Struggling to make sense of biochemistry? You are not alone—and there is a highly structured, better way to learn.
With over 10 years of teaching experience and a Ph.D. in Chemistry from the University of Maryland, Baltimore County, I know exactly how overwhelming biochemistry can feel. My sessions go beyond rote memorization to give students a true structural understanding, rooted in practical application and clinical cases.
One of my recent pre-med students initially found it impossible to connect pathways like glycolysis and the Krebs cycle. Through our sessions, she began seeing the bigger picture, visualizing how each molecule and enzyme plays a critical role in health, disease, and cellular metastasis.
Whether you are tackling enzyme kinetics, protein-ligand interactions, or complex metabolic processes, I combine deep knowledge from my active research in computational biology with a teaching approach that makes each concept clear and memorable. This is not just tutoring; it is an opportunity to truly master medical biochemistry.
Ready to transform your understanding? Let’s work together to make biochemistry not just manageable, but fascinating. I have a flexible schedule—book a first class to discuss what you are struggling with, and I will design a personalized curriculum to help you conquer even the most complex concepts.

About Me
PhD Scientist | GAMSAT Physics & Chemistry | Bioinformatics & Data Science (R/Tidyverse).
My passion for mentoring started early, but it has grown into a professional commitment to helping students master complex scientific subjects. As a US-trained PhD researcher, I bring both deep academic knowledge and real-world application to every lesson.
I thrive in one-on-one environments because it allows me to understand exactly how you think when tackling a difficult concept or exercise. Rather than just giving you the answer, my goal is to identify the root cause of your learning hurdles and reverse-engineer a highly customized study plan based on your specific interests.
To ensure our sessions translate into true understanding, I provide professionally structured, screen-sharing-friendly study materials, including custom LaTeX workbooks and evidence-based retention systems like Anki. Whether you need rigorous preparation for university chemistry, specialized support for the Biology, Physics and Chemistry sections of the GAMSAT (Section III), or mentorship in bioinformatics and data science using R, my teaching is tailored to your exact goals.
The most rewarding part of this process is seeing your confidence and competence grow. Because building a solid, lasting foundation takes dedication, I specialize in working with students who are committed to a continuous, multi-session learning journey to achieve the absolute best results. Let's trace your path to success together.

Are you preparing for the GAMSAT and feeling overwhelmed by Section III?
The Reasoning in Biological and Physical Sciences section is not a standard university science exam—it is a rigorous test of critical thinking, pattern recognition, and data interpretation under immense time pressure. To excel, you need more than just rote memorization; you need a strategic approach to problem-solving.
As a US-trained Ph.D. Scientist with over 10 years of teaching experience, I specialise in transforming complex scientific concepts into clear, manageable, and highly understandable lessons. My background spans advanced Chemistry, Medical Biochemistry, and Computational Biology, allowing me to seamlessly guide you through the toughest biology, chemistry, and physics questions the GAMSAT throws at you.
What you will learn & My Methodology:
🎯 Strategic Thinking: We move beyond simple memorization. I will teach you how to analyze complex questions critically, interpret data rapidly, and extract key information from dense scientific passages.
🔬 Solid Scientific Foundation: We will build and reinforce the essential principles of Physics, General/Organic Chemistry, and Biology, tailored exactly to the depth required by the GAMSAT syllabus.
📚 Advanced Learning Tools: I provide professionally structured, screen-sharing-friendly study guides formatted in LaTeX. Furthermore, we will implement evidence-based retention systems like Anki (spaced repetition) to ensure you permanently retain complex metabolic pathways and physics formulas for exam day.
💡 Simplifying the Complex: I break down intimidating topics into easy-to-understand segments using visual aids and interactive exercises to maximize your retention and minimize study fatigue.
