I have over fourteen years of experience teaching topics in biology in a wide range of academic levels, including Advanced Placement, biology for English Language Learners, and remedial. I specialize in fun ways to learn the material including the use of analogies and connections to real life. We can create memory tools together so that the material will be personal to you. **Because I have gotten many new in-person students lately, I can no longer tutor students in their homes.

Gretchen is an excellent tutor! She is very patient, knowledgeable, and easy to contact. Her passion for biology encourages my daughter's interest in learning more. After my daughter took her first session with her, Gretchen offered very helpful study tips and analogies for memorizing. With Gretchen's help, my daughter noticed a difference in her understanding on topics in biology right away and looks forward in continually meeting with her in the future! Thank you so much!

Gretchen is a great tutor. She helps my daughter learn by giving multiple application questions for her to do. She would help my daughter review particular topics before her tests, ones that were harder for my daughter to grasp. She is very patient with my daughter when she couldn't understand a topic. She was very flexible as well; the time frames provided and the locations available were always convenient.

Great tutor and very knowledgeable in all areas of biology. Mrs. Gretchen has provided excellent help to my daughter in getting ahead, delving into deeper topics every week. She has also been tremendously helpful in enforcing key ideas with my child in preparation for tests. Overall, really approachable and I would definitely recommend her as a biology tutor!

Our case is somewhat complicated: fresh immigrants, language problems, adaptation difficulties. Yet Gretchen accepted the responsibility and helped our daughter to get through the complications of new school program, terminology, understanding of AP Biology principles and approaches. Our daughter obviously enjoys the sessions, as Gretchen is very patient and has very kind encouraging attitude towards the student. What's equally important, Gretchen teaches in very clear and systematic fashion, it's easy to follow and understand. Great tutor!
