It has been a pleasure having the opportunity to tutor and teach in the classroom. I approach each students needs with patience and flexibility as each student is unique. What I enjoy about tutoring is the ability to have a one on one interaction where my entire focus is dedicated to the students accomplishments. I adapt my teaching style and my strategies to optimize their success, build confidence and boost their self esteem. I am able to focus in on the student's concept weaknesses and then break down the difficulty into easily understandable segments.not I have held a California teaching Certificate and have a Florida teaching Certificate to teach both Chemistry and Biology. My academic background includes a BA in Biology, Doctorate program in Clinical Pharmacy, Doctorate in neuromuscular pathology and a BSPA(MS) in medicine graduating Magna Cum Laude and Summa Cum Laude. I have tutored privately for 50 years both in person and online. I have been an instructor and Assistant Professor at the college level in pathophysiology, chemistry and biology, guest lecturer at two medical schools and clinical instructor for medical students. I have also taught as a high school instructor in honors chemistry, IB chemistry, advanced placement biology and honors biology. On Wyzant's platform I presently teach high school general chemistry, honors chemistry, biology, anatomy and physiology for high school and college students in pre-health care and selectively AP or IB chemistry, I as well teach college introductory or basic chemistry.
If you have any further questions about my qualifications and how I can serve your tutoring needs, please feel free to contact me at any time.

Excellent tutor

I have been taking Biology lessons with Dr. Martin every week since past school year and I have been continuing in the summer too to get a head start on AP Biology and Chemistry. He is very knowledgeable tutor. He always makes sure that I understood all the concepts. He is available whenever I have any questions.

Extremely Knowledgable in Chemistry

Martin was incredibly helpful in breaking down challenging Chemistry concepts in a way that finally made them click for me. I'm currently taking a college-level Chemistry I class, and his deep understanding of the material - especially quantum theory - was evident from the start. He explains abstract ideas clearly and patiently, and tailors sessions to fit my learning style. What stood out most is that the takes the time to review your material ahead of time and comes well-prepared to guide each session efficiently. I highly recommend Martin to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, reliable, and supportive tutor!
