He teaches by showing how biochemistry synthesizes organic chemistry, cell biology, and thermodynamics into a single coherent story, so each pathway feels like a logical extension rather than a separate thing to memorize. Rated 5.0 by students.

David's neuroscience training at Yale meant wrestling with biochemistry from the nervous system's perspective — neurotransmitter synthesis, ion channel biophysics, and the metabolic demands that make the brain consume a disproportionate share of the body's glucose. Now pursuing a graduate degree in bioethics, he brings that mechanistic grounding to topics like amino acid chemistry and membrane transport, connecting each reaction to the biological system it supports. Holds a 5.0 rating.

Managing an immunology lab means Matthew doesn't just teach enzyme kinetics, protein structure, or metabolic pathways from a textbook — he uses them daily in his breast cancer research at Columbia. He walks through topics like signal transduction, amino acid chemistry, and lipid metabolism with the kind of specificity that turns confusing diagrams into logical sequences students can actually reason through.

Enzyme kinetics, metabolic pathways, amino acid structures — biochemistry asks students to hold an enormous amount of detail in their heads while still thinking mechanistically. Emily's pre-med coursework and global health studies at Cornell gave her a deep familiarity with how biological molecules behave at the chemical level, and she teaches students to see the logic connecting protein structure to function rather than treating each pathway as an isolated list.

Dental students live in biochemistry — enzyme kinetics, metabolic pathways, amino acid structures — and Josh is right in the middle of that curriculum at Penn. He unpacks topics like glycolysis and protein folding by tying each reaction to a biological consequence, which turns a wall of chemical structures into a story that's far easier to retain.

Enzyme kinetics, metabolic pathways, protein structure — biochemistry demands that students hold chemistry and biology in their heads simultaneously, which is exactly what medical school trains you to do daily.

He breaks down dense pathway diagrams into step-by-step logic that actually makes sense.

Thomas holds both a biochemistry and molecular biology degree and a master's in biology, which means he's worked through the full gauntlet — from amino acid properties and enzyme mechanisms to the regulatory networks controlling gene expression. That dual-layer training lets him teach something like oxidative phosphorylation by building it up from the organic chemistry of electron carriers before zooming out to the cellular energy budget. Rated 4.8 by students.

I am a PhD student at SUNY Downstate Medical Center studying Molecular & Cellular Biology. I graduated from Columbia University with a Bachelor of Arts in Biochemistry. I love to teach, mostly because of the impact of great teachers throughout my academic career. I think learning can be really fun, if teachers think outside the box and really challenge themselves to find novel ways of conveying concepts to students. Tried and true methods are always great in the classroom, but to work one-on-one with students requires a different approach. It's also critical that learning be something students want, not grudgingly sit through, so that their academic success is tied to their ability to understand and engage the material, not to what score they get on an arbitrary test.

Enzyme kinetics, metabolic pathways, amino acid chemistry — biochemistry sits right at the intersection of Umar's biology degree and his medical school coursework. He unpacks dense topics like the citric acid cycle or protein folding by tying each reaction to a physiological consequence, which makes the logic of the pathway easier to internalize than rote memorization ever could.

Planning for medical school with an eye toward neurology, Mary already teaches science and math daily as a teaching assistant in the Bronx — and her biology background across AP, IB, and college levels means she's comfortable digging into the molecular detail biochemistry demands. She breaks down topics like cellular metabolism and enzyme function by connecting the organic chemistry logic to the biological systems students are already familiar with, making dense pathways feel less like arbitrary memorization.

Studying neuroscience at the molecular level meant Andy spent serious time with enzyme kinetics, metabolic pathways, and protein structure — the core of any biochemistry course. He tackles topics like glycolysis, the citric acid cycle, and amino acid chemistry by emphasizing the logic behind each reaction rather than brute-force memorization.

Three years teaching high school biology in New Jersey meant Sasha was constantly translating the molecular underpinnings — enzyme function, cellular respiration, macromolecule structure — into language her students could actually use. Her master's in science education and undergraduate biology training let her bridge the gap between the organic chemistry details and the big-picture biological questions that give biochemistry its purpose. She's especially sharp at breaking down metabolic regulation so each control point feels like a logical decision rather than an arbitrary rule.

Enzyme kinetics, metabolic pathways, and protein structure all clicked for Jay during his combined B.S./M.D. program at Sophie Davis, where biochemistry wasn't just a course but the foundation for clinical reasoning.

Lab work ranging from acute respiratory distress syndrome research to diabetes management studies gave Ben a firsthand look at how biochemical pathways behave when they break down — which turns out to be the best way to understand how they work normally. He teaches topics like enzyme regulation and metabolic integration by tracing what goes wrong in disease states, then reversing the logic so each mechanism clicks into place. Rated 5.0 by students.

As a biochemistry major at Barnard conducting neural engineering research, Meghna is immersed in the material she teaches — enzyme kinetics, protein structure, metabolic regulation, and membrane transport. She connects lecture-heavy topics like the citric acid cycle or amino acid chemistry to the lab and research contexts where they actually matter, which makes retention far easier.

Enzyme kinetics, metabolic pathways, protein structure — biochemistry sits at the intersection of biology and chemistry, and Luke's neuroscience degree required deep fluency in all of it. He teaches students to trace the logic of a pathway rather than brute-force memorize every intermediate, which makes exam performance far more durable.

I am a graduate of Stony Brook University. I received my Bachelor of Science in Psychology with a focus on the sciences as I followed a pre-dental course track. Since graduation, I have applied to and been accepted to the Stony Brook University School of Dental Medicine, which I will be attending starting in August. I had previously been an SAT tutor with a test prep company for two years and I have experience in tutoring college level Physics at my University. As a result of my work experience and college education, I am proficient in all the SAT sections, Biology, Chemistry, Physics, general Essay Writing, Biochemistry, and Psychology. I personally enjoy tutoring SAT Critical Reading and Physics the most. To me, language is beautiful and I love exploring and discussing the mechanics of analyzing literature (as students must do on the Critical Reading Section). Physics, on the other hand, explains many of the wondrous everyday phenomenon around us. As a child, I would often think about why things moved the way they did and physics gave me those answers. I enjoy traveling and have been to several US states, Egypt several times, Australia, Italy, Mexico, and the Caribbean. Some of my most memorable experiences include scuba diving in the Great Barrier Reef and sky diving. I speak Arabic semi-fluently and I enjoy reading and training in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and kickboxing. Overall, I am very approachable and patient and will do my best to serve you as a tutor!
