Expert Tutor in Sciences, Physiology, Chemistry, Nursing, and Premed

Caitlyn T.

My name is Caitlyn, and I am a professional science and healthcare educator specializing in Physiology, Teas preparation, HESI preparation, MCAT science content, Nursing coursework, Microbiology, General Biology, General Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, Physics, and more. I earned my Bachelor of Science in Biological Sciences from the University of California, Irvine and completed graduate-level coursework in Molecular Biology and Biochemistry at UC Irvine. As a graduate student, I received an Honorable Mention from the National Science Foundation Graduate Research Fellowship. I currently work as a college tutor supporting students in science and healthcare-related coursework and bring 18+ years of tutoring experience helping students succeed in challenging academic environments. My background extends beyond the classroom. I worked as an Emergency Department Medical Scribe for two years and have authorship on peer-reviewed publications indexed on PubMed. My teaching philosophy centers around making complex material understandable and approachable. Rather than relying on memorization alone, I help students build a strong conceptual foundation through visual learning, active recall, guided problem solving, practice questions, and individualized study plans. Over the years, I have worked with high school, college, pre-nursing, pre-medical, and nursing students in both individual and group settings. My goal is to create a supportive, engaging environment where students gain confidence, master difficult concepts, improve performance, and achieve their academic goals.
