Award-Winning Science Tutors
serving Montgomery, AL

From studying malaria genetics at Notre Dame to working in a public health laboratory, Haley has spent years applying the scientific method across biology, chemistry, and microbiology — not just reading about it. She breaks down concepts like experimental design, data interpretation, and systems-level thinking so students see how different science disciplines connect rather than treating each as its own silo.

Stanford's Human Biology program sits at the intersection of molecular science, ethics, and public health, which gave Joshua an unusually broad view of how scientific concepts connect to the real world. He breaks down topics like cell signaling, genetics, and ecological systems by tying them to concrete examples — how a virus hijacks a cell, why antibiotic resistance spreads — so the underlying logic sticks. That approach is especially useful for students who can memorize facts but struggle to explain the 'why' behind them.

Mustafa's math degree at Vanderbilt gives him a quantitative edge when breaking down science concepts — interpreting data tables, balancing chemical equations, or converting units in physics problems. He treats science as a subject where precision with numbers matters just as much as understanding the concepts behind them.

As a math major at Amherst College with a 34 ACT, Rosalyn brings serious quantitative muscle to the parts of science that trip students up most — calculating density, converting units, interpreting graphs, and making sense of formulas in physics or chemistry. She's especially good at finding a second or third way to explain a concept when the first approach doesn't land, which matters in a subject where one confusing diagram can derail an entire lesson. Rated 5.0 by students.

Working with newly-arrived immigrant children in Boston means Jennessa regularly explains everyday scientific concepts — weather patterns, plant growth, how the body works — in plain, accessible language, which is exactly the skill that makes science click for any student still building content vocabulary. She leans on hands-on examples and real-world connections to make topics like states of matter or basic ecology feel intuitive rather than textbook-heavy. Rated 5.0 by students.

Aerospace engineering at Georgia Tech means Emma lives in the overlap of physics, chemistry, and applied math every day — forces, thermodynamics, fluid behavior, and the calculus that ties them together. She's particularly good at translating abstract scientific principles into concrete, visual explanations that make problem-solving feel less like guesswork.

As an environmental studies major at Oberlin, Nina connects science to the real world — explaining ecosystems, weather patterns, or the water cycle through examples kids can actually observe outside their window. She's especially strong with earth and life science topics, making vocabulary-heavy material stick by tying it to hands-on thinking rather than rote memorization.

Studying wildlife science at the master's level means Darcey applies the scientific method daily — designing field studies, analyzing ecological data, and interpreting results across biology, chemistry, and environmental systems. She breaks down concepts like energy transfer, natural selection, and experimental design by connecting them to real ecosystems she's actually studied in the field.

I am an aerospace engineering student. I am very passionate about teaching math, physics, and chemistry. I realized tutoring was my calling while working as a tutor at my school. Seeing students gain a greater understanding of the subject was the highlight of my day while working there.

I graduated with a BA in Politics and a BA in Anthropology from NYU in 2022. I also hold a MS in Biomedical Anthropology and a Graduate Certificate in Forensic Health and Nursing from SUNY Binghamton (graduated May 2024). I have worked in education, with a previous position with America Reads/America Counts teaching elementary students in the NYC public school system. My previous virtual tutoring experience was with Curious Cardinals, where I had tutored high school students with the following: forensic science, biology (anatomy, genetics), SAT Evidence-Based Reading and Writing, ACT English and ACT Reading. I have experience working in forensic science policy at the Innocence Project, which is an organization focused on exonerating individuals who were wrongfully convicted of crime. In this role, I have written testimonials, case reports, and research articles on forensic identification methods and their legal, ethical, political, and privacy implications in casework. I have also worked in the forensic science sector as a Criminalist II at the NYC Office of Chief Medical Examiner (OCME). In this position, I assisted medical examiners (forensic pathologists) in the positive identification of deceased individuals throughout New York City. I also assisted in missing persons inquiries that were brought to the agency. Recently, I completed a research project in Vitoria de Santo Antao and Recife (both in the state of Pernambuco, in northeast Brazil) as a Fulbright Grantee. My research focused on osteology, forensic anthropology, and forensic genetics. My project involved metric analyses of bones combined with analyzing genetic information from DNA taken from bones. Currently, I am a doctoral student of Biological Sciences - Genetics at the University of Sao Paulo (USP). As a doctoral student, my dissertation project is expanding on the research I did with the Fulbright grant and is based on the central question/problem: What is the evolutionary relationship between skeletal morphology (primarily size), external pigmentation (i.e., skin, hair), and the presence of vitamin D deficiencies (which are indicated by the presence of skeletal lesions and decreased bone mineral density)? My favorite subjects in school were biology and anatomy, U.S. history, statistics, pre-algebra and algebra I, language and literature. I also partook in concert band and orchestra both in high school and in college. I am excited to share my skills and knowledge in these subjects with you, as well!

Studying biomedical sciences across multiple degree programs gave Sam a deep comfort with biology, chemistry, and the overlap between them — cell signaling pathways, enzyme kinetics, physiological systems. He unpacks scientific concepts by tying them to real-world applications, like how understanding osmosis explains IV fluid choices in a hospital. That clinical framing tends to make abstract processes click faster for students.

Speech-language pathology graduate training at Columbia is surprisingly science-heavy — anatomy, neuroscience, research design — and Sherry brings that clinical lens to teaching students how biological systems work and how experiments should be structured. Her UChicago psychology and linguistics background also means she's comfortable with everything from statistical reasoning to breaking apart dense scientific terminology using morphological roots. Rated 5.0 by students.

A mechanical engineering grad student who builds things, breaks things, and troubleshoots what went wrong — Aaron brings that same hands-on diagnostic process to science topics like forces, energy, properties of matter, and experimental design. His 1530 SAT confirms the analytical horsepower, and his 5.0 rating suggests he explains the reasoning behind results in a way that actually lands.

Ben's science tutoring draws on his IB Chemistry background and the quantitative rigor of his Penn math training, which means he's especially effective when science gets mathematical — balancing equations, interpreting rate laws, or working through stoichiometry. He teaches students to translate word-heavy science problems into clean mathematical setups they can actually solve.

Comparative literature might seem worlds away from science, but Brittney's Princeton training in close reading and textual analysis translates surprisingly well to parsing dense lab instructions, extracting meaning from data tables, and interpreting the kind of evidence-based passages that show up across science coursework. She's strongest with students who can grasp the concepts but struggle to articulate their reasoning in writing — lab reports, short-answer explanations, and constructing arguments from observations. Rated 5.0 by students.

A chemistry major headed to Columbia Medical School, James treats science tutoring as an exercise in building intuition — understanding why a reaction proceeds a certain way or how energy flows through a biological system, not just memorizing diagrams. He's especially sharp at bridging the gap between introductory courses and the more rigorous thinking that AP or IB-level science demands.

Running a tutoring program at a charter middle school meant Liz wasn't just teaching science content — she was figuring out how to make vocabulary-heavy units on cells, ecosystems, and states of matter land for students with dyslexia, ADHD, and other learning differences. Her special education master's gave her a toolkit of concrete strategies for breaking down dense nonfiction text and multi-step processes, which is where most science students actually get stuck. She holds a 4.7 rating across her subjects.

Jennifer's ELA training at NYU's accelerated MAT program might seem distant from science, but teaching students to read dense nonfiction closely — pulling claims from evidence, evaluating an author's reasoning, spotting unsupported conclusions — is exactly what science coursework demands when students face lab reports, textbook passages, and data-heavy questions. She's especially useful for students who understand the concepts but struggle to articulate their thinking in written explanations or short-answer responses.

A master's in environmental engineering means Kate didn't just study biology, chemistry, and physics — she used all three together to solve real problems like modeling water contamination or analyzing energy systems. That cross-disciplinary perspective makes her especially effective at showing students how scientific concepts connect rather than treating each unit as isolated material. Rated 4.9 by students.

Biology was Joseph's undergraduate focus at UCLA, and his public health master's at Yale keeps him immersed in how scientific concepts apply to real problems like disease transmission and environmental health. He unpacks topics like the scientific method, cell structure, and ecosystems by connecting them to questions students encounter outside the classroom.

Electrical engineering at Stanford required Jai to live inside physics and applied science — circuit analysis, electromagnetic theory, thermodynamics, and the math that ties them together. He approaches science tutoring by anchoring each concept to a physical intuition or real-world example before introducing the equations. Students studying for AP Physics, chemistry, or general science courses get someone who genuinely thinks in scientific terms daily.

Having studied biology and chemistry alongside her political science degree at the University of Chicago, Asta can walk students through core science concepts — from cell structure to chemical reactions — with genuine content knowledge rather than just test-taking tricks. Her 35 ACT confirms she handled the Science section's rapid-fire data interpretation at a near-perfect level, and she brings that same ability to teach students how to read graphs, pull patterns from tables, and connect evidence to conclusions.
