Award-Winning Physiology Tutors serving Washington DC

...This was my first experience teaching in class and I absolutely loved it. My students initially thought I was hard, but as time went on they realized that my style of teaching was beneficial to them and they did well in the lab class. I then taught lab techniques while doing fellowship at the NIH to summer students and thoroughly enjoyed it. My students loved the way I explained things to them in detail and...

...fail to realize how much power those known memories have on our potential to make new ones. One of the techniques that I teach my students is how to use that everyday “useless" trivia, and apply it to what they NEED to remember. I have a wealth of knowledge that I would love to share with my students, especially about the sciences. But, at the end of the day, I want to see my students...

...work with students of multiple ages, educational levels, socioeconomic and cultural backgrounds and to develop an appreciation for individual uniqueness when it comes to learning strategies and preferences. As such, I try to respect each student's learning pace, level of comfort/aptitude for a particular subject and learning style when organizing a tutoring session. To me, studying should be not only about achieving academic success but, primarily, about having fun and developing an appreciation for continuous...

...economics and also followed the pre-med curriculum. I have a great deal of experience (about 3-4 years) in tutoring students of various ages - whether it be test prep, course work (economics, biology, various math levels), etc. I believe in a three pronged approach to helping students - clarity, comprehension, and persistence. It is my hope that I can encourage students to seek their full potential. When not tutoring, I enjoy playing basketball, listening to...

...the NIH. I have experience tutoring college, high school, and middle school students. During tutoring sessions I like to pinpoint where the problem areas are and begin by working with students on the fundamentals. Once the basics are covered I like to work through problems together as a way to learn material, but ask that students spend some time studying topics at home/doing practice problems that we can go over during the tutoring sessions.

...physiology. It is my job to inspire and incite students to what to really know the material that is presented to them. At the same time, it is also important to me that students feel comfortable about going into a test. To do this I plan on implementing quizzes and other assignments that will allow me to see if the information I am teaching is being understood by the students while simultaneously allowing the students...

...Science degree in Biology. I have taken a wealth of science and mathematics courses. I have taken everything from elementary math up to Calculus II. I have taken Biology, Genetics, Ecology, Microbiology, Cellular Biology, and much more. I have also taken my share of writing and literature classes as I am a blogger, short story writer, and spoken word artist. I have a passion for passing on the knowledge and techniques I have learned. I...

...part time at Johns Hopkins University. I have taken and passed the USMLE Step 1, and I have previous experience with the MCAT as well. Since a lot of my time was devoted to studying for these exams in the past, I have gained experience when it comes to working under pressure and have now developed several test-taking strategies. Due to my medical background, I also have extensive knowledge when it comes to basic sciences...

...I am currently a medical student at Aberdeen University and my passion for science and healthcare is growing each day! I have been a tutor for five years now and tutor at all levels. I think learning is a very individual process so I like to get to know my students and tailor my style to their needs, whether that be more visual learning, tons of practice problems or a more auditory approach. After all...

...years I studied biology and dance. I love learning and secretly want to be a student forever. I equally enjoy teaching students. My earliest tutoring experience dates back to when I was 16, where I taught my native language German. Since then, I have tutored other subjects as well including biology, physiology, and chemistry to name a few. Having won several science awards, I know lots of fun facts to share with my tutees. During...

...I also tutored my two younger brothers with their college materials as well. As I got my degree in Biological Science, I have the most confidence in teaching those subjects up to college students level. i am also working hard towards getting my DDS(Doctor of Dental Surgery) and we focus a lot in the science subjects. My experience teaching various students with different characteristics enabled me to find a effective way to tutor different people....

...can explain it better to my patients. My tutoring style is similar to the doctor-patient relationship: being patient, explaining concepts in basic terms that are easy to understand, being constantly available for assistance at anytime, and helping my students WANT to make progress in their studies (similar to making my patients WANT to improve their health). Aside from my medical work, I play both the violin and the piano, and find music to be very...

...skilled at breaking down and organizing complex science concepts into much simpler and manageable concepts to understand. I believe this will really help the students I tutor to learn and grasp the material. It truly brightens my day to see the excitement in students eyes when they finally understand the material after putting in the effort. However, the most satisfying aspect of tutoring for me is not just being able to help the students understand...

...I have two years of experience tutoring undergraduate students in Science, mostly Biology and Chemistry. I love bringing a student out of their shell and having a conversation about the material. I think the best way for anyone to learn is to explain the new information in different ways that relate back to their own life and having a conversation about the material is the easiest way to do that. In my spare time, I...

...student. I try to build on what already exist. I try to assess what my students already understand about the subject matter and try to relate the new and difficult concepts based on that. I also use different examples, diagrams and role plays to make things easier. I encourage interactive learning styles. I enjoy tutoring and love to see my student make it through their exams and become successful. I am very dedicated to see...

...learn! I am a graduate from Lake Erie College, with a B.S. in Biology and a minor in Chemistry. I excelled in the science program there and tutored Biology, Anatomy and Physiology, Organic Chemistry, and Zoology during my Junior and Senior years. I have worked in Laboratory settings since graduation and have real world applicable knowledge of Biology. I LOVE teaching and cannot wait to help others learn and excel in their science classes and...

...mind. I therefore strive not just to communicate content, but to instill a passion that will drive self motivated learning. Whether discussing The Great Gatsby or reviewing the Navier Stokes Equations for fluid dynamics, I am excited to share my enthusiasm for learning with a younger generation. I am currently working as a full-time engineer for NASA, but in my free time I enjoy mountain biking, spending time with family and going to museums.

...the position, I also train and mentor numerous undergraduate students in Microbiology, lab protocol and food safety. I will tutor in Biology, Life Science and Science, however I am very passionate about Microbiology. In my experience, each student is unique and no one person has the same learning style, so it is important to first find out how a student thinks before you teach them. Science has been my favorite subject for as long as...

...organization and detail. I received an IB diploma upon high school completion and BS in Biology from Colorado State University in 2011. I am currently enrolled in a paramedic certification program in the DC area. I volunteered as a tutor in college working with students from kindergarten to high school seniors. I am excited to help students understand confusing ideas and subjects. Knowledge is power and learning can be fun, so let's get to work.

...and through hard work and focus, I believe anyone can grow into a stronger thinker and a more effective student. I also think science is very fun, and the best way to improve in a subject that may be difficult is to find the parts of it which are enjoyable to you. I believe tutoring should be flexible to the needs of the student, and that being open to different approaches is a sure-fire way...
