Enzyme kinetics, metabolic pathways, protein structure — biochemistry sits at the intersection of two subjects David studied formally, with a bachelor's in chemistry and graduate-level exposure to biomolecular engineering. He digs into mechanisms like glycolysis and the citric acid cycle by connecting each step's chemistry to its biological purpose, so students retain the logic instead of just the diagram. That approach has earned him a 4.9 student rating.

Enzyme kinetics, metabolic pathways, protein structure — biochemistry sits at the intersection of biology and chemistry where neither discipline alone is enough. Macklin tackles these topics in medical school every day, from glycolysis regulation to amino acid chemistry, and he unpacks reaction mechanisms by connecting each step to a physiological consequence students can actually visualize.
This is Kirby's home turf. She earned her B.S. in Biochemistry from the University of Michigan, where she dug into everything from amino acid structure and protein folding to metabolic pathway regulation and enzyme kinetics. Whether a student is wrestling with the citric acid cycle or trying to make sense of Michaelis-Menten plots, Kirby unpacks the logic behind the biology and the chemistry simultaneously.
Enzyme kinetics, amino acid structures, metabolic pathways — biochemistry demands that students hold dozens of interconnected details in their heads at once. Ray's pre-med curriculum at the University of Michigan put him through rigorous biochemistry coursework, and he unpacks complex reaction mechanisms by linking each step to a biological function students can visualize.
As a fourth-year medical student, Gurbani lives in biochemistry daily — enzyme kinetics, metabolic pathways, protein structure-function relationships. She connects each reaction mechanism to a clinical scenario, so concepts like glycolysis or amino acid catabolism become memorable stories rather than disconnected diagrams to cram before an exam.
I am eternally grateful! I minored in Chemistry after getting interested in the inner workings of organic chemistry. While going to college I earned money by tutoring classes I had already taken. I also offered "supplemental instruction" which were informal classroom question and answer sessions. I worked in a research lab after earning an undergraduate research fellowship and explored Physiology at the School of Medicine. Then went on to study Toxicology at the University of Wisconsin, Madison. While there a decision appeared clear between focusing on research or teaching. I like teaching better. I truly enjoy spreading knowledge about Biology and Chemistry and finding fun ways to introduce people to these (often difficult) subjects.
Enzyme kinetics, metabolic pathways, protein structure — biochemistry demands that students think simultaneously about chemistry and biology, which is exactly how Nathaniel trained. His degree in biochemistry and his MCAT preparation mean he can walk through everything from Michaelis-Menten plots to amino acid properties with the depth a college-level course requires.
Enzyme kinetics, metabolic pathways, amino acid chemistry — biochemistry sits right at the intersection of Alex's Bio-Organic Chemistry training. He teaches students to trace the logic of each pathway, connecting molecular structure to biological function so that something like the citric acid cycle becomes a series of predictable chemical transformations rather than an overwhelming diagram to memorize.
Enzyme kinetics, metabolic pathways, protein folding — biochemistry sits at the intersection of biology and chemistry, and Natasha lives at exactly that intersection as a chemical and biomolecular engineering graduate student at MIT. She unpacks reaction mechanisms and molecular interactions by encouraging students to talk through each step out loud, turning dense pathway diagrams into narratives that actually stick.
Enzyme kinetics, metabolic pathways, protein structure — biochemistry demands that students hold chemistry and biology in their heads simultaneously, which is exactly what medical school trains you to do daily. Jamie is currently at Sidney Kimmel Medical College and brings firsthand fluency with topics like Michaelis-Menten kinetics, amino acid chemistry, and the regulation of glycolysis and the citric acid cycle. He breaks down dense pathway diagrams into step-by-step logic that actually makes sense.
Preparing for medical school at UT Houston while finishing a chemistry degree at Rice means Asad has been living in biochemistry from both sides — the rigorous organic and physical chemistry foundations and the biological systems they plug into. He's especially sharp on the MCAT-relevant intersections, like how enzyme mechanisms tie back to organic reaction logic or how metabolic pathway regulation connects to thermodynamic principles. Rated 4.7 by students.
Enzyme kinetics, metabolic pathways, protein structure — biochemistry asks students to think across chemistry and biology simultaneously, which is exactly what Saniya's neuroscience and chemistry training prepared her for. She unpacks complex topics like Michaelis-Menten kinetics or amino acid properties by linking molecular behavior to biological function, making dense material more intuitive. Her continued coursework in physiology and histology keeps these connections sharp.
Having worked in biochemical laboratories alongside his dual bachelor's degrees — including one in biochemistry — and his architecture studies at Columbia, Andrew brings a rare structural intuition to topics like protein folding and macromolecular assembly. He teaches metabolic pathways by building them up from their organic chemistry foundations, so students see each reaction as a logical next step rather than an isolated arrow on a diagram. Rated 4.9 by students.
Two years as an Organic Chemistry Laboratory TA at the college level gave Maha the kind of mechanistic fluency that makes biochemistry's toughest material — reaction cascades in metabolic pathways, enzyme active-site chemistry, the logic behind cofactor requirements — click into place rather than blur together. Now a graduate student at Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health with a dual background in chemistry and biology, she connects the organic chemistry driving each biochemical transformation to its broader physiological relevance. Rated 5.0 by students.
Matt's graduate work in human nutrition required him to trace every major metabolic pathway from the molecular level up — how macronutrients get broken down, shuttled through the citric acid cycle, and ultimately converted to usable energy. That nutritional biochemistry lens means he teaches topics like lipid metabolism and amino acid catabolism with a constant eye on physiological context, making reaction sequences feel purposeful rather than arbitrary. Holds a 5.0 rating.
Enzyme kinetics, metabolic pathways, and protein structure all demand a student who can think across chemistry and biology simultaneously — which is exactly what Aleeza's biology degree and MCAT preparation trained her to do. She unpacks topics like Michaelis-Menten kinetics and amino acid chemistry by tying molecular details to the bigger biological picture. Students studying for upper-level biochemistry exams or the MCAT get someone who recently mastered this material herself.
Studying biochemistry at Penn as part of a pre-health track, Shayan lives in the world of enzyme kinetics, metabolic pathways, and protein structure daily. He breaks down dense topics like the citric acid cycle or amino acid chemistry using visual analogies and step-by-step logic that make the connections between reactions stick long after the session ends.
Enzyme kinetics, metabolic pathways, and protein structure all demand a kind of thinking that sits right at the intersection of biology and chemistry — exactly where Jhonatan's neuroscience training lives. He unpacks topics like Michaelis-Menten kinetics and amino acid chemistry by connecting molecular details to the larger biological question of why a cell needs this reaction in the first place. Rated 5.0 by students.
