Passionate High School/College Tutor Specializing in Biology

Jafer A.

I’m currently earning my Master of Science in Biomolecular Science, where I hold a 4.0 GPA and have completed over 30 credit hours of advanced graduate-level coursework in molecular biology, biochemistry, immunology, cancer biology, and more. I also earned my Bachelor of Science in Molecular Biology, where I graduated with a strong GPA and a deep passion for teaching and science communication. My academic background allows me to break down complex subjects like MCAT biology/biochemistry, chemistry, and molecular pathways in ways that are approachable and easy to remember.

I’ve served as a Teaching Assistant for both undergraduate genetics and organic chemistry laboratories, working closely with over 100 students across multiple semesters. My role included one-on-one support, explaining difficult concepts, helping troubleshoot lab work, and simplifying topics like gene expression, DNA repair, and organic synthesis. In addition to my formal teaching experience, I volunteered to tutor a high school student in AP Chemistry, helping them build confidence through concept clarity and personalized strategies. I also volunteer to tutor college students in both beginner and advanced biology courses, offering help in subjects ranging from general biology to molecular and cellular biology.

I’ve worked with both high school and college students in classroom, lab, and one-on-one settings. I tailor every session to the student’s learning style—whether that means preparing for exams, improving grades, or gaining deeper understanding. I focus on building both knowledge and confidence, and I’m committed to helping students succeed with patience, encouragement, and structure.
