in teaching/tutoring. Before attending University, I tutored students aged 8-13 at a YMCA afterschool program in reading, writing, and math. Separately, I tutored high school aged students for the AP biology exam. At Wesleyan, I worked as a teaching assistant for multiple courses over several years.As a teaching assistant for introductory biology, I conducted classroom review sessions, focused on cellular and molecular biology, to improve students' grasp on course material and to help with challenging and confusing concepts. I then spent time as a teaching assistant for introductory biology laboratory where I headed weekly experiments for 16 students, focused on exposing 1st year students to a variety of laboratory techniques including PCR, gel electrophoresis and spectroscopy. Here I gained experience evaluating lab reports to provide students with feedback and advice for scientific writing. I now work as a Chemistry Teaching Fellow for Phillips Academy Andover. At Phillips Academy, I teach 2 sections of introductory chemistry for 9th and 10th graders in hybrid and in-person settings. My teaching primarily focuses on giving students the tools to understand energy as it relates to chemical reactions, to explore the concept of equilibrium, and to use models and theories to help students qualitatively understand atomic structure and bonding. I help students learn a variety of study skills and complete numerous laboratory experiments designed to acquaint them with fundamental Chemistry principles and to build skills in the methods and techniques used to elucidate those principles. Further, at Phillips Academy, I collaborate with a 10-person chemistry department and teaching mentor to revise curriculum, develop innovative lesson plans, and expand grading methods. I am extremely well versed in all areas of biology and chemistry and while I have experience tutoring a broad range of subjects, I am most excited to tutor biology and chemistry. I love to teach. I understand how difficult school can be, and I have had my fair share of struggles with varying course material. Whenever I am struggling, I have always looked for guidance from my teachers and tutors to help me when I need it. I want to help students the same way my teachers and tutors have helped me. I am thrilled to be a part of this process, and I want to help in any way that I can.

I firmly believe in the concept that students learn best about science by doing. For high school students, learning may be start through group discussion in class, assignments, or laboratory exercises. For graduate classes, the learning comes from doing experimental demonstration in classroom or lab. Research is core soul of science. During teaching, my aim to convey my message to undergraduates and all graduate students, choose science (research) for their future careers, science not only brings progress in life also significantly contribute in progress of nation and that possible by today's students and tomorrow's scientists.
