Enzyme kinetics, metabolic pathways, protein structure — biochemistry sits at the intersection of biology and chemistry, and Andrew teaches both. His psychology background also gives him a unique angle on neurochemistry topics like neurotransmitter synthesis and signal transduction that many science-only tutors gloss over.

I'm not tutoring or buried in my textbooks, you will either find me rock climbing at the Triangle Rock Club, playing Ultimate Frisbee, working on my car, or enjoying the great outdoors (beaches, mountains, forests--you name it, I love it). On rainy weekends I enjoy tinkering with computers and old electronics, playing Pokemon, or picking at my guitar.
I am an interdisciplinary educator with an Ed.M. from the Harvard Graduate School of Education and a B.A. from Dartmouth College. My background is primarily in integrated arts learning and museum education and I specialize in visual arts, history and art history, and object-based learning. In all subjects, I take a creative, inquiry-based and learner-centered approach, designing opportunities for each unique individual to meet their learning goals.
I am a recent graduate from a masters program in biostatistics at Columbia University. I received my Bachelor of Arts in biological sciences, with a focus in neurobiology at Northwestern University. In August, I will be starting a doctoral program in biostatistics at NYU. I was a teaching assistant at Columbia University in my department and also have tutored graduate students and undergraduates privately as well. My primary areas of tutoring are math and statistics coursework in addition to math sections on standardized tests such as the GRE and GMAT. I am very passionate about helping students feel more confident and excited about math. In my spare time, I enjoy running, playing piano, and spending time with friends and family.
I am a graduate of Wesleyan University, where I received my Bachelor of Arts in Sociology with High Honors. With eight years of experience working in education, I've tutored students in math, science, history, and English, as well as helped students prepare for standardized tests. I've guided adults towards passing the US Citizenship Exam and taught English in India, where I lived for six months. Whenever I work with a student I personalize the lessons to fit their particular learning style, since I know every student is unique and having the right fit can make all the difference in making learning fun and effective. My strengths are tutoring the social sciences and humanities, as well as making math and standardized tests approachable to students that normally don't like those subjects. In my spare time I like traveling, spending time in the outdoors (climbing & backpacking), meditation, and playing soccer. Next fall I will be beginning my PhD in Education at Harvard University.
I am a junior Mechanical Engineering major at Yale, and I hope to become a Naval Aviator after college. I am also a varsity sailor, and enjoy playing music with friends when I can get some free time. I have been tutoring my fellow students throughout my entire academic career, and I would best describe my tutoring style as one that adapts to each students' needs. For example, I have always tried to frame questions in a different way so that the student can better understand the question. Some students need visual representations of numbers and systems to understand them, and others benefit more by understanding the concepts behind each formula. I prefer to tutor in math and physics, and especially with real world application problems. I hope to help students improve their standardized test scores and their understanding of the math and sciences so that they can achieve their academic goals!
I am a graduate of Washington University in St Louis, where I received my Bachelor of Arts in History with minors in Humanities and Anthropology. Since graduation, I have worked as a tutor, teacher, and director of tutors at a charter public middle school in Boston. During this time I also received my Masters in Mild to Moderate Disabilities from Simmons College. I have worked extensively with students with a range of abilities, including students with specific learning disabilities, emotional impairments, dyslexia, and ADHD. My teaching experience has given me a deep understanding of the knowledge and habits essential to academic success and has given me the opportunity to hone a variety of strategies that ensure students at each level can achieve their academic goals. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, my favorite ones are Reading, Elementary/Middle School Math, History, and Test Prep. In my experience, tutoring is the most rewarding when a student has that "aha!" moment and achieves a new level of understanding and confidence in his/her abilities. I am a firm believer in the transformative power of education, and I see my role to be that of a facilitator and coach who is there to help the student reach his/her goals through individualized support and rigorous practice. In my free time, I enjoy reading, running, practicing my Spanish, and discovering new music. I am also an avid traveler and just got back from a 3 month trip to South America. I look forward to the opportunity to work with you!
I am a rising sophomore at Harvard College and am about to declare as a Mechanical Engineering concentrator, working towards a Bachelor of Science degree. I've always enjoyed sharing my knowledge with my peers and those around me and have done so in both formal and informal settings. I've been a tutor for both Math and Spanish programs in high school and enjoyed the strides I made with students. I am willing to tutor any subject I have a background in, but am strong in mathematics, the sciences, Spanish, history, writing, and ACT prep. I enjoy teaching mathematics most due to the joy I can see in children once they master a topic and can answer even pointed questions meant to stump them, and maybe even put their knowledge to real world use. As a tutor, I like to give a strong foundation to orient my student, and then gradually grant them more freedom and independence until they can feel themselves grasp the concept, pointing out pitfalls or common errors along the way; teachers who used these methods on me always left the most lasting impressions. Outside of my studies, I really enjoy listening to music, both old favorites and new interests, reading classics, and gaming/playing basketball with my friends.
I'm Solange - a recent graduate from Harvard where I studied Sociology & Women's Studies. I've been tutoring for eight years now, and have worked with a wide range of ages and in a wide range of subjects. Some of my specialties are college prep/test taking II worked in the admissions office on campus); social sciences; and literature/writing.
I am proud to be a part of Varsity Tutors! I am originally from San Antonio, TX; I completed my undergraduate education at Rice University in Houston where I received a bachelor's degree in Biochemistry and Cell Biology. Currently, I am in my second year of medical school at Baylor College of Medicine.
I am an aspiring applied mathematician, with particular interest in image processing and climate science. I graduated in May 2017 from Washington University in St. Louis with a bachelor's in physics and mathematics, and am beginning a PhD program in September 2017 at the University of Chicago in Computational and Applied Mathematics. I've tutored introductory physics students for three years and enjoyed it thoroughly, as a chance to help other students while revisiting fundamental concepts to enhance my own knowledge. I'm eager to continue reaching out and helping students of math and physics to succeed and, furthermore, to appreciate the beauty and power of these subjects.
I am exploring my creativity by pursuing a double major in Asian Languages and Cultures with a focus in Korean, studying abroad in South Korea as a Benjamin A. Gilman Scholar, leading workshops that teach 3D printing and CAD for undergraduate students as the president of 3D4E, advocating for the first-generation and low-income student community as the Outreach Chair of the Quest+ Scholars Network, and getting involved with the Society of Women Engineers' outreach committee. I currently hold a work-study position as an administrative clerical aide in the Institute of Sustainability and Energy at Northwestern and was an undergraduate researcher in the John Rogers Lab. As I look forward with aspirations of applying to graduate school, areas of research in biomedical engineering and biotechnology that I am particularly interested in include biomaterials, pharmaceuticals, and drug delivery systems. Outside of the classroom, I enjoy learning on my own and sharing my experience and knowledge with my peers and other students. I hope to make use of my experiences with academics and learning in high school and so far in my undergraduate career in order to effectively tutor students who may be experiencing the same struggles in learning that I also experienced.

Frequently Asked Questions
Biochemistry courses usually focus on the chemical processes within living organisms, including the structure and function of proteins, carbohydrates, lipids, and nucleic acids. Students typically study enzyme kinetics, metabolic pathways like glycolysis and the citric acid cycle, photosynthesis, cellular respiration, and how these processes connect to energy production in cells. Many courses also cover DNA replication, protein synthesis, and basic molecular biology. The emphasis is on understanding how chemistry directly explains biological functions at the molecular level.
Biochemistry requires students to visualize abstract molecular structures and understand how microscopic chemical reactions drive large-scale biological processes—which is challenging without strong foundation in both chemistry and biology. Many students struggle with balancing chemical equations, unit conversions, and metabolic pathway diagrams. A common misconception is trying to memorize pathways instead of understanding the logic behind them. Personalized tutoring helps students connect these concepts by breaking down complex pathways step-by-step, using visual models and real-world examples to build genuine understanding rather than reliance on memorization.
Biochemistry labs require students to apply theoretical knowledge to hands-on experiments, which can feel overwhelming without strong conceptual foundations. Tutors can help you understand the purpose behind each lab procedure, predict outcomes based on biochemical principles, and troubleshoot when results don't match expectations. They can also help you develop scientific reasoning skills—learning how to design experiments, control variables, and interpret data—rather than just following recipe-style instructions. This deeper understanding makes lab work more meaningful and helps you develop the critical thinking skills that science education aims to build.
Biochemical equations can feel overwhelming because they often involve complex molecules, multiple reactants and products, and the need to balance atoms while also understanding the biological significance of the reaction. Rather than relying on trial-and-error memorization, the key is understanding the underlying chemistry—learning systematic approaches to balancing equations and recognizing patterns in how biochemical reactions work. Tutors can teach you strategies for tackling unfamiliar equations, show you how to break down complex reactions into manageable steps, and help you see why balancing matters for understanding energy flow and molecular transformations in cells.
Varsity Tutors connects Atlanta students with expert tutors who have strong backgrounds in both chemistry and biology and can explain how these disciplines intersect in biochemistry. When you reach out, you can discuss your specific challenges—whether that's metabolic pathways, enzyme kinetics, lab preparation, or exam review—and get matched with a tutor whose expertise and teaching style fit your needs. The personalized 1-on-1 instruction means your tutor can focus on your individual learning gaps rather than a one-size-fits-all approach, making your study time more efficient and effective.
Yes. The AP Biology exam heavily emphasizes biochemistry concepts, particularly cellular respiration, photosynthesis, enzyme function, and protein synthesis. Tutoring can help you build a solid understanding of these core topics and practice applying biochemical knowledge to complex scenarios and lab-based questions on the exam. Tutors can also help you develop the scientific reasoning and analytical skills the AP exam assesses, teaching you how to interpret experimental data, make predictions based on biochemical principles, and communicate your thinking clearly. With focused preparation, personalized instruction can significantly strengthen your performance on biochemistry-related questions.
Biochemistry is fundamentally about understanding concepts, though this is easier said than done when there are so many pathways and processes to learn. The most successful approach is building genuine understanding of why reactions occur, how they're connected, and what purposes they serve—then the details become easier to retain and apply. Many students find that when they truly understand glycolysis or the citric acid cycle, they can reconstruct pathways and solve novel problems rather than relying on rote memorization. Tutors emphasize conceptual understanding by using visual models, real-world analogies, and strategic questioning that helps you build mental frameworks for organizing biochemical knowledge.
