Hello! Congratulations on making the first step towards taking your learning to the next level. I am excited for us to connect. You’ll find that I am a patient and experienced tutor who can personalize our sessions to best suit your needs.

I come to Wyzant with a diverse amount of teaching experience. For the past 8 years I have taught science in both middle and high school settings. During this time I have taught Chemistry, AP Biology, Earth Science, Anatomy & Kinesiology, and AP Environmental Science. In addition to teaching, I also have experience tutoring individual students so they can best reach their academic goals, whether that’s getting a 5 on the AP exam, improving your study habits, or just bumping your grade up to that next letter in the alphabet.

In 2019 I earned my master of teaching (MT) from the University of Virginia Curry School of Education. There I gained my teaching license and scored in the top 10% national on the biology PRAXIS exam. Since then I have taught at Christ School, a private boarding school in Asheville, NC.

I want you to get the most out of our sessions. That’s why I work with my you to develop personalized and actionable goals that go beyond our time together. I am open to any ideas or resources that you provide, or that parents may suggest. I am easy to contact and will reply promptly. Don't hesitate to reach out if you have other questions or would like to schedule a meeting.

Biology

Biology

In addition to teaching college-level biology at the AP level for the past few years, I am equally comfortable simplifying complex concepts so that anyone can understand them. In college, I conducted my own independent study and afterwards worked for the Bureau of Land Management as a botanist. This informs my knowledge of how to write a great lab report and how to explain the scientific process as it relates to biology. I have also recently participated as an AP reader grading student exams, which has given me insight into you can give yourself the best chance of scoring highly.
Environmental Science

Environmental Science

In addition to instructing a diverse array of youth in AP environmental science, I have also been selected as an AP reader, grading students responses on the free response section of the 2025 AP Environmental Science exam. This has given me insights into how to best prepare for and score highly on the exam.
