Tony earned his biology degree at Yale and is headed to Columbia's medical school, so he's spent years immersed in everything from molecular genetics to ecological systems. He breaks down dense material — signal transduction pathways, Mendelian inheritance, cellular respiration — by linking each con...

Pre-dental coursework at Vanderbilt means Sarah has gone deep on the biology that underpins oral and systemic health — topics like cell differentiation, tissue structure, and how metabolic processes connect to real physiological outcomes. She's especially effective at turning dense material like cel...

Two years as a pre-med molecular biology major at Princeton gave Laura a thorough grounding in biology from the cellular level up — membrane transport, gene expression, metabolic pathways, and ecological systems. She pivoted to history and finance, but that scientific training stuck, and she unpacks...

Three biology-adjacent degrees give Garrett an unusual breadth — he's studied the subject from general principles through the organic chemistry and physiology that sit alongside it, which means he can explain how a concept like enzyme kinetics connects to both the chemistry driving it and the body s...

An English major might seem like an unusual fit for biology, but Ayako's well-rounded academic profile — including SAT Subject Test prep in Biology E/M — means she's comfortable breaking down topics like ecology, evolution, and cellular processes for high school students who need concepts explained ...

Judah is a biology major at Washington University in St. Louis on a pre-med track, which means he's currently immersed in the subject at the college level while the introductory material — ecology, genetics, cell structure — is still fresh enough to teach clearly. His 1580 SAT reflects sharp reading...

Micah earned his biology degree from Washington University in St. Louis, where he spent years immersed in everything from molecular genetics to ecology and evolutionary theory. That depth means he can unpack dense topics like cellular respiration pathways or Mendelian inheritance patterns and make t...

Most biology tutors learned the subject from lectures; Matthew learned it by running experiments in a Columbia immunology lab studying breast cancer. That research background means he can explain cellular respiration, immune response pathways, and gene expression not as isolated facts but as interco...

Zosia's chemistry degree from Yale means she learned biology through its molecular underpinnings — organic reaction mechanisms, chemical equilibria, thermodynamics — which gives her a distinctive angle on topics like enzyme function, metabolic regulation, and signal transduction that pure biology ma...

Leonard's math degree from Columbia might seem like an unusual background for biology, but it gave him a quantitative instinct that pays off when students hit topics like population genetics, enzyme kinetics, or ecological modeling — areas where the math-averse tend to freeze up. He also teaches ana...
