About Peter


Bio

In 2016, I graduated from Barry University with a degree in biology. During my time there I was a teaching assistant for several classes in which I gained experience assisting others through tough situations. I always enjoyed my time and even volunteered when I could to teach younger students. I love teaching because not only do I enjoy the excitement that a student gets when I help them work through something challenging, but in the process, I often learn a lot myself.

In 2016, I graduated from Barry University with a degree in biology. During my time there I was a teaching assistant for several classes in which I gained experience assisting others through tough situations. I always enjoyed my time and even volunteered when I could to teach younger students. I love teaching because not only do I enjoy the excitement that a student gets when I help them work through something challenging, but in the process, I often learn a lot myself.

I graduated with my Ph.D. from Florida Atlantic University in the Fall of 2024. Currently, I am a Postdoctoral Research Fellow studying the brain at the University of Illinois.

I have spent a lot of the last 5 years of my life completely dedicating myself to the pursuit of higher education and humbling myself to a better understanding of the subjects I am most interested in. Though I have put the most effort into mastering the wide range of topics in the life sciences, I enjoy enriching my understanding through literature and philosophy. My years of scientific research have sharpened my skills to the point where I am now working with elite scientists in the neuroscience community. To be successful in this field assumes a deep understanding of the fundamental principles of biology, nature, and the universe.

I have come a long way and dedicated myself to become an avid writer. Being a biologist requires the ability to concisely and coherently portray ideas to avoid ambiguity. I have published multiple research articles in which much of my time was spent editing and rewriting to make them as aesthetically and logically appealing as possible. I pride myself on my ability to revise papers for others and offer sound advice on how to make a piece better.

I look forward to meeting and working with as many people as possible. I welcome all enthusiastic and motivated individuals to come to share their ideas, issues, and concerns with me. I can promise 100% percent of my effort and attention to any challenge or issue that any person may have.

Approved Subjects

Biology

Biology

I received my B.S. in 2016 in General Biology, which set the foundation for a wide range of knowledge in the Life Sciences. In 2024, I received my PhD in Neuroscience. Currently, I am a Postdoctoral Research Fellow. I have been teaching officially (in the university), privately tutoring, and directly mentoring students since 2018.
Genetics

Genetics

My PhD research project was focused on a project from a neurogenetics approach. I utilized the powerful genetic model organism C. elegans to investigate and characterize novel genes required for proper signaling of dopamine neurotransmission in the brain. For my PhD work which later resulted in multiple publications, I developed a thorough understanding of genetics and the corresponding molecular mechanisms involved.
Neuroscience

Neuroscience

I received my PhD in neuroscience in the Fall of 2024. I have been working full time as a research scientist in neuroscientist for almost 10 years. Further, I have mentored over 20 neuroscience researchers, as well as privately tutored students taking neuroscience courses.
Proofreading

Proofreading

Working as an academic and scientist for over 10 years has two major themes always in common- reading and writing complex literature as well as countless student writing assignments such as theses. Moreover, I am now an author on multiple peer-reviewed publications which has further sharpened my writing and proofreading skills.

Very knowledgeable, professional, and patient!

I met with Peter for help with designing experiments that use methods discussed in class to answer a scientific question. He is extremely knowledgeable, great at explaining the techniques, and breaks down the material that really allow me to comprehend. I’m looking forward to continuing my project with his guidance.

Smart and attentive

Peter tutored - in-person -our high school daughter in Biology Pre-iB for the first session. He gave her some great study tool ideas. He also helped explain some of the concepts that she that she has been struggling with. We will hire him again!

Excellent tutor

He is an excellent tutor, very patient and very knowledgeable. He is easy to reach and communicate with. He has very good understanding of the subject and explains things very well. He has helped me gain a good insight into my subject.

Very Patient Teacher

My granddaughter has difficulty with math, but is advancing nicely with Peter’s instruction. She is at home doing distance learning with no other help. She is sensitive and can get discouraged easily.

A great and fun teacher

She is already more comfortable with her knowledge of the material. And is very motivated to work harder. Thank you
