Hello, my name is Rachel and I graduated with a degree in Molecular and Cell Biology from the University of California at Berkeley as well as Summa cum laude in Biology from the University of Texas at San Antonio. I have taught both Biology and AP Biology in High school for over 10 years as well as a Graduate Student Instructor for University Biology I and labs while getting my Master’s in Biology. I have also successfully tutored for AP Biology and Texas Biology STAAR testing for thousands of students for 10+ years.

My experience teaching has prepared me to teach a variety of students and subjects and has required me to be flexible and adaptive in my teaching style. I am a determined, enthusiastic, knowledgeable, and highly motivated tutor. I enjoy working with students and planning innovative lessons that are relevant to their lives and adaptive to their diverse needs.

My undergraduate course experience and grades include: Advanced Physiology and Lab - A , Microbiology and Lab- A, Molecular Biology - A, Organic Chemistry I - A, Biochemistry and Lab - A, Human Embryology - A
Genetics and Lab - A, Comparative Vertebrae Anatomy - A, Physiology of Human Systems - A , and Comparative Animal Physiology - A.

Really knows her bio

Rachel is always very thorough and organized. She is very good at assessing the needs of my son and focusing on that material. She is also very open to feedback. I asked her to try to draw my son into interacting more during the lessons and she adapted immediately in the next lesson

Very Knowledgeable

Rachel helped my daughter review AP Biology. She is very easy to follow with lessons. Also, she is very patient and she answers all questions from student. Thanks Rachel

Ysabel, 3 lessons with Rachel

Kind and thorough-- a great tutor.

She helped my daughter understand biology with her thoughtful and deep explanations. My daughter was well prepared for her exam and we'll continue to reach out when needed. A fabulous resource.

Great tutor for AP Bio

Rachel was very patient and knowledgeable. She really helped my daughter in the session. We liked her so much we have hired her for future future tutoring sessions.

Margaret, 3 lessons with Rachel

Well prepared and clear

Rachel has been tutoring my daughter in AP biology for a couple of weeks now. She is the third tutor we have tried, and the first where my daughter is regularly progressing. She brings visuals to help my daughter understand, and when they have finished filling out the study guide, she continues to go back over it with my daughter and help her fill things in that are missing or need a more in-depth explanation. Highly recommend!

Knowledgeable tutor

Rachel is excellent! She is very organized and have proper lesson plans. My daughter rarely likes tutors, but Rachel is great! We're continuing biology lessons with her.
