I graduated veterinary school in 2004 and was a practicing veterinarian for 15 years. My experience is diverse, having worked in hospitals, animal shelters and emergency medicine and I have a passion, above all, for client education. I loved helping people learn so they could take better preventative care of their pets and manage complex disease syndromes in a very informed way.

My interest in the sciences started very young, when I would try to befriend ducks and other wildlife so I could sit and observe them. In college, I took as many anatomy, physiology, and animal science classes as I could, graduating with a BS in Zoology in 1999 (with a Geography minor for fun). During veterinary school, my thirst for knowledge continued and took me to Thailand to learn elephant medicine and Florida to study manatee epidemiology.

About three years ago, I began a new career adventure in consulting, where my main focus has been client education, and discovered this was an area I especially thrived in. I have also been involved in patient community outreach and education for some human chronic diseases that have complex biological explanations.

Having worked with a diversified public for decades, my teaching style is tailored for the needs of each individual. Learning should be what's best for each and every person. I excel most in anatomy, physiology, biology and other life sciences but geography and creative writing are also things I have an interest and background in and I have even recently finished my first novel. I look forward to meeting students here at Wyzant and helping them reach their goals.

Knowledgeable and perfect tutor for veterinary studies

Fara is a great tutor, and I strongly recommend her! I was struggling in veterinary school. I started tutoring with Fara and improved my test scores by 20%. Fara has helped me with veterinary topics from clinical scenarios, clinical pathology, physiology, histopathology, anatomy, and pharmacology (all veterinary-related). I went from being lost in lectures to understanding and applying the information on a deeper level. Fara goes out of her way to make the information fun and exciting.

Great skillset. Veterinarian! Easy to talk to. Very knowledgeable.

Fara's tutoring helped Sally on the final exam. She was easy to schedule for the available time slots. We plan on using Fara next semester. Fara is a great source for vet school tutoring. She is so knowledgeable with every course being she is a vet and she has worked as a practicing veterinarian for many years. Fara brings common sense real life examples in her explations.

Excellent tutor for Biology. Very knowledgeable, and good communicator. Reviews my class work prior to our sessions and presents the material so that it is easier to understand.

10/10 vet med tutor!

Fara and I had our first lesson and she helped explain a topic I was really struggling with, with ease! She works at your level with you and also challenges you by asking you questions to review throughout the lesson. I really appreciate her style of tutoring and can’t wait to keep working with her!

Very Helpful, knowledgable, and Creative

I have been taking lessons with Fara for over 6 months. She teaches me 2x weekly. The subjects she's taught me all relate to Animal Anatomy, Animal Systems, and Veterinary Case Studies. I find so much help in understanding all these subjects because of Fara's tutoring. She goes out of her way to find case studies, examples, and teaches a very strong foundation. Her positive, encouraging personality is a great fit for me, and I like how patient she is when I'm trying to remember terms or trying to figure out case diagnosis. I plan on taking lessons with her for a very long time - hopefully for the next few years. I have so much fun learning from Fara that the hour goes by way too fast!

Worth It!

Fara is great with mock interviews and graduate school prep. She helped me with tips for writing better essays and preparing for interviews since she’s been through the process herself. I highly recommend her!! I got into Cornell’s vet school after doing multiple interview preps with her! 10/10

Knowledgeable, patient and positive

Fara has been working with my daughter for the past couple of weeks on some high-level college courses. My daughter says she is very outgoing, positive, and patient. She comes prepared, brings extra material to help with her learning style and makes sure she understands the concepts before moving on.

AMAZING INSTRUCTOR!

Fara is an incredible tutor! She explains concepts in a way that easily understandable and retainable. She’s very thorough and ensures you understand the material before moving on. I would recommend her to anyone needing biology help, she’s awesome!
