As a TA, I directed lab exercises, ran review sessions and created worksheets and practice problems. As a tutor, I help students learn about their own learning style because not every student learns the same. I think it is important for the student to interact including flash cards, practice problems, diagrams, pictures or other...

Outside of class, I enjoy reading, movies, volleyball, watching college basketball, and socializing in general.... There are no stupid...

I've always known I wanted to teach. Once I received my undergraduate degree in Psychology/Neuroscience, I decided to pursue a Masters degree in Education. I love working with classrooms full of students, but I also love working with people one-on-one.

Anatomy & Physiology Tutoring FAQ
While anatomy and physiology are usually taught as a single course, the two topics have unique approaches when it comes to studying a living organism. When studying anatomy, you will focus on the structure of the biological systems. When studying physiology, you will be focusing on the function of the various components and how they work together. Each offers further specialization at different levels. Whether you are struggling with anatomy or physiology, or just with the course as a whole, Varsity Tutors can help you find a tutor who can assist you in working toward a better understanding.
Within the United States, anatomy and physiology courses may be offered at the graduate or undergraduate level. A basic level is also included as an option in some high schools. There are numerous careers that require a background in anatomy and physiology, including physician, massage therapist, athletic trainer, and biomedical researcher.
Most students who find themselves in an anatomy and physiology class have an interest in some form of medical care. Some of the best medical research schools include Harvard University in Boston, MA; Stanford University in Stanford, CA; and Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, MD. Some of the best primary care schools include University of Washington in Seattle, WA; the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill in Chapel Hill, NC; and the University of California-San Francisco in San Francisco, CA. Even if you have no interest in entering a medical career field, anatomy and physiology can provide you with a solid foundation from which to understand exactly how life works at a fundamental level.
Your personal anatomy and physiology tutor can help break down your textbook and lectures into more easily accessible lessons. For example, each chapter in a textbook can usually be divided into three or four mini-lessons that make it easier to retain the information. There are also usually study tools provided by the textbook that students may overlook, but that your tutor may leverage for building your mastery of the subject. Your tutor may also help you create flashcards and other memory-boosting aids for material that involves memorization, such as learning the names of the muscles, bones, and blood vessels.
Anatomy and physiology courses tend to be challenging, not just because of the type of material covered but also because of the volume of material given. As you work with your private tutor on your anatomy and physiology goals, you will also have the opportunity to optimize academic skills that can be applied to other fields of study. These include proven studying tactics, powerful test-taking strategies, writing and research tips, and time management skills that will help you create a productive process for completing assigned tasks in a timely manner.
The Varsity Tutors live learning platform gives you the power to book private tutoring sessions with your anatomy and physiology tutor online or in person. This gives you the flexibility to meet your tutor at a time and location that is the best fit for your personal schedule and specific academic needs. To get started, give Varsity Tutors a call today.
