Award-Winning Physiology Tutors serving Framingham, MA

My name is Zoe Fullerton and I am current student at Harvard Medical School. I attended Vassar College as an undergraduate where I studied Science, Technology and Society. I am a patient teacher and eager to work with students of all ages. ... I try to cater each lesson to address that student's learning style. I like to cater to a person's strengths in an attempt to meet them halfway in the learning experience.... Get to...

...have taught the SAT, SSAT, AP Biology, AP Physics, and AP Chemistry for 2 years. I love teaching students HOW to learn, not just WHAT to learn. I always emphasize hard work - because you always get what you work for. I don't care about natural intelligence, because trying your best and being persistent is the key to learning and improvement. My favorite part of teaching is seeing the student understanding a concept for the...

...with inspiration. I believe a great tutor not only teaches the material, but also helps students to become more effective learners. I often provide real-world examples to help students get excited about concepts. Also, I use practice problems so that my students can see their own improvement and gain confidence. These strategies help students to become better lifelong learners, and their benefits extend beyond the subjects I am teaching. In addition to teaching and learning,...

...I seemed to have a great understanding of the material. In helping my peers in my study groups, I began to realize a recurring theme - they didn't know how to approach learning in the Sciences. As a result, I found a niche and a passion in teaching in the science modalities. Over the course of the next couple of years, I was a TA in Organic Chemistry, and I was employed by the university...

...can apply them to many different, and more complex, problems rather than just the ones they have already encountered. Since graduating, I worked in Clinical Informatics until completing my obligatory 6-month active-duty training as an Army Reserve Officer at Ft. Sam Houston, TX. I recently moved up to Boston to study Health Informatics at Boston University. In my spare time, I enjoy reading books (scientific non-fiction, literature and science fiction), watching quality films, programming, skiing...

...involved in the school's tutoring program. For two and a half years I worked as Emmanuel's biology, and Anatomy and Physiology tutor, as well as a part-time lab assistant for Organic Chemistry. In addition to tutoring college level classes, I also was a part-time teacher's assistant at a local preschool. I was very fortunate to work in both fields at the same time as it resulted in creativity with my higher level lesson plans, and...

...high school students from the Atlanta area. While I enjoy tutoring many subjects, I am most passionate about Classical and English Literature and Ecology and Evolutionary Biology. In my experiences assisting students with tough concepts, I always try to cater to the student's best learning style and work to make the material approachable, engaging and relevant. I believe that learning how to learn and loving to learn are critical skills and I hope to pass...

...Boston University during undergrad and Tufts University for my masters. After much thought, I deviated from a medical school track to pursue a career in the medical device industry. My love for math and science started around middle school, and I was strongly influenced by my teachers. Through tutoring, I hope to be a similar influence. I really enjoy working with students of all ages (elementary to grads!) In my spare time, I enjoy cooking,...

...make those concepts clear. I've also worked with GED prep students who are working out information anew. I have a background in psychiatry, which serves as a testament to the patient, non-judgmental approach that I bring to every interaction. I enjoy medicine and I enjoy people, and therefore also enjoy sharing information and coming up with new ways to present medical concepts. I know what it is like to put pressure on oneself to attain...

...classroom and one-on-one settings. I am most comfortable teaching quantitative sciences, although I also have experience teaching standardized tests and more qualitative subjects such as Biology or Chemistry. I am a born and raised Bostonian, having grown up in Reading, MA. I am a proud product of the Massachusetts Public School system. I am a die-hard Patriots fan, as well as a Bruins season ticket holder. My other hobbies include computer hardware and software building/modding,...

...a better understanding as one builds new topics on previous ones. I have found that students have the most success in first reviewing basic concepts to assess and address where they are having difficulty, followed by continuous problem-solving to reinforce the concepts and strategies until they become second nature. Like the subjects that I teach, I believe that education is an ongoing and ever-growing component that is necessary for a happy and fulfilling life, and...

...applying to highly competitive scholarships. Each of these experiences has taught me how to communicate concepts in clear and engaging ways. For instance, while tutoring adolescents enrolled in the Boston-based Artists for Humanity program, I would often teach students whom I had never worked with before, and thus became adept at quickly discovering and implementing the strategies that worked best for a particular student (e.g., visual/tactile examples, analogies, and breaking down complex problems into smaller...

...tools, and exercises to curious minds between the ages of 18-40 to know more about entrepreneurship and how to start a company. I was born and raised in Cameroon, a country located West of Central Africa. I moved to the United States of America in 2009 and have resided in Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, Washington D.C., and now Massachusetts. I am a recent dual master's degree holder in Business Administration and Science in Finance from Babson College...

...of which made me realize that my greatest goals could be a tangible reality. Now I couldn't be happier in my career as a surgeon in training. I have ever since been "paying it forward," educating high school and college level students, and now medical students. The greatest satisfaction is seeing my students get that "ah ha!" moment when everything comes together, and then seeing them go on to accomplish what they always thought was...

...it may not always seem so, the internet can be your best friend during a tutoring session. I like to find images and explain them to give a deeper understanding of a topic, and when all else fails, I always carry around a personal white board! When I am not in the classroom, I like to find myself immersed in the beautiful culture of the city. At least once a month, I like to take...

I'm a retired physician, who rediscovered his love for teaching as a volunteer tutor for Boston's Partners in Education. I have been a volunteer tutor for high school kids at Artists for Humanity for the past 3 years. I have many years of experience teaching in Medical Continuing Education.

I am a graduate student studying nursing at Simmons College. I am also a certified Emergency Medical Technician! During the time that I don't spend studying or working, I enjoy reading fiction novels. I have experience tutoring reading, writing, biology, chemistry, and German! My hope while tutoring is that I can impart some of my passion for learning to my students!

...in Massachusetts, where I graduated with a B.A. in Biochemistry. At Wheaton, I developed the philosophy that learning should be fun. In my tutoring sessions I like to take time to get to know the student before we jump into the material. Even as we work through the session, it is not uncommon to joke around and laugh. Currently I am tutoring Biology and Life Sciences which are my favorite subjects because they can be...

...program for underclassmen who were struggling in their science courses. Outside of this, I volunteered my time to help students who were struggling in the upper level courses I was taking. I love science and medicine and I love teaching students to understand and appreciate how cool science can be. I believe that once you understand the concepts and how they fit into the larger framework, it makes memorizing a lot easier and it gives...
