Between a Caltech degree spanning economics and computer science, coursework that ranged from AP Chemistry to physics and engineering, and a 1580 SAT, Brian has unusually deep firsthand experience with the scientific disciplines most tutors only teach from a textbook. He's especially strong on the quantitative backbone of science — setting up equations from word problems, interpreting data sets, and connecting mathematical models to physical phenomena like thermodynamics or mechanics.

From balancing chemical equations to solving kinematics problems, Jackie covers a wide range of science topics — she earned 5s on both AP Chemistry and AP Physics C exams and scored a 35 on the ACT Science section. Her approach treats science reasoning as a skill: reading data tables, interpreting graphs, and connecting experimental results back to underlying concepts.

A Harvard English lit degree might not scream science, but Ema's five years of math tutoring — covering everything from basic measurement to pre-calculus — means she's comfortable with the quantitative backbone of science: unit conversions, graphing data, and working through formulas. Her 33 ACT confirms she can handle cross-disciplinary reasoning, and her instinct for breaking word problems into manageable steps carries over naturally to interpreting experiments and explaining results.

Sean's 1480 SAT required him to tear through data interpretation and evidence-based reasoning questions at speed — the same skills students need when they're asked to read a graph, evaluate an experimental setup, or explain why a control group matters. His communication studies background also means he can teach students to articulate scientific reasoning clearly, which is often the difference between a student who understands a concept and one who can actually demonstrate that understanding on a test or lab report.

Christina's computer science degree required deep coursework across biology, chemistry, and physics — giving her the cross-disciplinary fluency to explain everything from cell respiration to Newton's laws in terms students actually remember. She breaks scientific concepts into logical steps, treating each problem like debugging code: identify what you know, isolate what's confusing, and build toward the answer systematically.

A bio-psychology major on the pre-med track, Aaron lives in the sciences daily — from cellular biology to organic chemistry to neuroscience. He breaks down scientific concepts by connecting them to real-world examples, making abstract processes like enzyme kinetics or chemical equilibrium feel tangible. His 32 ACT composite also means he knows how to translate deep content knowledge into test-ready problem solving.

A sociology major at Yale spends a surprising amount of time with research methods — designing surveys, interpreting statistical outputs, and evaluating whether evidence actually supports a claim — and Katrina brings that training to science material where students need the same skills to work through experiments and data tables. Her 32 ACT confirms she can handle the quantitative side, and her instinct for asking "what does this result actually tell us?" pushes students past surface-level memorization.

Currently pursuing an M.D., Timothy has spent years immersed in biology, chemistry, and physics through both his pre-med coursework and MCAT preparation — subjects that map directly onto the science concepts students encounter in middle and high school. He's particularly strong at breaking down life science topics like anatomy, cell function, and nutrition, then showing how chemistry and physics principles operate underneath them.

As a screenwriting major at USC, Kiersten spends her days building narratives from cause and effect — which is essentially what science asks students to do when tracing how one variable triggers a chain of outcomes in an experiment. She scored a 1550 on the SAT, confirming she can handle evidence-based reasoning and data interpretation, and her experience tutoring charter school juniors means she knows how to make dense material accessible without dumbing it down.

He's especially strong at connecting concepts across disciplines, like showing how the physics of fluid dynamics applies to circulatory systems or how chemistry drives cellular processes.

An English and French literature background might not scream science, but Carla's analytical training — close reading, building arguments from textual evidence, and identifying patterns across complex material — maps well onto interpreting data, understanding experimental write-ups, and explaining results clearly. She's particularly useful for students who can handle the concepts but struggle to articulate their reasoning in lab reports or written responses. Holds a 5.0 rating.

A law clerk for a federal judge has to sift through technical evidence — medical records, environmental data, forensic reports — and determine what it actually proves, which is the same critical evaluation science students need when interpreting experiments and drawing conclusions from data. Keith brings that evidence-weighing discipline to science tutoring, particularly when students struggle to connect observations to explanations or distinguish strong conclusions from weak ones. His UCLA political science training also emphasized research design and statistical reasoning, both of which underpin the scientific method.

Neurobiology sits at the intersection of chemistry, physics, and biology, so Daniel spent his undergraduate years bouncing between all three disciplines daily. That cross-training means he can explain cellular respiration in terms of energy transfer, or connect genetics to molecular chemistry, giving students a more intuitive grasp of how scientific concepts link together rather than treating each unit as isolated material.

Rated 5.0 by students.

Between her public health minor and pre-med preparation at UCLA, Nicole built a deep working knowledge of biology, chemistry, and physical science that she's reinforced through years of tutoring in each. She's especially skilled at teaching students how to connect abstract concepts — like energy transfer or cellular processes — to concrete, observable phenomena. Her experience teaching science in classrooms in the Philippines and Honduras also sharpened her ability to explain ideas without relying on jargon.

I am a graduate of Duke University with a degree in Health Policy and Education Policy. While at Duke University I was a student athlete, participated in the leadership of several clubs and service groups; as well as, working as a Math and Reading tutor. After graduation I spent a year pursing a business venture allotted to me through the Elevator Pitch Competition, my senior year of college, which I won in my category - Non-Profits. After that year, I joined the Teach for America Fellowship, where I fell in love with teaching. The Teach for America Fellowship is 2 years; however, after my first year due to the recognition and growth in my classroom I was invited to start a school. I spent 2 years at that school prior to getting married and moving to California, a few months ago, with my amazing, aerospace loving, husband.

Clinical oncology research at UCLA and a biology degree from LMU give John an unusually hands-on understanding of how science actually works — designing experiments, interpreting data, and connecting theory to observable results. He uses that lens to teach students the scientific method as a thinking tool, whether they're tackling a chemistry stoichiometry problem or analyzing results from a biology lab.

Every core physics and engineering course in Alok's mechanical engineering program at UC Irvine required applying scientific reasoning — setting up experiments, analyzing data, and connecting observations to underlying principles. He translates that hands-on experience into clear explanations of topics like forces, energy, and motion that make abstract concepts tangible.

I am a recent graduate of the University of Virginia living in Los Angeles. While at UVA, I earned a 3.95 GPA and graduated my major program with Highest Distinction. I have eight years of tutoring experience (including starting my own tutoring program) and have worked with students of all ages. I'm looking forward to helping people with their studies in any way I can.

A computer science degree builds the same logical scaffolding science demands — isolating variables, testing predictions systematically, and debugging an explanation when the results don't match the hypothesis. Milan applies that programmer's instinct for structured troubleshooting to science concepts, walking students through how to trace cause-and-effect in everything from chemical reactions to ecosystem dynamics. His English double major also means he can coach the writing-heavy side: lab reports, data explanations, and constructing claims from evidence.

A cellular and molecular biology degree means Janani can dig into science topics at the level students actually need — whether that's explaining mitosis for a freshman bio class or breaking down enzyme kinetics for an upper-level course. She connects abstract processes to concrete examples, like tracing how a single gene mutation cascades into a visible trait.

Studying visual and environmental studies means Tom spends his coursework at the intersection of observation and analysis — documenting how systems interact, interpreting what he sees, and building arguments from evidence, which is essentially the scientific method applied through a different lens. He's particularly strong at teaching students to read diagrams, pull meaning from visual data, and articulate their reasoning clearly, since those skills overlap heavily with his arts training. His 1560 SAT confirms the analytical horsepower behind the creative background.

Studying philosophy at the graduate level means Ben spends his days doing exactly what science asks students to do — constructing arguments from evidence, testing whether conclusions actually follow from premises, and poking holes in reasoning that looks solid on the surface. His 33 ACT confirms he can handle the data interpretation and quantitative demands of science material, and his English background makes him especially useful when students need to write clear lab reports or explain experimental results in their own words.

Linguistics training at NYU sharpened Naama's ability to break complex systems into patterns and rules — a skill that maps directly onto how science asks students to classify, predict, and explain natural phenomena. She's especially effective at helping students decode the dense vocabulary in science textbooks, since dissecting Latin and Greek roots is second nature to someone who studies language for a living. Her psychology coursework also means she can teach research design and the scientific method from firsthand experience.
