"Whether you need help with biology courses, or specific guidance with test prep, or you just want to dive deeper into biology, I’m here to help you achieve these goals. My tutoring focuses on college level introduction to biology, cell biology, molecular biology, microbiology, immunology, biology papers and AP biology.

I am a scientist and former professor with 20+ years of experience studying and researching biology. I have 12+ years of teaching experience in classroom settings, with small groups, and with one-on-one tutoring. I started teaching as a graduate student and then taught as a professor and research supervisor for several years. I have worked on three continents and with people from diverse cultural backgrounds. As an anecdote from my teaching experience, I taught microbiology and immunology in Massachusetts in early 2020. I led 52 students in acquiring scientific writing skills and in-depth knowledge of bacteriology, virology, and immunology. During the semester, COVID-19 necessitated everyone to move off campus, so I adapted all course content to an online format.

I bring 14+ years of expertise in research techniques, including recombinant DNA technology, RNA biology, and gene regulation. Most recently, I worked as a scientist and director for a molecular diagnostics company, giving me a lot of insight into the biotechnology industry. The best part of my role was mentoring young scientists and helping them succeed with their career goals.

While I love research, my true passion is presenting and teaching. I have presented science at more than 20 national and international conferences and won presentation awards. I consistently received excellent teaching reviews from my students. I specialize in making complex biological material easy to grasp by listening to your learning needs and by telling a story that makes sense." less...
