Bio

Medical Sciences Students: I am a current medical student with extensive experience tutoring various subjects. I was a teaching assistant for anatomy at my medical college, where I held reviews for large classes as well as teaching small groups in the anatomy (cadaver) lab. I also tutored various subjects: anatomy, physiology, neuroanatomy.

Medical Sciences Students: I am a current medical student with extensive experience tutoring various subjects. I was a teaching assistant for anatomy at my medical college, where I held reviews for large classes as well as teaching small groups in the anatomy (cadaver) lab. I also tutored various subjects: anatomy, physiology, neuroanatomy. I enjoy breaking down seemingly complex topics into simple concepts that are easy to remember and most of all, being able to see the progress that my students make and the confidence they gain!

Arabic Students: I'm a native speaker of Arabic, educated in Yemen for nine years (1st to 9th grade), where I learned Modern Standard Arabic with grammar as well as Classical. I have 6 years experience tutoring Arabic on this website and independently, with over 10 years of experience. I have taught all levels of Arabic from beginner to advanced and all major dialects with the exception of Algerian/Tunesian/Morrocan dialects.

Spanish-speaking students: Si hablas espanol, puedo hablar en espanol tambien aunque no sea perfectamente. Hay similitudes entre el arabe y el espanol que me encantaria compartir contigo.

I don't believe in lecturing, but rather foster an active learning environment. I incorporate various methods and resources into the lesson, such as visuals and mnemonics (medical students) or field lessons, music, TV learning tools (Arabic students). Memorization is never the answer and I will rarely ask you to memorize! Instead, you will remember through better understanding, spaced repetition techniqu,e and other methods.

I have experience working with students of varying learning styles, including visual learners, students on the spectrum and students with ADHD. I will make every attempt to tailor the lesson to your learning style and maximize your potential!

I'm excited to get to know you and to help on your journey of learning!

Another great lesson from a great teacher!

Ava really makes learning a pleasure. The progress I see after each lesson is rewarding and motivating. Ava is great about pushing you just enough without overwhelming you, and she keeps the content relevant and useful so you can be excited about what you're learning.

Great approaches

She is patient and the approaches to studying my A & P class I believe will help. I have a quiz next week. just wish she had more availability- she was willing to travel and meet me at my university.

Ava is a great tutor! She lays out lesson plans in a very comprehensible manner, is very flexible, and answers questions thoroughly. You can tell she is a very dedicated tutor and creates a fun and welcoming atmosphere for learning Arabic.

Jazmin, 11 lessons with Ava

Amazing tutor

Ava is extremely patient and clear with me. I had a hard time at first with reading and writing and she found various ways to help me understand including graphics. Her skills are superb and she inspires me to practice and be better with each lesson. I look forward to continue working with her.

Christina, 3 lessons with Ava

Knowledgeable and Patient Tutor

I enjoyed my first lesson with Ava. We worked on the alphabet for the first lesson. She is very patient and took the time to discuss my goals and expectations to ensure whether or not she would be a good fit.
