About Me
Hi Everyone! My name is Mr. Marc Lewis. I am a high school biology teacher in New York City and a rising M1 medical student.I have been in education as a tutor, teaching assistant, and now teacher for the past 10 years.
My expertise is in French language & linguistics, Creole studies, and biomedical sciences. While I teach biology in the class, I have also been a private French instructor for the past 5 years. As someone from a Creole family from Louisiana, I did not grow up hearing much French. But it was always an important part of me. I started learning French as a child, and now I speak it fluently. I love teaching people my language. I also love teaching people about the Creolized communities that I grew up around. Please do not hesitate to reach out for any questions!

In this class, I will present an overview of biology, which includes several fields such as physiology, molecular biology, cell biology, evolution, ecology, etc. We will also go over basics of science. This class is designed for individuals who have no experience in biology. If you do have experience, I will be offering a college level-level class.
This course will explore the history and origins of Creole communities around the world.
Students will analyze these communities through the lens of identity, music, and food to better
understand the unique blend of African, European, Indigenous, and sometimes Asian cultures,
that formed a novel, “creole” society. While special focus will be given to French Creole
communities, students will also become acquainted with a broader definition of Creole that can
be applied to Hispanic, Anglophone Caribbean, and Dutch Caribbean territories. At the end of
this course, students will confidently recognize Creole communities worldwide and will be able
to explain the history of creolization.

This online class can be modified for all levels. In the beginner classes, we will start from the basics of the French language, including grammar, pronunciation, accent mark studies, and Francophone studies. We can also modify each lesson to be anywhere between 0.5 and two hours.
French is a global language, spoken on every major continent. Even where French no longer holds official status, it very well might hold an official status. I can confidently build both fluency and proficiency as well as build your understanding of the francophone world.
In this class, I will present an introduction to pharmacology. As a former alcohol and cannabis researcher, I had to learn a lot about what substances commonly referred as drugs are AND what they do to the body. In this course, we will study major drug classes. We will read some of the latest literature on these drug classes. We will also explore how pharmacological studies could help inform public health legislation.
** We will have to purchase the textbook out of pocket, but we might be able to get a PDF**

Teaching chemistry to school and university students in a simplified mannerHello students! Do you find it difficult to learn science subjects, especially chemistry? This may be because chemistry contains some difficult or complex concepts or terms. If you are one of these, do not worry!! Hello and welcome to you, my students, in the right place to solve this problem through simplifying science lessons, especially chemistry. Through these lessons, we will learn together how to deal with difficult-to-understand matters and terms, because I have extensive experience extending to more than 15 years in conveying complex concepts in a clear, easy and simple way. My goal is to make science and chemistry in general and organic chemistry in particular wonderful and understandable for everyone. As a dedicated teacher, I create an interactive and stimulating learning environment for my students using the latest methods. I am ready to share my passion and guide each student towards excellence and success in the field of science and organic chemistry and in studies in general, as I work as a student advisor in an international institution. In addition, I have excellent communication and presentation skills and am patient and calm when teaching. In addition, I constantly follow up on my students' progress and regularly evaluate their understanding through continuous solution of objective questions, as I care more about understanding than memorization. On the other hand, I also maintain good follow-up with parents. My teaching approach is directed towards achieving the highest results, with a focus on helping students understand and master information.
For university students or master's and doctoral students, I teach the course of natural product chemistry or phytochemistry. In this course, we will learn about the methods of extracting, separating and identifying the chemical form of active chemical compounds (biologically active secondary compounds) from natural sources, such as medicinal and aromatic plants. We will also discuss what is known as chromatography, spectroscopy devices, spectroscopy, mass spectrometry and magnetic resonance analysis. In addition to knowing some important applications of these active materials in various fields, such as the pharmaceutical industry, agriculture, etc. We will also learn the practical methods that are carried out in the laboratory to conduct toxicity, antioxidant and diabetes analyses, etc.
Finally, "for those interested in scientific research" there is a course dedicated to knowing what scientific research is, how to choose a research point, how to write scientific research and how to find the appropriate journal for publication and everything related to this topic.
Experience: About 20 years of practical experience in the field of chemistry, medicinal and aromatic plants and pharmacy with parallel training and private lessons for chemistry curricula.
With my qualifications and experiences, as I hold a master's degree and a doctorate in organic chemistry (chemistry of natural products), in addition to other postgraduate certificates and a doctoral scholarship in pharmaceutical sciences in Belgium from the Erasmus Mundus organization affiliated with the European Union.

Sciences Tutoring, Homework and Exam Support (ages 8-16)Sciences are some of the most challenging subjects in primary and middle school, and some of the most exciting nonetheless; I will help your child see the beauty and simplicity in the heart of physics, chemistry or biology, and thus excel at them.
My approach is flexible. I can do any of: re-explain difficult material to the student; help with homework; supervise and guide them in preparation for exams and tests. All my teaching, however, is always accompanied by quizzes and questions to ensure understanding and gauge progress.
I'm a high-school student specialising in these subjects, consistently scoring best-in-school scores for them for the past 5 years. Although my main area of interest in mathematics - I am a member of the Cyprus National Mathematics Team - my mathematical and educational passion swiftly translates into science tutoring talent. I already possess experience in teaching sciences, teaching a student in 9th grade biology.

IB Biology SL tutoring for those in need of extra support with anything biology-related, whether it's to do with anatomy or plants!I completed Biology HL in IB with a 6 overall. I am now studying it at the university level and am ready to help students struggling with IB Biology SL. I am familiar with the syllabus and can help students break down complex topics into simpler concepts that are easy to digest.
We will begin with a lesson in order to get to know each other and see whether our goals align. We will discuss what exactly you need help with and make a weekly tutoring schedule. At the end of every class I expect students to let me know what they need help with next time or tell me 3 days before the next lesson at the latest. This ensures each class makes the most of our time together. At the beginning of the next lesson we will do a few practice questions to revise out previous class and continue with the next desired topic.
I am looking for students who are open to receiving constructive criticism. I promise I will approach all of our lessons with patience, kindness, motivation and support!
