Michael
Certified Science Tutor
Michael
BA Rice University • Doctor of Philosophy, Physics University of Michigan
7+ Years Tutoring

Four years teaching undergraduate lab courses at the University of Michigan gave Michael a front-row seat to exactly where science students get stuck: interpreting graphs, designing controlled experiments, and connecting mathematical formulas to physical intuition. Whether the topic is energy conservation, wave behavior, or circuit analysis, he unpacks the underlying logic until the concept clicks.

Skyler
Certified Science Tutor
Skyler
MS Stanford University • BA Barnard College
8+ Years Tutoring

Skyler's academic path through Russian and Eurasian studies required mastering research methodologies across disciplines — gathering evidence, analyzing competing sources, and building defensible conclusions from incomplete data. That cross-disciplinary rigor translates well when she teaches students to work through scientific vocabulary, interpret charts, and articulate what an experiment actually proved. Her 5.0 rating suggests the approach clicks.

Martha
BA Duke University • Current Grad Student, Global Health Duke University
1+ Years Tutoring

Research in global health and psychology requires constant engagement with the scientific method — designing studies, interpreting data, and evaluating whether evidence actually supports a conclusion. Martha brings that hands-on research experience from Duke and Michigan into her science tutoring, breaking down concepts like experimental design, hypothesis testing, and data analysis so students understand the reasoning behind each step.

Megan
BA Yale University
6+ Years Tutoring

Environmental Engineering at Yale is applied science — fluid dynamics, chemistry, ecology — so Megan lives in the material she teaches. She unpacks scientific concepts by connecting them to tangible examples, whether that's explaining energy transfer through a real-world system or walking through the scientific method with a hands-on problem.

Sophia
BA Yale University
6+ Years Tutoring

Scoring a 36 on the ACT — including its Science section — required Sophia to master the skill of rapidly interpreting experimental data, conflicting viewpoints, and research summaries under pressure. She teaches those same graph-reading and data-analysis strategies to students who need to sharpen their scientific reasoning, whether for standardized tests or classroom assignments.

Suzie
BA Princeton University
1+ Years Tutoring

A chemical and biological engineering degree plus current MD/PhD work at Michigan means Suzie lives at the intersection of chemistry, biology, and physics every day. She unpacks scientific concepts — whether it's balancing equations, understanding cell respiration, or interpreting experimental data — by tying them to real mechanisms rather than asking students to memorize isolated facts.

Ruth
BA The University of Alabama • Doctor of Medicine, Alternative and Complementary Medicine and Medical Systems, General The University of Michigan
8+ Years Tutoring

A biology degree from the University of Alabama and current medical training at the University of Michigan mean Ruth can teach science the way it actually connects — linking concepts like cellular respiration to organ systems, or explaining how pH and chemical equilibria show up in real lab scenarios. She breaks down the scientific method and data interpretation skills that students need across chemistry, biology, and physical science courses.

Ajay
BA University of Michigan-Ann Arbor
8+ Years Tutoring

A biochemistry major at Michigan who has completed through Organic Chemistry II, Ajay covers science from middle school life science through college-level chemistry with genuine depth. He's especially sharp at explaining reaction mechanisms, molecular interactions, and lab reasoning — the kinds of topics where students often memorize facts but miss the underlying logic that makes them predictable.

Taylor
BA University
8+ Years Tutoring

I am a learner for life and I love sharing my knowledge with others. I have tutored middle-school students for one year and university students for two years. My focus is mainly on mathematics, chemistry, and related fields. I have degrees in both mathematics and biomedical engineering so I cover a lot of ground in the physiological sciences, computer programming, and statistics as well. Taking tests is one of my strong points and I have some killer strategies to share!

Megan
PhD Princeton University • BA University of Michigan
13+ Years Tutoring

A biology degree from the University of Michigan gave Megan hands-on experience with lab sciences, cellular biology, genetics, and ecology — plus the chemistry and physics prerequisites that come with the major. She's especially effective for students who struggle with science because they're strong verbal learners; her literature background means she can translate dense scientific concepts into clear, memorable explanations. She treats science vocabulary the same way she treats a foreign language: breaking roots, prefixes, and suffixes into a system.

Kerry
BA University of Michigan
10+ Years Tutoring

Between calculus problem sets and economics models at Michigan Ross, Kerry picked up a habit of translating abstract concepts into concrete, step-by-step logic — which is exactly what science asks students to do when they're interpreting data, tracing cause and effect, or explaining how variables interact in an experiment. Her 33 ACT composite means she handled the Science section's rapid-fire graph reading and passage analysis at a high level, and she brings that same data-literacy approach to general science tutoring.

Henry
BA Carleton College
6+ Years Tutoring

Henry's biochemistry minor at Carleton means he's actively studying science alongside computer science, giving him recent fluency in biology, chemistry, and the quantitative reasoning that ties them together. He explains scientific concepts by grounding them in real-world relevance — the approach he finds makes material stick for himself and the students he's tutored.
