Hello!
I am a recent UCSD graduate spending my time in Cupertino while I work on my veterinary school applications. I graduated Magna Cum Laude with a bachelors in Human Biology and minors in Business and Marine Biology. My first job was as a swim instructor during my high school summers. I discovered an immediate passion in helping other accomplish their goals and learn new skills. As a tutor, I believe that everyone does better at their own pace. I am looking to assist you in your studying...

Hello!
I am a recent UCSD graduate spending my time in Cupertino while I work on my veterinary school applications. I graduated Magna Cum Laude with a bachelors in Human Biology and minors in Business and Marine Biology. My first job was as a swim instructor during my high school summers. I discovered an immediate passion in helping other accomplish their goals and learn new skills. As a tutor, I believe that everyone does better at their own pace. I am looking to assist you in your studying and am confident we can completely master any topic and help you reach your goals!

I recently took the GRE as part of my application and scored a 165 in the quantitative section. I am familiar with the type of questions the GRE will try to throw at you as well as helpful tips to increase your score!

I am well-versed in basically all things science from biology the chemistry. Graduating Magna Cum Laude, I have developed a strong foundation for both simple and complex chemistry and biology topics. Using my past experiences as a tutor and instructional assistant, I hope to be able to help you become more comfortable with my favorite subjects!

Thank you for taking the time to consider me as your tutor. Please don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions or would like more information!

great teacher

I was looking for a teacher for both my 11 year old son who was interested in biology and my 8 years old daughter who had never learned biology before. Ben was very nice to introduce himself to the kids. Came to class with all material ready. The class consisted of short videos and pictures and diagrams which made the kids focused through your the one hour class. After the class, Ben spend a hour talking with me to understand what’s my expectations for the kids and feedbacks from the class. I am very happy that we found Ben, I think he is the perfect biology teacher that we were looking for.

Great tutor!

Ben is a great tutor. His GRE teaching methods were very helpful. He is very organized and articulate and helped me understand how to tackle the issues of taking the GRE. He is easy to work with as well and affordable. I highly recommend him.

Patient and Knowledgeable Tutor

Ben is an amazing tutor! I have been struggling with some of the material of my biology class and reached out to him. He was super accessible and quick to respond. Ben also went above and beyond to help me with the material by referring me to extra resources before we even scheduled a session! He definitely comes prepared and does a great job of breaking down the more complex topics for me to better understand. After our session I feel much more confident about the material. I highly recommend Ben if you’re looking for a tutor to help you with your classes.
