About Matthew


Bio

Hello, I am Dr. Matthew Fields and have served as a science teacher/tutor for about 20 years and a school administrator for almost ten years. Over my time as a teacher, I tutored & taught some of the most gifted minds in the Dallas/Fort-Worth area - my students won multiple scholastic awards and were state competitors on multiple occasions. In fact, the Academic Decathlon team at my school traveled all the way to the national competition for the first time in 2 decades under my leadership....

Hello, I am Dr. Matthew Fields and have served as a science teacher/tutor for about 20 years and a school administrator for almost ten years. Over my time as a teacher, I tutored & taught some of the most gifted minds in the Dallas/Fort-Worth area - my students won multiple scholastic awards and were state competitors on multiple occasions. In fact, the Academic Decathlon team at my school traveled all the way to the national competition for the first time in 2 decades under my leadership. During my time as a teacher, I served as the science department chair, the lead PreAP Chemistry teacher, and lead AP Biology teacher for one of the most successful AP programs in Texas. I have tutored over 2500 students over 15 years while operating my own tutoring business. I transitioned my tutoring business to this online platform at Wyzant after becoming a principal in a small school in Texas. Since stepping into the role of principal, our school has had a phenomenal increase in student academic achievement (for the 2021-2022 school year our school had a school report card rating of 99 out of 100 points - this ties us for highest in the entire state of Texas). Though I have a new role, I have loved continuing my work as a professional tutor.

I have served as a curriculum writer/designer for several districts, as a consultant for NMSI, and as an AP Reader for the College Board. My experiences are unique and provide an insight that most others do not have. My students continuously perform significantly above the average in virtually every measurable way (whether that be a competition or test).

Tutoring times for the 2024-2025 school year are available, but those spots are filling quickly. Please do not hesitate to reach out to me to see if time is available for you or your student. Also, ask about my AP Biology Review Sessions that take placed weekly in preparation for the big AP Biology exam in May. Let me know how I can help!

Phenomenal Bio tutor

Before I worked with Matthew I had big gaps in my knowledge about some bio concepts, and making a 5 on the exam was something I never thought i could achieve. Matthew, however, was super helpful and explained the concepts very clearly and succinctly, with many helpful tips such as pneumonics to help remember concepts and also his inside knowledge about the exam. After working with Matthew during the course of a few months, I gained a much better understanding of the subject and was able to earn a 5 on the subsequent AP Bio exam.

the best of the best

THe best out there! My daughter was extremely nervous taking AP bio as a freshman but biology became one of her favorite subjects in school. He has an expert deep knowledge of the subject that made difficult concepts easy to comprehend and interesting! Highly recommend to anyone wanting to excel in ap bio.

Amazing AP Biology Tutor – Knowledgeable, Supportive, and Highly Effective

My daughter had three review sessions with Dr. Matthew Fields about one to two weeks before the AP Biology exam. His teaching was clear, effective, and very helpful in boosting my daughter’s understanding and confidence. He is not only highly knowledgeable but also incredibly supportive. He took the time to clarify many of her doubts and made complex topics easier to grasp. We especially appreciated his willingness to accommodate our schedule on short notice when we needed urgent help. I highly recommend Matthew to any student preparing for AP Biology!

Amazing AP Bio Tutor

Dr Field takes his students from struggling in Bio to having a great shot at getting a 5. In the process he teaches them how to study, manage their time, and become independent and curious learners. While I was hoping that he would help my son in improving his grade, I did not expect that he would love biology and gain so much confidence. Thank you!

Excellent

Very happy with my son’s lesson with Matthew. He helped him with any questions and spent time explaining things thoroughly until my son understood. My son ended up with the highest score on the test. We will definitely use again.

Patient, detailed, excellent AP bio tutor

Matthew is working with my high school junior to thoroughly explain and review AP biology concepts, including labs. He is timely, well prepared, and not only knows the material inside out and backwards, he is able to convey it in a manner my student can understand and absorb it. Super helpful!

Though provoking teacher

Mr. Matthew asked many great questions during the lesson to make sure that my son fully understand the concepts. He has great knowledge about AP Bio and he is good at explaining the concepts.
