Tobi is a great tutor. My daughter has been very stressed out for AP biology. She told me she has a better understanding now after Tobi taught her. Thank you!
- Sherry C. from Corona, CA
Tobi is extremely knowledgeable on AP biology. She understands the topic instantly and gives relevant insights. It was a very fulfilling session. We enjoyed it a lot.
- Steven T. from Camas, WA
Tobi has been tutoring my 9th grader in Biology and my 11th grader in AP Biology. Thanks to Tobi's guidance, they have shown significant improvement in their comprehension of the subject matter. Tobi employs effective visual aids and provides in-depth explanations that are easily understood by high school students. Additionally, she assesses their knowledge and understanding during each session. I highly recommend Tobi for all your Biology tutoring needs!

My daughter had a unit 3 AP BIO test and was totally stressing out about a lot of topics. Tobi was fast to reply when i reached out for an appointment. My daughter found her session with Tobi very helpful. She walked by daughter through all of her areas of weakness and was able to get my daughter to understand. I will definetly use Tobi again to help prepare my daughter if needed......thank you Tobi!

I?m in BIOL 1001 and my professor goes through slides at lightening speed. Tobi is magnificent at breaking down the slides and simplifying them which helps me understand what?s going on in the course and better my understanding greatly. She?s super nice and is not intimidating at all, she asks if you have questions. Overall, very good tutor I?m benefiting greatly from her assistance :)

She took the time to help me develop a study plan for my exam. She also helped me to start reviewing material and fill in the gaps or correct the notes I had! Awesome tutor and very well rounded in biological sciences

Tobi is helping my 11th grade daughter with her honors biology class . She's had two sessions so far and my daughter, who typically does not like to ask for help, wants to keep working with her. Tobi has been super helpful to keep my daughter on track and we plan to keep working with her.
- Rebecca R. from Wellesley, MA
Tobi has done 1 tutoring session with my daughter who is a sophomore in college. She started lesson yesterday with Tobi. She said Tobi explained her each topic and afterwards made sure she understood it. Tobi has also provided her with extra practice materials. She is calm and a patient tutor. Hope to continue with her.
- Debbie B. from Torrance, CA
My daughter had one session with Tobi and really liked her style. Tobi explained things very well and also take just enough breaks in between so my daughter can write notes down and absorbs them. We plan to take more sessions with her.
- Cherie Y. from San Jose, CA
Tobi tutored my daughter throughout the year and in preparation for her AP Biology exam. She is truly an extraordinarily gifted teacher. She is able to explain difficult concepts clearly, simply, and concisely. She is extremely knowledgeable in the subject and knows the content of each chapter in the text through and through. My daughter would simply tell her what topics she wanted to go over and Tobi would swiftly cover all the relevant material. For those of you searching for an AP Biology tutor, there is no need to look further, Tobi is the best!

After working with 2 other 5-star tutors, I reached out to Tobi to help my 15-year old 9th-grade son who was struggling with his biology course - specifically in GENETICS. Tobi, wasting no time, got straight to work with him and worked for 3 hours (over 2 sessions) this past weekend helping him to understand Mendelian GENETICS concepts and to solve challenging PUNNETT SQUARES & PEDIGREES problems. She also thoroughly reviewed & clarified his class notes, HW assignments, and test review sheets on both evolution and genetics. Although my son was super tired by the end of a 2-hour session (too long for him), Tobi was patient and encouraged him to keep practicing after the session. After a nap, and with revived energy, he was able to correctly apply what Tobi taught him. I highly recommend and will continue working with Tobi She is an extremely impressive and thoroughly knowledgeable tutor in biology!
- Melissa S. from New York, NY
Tobi is an incredible tutor and teacher. She's very knowledable and explains things so that difficult information is easy to understand! Will definitely use again!
- Julie P. from Alpharetta, GA
Tobi has been a life saver for this this quarter! She explains the different concepts in a way that easily understandable and retainable. She?s very thorough and ensures you understand the material before moving on. I would recommend her to anyone needing biology help, she?s awesome!
- Brionna P. from Auburn, WA
Toby worked with my daughter for a college level bio lab that had moved online during Covid-19. She was able to clearly fill in the gaps that the lectures lacked and help her understand the labs. She also responded to questions my daughter had outside her tutoring time. She increased her grade 20%-24% (waiting on one ambiguous question since the 1st exam). What a huge improvement!! Thanks Tobi!!!
