Bio

I have a BS in Biochemistry from Cornell University (with honors and distinction) and a PhD in Biochemistry from The Rockefeller University, although my training also encompasses neuroscience, genetics, and molecular biology. I'm enthusiastic about science, but more importantly, I approach my tutoring sessions with a sense of humor, and I have a creative style to help students better understand otherwise difficult concepts.

I have a BS in Biochemistry from Cornell University (with honors and distinction) and a PhD in Biochemistry from The Rockefeller University, although my training also encompasses neuroscience, genetics, and molecular biology. I'm enthusiastic about science, but more importantly, I approach my tutoring sessions with a sense of humor, and I have a creative style to help students better understand otherwise difficult concepts.

I have considerable expertise in the biological sciences, including general biology, genetics, cell biology, developmental biology and molecular biology. I have an extensive and highly successful record of mentoring elementary, middle school, high school, undergraduate and graduate level students (from a career spanning over 25 years). I have taught high school students, undergraduates and graduate courses, as well as medical school coursework.

I am also able to help with writing and proofreading applications, reports and essays in all fields (e.g., history, English) in addition to the biological sciences. In addition, I can help you become a better test taker.

I charge $40/hour for tutoring sessions, and my schedule is flexible. I do not currently offer on-site tutoring as a consequence of the pandemic. Let me help you increase your knowledge, your confidence, and help you better prepare for exams!

My vocabulary is extensive. As a voracious reader, I have gained a large vocabulary in both literature and science. I enjoy helping students gain an appreciation for the subtle nuances in definition and the appropriate choice of specific words.

Genetics

Part of the qualifications for the BS degree in Biochemistry at Cornell University was a 5 credit hour Genetics course that included lecture plus lab. Genetics was also one of my qualifying exams for my PhD at the Rockefeller University. My research program encompassed sophist genetics experiments and I have published original research in the field as well as taught Genetics at the graduate level. I am also a long-time member of the Genetics Society of America.

She also have helped me with APA style required by my university for all my paperwork. Wendi has a convenient schedule for me as well. I highly recommend Wendi! Nathalie

A tutor with an outstanding biology background

Wendi helped me to polish my med.school admissions essay. She is attentive to detail: she was able to find mistakes despite my confidence that no mistakes were present. Moreover, Wendi is sharp, so she did a lot of work in a short time.
