Award-Winning Physiology Tutors serving Waltham, MA

...SAT, SSAT, AP Biology, AP Physics, and AP Chemistry for 2 years. I love teaching students HOW to learn, not just WHAT to learn. I always emphasize hard work - because you always get what you work for. I don't care about natural intelligence, because trying your best and being persistent is the key to learning and improvement. My favorite part of teaching is seeing the student understanding a concept for the first time.

...explore their knowledge and capabilities so that together we can identify the things that are giving them trouble, and try to address them. I recognize that to be a tutor one has to be flexible and open to connect with the student first, to listen and figure out what things I can actually help them with. It is always my goal to help students understand concepts and problem solving strategies themselves, so that they can...

I believe a great tutor not only teaches the material, but also helps students to become more effective learners. I often provide real-world examples to help students get excited about concepts. Also, I use practice problems so that my students can see their own improvement and gain...

...Sciences. As a result, I found a niche and a passion in teaching in the science modalities. Over the course of the next couple of years, I was a TA in Organic Chemistry, and I was employed by the university to tutor students in Physics, Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, Biology and Biochemistry. Now, I am a Doctor of Medicine candidate at Harvard Medical School, and I tutor 1st year medical students in Anatomy. I also write...

...at Brandeis University in Waltham, MA where I study Biology and Public Health. After college, I hope to attend medical school and become an OB/GYN. School was always challenging for me. I had poor reading comprehension and I really struggled with math. No matter how hard I worked, sometimes the material just would not click. I worked with my teachers and tutors who helped me overcome many of my learning barriers. I have been tutoring...

...Biology, as well as Cell and Molecular Biology. During my postdoctoral training I have mentored numerous undergraduate and graduate students, teaching them basics of cell biology and variety of laboratory techniques. My students received scholarships for Ph.D. programs in prestigious universities across the United States, such as University of Pittsburg, University of Utah, Brown and Northwestern Universities. Beyond teaching University students, I used to work with high school students, leading an extra-curriculum club in biology,...

I realize learning new information takes hard work and is often very challenging, but my experience as a Biomedical Science Masters student at The Commonwealth Medical College and a biology major at Wake Forest University has taught me that the best way to learn is to place yourself in a fun environment. As a tutor, I share this outlook on learning with my students by creating an engaging and gratifying environment conducive to...

...environment of a busy college learning center. Through it all, I've been able to hone my teaching craft, and also develop an appreciation for working with people to help them achieve their goals. Being able to work with people in the context of subjects I love is, therefore, a dream come true. I plan for teaching to remain an important part of my life for a long time to come. In the midst of tutoring...

In my experience, helping students and seeing them succeed after their hard work is very rewarding for both myself, the student and the family. Not only do I seek to help students achieve...

...my toolkit whether the discipline is history, literature, ethics, biology, pathology, technology, archaeology, or anthropology. The last two semesters I have functioned in the role of a Teaching Assistant for an introduction course to pathophysiology at the University of Texas at Dallas. Through volunteer service with places such as the Richardson Boy's and Girl's club I have had exposure to homework assistance for many different age ranges. Depending on the subject there are several approaches...

...it can be a challenging topic. I believe that my natural aptitude for it comes from a deep and genuine interest in the subject. I recognize the grave importance of instilling scientific knowledge in our future generations, so it is my goal to help students overcome any struggles or intimidation of the subject.

...I can get you the test results you need to succeed because I went through the exams myself and performed well. The first time I took the SAT I actually wasn't satisfied with my score, so I spent 2 months working hard to get my score to where I wanted it to be. The second time I took the exam I saw a 200-point increase. Previously, I have had experience teaching the SSAT and the...

...through the medical school application process I would be more than happy to review resumes and applications with you as well or simply discuss what to expect if you're interested in either field. Outside of my academic interests I'd say I'm a very laid-back and friendly guy. I've played soccer and hockey my entire life and am an accomplished skier and surfer as well. I was an Art minor in college and like to draw...

...Biomedical Science. I have a dual degree from Franklin & Marshall College in Biochemistry and Neuroscience. I have been tutoring for the past 6 years and really enjoy teaching.

My strategy is not to tell students the...

...years of school and standardized tests along the way! But I didn't do it alone. I had tutors help me every step of the way.

Now I couldn't be happier in my career as a surgeon in training. I have ever...

...within the Rutgers Future Scholar Mentorship program. These experiences shaped my principled and conceptual tutoring style. I believe that conceptual understanding is the most important factor in determining success in a subject. If a student has a conceptual understanding of a subject's foundational principles, they can apply them to many different, and more complex, problems rather than just the ones they have already encountered. Since graduating, I worked in Clinical Informatics until completing my obligatory...
