Science Tutoring
About
Hi All,
My name is Samantha I can tutor a wide range of Biology and Chemistry classes. I have experience tutoring high school and undergraduate students. I was a pre med student studying Biology during my undergraduate career and continued my education to get a Masters Degree in Biomedical Sciences. After finishing school I worked in cancer immunology in academia and now work for a pharmaceutical in cancer immunology. I use these subjects in my every day work and I have many tricks to help you understand and remember confusing information, and I love the subjects I teach!
I enjoy helping students understand science because too often students don't like their science subjects because they spend hours trying to memorize terms, but don't understand the material well enough to apply it. I love to open the window that teaches students how to study and apply their work to everyday life.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
Prior to our first meeting, I would prefer if student or parent could send me the topics they are struggling with, and examples such as homework questions or school material. This way I can prepare our first lesson to find the trouble areas and focus on how the student learns- so they can excel in these topics.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have a Bachelors Degree and Masters Degree in science and a professional 9-5 in Science. I have been tutoring since I was in middle school, and I understand that people learn differently.
How did you get started teaching?
When I was in middle school I used to tutor my friend in Math when they were having trouble, and when I got into high school I would get extra credit to help teach an Algebra class during my study hall. I also had a younger sister, that I was always helping with school. While I was pursing my undergraduate degree I tutored many classes and helped many students.
