"OVERVIEW -- Too long, didn't read? No worries, look here :)

Hello, I'm Marketta! I have 8+ years of experience studying, tutoring, and teaching in the life sciences. My extensive years of dedicated study make me highly qualified in teaching the material to students of all levels, yet because of my recent graduation, I'm still very familiar with and can relate to the challenging landscape of high school and college life my students are often navigating. With multiple years under my belt, I'm very patient in my work, creating a welcoming, non-judgmental environment for my students to learn. I like to make each session a collaborative effort. As I cater to your unique learning style, we decide what your goals/takeaways are for that session. I love working with awesome people and making the tutoring experience as fun as possible! That way we not only both have an enjoyable time, but also so that my students are learning in the most conducive environment.

WHAT MY STUDENTS TAKEAWAY FROM WORKING WITH ME:

Biology can be overwhelming to study as it is a gigantic subject! And it can require a lot of memorization. With my technique I break down complex concepts so that my students have a better grasp of the smaller parts. We then use those building blocks to achieve a greater mastery of the material, which my students can apply towards any kind of assignment or exam thrown their way. My goal is to teach you to problem solve like a teacher does. I've found that once you can explain it to me in your own words the comprehension tends to stick, and you're ready for any question!

WHY I LOVE TUTORING:

Teaching and tutoring students in Bio and Chem are among my favorite. So much of the curriculum applies to understanding our physical world, those magical, hidden everyday phenomena, and even our own biology! Putting the classroom content into perspective encourages true understanding and retention of the material.
