About Tova
I'm graduated with a BA in Biology from Vassar College with a 3.91 GPA and a strong foundation in subjects like Biochemistry, Cancer Biology, and Organic Chemistry. I’ve worked as a teaching assistant for Intro Biology and as a supplemental instructor for Organic Chemistry Lab, where I’ve led tutoring sessions, graded assignments, and supported students in mastering complex material. My experience extends beyond the classroom to research positions at Massachusetts General Hospital and Boston Children’s Hospital, where I gained hands-on lab and clinical skills. As a tutor, I bring a deep understanding of biology, a collaborative mindset, and a passion for helping others learn. I specialize in working with high school and college students and enjoy adapting my teaching style to fit different learning needs. Whether you're preparing for an exam or just trying to better understand your course material, I aim to make biology clear, engaging, and accessible.

My teaching approach is student-centered, adaptable, and grounded in clarity and engagement. I focus on building strong conceptual understanding before diving into memorization. I use a mix of visual aids, analogies, and interactive questioning to help students connect complex biological processes to real-world examples. I encourage active participation, frequent check-ins, and problem-solving strategies to ensure material is not just understood but retained. For students preparing for exams, I incorporate practice questions, retrieval-based learning, and exam technique refinement. I am particularly good at working with neurodivergent students as someone with a neurodivergent background.
