Hello! I am a dedicated and passionate AP biology, biology, and chemistry teacher that always look forward to helping my students. I am licensed in both those subjects and have been teaching in the public schools for the past 4 years along with several hours of 1:1 tutoring. I specialize in AP Biology but am able to help in all areas!

I am passionate about my students and like to provide personalized lessons. My teaching style incorporates the resources and curriculum I use in the classroom so I like to provide those in my tutoring session as well. I do content review using my slides/powerpoints as a visual, practice material using activities, case studies, and MCQs, and working out/discussing free response questions. I would be very happy to have a session with you to share all that in detail.

I am a graduate of Benedictine University where I received my Bachelors of Science in Biology. I later did my Master’s in Science Education at University of Illinois at Chicago where I got my teaching license. Thereafter, I taught in Chicago as a high school teacher for 4 years with a focus in subjects like AP biology, IB biology, IB chemistry, anatomy and physiology, & algebra. I am passionate about the sciences and want to help my students not only appreciate the beauty within it but also find the importance of teaching study habits and life skills. I also can help in mathematics, test prep, healthcare, post secondary decisions, and more!

Outside of teaching I love cooking, walking, yoga, spending time with family, traveling, and learning about new cultures (ask me about my time when I lived in Japan if interested)! I am a strong believer in education and will do my best to help student’s realize their potential which is the key to unlocking all the treasures of this world.

For cancellations please let me know 24 hours in advance and we can reschedule, otherwise an invoice may occur.

Wonderful Teacher

Ms. Hera has helped me so much in understanding AP Bio. She’s an awesome and patient teacher. Ms. Hera breaks down complex topics and provides great analogies that stick! She guided and helped me improve on my FRQ writing a lot. The classes I have with her right before my test always improves my score. Overall, Ms. Hera has greatly assisted my learning in AP Biology.

Great tutor

Hera was very responsive to my son's needs, preparing materials so he could practice the topics he needed. Highly recommended.

Sarah, 2 lessons with Hera

Very helpful and kind tutor.

Hera taught me how to answer AP Bio frq’s in the most efficient way, while also helping me understand how to determine exactly what the frq wants you to answer. She also helped me become more comfortable with mcq’s. Overall Hera has helped me a lot this year, and my grades have improved since she started tutoring me!

Amazing teacher!

I took many sessions with Ms. Hera. She helped me study for the AP bio exam and I really benefited off our sessions together. She’s super kind and patient when teaching and overall wants the best for you. She establishes a good connection with her students, creating a warm environment. I definitely recommend her!

My daughter enjoys having her. She is helping my daughter with AP exam that is upcoming. They go over what will be in exam. My daughter appreciates that she saves the lessons and records it for later review as well.
