I'm Anya! I graduated with a degree in biochemistry with honors, worked in cancer research for 2 years, and now am a doctoral student in Clinical psychology. I have over 7 years of experience tutoring students in all different settings with many different ability levels, helping them reach their academic and personal goals.

I began tutoring in high school, working with middle school and high school students who were having difficulty keeping up in their classes. In college, I continued to develop my teaching and tutoring skills. I worked as a tutor for the biochemistry department at my college. I also tutored and taught classes in a prison higher education program for 4 years.

As a pre-med student, I took the MCAT and improved my score by 20 points in a few months just studying based on my own techniques and strategies. I truly believe every student can excel in any subject or test, if we take the time to discover what tools you need to get there.

I know how important it is as a tutor to figure out what kind of support the student will most benefit from in order to be truly helpful. My approach is to work with the student to figure out a plan that works for you, whether that be additional lecture and class-type activities, working through homework and practice questions, creating a study plan and holding you accountable, or anything else that may be of use.
If you are interested in working together, do not hesitate to get in touch. I look forward to hearing from you!

excellent tutor

Anya is very smart and knows the subject material. I needed help with thermodynamics, catalysis, enzyme kinetics, molecular recognition, drug binding, specificity in molecular recognition, allostery and cooperativity. I definitely would recommend her and plan on using her again in the future.

Great science teacher!

Excellent science teacher! My son said was extremely helpful. Anya picked up the material and explained very easy to understand. TheThank you Anya!

Extremely flexible and thinks outside the box

Anya has been extremely helpful for me because she focused, right off the bat, primarily on finding out how it is that I learn best. Rather than employing one's own ways of going about teaching things, Anya asked questions about what historically has been effective for me, and she developed a learning plan that employed those strategies. I'm super thankful to have had someone so flexible.
