Are you a pre-med, pre-PA or nursing student struggling with Anatomy and Physiology or a high school student aiming or an A in A and P? Anatomy shouldn't feel like brute-force memorization. I am a professional educator with a MS in Biology, 11 years of experience teaching Anatomy and Physiology full-time at college level and 6 years at the high school level. I know what college professors look for on exams because I used to create them myself. I also possess a NC teaching certification so if you are a high school student, come on down! I have taught students ranging in age from 15 all the way to 85 in both group/lecture and one on one settings and have extensive experience facilitating and writing anatomy lab practicals. My high school experience has also given me the opportunity to design my own curriculum so that assignments meet the standards and focus primarily on the core concepts and things to know.
Over more than a decade experience has allowed me to develop a proprietary toolkit of vivid, memorable real-world metaphors for difficult topics. I translate dense medical jargon into intuitive, everyday concepts with proven results in the test scores of my students. Comparing nerve depolarization to eager shoppers on Black Friday outside Wal-Mart is just one active metaphor designed by me that links difficult physiological concepts with tangible, real-world examples. I also pride myself as an expert in medical root words, prefixes, and suffixes, helping students to understand a complex biological process such as hyperkalemia just by separating all the individual portions of the word to divulge the meaning. I emphasize active recall over cramming, exam strategies, integration between structure and function, and focusing on building your medical terminology vocabulary that will prove useful in our session and in your careers. Let's take the anxiety out of Anatomy and Physiology and get you the grades you need for your healthcare career. Schedule your first session today!
