About Garrett
If I was looking for a tutor, I would want someone who was highly successful as a student and has perfected teaching you understanding through 10+ years and 800+ hours of tutoring.
I achieved straight A’s in all pre-medical courses (3.98 undergraduate and 3.94 PhD GPA) and have effectively helped my students achieve A/B’s. Through my years as a student, tutor, and TA for introductory through graduate-level biology, chemistry, and physiology, I offer a unique level of content expertise and first-hand knowledge preparing for these exams.
At the University of Kentucky, I took graduate level physiology with the same professors who teach the undergraduate courses, and have direct experience tutoring those courses. I am a perfect fit for those taking the Elementary Physiology (206), or higher level courses.
Teaching has always been a large part of my life, starting in high school. My experience includes being a former lecture TA for Organic Chemistry for 2 years, helping over 200 Organic students through problem-based review sessions and individual help, leading review sessions for doctoral students (physiology), as well as 100+ hours of tutoring high school students and elective STEM courses for non-majors.
The wide range of students and different complexity levels has allowed me to perfect breaking down complex content into manageable learning for you and adapt my teaching to your personal learning style.

I offer tutoring for all, from high school to graduate students, in the natural sciences.
For high school: all science courses.
College, all biology courses, General Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, Biochemistry, Physiology.
Graduate: Biology, Physiology, and Biochemistry.
I actively seek the root cause of confusion and don't give up teaching understanding until it clicks for you.
Before each session, I will review your specific content. I will develop a highly individualized plan for that session. No more ineffective, chaotic studying--get concrete study plans to make overwhelming courses less stressful and manageable.
I don’t only passively answer your questions; I will actively test your knowledge for misunderstandings and gaps to ensure you truly understand and don’t miss exam questions because of them. I will actively ensure you walk away confidently understanding core concepts. I can also provide practice tests that help prepare you for your exam and help us focus and be more efficient with your time.

I know Garrett through tutoring, and he has been one of the most patient and helpful tutors I’ve worked with. He explains things in a way that actually makes sense instead of just rushing through problems, and he always makes sure I understand before moving on.
What I appreciate most about his teaching methods is how adaptable he is. If I don’t understand something one way, he finds another example or explanation until it clicks. He also keeps sessions relaxed and encouraging, which makes it a lot less stressful to ask questions or admit when I’m confused.
One experience that really stood out was when I was struggling before an important exam. Garrett took extra time to go through practice problems step-by-step with me and helped me focus on the concepts I was weakest in. By the end of the session, I felt much more confident, and I ended up doing way better than I expected.
Garrett tutored me last semester for physiology 206. He was so patient and knowledgeable while helping me learn the content. He also provided me with tons of practice exams he made which really helped me prepare! I truly recommend Garrett if you are in need of any tutoring. By far the best tutor I’ve had!
I strongly recommend Garrett! He is very knowledgeable about organic chemistry especially when are a novice to the subject. Garrett was very patient with me when I struggled with certain topics, and he came well prepared for the tutoring session. He is also quick to respond to your messages as well!
Garrett is an outstanding tutor and mentor. I worked closely with him for years, and he consistently explained complex concepts in a way that was clear and actually clicked! He is patient and encouraging. He also adapts his teaching to the student’s needs to ensure that you truly understand the "why" behind each concept. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and supportive tutor.
I would highly recommend Garrett as an organic chemistry tutor. To give a bit of background, when Garrett was my tutor, I was taking a graduate-level biochemistry course that relied heavily on the fact that most students had taken multiple organic chemistry courses beforehand. I had not taken organic chemistry before, and in the past had struggled with previous chemistry courses in undergrad. Given those circumstances, Garrett was incredibly approachable and patient during our tutoring sessions. He clearly was very knowledgable and comfortable with the material, which gave him the ability to adapt his explanations to how I thought about the material. With his help, a frustrating and stressful class experience turned into my having a rich understanding of the subject matter, and actually enjoying the class. I entered that class being told a student who hadn't taken organic chemistry was guaranteed to fail, and finished that semester with a high B. I 100% attribute that result to Garrett's teaching style. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!!
