Passionate STEM Tutor | AP & College-Level Expertise

Tharoon B.

I am a neuroscience major at the University of Iowa with a 4.0 GPA and extensive experience tutoring students in math and science. Over the past several years, I have worked with students through platforms such as MindZone Learning, Mathnasium, Khan Academy Schoolhouse.world, and UPchieve, providing one-on-one support in subjects like chemistry, biology, and physics. My academic background, combined with my role as an EMT, has given me a strong understanding of the sciences and the ability to explain complex topics in clear, practical ways.

My tutoring approach is highly student-centered. I focus on breaking down challenging concepts into manageable steps, using real-world examples and interactive problem-solving techniques to keep students engaged. I’ve worked with middle school, high school, and college students, helping them prepare for AP classes, standardized tests, and college-level coursework. I understand that every student learns differently, so I adapt my methods to fit their unique needs—whether that means building a strong conceptual foundation, practicing exam strategies, or boosting confidence through step-by-step guidance.

I am passionate about helping students achieve their goals and build lasting academic skills. My goal is not just to help students succeed on their next test, but to help them develop a deeper understanding of the material and the ability to think critically and independently. I believe that with the right guidance, any student can excel, and I take pride in helping them reach their full potential.
