Biophysics M.S. specializes in STEM

Jessica G.

I started peer tutoring math when I was in the 7th grade! Since then I have completed my Bachelors of Science in Physics from Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology (with minors in Biology, Mathematics, German, and Language & Literature) and my Masters of Science in Biophysics from the University of California, Davis.

I have experience in tutoring for family members as young as elementary school and being a teaching assistant to undergraduate students in Microbiology (UCDavis). I taught during the pandemic so I am familiar with zoom and at home learning. I am also able to do in-person tutoring in the Huntsville, Alabama area.

Practical tutoring centered on your class textbook!
There are a few types of lessons:

~ THE DAILY FOLLOW-UP ~
These lessons follow a similar schedule to your class meetings (usually on a 1:1 or 2:1 class:tutoring basis) and include revising your class notes together (highlighting important topics, defining concepts, adding examples, or laying out step-by-step solution paths for a given type of problem); working example, practice, and graded homework problems together.

~ THE WEEKLY RE-CAP ~
These lessons are usually weekly tutoring meetings for students who aren’t currently experiencing grade issues but want to make sure they are staying on top of their course work and concepts (a.k.a. not waiting until the night before the exam). They are similar to the daily breakdown lessons but are obviously more big picture lessons that take everything you learned in class that week to make distilled overall concept and problem solving maps. Focusing on working Graded homework questions (example and practice questions as time allows)

~ THE TEST PREP ~
These lessons are the last line of defense before a Chapter or Unit Test. Focusing on practice test questions.
