Course in Biology, Neuroscience, Psychology, Animal Behavior for those who need extra help for school, admissions exams, uni

From 48 C$ /h

Hello! I am currently a comparative neuroscience PhD student, and can offer tutoring in topics ranging from psychology, neuroscience, biology, behavioral sciences, to ecology, and anything related to those topic areas. I completed a master's in Environmental Biology - Behavioral Biology at Utrecht University in the Netherlands, and a bachelor's in Ecology and Evolutionary biology, with a minor in psychology/neuroscience. I have been accepted to medical and veterinary school, and after my PhD will decide which clinical path I will take. I can help with writing papers for biology/psychology, studying the material, studying for admissions exams (GRE, AP exams, honors material, etc.), among other things. Let me know what you need, and hopefully we can figure something out.

About Me

Hello! I'm Alex, a 28 year-old PhD student in neuroscience/veterinary medicine currently in the US, though I did my master's in the Netherlands and spent around 5 years abroad. I have been teaching since high school, first piano for young children, then a teaching assistant in university and my PhD as well as a running coach for young girls, and recently have been tutoring students of all ages (mainly biology, neuroscience/psychology, thesis writing) via Apprentus and Varsity Tutors. I plan on being a veterinary clinician scientist eventually, where I will teach alongside my clinical work and research. As a PhD student, I am very comfortable offering lessons in academic writing, alongside academic topics. I know you want a trustworthy and knowledgeable teacher, so please reach out to me if you have any further questions, or want to know more about me. I'm looking forward to working together!

Course for those who want to perfect their English

48 C$ /h

Hello! This course is aimed for those who already have a grasp on English, but would like to perfect their reading and writing abilities. I also can teach students for admissions exams in the US (such as SAT, GRE, MCAT) and in the UK (UCAT), especially focusing on the verbal reasoning abilities and writing. I am originally from the US, English being my native language, and although a biology student myself, have taken many reading and writing classes throughout my life, scoring well on admissions exams, and am willing to share my knowledge with you. Let me know what help you need, and we can figure something out.

Ukrainian language lessons for those wishing to learn!

32 C$ /h

Hello! I'm Alex and I was born and raised in the US, but my ancestry is Ukrainian. My parents sent me to Ukrainian school on Saturdays throughout my childhood, where I learned the language, grammar, writing, geography, history, and culture of Ukraine. I am well-versed in this language, and able to offer language learning classes to anyone in need of help! Let me know what level you are and what you need, and we can figure something out.

I hold a Doctorate in Pharmacy and 2 Masters degrees from the University of Paris V René-Descartes.
Since the beginning of my higher education, and since I established myself as a freelancer after 10 years of managerial career in the pharmaceutical industry, I have been used to regularly giving private lessons to pupils and students of all levels, Primary, Secondary and Higher, supporting them until they pass their exams.
The main disciplines in which I support students are essentially scientific.
The perspectives offered are transdisciplinary.

I graduated with a perfect 45/45 in the IB Diploma and achieved 7/7 in both Biology HL and Chemistry HL. I also have over 3 years of teaching experience.
In this class, I’ll share the strategies, techniques, and exam approaches that helped me achieve those results.
This class is focused on more than simply reviewing the syllabus. We will focus on how to approach IB science questions, apply your knowledge effectively, maximize marks, and consistently perform at a 6–7 level.

What we will focus on:
- How to approach difficult IB-style questions
- Strategies for moving from a 5 to a 6 or from a 6 to a 7
- How to understand command terms and what questions are really asking
- How to structure answers to maximize marks
- Data analysis, graphs, calculations, and experimental questions
- Common mistakes that cost students marks
- Time management and exam strategy
- Challenging 6–7 level Biology HL and Chemistry HL questions

We will work through challenging IB-style Biology and Chemistry questions step by step, focusing not only on what the correct answer is, but why the markscheme awards marks for it and how to recognize similar questions in an exam.
Whether you are currently working toward a 6, trying to push from a 6 to a 7, or simply want to become significantly stronger in IB Biology HL or Chemistry HL, this class will give you a clear and practical strategy for maximizing your exam performance.

As a Physical Therapy Doctor and top-ranked Cairo University graduate with First Class Honors, I have an in-depth understanding of human anatomy, physiology, genetics, and cellular biology. I help students deeply understand complex biological processes rather than just memorizing them.
What this class covers:
• Clear, visual breakdown of complex topics (Genetics, Physiology, Molecular Biology, Plant Biology, etc.).
• Solving past papers, exam questions, and mastering key terms to secure top grades.
• Tailored study plans adapted to each student's specific curriculum and pace.
• Practical memory techniques and diagrams to retain key biological details easily.

★ PREMIUM NATIVE ENGLISH SCIENCE TUTOR ★ Personalised science tutoring for secondary students, building strong foundations in International Baccalaureate (IB) program, UK GCSE, International GCSE (IGCSE) A-Level with targeted preparation for AQA (OxfordAQA), Cambridge (CAIE), and Edexcel exam boards.

As a registered Pharmacist and certified Public Health professional specialising in Environmental Health, I bring an established international career in health and research directly to our lessons. Alongside my professional work, I have been tutoring science since 2013 and consistently support regular international school students throughout the academic year.

I have unique first-hand experience with the IB and Cambridge international systems both as a student and as an international teacher: I completed my secondary education within the Cambridge curriculum and later taught classroom sciences at the British School in Thailand.

My teaching style is patient, highly structured, and encouraging. Because every student learns differently, I adapt each lesson to the student's age, curriculum, and individual goals. I target gaps in understanding and break difficult concepts down into logical, manageable steps rather than relying on rote memorisation.

For secondary examination-level students, I provide comprehensive, high-tier support in:
• Biology (SL/HL)
• Chemistry (SL/HL)
• Environmental Systems & Societies (ESS)
• General Science

My professional background allows me to bring practical, real-world clinical and scientific examples into lessons, making complex biochemistry and human biology highly memorable. We focus intensely on school assessments, past-paper practice, structured scientific writing, and precise exam board marking techniques.

📅 Academic term slots are limited.
