I am a UCF graduate and experienced full-time professional tutor. Passing my knowledge on to others has been a lifelong passion of mine. As a student, I loved tutoring my friends and peers and have continued to carry that joy. Tutoring is my full-time career, and my world revolves around education. I am always thinking of my students - my days are spent planning lessons, teaching, and thinking of new ways to help my students achieve their highest level of learning.

As a tutor, I strive to create an environment where learning can be looked forward to and provide lessons that last. I understand that tutoring doesn't always feel "fun" for a student, but I bring that energy and keep things positive! I'm always sure to spend time working through practice and learning the current material, but also looking towards the future and practicing strategies that will help my students succeed long after their days with me are done.

Feel free to contact me with any questions about me or to discuss specific circumstances. I pride myself on being a flexible and understanding tutor so I always do my best to accommodate when possible. Everyone deserves the opportunity to learn!

Genetics

As a Biology student at the University of Central Florida, I was one of the top-scoring students in my Genetics classes. As such, I went on to become a teaching assistant for Genetics where I used visuals and worksheets I created to help students more fully understand the course.

Very knowledgeable & patient

Sarah helped my daughter with 9th grade honors biology. She was very detailed with the lesson while still keeping things simple enough to understand. She was prepared with related diagrams that helped to visualize and better understand photosynthesis, Calvin/ Creb cycle, cellular respiration, etc. She recognized times my daughter was confused which means she was paying attention to her not just going through a lesson. My daughter came prepared with questions and Sarah challenged her by having her answer each question with what she thought the answer was to evaluate what she knew and how she could help her. It boosted her confidence when she was right or on the right track to the right answer. Overall, she was very helpful, patient, and I would highly recommend her!

Genetics

Sarah has tutored me several times for my genetics class. She was very patient and made me feel comfortable asking questions or simply saying "I don't understand" when I needed further explanation on a topic. She is very knowledgeable, but is not afraid to admit when she needs to look something up to help better explain things. I really appreciated that rather than her acting like she knows everything and leading me astray on a topic. I highly recommend Sarah!!!

Knowledgeable and patient.

Sarah was patient and consistent during our lesson tutoring with 9th grade Physical Science. She continually asked and reviewed whether the answer was right or wrong and kept my student thinking and engaged.

Kind and patient tutor

My first session with Sarah was very helpful. I started out the session not understanding much of anything about Meiosis and she got me up to speed in an hour. She was very patient and knowledgeable. I hope I get to work with her again in the future.

Lori, 16 lessons with Sarah

Knowledgeable and friendly tutor

I was looking for an Honors Biology tutor for my daughter in 10th grade. Sarah was a perfect match since my daughter is interested in genetics and Sarah has explicitly mentioned it in her profile. She explains very well with diagrams and examples that makes it very interesting and meaningful. Very happy with her lessons so far and plan to continue with further lessons.

Knowledgeable, experienced in multi subjects

Sarah is very knowledgeable, experienced and patient in many subject areas. She is patient with student and insightful in high school curriculum. A great teacher in person or online. We are very happy to find her.

Knowledgeable, patient, detailed,

Sarah assisted me with my BIO 101 class that was taught by a second year professor. This professor has us doing chemistry, stats, probability, genetics, and advanced biology. Sarah know it all, was patent with me. Even as I went of on my rants about verifying intellectual perspectives, I am a sociology major. She is kind and gentle and didn't utter a harsh word. I had a wonderful time working with her.
