Bio

I have years of experience mentoring and tutoring graduate and undergraduate college students, young adults and children.
My teaching philosophy is to teach and provide tools so the student could eventually be able to succeed on his/her own. I concentrate on developing Scientific thinking through leading questions. With young students, I play games, build puzzles and work on logic riddles in addition to their regular curriculum, to develop math and scientific thinking.

I have years of experience mentoring and tutoring graduate and undergraduate college students, young adults and children.

With young students, I play games, build puzzles and work on logic riddles in addition to their regular curriculum, to develop math and scientific thinking.
I tutor Cell Biology, Microbiology, Biochemistry, Genetics and Physiology at college levels, high school level Biology and General Science and Math K-8.

In addition to science, languages and linguistics is my other passion. I also teach Hebrew and Russian, both adults and children. Although at first, one might think that the two languages could not be more different, but they are both based on "roots" and the modern Hebrew was developed by a person whose first language was Russian. I am fluent in both Hebrew and Russian and familiar with the culture as well.

I have tons of patience and experience working with ADD/ADHD children. I received my Ph.D in Cancer Immunology from Hebrew University, Jerusalem, Israel and I conducted my post-doctorate academic research at Harvard Medical School trying to understand the players leading to Cancer development and drugs that will be more efficient. A couple of years ago I moved to the Biotech industry concentrating on personalized medicine approach to treatment.

Great tutor

Rosalia was patient and very helpful. She also was flexible with scheduling. She is knowledgeable in many areas and quite detail oriented. I highly recommend Rosalia.

Lisa, 1 lesson with Rosalia

Effective approach

She taught me the difference between polar and nonpolar bonds and structures. I like how she draws things out and shows you different ways to better understand the material

Annelise, 1 lesson with Rosalia

Great tutor !

We worked on Immunology practice problems. Rosalia is caring and she knows her stuff ! Will work again with Rosalia.

Owen, 1 lesson with Rosalia

Super Patient

Rosalia was incredibly patient, and talked me through PowerPoint slides covering "Enzyme Kinetics." She was a genuinely friendly person, and she helped increase my understanding of variables, equations, graphs, and more. She also gave examples of how this subject applies to the world.

Madison, 1 lesson with Rosalia

Very helpful and enthusiastic.

Rosalia helped me to prepare for my Genetics final. There were certain subjects I knew I needed help on and others I hadn't realized I needed help on. Rosalia, patiently and kindly, went over all the material with me. Her examples and explanations were enthusiastic and clear. She's the best tutor I've found through WyzAnt. She made meeting with her enjoyable, and even gave me the confidence that I needed to do well on my final. I would highly recommend her as a tutor.

Maggie, 2 lessons with Rosalia

kind and intelligent tutor

I learned about the biogeochemical cycles. I think Rosalia is very good at explaining each topic and she really gets the point across.

Danielle, 4 lessons with Rosalia

Excellent tutor!

Rosalia is an extraordinary tutor. My freshman daughter was having a very hard time understanding biology until she started sessions with Rosalia...she even scored in the advance level on the MCAS after working with Rosalia! She is also very patient, easy to schedule with and extremely knowledgeable.

Ann, 12 lessons with Rosalia

Helpful and Friendly

Rosalia is patient and offers good feedback for speaking and writing Hebrew. She explains things during sessions and is good about pulling in outside resources as well. Appointments are easy to set up and have definitely helped me improve; Rosalia is very helpful and patient and a great person to have a conversation with!

Lauren, 14 lessons with Rosalia

Very competent tutor in genetics

We hired Rosalia as a tutor for my daughter in genetics. She is a student at Boston University and needed some additional study methods. Rosalia not only went over all the material, my daughter says Rosalia has the unique ability to relate genetics to real life situations and uses great examples. She has did really well on her last exams, and has the added confidence going into finals week. Thank you Rosalia for all of your help. Signed: A very proud DAD
