Bio

Hi! I'm a science and health sciences tutor with a Master's in Biomedical Sciences (4.0, Summa Cum Laude), a Bachelor's in Biology, a psychology minor, and an active pharmacy intern license. I work with students at every level, from high schoolers in their first bio or chem class, to AP Bio and AP Psych students prepping for the exam, to college students grinding through Anatomy & Physiology, Microbiology, Genetics, Organic Chemistry, and Biochem, to pre-nursing and pre-health students...

Hi! I'm a science and health sciences tutor with a Master's in Biomedical Sciences (4.0, Summa Cum Laude), a Bachelor's in Biology, a psychology minor, and an active pharmacy intern license. I work with students at every level, from high schoolers in their first bio or chem class, to AP Bio and AP Psych students prepping for the exam, to college students grinding through Anatomy & Physiology, Microbiology, Genetics, Organic Chemistry, and Biochem, to pre-nursing and pre-health students getting ready for the TEAS or their first semester of nursing school. I also tutor Psychology across the board (intro, biological, abnormal, developmental, social, learning, research methods), Sociology, Pharmacology and Psychopharmacology (my specialty, thanks to a year of PharmD coursework and my pharmacy license), and PTCB exam prep.
My teaching style is simple: I meet you where you are. Big subjects like biology, chem, and psych have a lot of moving parts, and most students don't struggle because they can't learn it. They struggle because no one has slowed down and connected the dots for them. That's what I do. We'll work through your textbook, your lecture notes, your study guide, or your actual homework, whatever you bring to the session, and I'll break concepts down until they click.
What you can expect from me: patience, clear explanations, real-world examples (especially for tough stuff like biochem pathways, drug mechanisms, and physiology), and practice questions that mirror what you'll see on your exam. I'll also help you build study habits that stick, because passing the next test matters, but so does the one after that.
I tutor online via Wyzant's virtual platform, which makes scheduling easy and lets us share a whiteboard, diagrams, and resources in real time. Message me with what class you're in, where you're stuck, and when your next exam is, and we'll put a plan together.

Approved Subjects

Anatomy

Anatomy

I hold a B.S. in Biology and an M.S. in Biomedical Sciences (4.0, Summa Cum Laude), and I tutor anatomy at every level, from high school through graduate and health professions programs. I specialize in cadaver labs and lab practicals, with a strong focus on muscles (origins, insertions, innervations, and actions), nerves, bones, and every major organ system. I also work in clinical healthcare, so I connect each structure to how it functions and what happens in real patients, which makes the material much easier to remember. Whether you're preparing for an exam, a practical, or a demanding course, I'll help you build a clear system for learning anatomy instead of memorizing it.
Biology

Biology

I hold a B.S. in Biology and an M.S. in Biomedical Sciences (4.0, Summa Cum Laude), and I scored a 7 on the IB Biology HL exam, so I know demanding biology courses from the student side too. I tutor biology at every level, including AP, IB, honors, and college courses in cell and molecular biology, genetics, microbiology, evolution, and ecology. I've also worked in clinical research supporting 75+ patients across two studies, which helps me show students how biology connects to real science and medicine. My focus is helping you truly understand the processes and apply them to exam questions, including the data and experiment questions that trip up so many students.
Chemistry

Chemistry

I hold a B.S. in Biology and an M.S. in Biomedical Sciences (4.0, Summa Cum Laude), and I've taken chemistry all the way through organic chemistry and biochemistry. I've also been through PharmD coursework, including medicinal chemistry, and I'm a licensed pharmacy technician, so I know how chemistry applies to real drugs and the human body. I tutor high school, AP, IB, honors, and college chemistry, including general and organic chemistry, lab reports, and calculations like stoichiometry, equilibrium, and acid-base problems. My focus is helping you set up problems confidently and understand why things happen at the molecular level, which is exactly what exams test.
Genetics

Genetics

I completed extensive coursework in genetics as part of both my Bachelor's in Biology and my Master's in Biomedical Sciences. My undergraduate training covered classical and Mendelian genetics (inheritance patterns, Punnett squares, pedigrees, linkage, and recombination), and my graduate coursework built on that with molecular genetics, gene regulation, mutations, and introductory genomics and genetic engineering. My biomedical sciences program also required substantial work on the genetic basis of human disease, which reinforced these concepts in a clinical and research context. Based on this academic background, I am fully qualified to tutor genetics at the high school, AP Biology, and undergraduate levels
Microbiology

Microbiology

I hold a B.S. in Biology and an M.S. in Biomedical Sciences (4.0, Summa Cum Laude), and I work in clinical healthcare, so I see how microbiology connects to real patients every day. I've also worked in clinical research, including a study testing a probiotic, which gave me hands-on experience with how microbes affect human health. I tutor college, nursing, pre-health, and medical microbiology, covering microbial structure and growth, bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites, the immune response, antimicrobials and resistance, and infectious diseases by body system. My focus is helping you connect each microbe to how it causes disease and how it's identified and treated, so the material becomes a framework instead of a list to memorize.
Pharmacology

Pharmacology

I bring a strong pharmacology background combining one completed year of PharmD coursework, an active pharmacy intern license, and an M.S. in Biomedical Sciences (4.0 GPA), which together cover both the foundational science and applied drug knowledge that pharm courses build on. I'm comfortable tutoring nursing, allied health, and intro to intermediate college pharmacology, including pharmacokinetics (ADME), pharmacodynamics, receptor theory, dose-response, autonomic pharmacology, and the major drug classes by mechanism of action. My approach is mechanism-first, since once students understand the receptor and the pathway, the indications, side effects, and contraindications follow logically instead of feeling like endless memorization. I'll always tailor sessions to your specific course material so our time is focused on exactly what your exam covers.
Psychology

Psychology

I completed a psychology minor for health sciences alongside my B.S. in Biology, taking over 10 psychology courses spanning intro psych, biological psychology, abnormal psych, developmental psych, social psych, learning, and research methods. Paired with my M.S. in Biomedical Sciences (4.0 GPA) and pre-PA coursework in neuroscience and pharmacology, I bring both breadth across the major psych units and real depth on the biological foundations of behavior. I tutor intro psychology, AP Psychology, biopsychology, and the major intro psych units, and my approach focuses on connecting concepts across topics so the material clicks instead of feeling like memorization. Sessions are always tailored to your specific course so we focus on exactly what your exam covers.

Patient and Knowledgable

Tarleen is patient and ensures you understand the material in every session. I can get through practice questions with ease because of the detailed explanations that Tarleen presents beforehand. Now I understand why certain drugs are prescribed to patients based on their signs and symptoms. I highly recommend Tarleen to other students taking classes such as pharmacology!

She's amazing!

Tarleen has helped me gain a better understanding of Human Anatomy, far beyond just memorizing. She takes the time to put slideshows together for each session, and sends me them once we're done so I can further review. She teaches me easy ways to remember things and really breaks down on the areas I struggle with. I couldn't recommend her more!

Made a Huge Difference

I was trying to understand the phases of the cardiac cycle and the related pressure changes for my fast-paced college program. I was able to schedule a first appointment with her immediately, which absolutely saved me. She walked me through it all and simplified everything. I understand all of it now! I want to bring special attention to the material she used; it was incredible. It gave you tricks to remember everything and helpful tips to remember things during quizzes. I was very comfortable with her as well, which is extremely important.

Professional and result focused

I cannot recommend Tarleen highly enough as an NCE tutor! She customizes her lessons perfectly, creating a tailored program with excellent PowerPoint slides and targeted practice questions. Her explanations are incredibly thorough, helping me truly grasp the material rather than just memorizing it. On top of her excellent teaching, her communication is outstanding—she was always available to help me outside of our scheduled meetings to problem solve or answer any questions I may have. Tarleen is a fantastic, supportive educator!
