Hi there! I am Fox, I am a board certified internal medicine physician. I also have a Bachelor's in biochemistry from Indiana University. I have been tutoring in most science topics for 9 years. I have been a student for so long now, I have found effective ways to teach complicated concepts, as well as learning strategies like spaced repetition that help students learn large quantities of information and then retain that information.

I prefer to take an active teaching approach. When I tutor my students, it is more like a conversation about the topic rather than a lecture. I have the student try and tell me all they can about a topic, this helps me find where their knowledge gaps are. From there, I try and fill those gaps in a few ways such as: leading the student to the answer so they can figure it out themselves, using funny mnemonics, or making up a visual story. Once I feel the student has learned a concept, I leave it alone for 10-15 minutes and then will ask them to explain that concept to me again. This practice, called spaced repetition, is essential for students not forgetting what they've just learned.

When applicable, I teach my students how to use a free flashcard app that uses spaced repetition. This is the app that gets many medical students through medical school. It makes learning vast quantities of information a reasonable task. And best of all its free!

I am patient, relaxed and easy to talk to. I try and make my students feel comfortable so we can discuss their grades or whatever road blocks to success they may have.

As a disclaimer: I will not assist any student commit any form of academic dishonesty. I can aid you with assignments and help guide you toward an answer, but I will NOT do an assignment for you, take tests for you etc.

Incredibly knowledgeable tutor - Highly recommend

Tutored physiology spanning multiple body systems (cardio, respiratory, adipose, metabolism, hydration), he has a deep understanding of how physiology works and can answer all high level university questions immediately without having to Google answers so makes the sessions extremely efficient in terms of time and learning. Very patient and detailed with explanations

Elizabeth, 3 lessons with Fox

If there were six stars, Fox would get them.

Fox is the sixth star. Knowledgeable, engaging, clear and friendly. Today's conversation was about CRISPR and neurotransmitters. Thanks, Fox, for the good sessions.

Really great experience

I was so worried about my renal final few weeks ago. I studied,but nothing in my mind. I posed help, and Fox helped me out. He tried to use some metaphors, his experience that he learned from his medical region to make me understand my material for pharmacology and therapeutic part of renal disease. When I reviewed again, everything became so much sense. I really appreciate he was so kind and available for me, and I finally passed my renal final. Thank u, Fox. Iโ€™m so lucky to have a such fantastic tutor. Take him ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘
