Courtney
Certified Physiology Tutor
Courtney
MS Arizona State University • BA University of Notre Dame
1+ Years Tutoring

Understanding physiology means tracking cause and effect across organ systems — how a change in blood pH triggers respiratory compensation, or why cardiac output depends on both stroke volume and heart rate. Courtney's biology graduate work and undergraduate teaching experience at ASU give her a detailed command of these integrative mechanisms, and she excels at walking through the logic chain that connects stimulus to response.

Daniel
BA Arizona State University • Doctor of Dental Science, Dentistry University of California Los Angeles
13+ Years Tutoring

Studying physiology in dental school meant mastering everything from cardiac output equations to nerve signal propagation in the trigeminal system. Daniel unpacks organ system functions by tying each mechanism back to a clinical scenario — how the kidneys regulate blood pressure, why the sympathetic nervous system triggers specific responses — so the logic behind each process becomes memorable.

Andrew
BA Northwestern University • Juris Doctor, Law Tulane University of Louisiana
15+ Years Tutoring

A Northwestern history and economics graduate turned attorney, Andrew brings an unusual skill to physiology: the ability to build logical arguments out of complex evidence. That translates well when students need to reason through chains like how aldosterone affects sodium reabsorption in the distal tubule, or why sympathetic activation increases heart rate — he treats each mechanism as a case to construct, not a paragraph to memorize. Rated 4.9 by students.

Musa
BA Arizona State University
1+ Years Tutoring

Spending a year at ASU's tutoring center working with students on science coursework showed Musa exactly where physiology tends to trip people up — concepts like the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system or the mechanics of gas exchange across alveolar membranes, where one missed step derails the whole chain. His biological sciences training and MCAT preparation mean he can unpack those multi-step regulatory pathways at whatever depth a student needs, from the broad organ-system overview down to the cellular detail. Rated 5.0 by students.

Madeleine
BA Arizona State University
4+ Years Tutoring

I am a student at the Barrett Honors College, a part of Arizona State University. I expect to earn my Bachelor of Science in Applied Mathematics with a focus on physics in December 2022. While my degree has had a heavy focus on physical sciences, I have also completed a variety of coursework in social and life sciences to prepare for my post-graduation plans. After graduation, I hope to earn either a Bachelor of Science in Nursing or a Master of Science in Entry to Nursing Practice and begin work as a pediatric nurse. I decided to change my path from mathematics and physics to nursing because I perform best and feel happiest when I am working with others, which is why I am so excited to have the opportunity to be a tutor. I first realized my passion for people-centered work in high school when I volunteered with the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation to help educate financial donors and newly diagnosed families on the science of type 1 diabetes. My passion grew throughout my time in college, during which I joined a division of a Rotary club, which matches people of all ages with service projects within their local community, became a teaching assistant for a Socratic-seminar discussion and writing course for freshmen in Barrett Honors College, and worked as a student researcher in a physics lab, where I had to collaborate with my colleagues to address research problems and clearly present my specific field of work to others who were less well versed in the topic.

Arpita
BA Emory University
4+ Years Tutoring

I am a rising senior at Emory University majoring in Biology, B.S. on a pre-med track in the Biology Honors Program. In my sophomore year, I was a math and literacy tutor at Emory Reads where I worked with students at Ivy Prep Academy, Atlanta GA. Now, I lead review sessions for my fellow classmates in organic chemistry and biology to prepare for upcoming exams. In my past tutoring experiences and review sessions, I always used different colors and incorporated diagrams to improve conceptual understanding because I firmly believe every problem can be solved; if we have a solid foundation and truly understand a concept, we can apply it to any given scenario and figure out the solution. In order to make sure of this, I always encourage students to ask questions until all doubts have been cleared before moving on to decrease gaps in understanding. I can help with math, english, biology, chemistry, and physics although I think my favorite subjects to tutor would have to be Organic Chemistry and Human Physiology! I sincerely enjoy teaching these subjects and hope to show the students just how fascinating they can really be.

Hanna
BA New York University
1+ Years Tutoring

Completing premed coursework at NYU while earning a finance degree gave Hanna an unusual double fluency — she thinks about the body's regulatory systems with the same rigor she'd apply to financial models, tracing inputs, outputs, and feedback the way she'd track capital flows. That analytical habit pays off in physiology topics like hormonal feedback loops, cardiac cycle timing, and renal clearance, where students who can follow the logic outperform those who just memorize the steps. Her subsequent classroom teaching experience also means she's practiced at breaking a dense process into smaller, sequenced pieces that actually stick.
