Helping students succeed in science since 2002

 

I am a highly experienced science tutor with a passion for science, a knack for explaining difficult concepts clearly and a dedication to improving my students’ academic performance and confidence. Whether you are struggling in science or looking to ace that honors course, I can help!  My approach is one of tailoring what I do to each student’s learning style.

One size does not fit all
when it comes to learning.

 

As a science tutor, I have had the privilege of supporting students in all areas of science, from biology to chemistry, earth science to physics, anatomy and physiology to the science SAT subject tests.  The key to success in science is seeing how the various concepts within a subject build upon each other.  If you truly understand how something works, you are no longer relying on rote memorization to get you through!  I help my students build a foundation in science that enables them to move forward with confidence.

Serving Sudbury, Wayland, Lincoln, Weston & surrounding area

 

I tutor students from a wide variety of schools including Lincoln-Sudbury  Regional High School, Weston High School, Wayland High School, The Rivers School, Dana Hall, Belmont Hill, Beaver Country Day School, Worcester Academy, and Concord Academy among others.   I am equally comfortable and capable as a chemistry tutor, biology tutor, physics tutor, earth science tutor, biology SAT Subject Test tutor, chemistry SAT Subject tests tutor and general science tutor.  I also have many years of experience supporting students with their organizational and study skills. I welcome the opportunity to help your child succeed in science, and look forward to talking with you about your student’s unique needs.

You helped her move through her frustration and start learning. Physics was not an easy subject for her, and your help and encouragement made all the difference. — Eric G., Wayland parent

One of Cathy’s gifts as a teacher is her ability to see where students are likely to struggle… She stresses understanding over memorization of random facts. As a result, my son began to love and excel at science. — Kathy D., parent and teacher

John just got a 730 on the chemistry subject test and an A- on his chem. final! Thanks for your help and encouragement! — Colleen P., Sudbury parent

Cathy is brilliant at assessing her student’s learning style and tailoring her techniques to match… She was able to keep him focused and attentive... and he retained the material afterwards. He no longer felt overwhelmed! — Millie, Sudbury parent

You helped Sarah visualize what was going on in biology. You understood how she learns best and helped her navigate a difficult textbook, teacher and year! — Connie N., Wayland parent
