About Erol


Bio

Hi, I'm Erol! I am a professional and friendly tutor specializing in HS, College, and Graduate students in the natural sciences and mathematics. I provide AP and College level support in Physics, Chemistry, Biology, and all Math up to calculus and differential equations. Graduate level support is available for Biochemistry, Physical Chemistry, and Biomedical sciences including PhD/MD coursework.

Hi, I'm Erol! I am a professional and friendly tutor specializing in HS, College, and Graduate students in the natural sciences and mathematics. I provide AP and College level support in Physics, Chemistry, Biology, and all Math up to calculus and differential equations. Graduate level support is available for Biochemistry, Physical Chemistry, and Biomedical sciences including PhD/MD coursework.

I received a B.S. in Biochemistry and my M.S. in Molecular Virology and Microbiology at the Baylor College of Medicine. I am also a research scientist with peer-reviewed publications and USPTO inventions in the field of experimental therapeutics. I have 8+ years experience teaching and tutoring for math and science (all levels Chemistry, Physics, Biology), as well as test prep (GRE, MCAT, and SAT). working with HS, College, and Graduate students. I served two semesters as a Teaching Assistant at Rice University, Former Education Lieutenant at Rice University EMS with experience lecturing EMT-B and EMT-I and former CPR instructor.

In our sessions, we'll use a Socratic back-and-forth to make sure that student understanding sets the pace of all lessons. You're encouraged to ask questions, think aloud, and build foundations instead of being forced to move through a problem in frustration.

My Personal Test Scores: Unlike most tutors, I not only have improved the scores of my students, but I also publish my own scores.

GRE: 1490 (730CR/760Q) 98th Percentile
MCAT: 36 (14PS/11BS/11V) 98th Percentile
SAT: 2330 (800CR/760Q/770W) 99th Percentile

Dedicated, won't give up on you, will continue with you until he's certain you got it

"Erol is a tutor that has gone above and beyond other tutors I've met with. So far, he has tutored me on organic chemistry, NMR spectra, grignard synthesis with epoxides, and peak-splitting. I am someone who struggles greatly with this stuff, and NMR is the hardest topic in the entire class. Erol was able to finally explain it in a way that clicks, in an hour. I really think that if Erol can explain this to me, Erol can explain anything to anyone. Erol has also been very motivating at my moments where I'm struggling to come up with an answer. Erol is very patient, and he's also good at keeping your focus engaged. I've worked with 9 tutors throughout my undergrad career, some of them good, some of them great, but Errol has raised the bar in everyway possible. "

He is good

Good teacher. Gets to the point quickly. Helps with weak areas especially. He puts a lot of emphasis on Phys/Chem material which is good. He also helps a lot with Bio/Biochem material.

Alex, 28 lessons with Erol

Excellent Chemistry Tutor!

Erol has worked with both of my boys and has been more than patient and helpful. My son said: "Erol helped me with numerous practice problems and we went through them step by step and he made me explain the steps so that I really understood"

Vanessa, 7 lessons with Erol

Excelent Quantum mechanics tutor.

Erol tutored me in quantum mechanics. He worked with me on everything from normalizing wave functions, explaining the particle in a box model, hermitan polynomials and other topics relating to quantum physics. He makes learning a diffuclt topic like quantum mechanics easy. I 100% recomend him to anybody who is looking for help with homework or even somebody to explain you dificult quantum physics concepts outside of the classroom.

Knowledgeable, patient, and dedicated tutor

Erol is an amazing tutor. His availability is phenomenal and he is flexible with timing changes, especially in light of what is occurring in my life. Additionally, he utilizes a Socratic method where he truly ensures that you understand what you are talking about. You will never leave a session of his confused, and will instead leave with a better understanding of every concept. It is hard to find tutors who are both knowledgeable in advanced Biology, and patient and dedicated enough to explain it well. However, in regards to topics including biochemistry, molecular biology, RNA/DNA, enzymes, the central dogma, and molecular mechanisms of transcription and translation, Erol was instrumental in my ability to both understand and apply these concepts to different questions. Without him, my grade in Biology would be much different.

Knowledgeable and patient MCAT tutor

I have had several lessons with Erol where he has helped me primarily with MCAT Chem/Phys and he has been amazing! He's extremely knowledgeable in these subjects, is very patient, always answers my questions clearly, and does a great job of making sure that I understand concepts by asking me questions. I could not have asked for a more helpful tutor. I now feel much more comfortable with the chem/phys section and I look forward to continuing my sessions with him.

Knowledgeable and thorough

Erol is very knowledgeable in the areas of Anatomy and Physiology. He really helped me a lot with understanding the Neuron and action potential. He helped me understand the tissue layers that I was studying for my exam and made me feel real comfortable going into the test. Erol is also very accommodating when it comes to scheduling sessions. He is very quick to respond and be available to help at a last minute's notice. I've already scheduled a session for my biology class next. I hope to continue using him for all my future biology and A&P classes.

Rosanna, 5 lessons with Erol

Very Knowledgeable Tutor!!

We went through a group of practice problems towards a final exam including photoelectric effect voltage production, radioactive decay, fission, binding energy, and conservation of proton and mass numbers. Erol made sure I knew the fundamentals of everything and asked me questions to as we went to make sure I understood what was going on. I learned more with one session with Erol than I did in a whole semester of physics.

MCAT

Erol is very patient and passionate tutor. He helps me with what I need for my upcoming exam. He also walks me through how to approach the passage. I am looking forward to our next session

Knowledgeable and patient tutor

Erol was very knowledgeable about calculus and chemistry, and gave great study tips and strategies that can carry over to other subjects. The only small issue was that the internet kept cutting out which disrupted the lesson a bit. Overall the session was very helpful and we will keep tutoring with Erol.
