Athanasios
Trained Educator and Biologist
I specialize in genetics and molecular biology. I tutor it at all levels, high school, Bachelor's, Master's, and PhD. Each level as well as each student is different, so I adjust my lesson to meet an individual needs. The world of biology can be complex and daunting at first, but I can help you make it less so by discussing with you the fundamental concepts that govern the biological processes of a cell. I completed my PhD at the Florida State University, where I specialized in genetics an... Read more

There is much to benefit from one-on-one tutoring. When we are sitting together, I am able to focus on your child's individual struggles, and your child is forced to focus on his or her work. Your child can feel comfortable asking questions and expressing themselves without worrying about their peers. We can work together on the specific areas that are needed. This type of scaffolding can give your child the knowledge and confidence to move forward in class. I hold a NYS Professional ... Read more

The son of two English teachers, I’ve been tutoring, editing and proofreading since the 8th grade. On long car rides while other children were spotting VW Beetles, I was identifying participles and gerundial phrases. I have a Bachelor’s degree in English and a Master’s in School Counseling. As an SAT/ACT tutor I not only help students find the right answers, I teach the rules of English so they can understand *why* the answers are right. Knowing the rules means you find the answers more qu... Read more

I hold an MA in Economics, have been a professor of Economics, and currently work in finance. As for my teaching style, I like to help the student think for themselves, not just memorize answers. I ask questions and challenge the students to think critically about the material. I prefer my classes to be a discussion instead of a lecture, and I believe that is an effective method of tutoring as well. I am very patient and will take the time to make sure the student understands the material.... Read more
