About Pratima

Hi! I'm a big picture nerd who loves to learn and loves to help others learn. I strive to connect all concepts to everyday life so learning can be relevant and enjoyable. Though my formal training (molecular biology and microbiology) involved learning intimately about microbes (mainly bacteria and viruses), I love all living things and have taken on the teaching of classes that have allowed me to gain knowledge of all kingdoms of life and even interactions throughout the living world (ecology and environmental science). I love hiking and exploring nature. The subjects I most enjoy teaching are general biology (both parts) for majors and non-majors, general microbiology and environmental science.

About the lesson

I will make a special effort to get to know your needs and challenges so that we can have well-structured lessons that help you truly learn the material and boost your confidence. My lessons will be highly interactive and incorporate multiple media. I use frequent quizzing to assess the effectiveness of a lesson so that I can keep building onto the learning experience or make adjustments if there happen to be gaps that become evident.

Pratima's response
Summer is very proactive and is looking ahead to the AP biology class she plans to take in the fall. She was very engaged in the session and asked questions that helped her get the needed clarification on essential concepts. It was my pleasure to meet her and get her some advance preparation.

Perfect! Pratima is the best microbiology tutor you could ever ask for! She is happy to work with you if you come prepared with topics and specific questions for each session or if you can't do that she comes prepared with slides, images and key points to help you understand the topic.

Pratima has been absolutely instrumental for me in achieving a good grade in my microbiology class which was all online and asynchronous. Trying to learn a complex subject in this format was incredibly difficult. Because Pratima is so knowledgeable on the subject she helped me connect the dots and understand big picture as well as micro connections throughout the semester.

Not only is Pratima a great tutor, she is kind, friendly and fun to work with. I highly recommend Pratima's tutoring services!

Pratima has been teaching a wide array of key concepts in Biology for several years. Her past students including those in key medical fields such as nursing, give a high rating of her ability to explain details and engage students in class discussions. Pratima takes her time guiding students through the concepts and is always willing to assist students from whatever knowledge level they are to the level they need to be. Book her quickly if she still has openings.

I worked with Pratima for 10 years in a four-year college. She was mainly my mentor and helped me with my career in education. Pratima is a caring, patient, and a knowledgeable teacher. She is able to teach a complicated concept in a very simple way to a student. What strikes me the most about her is how enthusiastic she is about teaching and how much she cares about each student. Therefore, she does her best to learn about each student and tailor her teaching method to the student’s needs. I strongly recommend her as a teacher.

Pratima was one of my favorite colleagues when we taught together at our college. She was always very concerned with making sure her students fully understood the material in her classes--from non-majors Biology to Microbiology and more. She provided the content in a variety of ways in an effort to reach all types of students. She also frequently donated her time to the tutoring center to help students at our school in other classes. Her wide knowledge of science makes her a great tutor in several subjects. Now that she is tutoring more often, I know she will be a helpful resource for many students who need assistance.

Pratima served as my introduction to the biological sciences in college. It is obvious that she puts a lot of time and effort into her teaching--and that she wants her students to absorb important information which can serve as building blocks for later, more difficult coursework. She not only challenges her students to learn and improve, but she is personally invested in the success of her students.

I have many decades of experience in research and teaching, so I bring a wealth of knowledge and experience to this endeavor. I have supervised student research, as well as taught a variety of college courses so I have in-depth knowledge of all topics that I list being experienced in. I've also been tutoring for several years so I feel justified in setting my rate where it's at. Please feel free to ask further questions about this.
