Cognitive science is essentially psychology's close cousin, so Adam didn't just read about concepts like classical conditioning, cognitive biases, and neural plasticity — he studied them deeply at Rice. That academic grounding lets him explain the why behind psychological theories instead of just the what. He's particularly sharp on the biological and cognitive chapters that students often find most challenging.

Cognitive Studies at Vanderbilt sits at the intersection of psychology, neuroscience, and philosophy of mind — so Vy doesn't just know introductory psych concepts like operant conditioning or the stages of memory, she understands the deeper frameworks they come from. She unpacks research methods and experimental design in ways that make the empirical side of psychology click, not just the vocabulary. Her 5.0 rating speaks to how well that approach lands with students.

Theresa
BA Rice University
9+ Years Tutoring

Biomedical engineering at Rice requires understanding how the human body responds to stress, stimuli, and environmental variables — which overlaps more with psychology than most students expect, especially in units on biological bases of behavior, sensation, and the nervous system. Theresa uses that science-heavy background to demystify topics like neural signaling and psychophysiology, while her 5.0 rating suggests she's just as clear when the course shifts to learning theory or research methods.

I am a recent graduate from Becker College in Worcester with a B.A. in Interactive Media Design. I have previous experience tutoring middle school students for a public school system, as well as, experience teaching game design to ages 10-17 at a computer camp this past summer. My favorite thing to teach is game design because that is what I am most passionate about but I also enjoy teaching in general. I find it very rewarding to teach and help students learn, especially, when it is a subject they are not comfortable with. This is due to many students thinking that they are just unable to learn a subject that they struggle with but I believe anyone can learn anything if they have the desire and the are committed to work at it. Outside of teaching I enjoy playing games of all types, such as video games and bowling, and spending time with friends and family.
