"I graduated from Bowdoin College with a degree in Biochemistry and earned my Masters in the Art of Teaching from Clarkson University. I've been teaching high school science for the past 11 years, as well as coaching cross country and track. I hold a NY state professional teaching certification for grades 7-12. In college, I was a Division I athlete, can you guess the sport?!

I tutor a variety of subjects including AP Biology/Biology, Chemistry, Writing (grades 7-12, collegiate research papers, and lab reports), Neuroscience, English, and Biochemistry. I also have over five years experience working one-on-one with students with executive functioning challenges. I help them improve their executive functioning skills, learn active study techniques, work on time management, and utilize strategies for staying organized. My knowledge of neuroscience helps me to understand how different brains function, so I can help students learn in a way that best suits their individual learning style.

I take pride in being able to explain concepts in easy to understand ways. I help students make connections between the material and the real world so they understand why what they're learning is important. I help students learn tips and tricks to understand the root of the material, rather than just memorize ideas. I am extremely organized, and with over 10 years of teaching and tutoring experience, I know what helps students learn best!

My students love me because I am kind, patient, have a good sense of humor, and make learning active and engaging. Let me know if you'd like to learn more about what it would be like to work with me!" less...
