Andrew
BA Washington University in St. Louis
14+ Years Tutoring

An Environmental Biology degree means Andrew didn't just study biology in a classroom — he applied ecology, genetics, and cellular processes to real systems like watersheds, species interactions, and field research. That applied perspective makes him especially effective at explaining topics like photosynthesis, DNA replication, and evolutionary mechanisms in ways that go beyond rote definitions. He treats every concept as a story with cause and effect, which tends to make the material stick.
