Course in Biology, Neuroscience, Psychology, Animal Behavior for those who need extra help for school, admissions exams, uni

Hello! I am currently a comparative neuroscience PhD student, and can offer tutoring in topics ranging from psychology, neuroscience, biology, behavioral sciences, to ecology, and anything related to those topic areas. I completed a master's in Environmental Biology - Behavioral Biology at Utrecht University in the Netherlands, and a bachelor's in Ecology and Evolutionary biology, with a minor in psychology/neuroscience. I have been accepted to medical and veterinary school, and after my PhD will decide which clinical path I will take. I can help with writing papers for biology/psychology, studying the material, studying for admissions exams (GRE, AP exams, honors material, etc.), among other things. Let me know what you need, and hopefully we can figure something out.

About Me

Hello! I'm Alex, a 28 year-old PhD student in neuroscience/veterinary medicine currently in the US, though I did my master's in the Netherlands and spent around 5 years abroad. I have been teaching since high school, first piano for young children, then a teaching assistant in university and my PhD as well as a running coach for young girls, and recently have been tutoring students of all ages (mainly biology, neuroscience/psychology, thesis writing) via Apprentus and Varsity Tutors. I plan on being a veterinary clinician scientist eventually, where I will teach alongside my clinical work and research. As a PhD student, I am very comfortable offering lessons in academic writing, alongside academic topics. I know you want a trustworthy and knowledgeable teacher, so please reach out to me if you have any further questions, or want to know more about me. I'm looking forward to working together!

Alexandra is an amazing tutor.
Hello! This course is aimed for those who already have a grasp on English, but would like to perfect their reading and writing abilities. I also can teach students for admissions exams in the US (such as SAT, GRE, MCAT) and in the UK (UCAT), especially focusing on the verbal reasoning abilities and writing. I am originally from the US, English being my native language, and although a biology student myself, have taken many reading and writing classes throughout my life, scoring well on admissions exams, and am willing to share my knowledge with you. Let me know what help you need, and we can figure something out.
Hello! I'm Alex and I was born and raised in the US, but my ancestry is Ukrainian. My parents sent me to Ukrainian school on Saturdays throughout my childhood, where I learned the language, grammar, writing, geography, history, and culture of Ukraine. I am well-versed in this language, and able to offer language learning classes to anyone in need of help! Let me know what level you are and what you need, and we can figure something out.
Hello! I am currently a comparative neuroscience PhD student, and I am offering tutoring for research paper writing, essay writing, and resume writing for uni, high school, graduate, veterinary, and medical school. I was previously accepted to medical and veterinary school, and after my PhD will be deciding which path I will take, so I am well-versed in graduate admissions. Let me know what services you need, and I'd be more than happy to help.

Biology and Chemistry: Secondary education - private lessons.
Need help with geography, biology or chemistry? As a civil engineer, 31, I am happy to help you! Learn at your pace and with many examples to clarify the learning material. I have years of experience in learning simple and complex material. The lessons run as follows. First, we look together for the student's biggest stumbling blocks. These can be related to the subject matter as well as to the study method. From there, I work at the pace of the student and encourage them to ask as many questions as possible. I also give tips and tricks, and improve their working methods where necessary. During the lesson I give many examples to make the subject matter more interesting and we solve exercises together. Once practiced from the lesson, I mastered challenging exercises to also test the deeper understanding of the subject matter. In this way I try to optimally prepare the student for his/her exam test. However, learning should also be enjoyable. That is why I always strive for a bond with the student through a spontaneous and positive approach. I am also very patient. All this to solve and improve the problems. Are you interested? Don't hesitate to receive me! Please come! Timo

Neuropsychological stimulation and rehabilitation for adults
Dealing with cognitive challenges? Looking for a friendly expert to guide you? Do not look any further! I specialize in psychological consulting services designed exclusively for you. Cognitive stimulation and rehabilitation in young adults is essential to enhance and maintain optimal brain performance. Some key ideas that summarize its importance: Continuous Development: Cognitive rehabilitation allows for continued development of the brain, strengthening cognitive skills and promoting stronger mental performance. Adaptation to Challenges: Facing cognitive challenges strengthens the brain's ability to adapt and respond effectively to complex situations in daily life and work. Prevention of Future Problems: Cognitive stimulation can help prevent future cognitive problems and reduce the risk of cognitive decline associated with aging. Improved Academic and Work Performance: Strengthening cognition contributes to better academic and work performance, since skills such as memory, concentration and problem solving are optimized. Emotional Well-being: Cognitive health is linked to emotional well-being. Cognitive rehabilitation can improve stress management, decision making, and emotional regulation. Promoting Autonomy: Strengthening cognitive skills allows young adults to be more autonomous, making informed decisions and facing challenges independently. Innovation and Creativity: Cognitive stimulation encourages innovation and creativity by boosting the brain's ability to think flexibly and generate new ideas. Development of Social Skills: Improving cognition also benefits social skills, facilitating more effective communication and strengthening interpersonal relationships. As a professor in Psychology, my career includes extensive experience in the design and guidance of neuropsychological evaluation, stimulation and rehabilitation processes focused on adults. In this course, I offer you a personalized cognitive stimulation and rehabilitation program that will be designed in a custom way. The program is based on the use of specialized tools for those people who wish to improve their cognitive skills, such as attention, memory, language and executive functions. It is aimed at those who have experienced brain injuries with sequelae (head trauma, stroke or degenerative diseases), those who face temporary dysfunctions that affect their usual cognitive functioning and those adults who prioritize comprehensive development and quality of life.
