Award-Winning Microbiology Tutors serving Providence, RI

...College in Spring 2018. I'm currently in graduate school to become a pharmacist - I'm in my first year of the PharmD program at Northeastern University. As you can probably guess, my area of expertise is the sciences - specifically Biology and Chemistry. However, I am also able to teach other subjects such as math through high school levels, and standardized test prep (SAT, ACT, PCAT, etc). I have been tutoring with Varsity Tutors since...

...and I graduated with a BS in Chemical Engineering from the University of Massachusetts. During my studies, I spent a year tutoring student-athletes in Chemistry, Physics, Math and Engineering. Earlier in my schooling, I spent two years as a camp counselor and a year regularly babysitting, so mentoring has always been a part of my life. I also have experience as a part of the Best Buddies organization during high school, and so I have...

...I didn't do it alone. I had tutors help me every step of the way. Not only did they help me to boost my grades, but they provided me with academic confidence and mentoring, all of which made me realize that my greatest goals could be a tangible reality. Now I couldn't be happier in my career as a surgeon in training. I have ever since been "paying it forward," educating high school and college...

...research lab for three years, as well as full-time in a hospital in Boston for over a year now, in both clinical and research settings. My tutoring experience started a few years ago when I taught a nutrition class to children in their early teens, teaching them the basics of nutrition, such as picking healthy ingredients and avoiding processed foods. Since then, I have been a part-time tutor, and I look forward to meeting lots...

...I am a recent recipient of a Bachelor of Science in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology from the University of Massachusetts Amherst, and is now a master degree candidate for the Public Policy program at the University of Massachusetts Amherst. I can teach various math and science courses in middle-, high-school, and college levels! I have many past tutor experiences and I hope that I can be a great resource to my students.

I am a very flexible, compassionate, and accommodating tutor. I am a gamer and a geek and I relate well to bullied kids and kids who are not doing well in school. I have a lot of empathy for struggling students and strive to be clear, concise, helpful, and validating. My favorite subject to tutor is English and everything to do with it. My hobbies are writing, drawing, reading, and gaming.... My teaching philosophy is to...

...I am a rising senior, as well as a bioengineering and premed student at the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth. I can speak Spanish and Arabic, tutor in writing, speaking, Spanish, and multiple levels of math and science. I love to swim, fence (yes I am a fencer that fences with a sword), jog, hike and paint in my free time. I am an easygoing tutor that both loves to challenge myself and challenge my students...

...and have some insight into how American public education is designed. Working in many neuroscience laboratories in hospitals and universities around the Boston area and Dartmouth Medical School has given me a very good understanding of the brain. For about three years, I was a substitute teacher in the Mascoma Regional School District in Enfield NH working with 5th 12th graders. I had so much fun in the classroom, interacting with the children on projects...

...Biology, and a Doctorate in Biochemistry. I enjoy teaching, training, and tutoring students of all levels in Math and Science. Although each student is different, I treat every case with equal conviction and effort from the most humble to the highest aspiring goals. Boredom and frustration are the source of nearly every student's struggles. Consistently my students say I clarify the most complex problems, transforming impossibly tedious and confounding coursework into an exciting and manageable...

...molecular engineering laboratory at The University of Chicago and worked there for two years. That lab specializes in making biomaterials for cancer therapeutics and water purification membranes. Currently I work at MIT in the Koch Institute for Integrative Cancer Research. My current project is focused on developing immunotherapies to treat early stage tumors. Both in the classroom and in lab, I have always been more than willing to help others with their assignments or troubleshooting...

...was easily accepted into dental school, which was one of the best times of my life. I learned from experts and was challenged by professors who gave me a chance to assist with research that spawned the writing of three additional papers and molded my career trajectory. In partnership with two fellow dental students, I took on a project to create Iran's first system for treatment of cleft lip and palate that became highly regarded...

...my M.S. in Biomedical Sciences. During my time in college and my master's program I worked part-time as a substitute teacher focusing on STEM, math, and small-group settings. I also worked as a long-term substitute covering high school algebra and pre-algebra. I also was a small group tutor for biochemistry at TUSM during my master's program. I continued on to University of Massachusetts Chan Medical School where I am currently a fourth year student. I...

...created and ran my own internet website businesses. I also worked as a dental assistant in hopes of one day becoming a dentist. I love helping people and making them smile, especially if they are having a difficult time learning a specific concept or idea. My friends and family always come to me for help with science and math problems because I'm patient, fun, funny, understanding, and know how to explain topics in a wide...

...I have personally taken many of the important exams needed to get in to college (ACT, SAT and IB) and so can very much understand what students are going through. I primarily tutor biology for high school and first year college students, as well as high school and college Spanish. I believe in letting the students explain the areas they are having difficulty with and working through examples together, before allowing them to show me...

...tutored many students in a variety of subjects - algebra, calculus, psychology, physiology, physics, biology, and statistics. My teaching style targets each unique student's learning style and way of analyzing. That is my first targeted observation before I can truly begin tutoring with any true impact. I have spent the last two years out of school managing an organic farm and directing product and systems design for a farm-tech startup out of Boston. I am...

...research with the Belfer Institute at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute after graduating with a B.S. in Biology and a minor in French from Allegheny College.

My experience as a teacher spans from my responsibilities as a graduate teaching fellow in Instructional Biology at Boston University and my role as a research mentor of undergraduate students. I firmly believe that an effective...

...but am originally from Orlando, Florida. I resided in Gainesville, Florida while I was getting my degree in Nutritional Science at the University of Florida. After graduating, I moved to Austin, Texas and completed a year of AmeriCorps. As an AmeriCorps member I was responsible for leading an after school science program, an opportunity that allowed me to create hands-on creative lessons and gain more experience tutoring and teaching. I tutored as an undergrad, and...

...enjoy, for me that is teaching. Originally my work focused on assisting students with classes I had previously taken while attending Assumption College in Worcester, Massachusetts. I found an honest excitement helping an individual grapple and ultimately grasp complex subjects pertaining to Chemistry and Biology. There is a personal reward and a level of pride that comes with helping someone learn. This feeling pushed me to seek other teaching opportunities. During my final year in...

Teaching is my passion. When I am not tutoring for Varsity Tutors, I work in medical research. I love the idea of helping patients feel better and especially kids. If I had to say something about my outlook, it is that I am thankful for what I do, privileged to be part of so many lives, and hopeful that my skills will make a difference.

...minors in Jazz studies and Philosophy. I have been tutoring students in an unofficial capacity since high school. When I became an undergraduate I wanted to continue to help students, so I started a tutoring program for underclassmen who were struggling in their science courses. Outside of this, I volunteered my time to help students who were struggling in the upper level courses I was taking. I love science and medicine and I love teaching...
