Personal Statement

I am a research scientist with 8 years of experience teaching biochemistry, genetics, cell and molecular biology both to undergraduates and graduate students.

While an undergraduate studying at the University of Florida, I received my training in protein production and purification for rational drug design and drug discovery from the only national cancer institute in the state of Florida, the H. Lee Moffitt Cancer Center and Research Complex. From a novice, I learned how to genetically engi...

Reviews

Joseph was very personable and took the time to create in depth explanations for each concept. He made sure that I was following throughout the entire session. He is a very encouraging and patient teacher, and I feel a lot more comfortable with the material after today?s session!
- Ava K. from Newton Center, MA
Great first session! Joseph was extremely detail oriented, patient, and specific with his explanations, and it was clear that he really wanted me to understand the material.
- Ava K. from Newton Center, MA
He is very organized through his teaching. He goes over the lesson with high detail. He sets shorts checks for understanding as he goes on through the lesson.
- Miriam F. from Lindsay, CA
I didn?t really know what i needed to study but he was able to go off of a general list and prepared a plan we could go off of. He thoroughly explained everything and helped a lot!!
- Ava K. from Manvel, TX
Very thorough, kind and helpful! He was able to help me with difficult problems. I would definitely highly recommend him as an orgo tutor!
- Kaela V. from Boca Raton, FL
Thanks to Joseph's help I was able to get an A in my college biochemistry course. Despite starting off the term with very little confidence or knowledge in the subject, I was able to meet with Joseph before my first exam and he quickly helped me catch up on topics I found confusing. He expanded on the class materials I gave him and used examples from the real world and his own lab experiences to make complicated topics more understandable. He is also extremely accommodating and was willing to meet on short notice and at any date and time, even the night before a big exam. After a number of sessions with Joseph, I can easily recommend him as one of the best tutors I've ever had!
- Justin S. from San Diego, CA
Joseph is great at explaining concepts in an orientated and detailed way. He is also extremely responsible and preped the lesson well (he actually went through all the materials that I sent him before our session and even did the problems!) I would highly recommend Joseph!
- Sophia Z. from New York, NY
Joseph helped my daughter with studying for final chemistry cam. He explained each concept and was helpful in making sure she understood everything. She said she finally understood what was happening in class.
- Avishag E. from Miami, FL
Joseph and I went over several different types of chemistry. My professor has a way of teaching that just didn't come across very clearly. Joseph was able to break it down so I was able to understand and grasp the concepts.
- Dalton H. from Fullerton, CA
Can't say enough great things about Joseph! I have met with multiple tutors in an attempt to make it through Physics 1, and flunked the first exam (prior to meeting Joseph). I found Joseph 3 days before Exam 2 and knew essentially nothing about the exam content. After meeting with him just a couple of times within days of the exam, I was able to grasp several concepts, understand physics for the first time this semester, and did significantly better on Exam 2. Joseph makes it very easy to ask questions without fear of judgment and is able to explain things at the most basic level if needed. He adapts very quickly to your learning style and level of understanding and adjusts his teaching style accordingly.

I have had one lesson with Joseph so far where we started off reviewing basics for biochemistry and then went into how to use Henderson-Hasselbalch equation for buffer calculations. After the lesson, I went to class and actually knew some of what was being talked about for the first time.
- Leah A. from Hollywood, FL
My college freshman son fell a bit behind in his general chemistry class. After a few lessons with Joesph he got caught up and was ready to tackle his final exam. My son said that Joseph was patient and really good at explaining things. Thank you, Joseph!
- Carrie D. from Santa Monica, CA
Joseph helped me with complicated chemistry assignments and he did a wonderful job by teaching me and breaking down everything for me to understand. I highly recommend him and definitely will use his help again.
- Bardia S. from West Hollywood, CA
Great explanations and super understanding! Has cooperative characteristics. I desperately needed a tutor for my thermochemistry test (for ap chemistry) and he knew how to explain everything just perfectly. His teaching tactics are great if you?re confused about the overall concepts of topics. I was confused about all the concepts and he nailed it with the explanations!
- Andia N. from Irvine, CA
Biology 1301 - Joseph has helped me improve my grade by explaining and demonstrating biology's scientific processes, particularly at the molecular level. Thanks, Joseph!
- Gina S. from San Antonio, TX
Joseph is the true MVP. He?s one of the best tutors I?ve ever had. If you are taking biochemistry Joseph will make it understandable.
- Daniel G. from Watsonville, CA
Joseph does a great job at explaining the complex topic of biochemistry, and communicates them in laymen's terms that is easier to understand. He comes extremely prepared to each session with all work done before, which makes the sessions very efficient. I have done well with the assignments he has reviewed with me, and I look forward to using him for additional work in this class.
- Kirsten H. from San Francisco, CA
Did a fantastic job helping me prepare for an exam. In one session I went from nervous to completely confident! Has a great teaching style and explains content in a way that is both interesting and easy to understand. Highly Recommend!
- Max G. from Newtown, PA
I hired Joseph based on his bio and overall expertise, but I had to make sure we're a good fir for one another. I messaged him to let him know about my background being in marketing and not life science related, and that I needed a tutor with his realm of expertise for this reason. He was patient, asked all of the right questions, and created/tailored a plan which specifically met my needs. He's a great tutor not just on paper, but he takes his time and stops to ask if you're 'getting it' along the way.
- Sandis N. from Ladera Ranch, CA
Joseph was very open to anything I wanted to say about the lesson concerning my daughter. I watched the recorded lesson and I like how he asked where she was comfortable in each step of each problem so he knew how to begin each step. He was very nice and she actually said he was the best so far!
