Rosalia
Biology, Genetics, Immunology, Hebrew and Russian, a PhD level tutor
I have years of experience mentoring and tutoring graduate and undergraduate college students, young adults and children. My teaching philosophy is to teach and provide tools so the student could eventually be able to succeed on his/her own. I concentrate on developing Scientific thinking through leading questions. With young students, I play games, build puzzles and work on logic riddles in addition to their regular curriculum, to develop math and scientific thinking. I tutor Cell Biology, ...

Rosalia is an extraordinary tutor. My freshman daughter was having a very hard time understanding biology until she started sessions with Rosalia...she even scored in the advance level on the MCAS after working with Rosalia! She is also very patient, easy to schedule with and extremely knowledgeable.

I started seeing Rosalia about halfway through a term in which I was taking a 200-level cell biology class. I went from a D average to ending the term with a B after I started working with her. She is very knowledgeable, and was always available. She'll answer any question you have by email if you forgot to ask in a session and she does a very good job of relating the material learned in the course to real world examples. I definitely do not regret having started seeing her for help.

Rosalia is patient and offers good feedback for speaking and writing Hebrew. She explains things during sessions and is good about pulling in outside resources as well. Appointments are easy to set up and have definitely helped me improve; Rosalia is very helpful and patient and a great person to have a conversation with!

We hired Rosalia as a tutor for my daughter in genetics. She is a student at Boston University and needed some additional study methods. Rosalia not only went over all the material, my daughter says Rosalia has the unique ability to relate genetics to real life situations and uses great examples. She has did really well on her last exams, and has the added confidence going into finals week. Thank you Rosalia for all of your help. Signed: A very proud DAD

I learned about the biogeochemical cycles. I think Rosalia is very good at explaining each topic and she really gets the point across.

Rosalia helped me to prepare for my Genetics final. There were certain subjects I knew I needed help on and others I hadn't realized I needed help on. Rosalia, patiently and kindly, went over all the material with me. Her examples and explanations were enthusiastic and clear. She's the best tutor I've found through WyzAnt. She made meeting with her enjoyable, and even gave me the confidence that I needed to do well on my final. I would highly recommend her as a tutor.

Rosalia was incredibly patient, and talked me through PowerPoint slides covering "Enzyme Kinetics." She was a genuinely friendly person, and she helped increase my understanding of variables, equations, graphs, and more. She also gave examples of how this subject applies to the world.

We worked on Immunology practice problems. Rosalia is caring and she knows her stuff ! Will work again with Rosalia.
