Even though I teach Science at the college level, I always enjoy one on one interactions with high school or college level students, where I can help that person achieve the goals and successes they desire. Most people just lack the confidence, and I so enjoy watching them gain confidence and achieve what they want to.
I have a broad education with a degree in Chemistry, minor in Math, and a PhD in Biology, so I think this can help me integrate subjects for the student to both engage their...

Kathleen is an outstanding tutor. I am a medical student, and I was struggling with Physiology and Biochemistry as medical school is very fast paced and there is a lot of material to cover in such little time. I am glad that I reached out to her through Wyzant because she has extensive knowledge in both subjects. She explains each lecture in a thorough, concise, and clear way. She also emphasizes the most important details that I would need to know as a physician. My professors did provide practice questions to prepare for the upcoming exams and because its medical school, most of the exam questions are in the form of clinical vignettes. Whenever, I was confused on why the correct answer was the correct one, she would explain thoroughly why the answer was the best answer and what key details to look for in the clinical vignettes that would help me arrive to the correct answer. As I took the exam, I approached each question in the same manner, and this resulted in my exam grades increasing greatly. I am very pleased with her tutoring as I was originally doing very poorly in these subjects. I was happy with my final grades thanks to the outstanding job Kathleen did by tutoring me. My only wish is that I had hired her at the start of med school. I feel more confident in myself and I can explain the material that we went over very well to others. Anyone learning these subjects will extremely benefit from her tutoring. She is not only an amazing tutor but a very lovely person.

knowledgeable and patient tutor
Kathleen is an amazing tutor and extremely knowledgeable. She has a great way of breaking down really complex topics into simple ideas and relating them to real life examples, which makes everything click. Her sessions are fun without ever feeling overwhelming, and she always checks in to make sure what she explained actually makes sense. She’s very patient, easy to talk to, and genuinely cares about helping you understand the material. She has helped me ace my classes, and I’ve felt a big improvement in my confidence since working with her. I highly recommend her to anyone who needs help in science

knowledgeable and patient tutor
I am incredibly grateful for Kathleen, my medical school tutor, and the support she gave me during one of the most difficult periods of my journey. There was a point when I truly felt overwhelmed and questioned whether I could continue, and her guidance came at exactly the moment I needed it most. Kathleen didn’t just help me understand the material; she helped me rebuild confidence in myself. She was patient, encouraging, and genuinely invested in my growth, both academically and personally. She took the time to break down challenging concepts in a way that finally made them click, while constantly reminding me that struggling does not mean failing. What stood out most was how much she truly cared. She listened without judgment, reassured me during moments of self-doubt, and helped me see my own capability when I couldn’t see it myself. Because of Kathleen’s support, I didn’t quit, and I am stronger because of it. I would highly recommend Kathleen to any medical student who needs not only academic guidance but also someone who truly believes in them. Her impact on my medical school journey is something I will always be thankful for.

Great understanding of student
Very informative and is determined to figure out ways to help me understand the course material. Would like to have another session just like this and get more in depth with the coursework as the semester rolls along

Great Biochemistry Tutor
If you have never taken biochemistry before and you need someone patient and thorough, then Kathleen is the tutor for you! I had some concepts that I was confused about and Kathleen really took the time to explain each step and her thought process. I used her a couple of times before my first exam and ended up with a 99%! I finished with an A overall in the class. I'll be sure to use her again as I prepare to study for the MCAT as well.

First lesson with Kathleen was a success!
My daughter came to find me immediately after her first session with Kathleen to share how well she thought it went. She said Kathleen was very well informed, came prepared with lessons that aligned directly to what she has been learning and helped her a ton in just 1 hour. She's looking forward to scheduling more sessions in the weeks to come.

Knowledgeable and patient tutor!
Kathleen was very patient with my frustrated first-year college student and went over concepts that he had learned but didn't necessarily understand. Kathleen explained in a different way to help him grasp the concepts! We are hopeful that this builds his confidence-

Top AP Chem and AP Bio grades!
Kathleen really helped our son focus and prepare for his AP exams. With her help, he got a 4 in Chem and a 5 in Bio!! Very patient and focused on the key weak areas. Could not be more pleased. Thank you, Kathleen!
