I hold a degree in Pre-Med Biology and a state teaching certification for grades 6 through 12, which has allowed me to teach a wide range of science courses over the past six years. During that time, I’ve taught General Biology, Honors Biology, AP Biology, Earth/Space Science, and AP Environmental Science in a traditional classroom setting. My experience spans working with middle and high school students from diverse academic backgrounds, including those preparing for rigorous AP exams and students who benefit from more foundational, skill-building instruction. I’m confident in breaking down complex concepts into approachable, digestible parts and helping students make real-world connections to the content.

My teaching style combines real world examples with Socratic questioning to not only learn the science based concepts but also why these concepts are important in life. In addition to my classroom experience, I’ve also worked with students one-on-one to reinforce content and boost confidence, especially around high-stakes testing. I incorporate inquiry-based learning, real-life examples, and visual aids to make science relatable and memorable. Beyond academics, I am also a NASM-certified personal trainer with three years of experience working with individuals on a wide range of fitness goals. This gives me a unique ability to link scientific concepts to everyday life and human physiology in ways that resonate with learners. My background allows me to engage students both academically and practically, helping them succeed in a well-rounded and meaningful way.

Biology

Biology

I have over 6 years of experience teaching General Biology and 4 years of teaching AP Biology, giving me a strong background in guiding students through both foundational and advanced biological concepts. I hold a Pre-Med Biology degree, which provided me with extensive coursework in areas such as genetics, physiology, and molecular biology. In addition, I have 2 years of laboratory research experience studying gene expression in zebrafish pancreatic beta cells, which deepened my understanding of experimental design and real-world applications of biology. This combination of classroom and research experience allows me to make biology both accessible and engaging for learners at all levels.
Earth Science

Earth Science

I have 4 years of experience teaching Earth/Space Science to middle and high school students in a classroom setting. My instruction covers key topics such as geology, meteorology, astronomy, and oceanography, with a focus on making complex systems understandable and engaging. I use hands-on activities, real-world examples, and interactive lessons to help students connect scientific concepts to everyday life and current global issues.
Ecology

Ecology

I am highly qualified to tutor Ecology, with four years of experience teaching AP Environmental Science at the high school level. Throughout this time, I’ve helped students master key ecological concepts such as energy flow, nutrient cycling, population dynamics, and ecosystem interactions. My instruction emphasizes real-world applications, data analysis, and critical thinking, all aligned with AP standards. I also incorporate current environmental issues and case studies to help students connect ecological principles to global challenges.
Environmental Science

Environmental Science

I have 4 years of experience teaching AP Environmental Science to high school students, guiding them through the rigorous curriculum with a focus on critical thinking and real-world application. My instruction emphasizes key topics such as ecosystems, biodiversity, energy resources, pollution, and sustainability, while helping students develop strong data analysis and scientific writing skills. I incorporate case studies, lab investigations, and current environmental issues to make the content engaging and relevant. My students have consistently demonstrated growth and success on the AP exam through a structured, supportive, and interactive learning environment.
Fitness

Fitness

I am a NASM-certified personal trainer with over three years of experience helping clients achieve a wide range of fitness goals, from weight loss and strength training to improved athletic performance. My background includes specialized coaching in soccer, swim, and run training, allowing me to support both general fitness clients and sport-specific athletes. I’ve worked with individuals of all ages and fitness levels, tailoring each program to their unique needs and goals. My approach focuses on building long-term habits, proper form, and confidence in movement.
Genetics

Genetics

I am well-qualified to tutor Genetics thanks to my academic and professional background in the biological sciences. I hold a Pre-Med Biology undergraduate degree, which included extensive coursework in genetics, molecular biology, and cell biology. I also spent two years conducting laboratory research focused on gene expression in zebrafish pancreatic beta cells, giving me hands-on experience with genetic analysis and experimental design. In addition, I have four years of experience teaching AP Biology, where I’ve guided students through complex genetics topics such as Mendelian inheritance, gene regulation, and biotechnology.
Nutrition

Nutrition

I have been a NASM-certified personal trainer for 4 years, which has provided me with a strong foundation in nutrition as it relates to fitness, performance, and overall health. My experience includes guiding clients through nutritional strategies that complement their training programs, such as balancing macronutrients, understanding energy needs, and supporting weight management goals. I emphasize evidence-based approaches that focus on building sustainable habits rather than quick fixes. By connecting exercise science with practical nutrition, I help clients create a well-rounded plan to reach their individual goals
Soccer

Soccer

I have 14 years of experience playing competitive travel soccer, including time with local clubs and the Murray State University soccer club team. This background has given me a deep understanding of the technical, tactical, and physical demands of the game. In addition, I have 4 years of experience as a NASM-certified personal trainer, where I’ve worked with athletes across multiple sports to improve strength, conditioning, agility, and performance. Combining my playing experience with my training expertise allows me to design programs that develop both soccer-specific skills and overall athletic ability.
Swimming

Swimming

I have 10 years of experience as a competitive swimmer, which gave me strong technical knowledge in stroke mechanics, endurance training, and race preparation. In addition, I spent 3 years working as a swim instructor, where I taught swimmers of varying ages and skill levels—from beginners learning water safety to more advanced swimmers refining their technique. This combination of competitive background and teaching experience allows me to break down complex skills into clear, manageable steps. I focus on helping swimmers build confidence, efficiency, and overall performance in the water.

Knowledgeable and awesome

Dylan is an amazing tutor! My son struggled with AP environmental sciences the whole semester and we are lucky we found him! He has to do well on his last unit and with Dylan’s guidance, my son got his first 90% on his test where he didn’t do well on the others. Dylan def knows this subject by heart and has a lot of tools to help you understand the concepts. Highly recommend!

Expert tutor in AP Environmental Science

I'm very happy we found Dylan. My daughter was really struggling in her AP Environmental Science course and I knew that she needed the extra support from a knowledgeable tutor. Would highly recommend Dylan for your AP science courses or any advanced science prep.
