Your first hour with any tutor is always 100% refundable!

I recently received my Ph.D. in biomedical science from Baylor University, and I am looking to supplement my income through quality tutoring services. I have extensive experience in both biology and chemistry subjects, ranging from high school biology/chemistry as well as AP courses, through undergraduate upper and lower level biology and chemistry courses. I am a tutor for subjects ranging from introductory biology to molecular biology, biochemistry, and immunology. I am now a part time adjunct professor at a local university.

I expect a lot out of my tutoring students. I am taking the time to let you take advantage of my expertise, and you are paying for the time: therefore I expect you to come prepared! Know where your problems lie and bring problems to work or specific topics to cover. You are only going to improve through study and practice. It is not my responsibility to pass a course or achieve a certain grade for you: that is your responsibility, but I am here to help you get there!

I give you the keys to help you study more efficiently and effectively for the subject we are working on, and spend a lot of time during the session explaining concepts in terms that are easier to understand and that are easier to relate to. I also like to help students understand where a concept fits in the big picture and how it will be important to them in the future.

If you choose to contact me for torturing services, you can expect a prompt reply.

Don't wait until your situation is dire! Get help when you first start to struggle! While I will certainly tutor you in an 'emergency' situations, these will do you the least amount of good and I'll essentially be helping you 'cram'. That being said, I am well versed in a variety of situations that you might fall into. I can guarantee that you'll get more than you pay for!

Fee negotiable. Will work as private tutor with weekly lessons, or as one time service. You MUST give me advance information on the topics to be covered. Will travel 10 miles for no extra fee, but may add travel fee for 20+ miles. Free most nights. Please include in your email specific areas where you need help for a faster reply.

Homeschool:

Biology

I have taught, as a co-teacher of record, introductory biology at the college level. As a TA, I taught lab sections for four years and was a Supplemental Instruction leader for General Biology 2 for three years. I love the subject and am more than proficient in all aspects of the course. This is my primary area of tutoring expertise.

Chemistry

I had grades that were over 100% in both of my introductory chemistry courses as an undergraduate, including the lab portions. I enjoy chemistry, and although it has been a while since I studied it outright, I use many aspects of these courses in my day-to-day work as an Immunologist. I tutored this subject for two years as an undergraduate. This subject is always easy for me to pick back up! I especially enjoy tutoring this subject in groups.

Biochemistry

I have tutored students for both dental biochemistry and biochemistry courses offered at four-year universities. I took this course myself and did well. I have in depth knowledge of many aspects of biochemistry because of my research.

Ecology

I took two ecology courses and can help with ecology sections of general biology or an ecology course at the undergraduate level. I loved this class, and taught the ecology section of intro biology more than 8 times over the course of my teaching assistantship.

Genetics

My emphasis as an undergrad biology major was genetics, and I have made A's in all of the following college courses: Genetics, Molecular genetics, human genetics, molecular and medical biotechnology, virology, and immunology. All of which are either genetics courses or have a heavy genetics component. I was a teaching assistant for genetics labs for two years, and tutored this subject while in college for two years. During my doctoral degree I used a lot of this knowledge on a daily basis. I was... Read More

Microbiology

While earning my doctorate in immunology I have been exposed to the vast majority of the material that this subject encompasses. My undergraduate thesis advisor taught the microbiology course and I worked in her microbiology lab for two years. My undergraduate thesis was a combination of two subjects, genetics and microbiology, studying bacterial source tracking. In my current field I am expected to be familiar with all classes of microorganisms, their functions and interactions with humans and... Read More

Organic Chemistry

I earned A's in Organic Chemistry I and II while an undergrad. After completing the courses, I then tutored students in these subjects for two years. While in the course, I developed a great working relationship with the professor, and we would often work problems together. This allowed me to be able to understand the subject very well and have quite a lot of practice with problems, as well as understand the concepts behind the problems. My final year as an undergraduate we did a research project... Read More
