My name is William and I am passionate about science - Let me share this passion with you! I specialize in constructing personalized programs for MCAT test-preparation as well as AP/IB chemistry and physics.

I grew up in Minnetonka and am currently located just west of Minneapolis. I cater to all courses and age levels and focus on the highest-yielding approach for each of my students.

I recently defended my Master's degree in biomedical engineering from the University of Minnesota. During my time in school, I fell in love with teaching while serving as a teaching assistant. I began coaching students in my free time and have enjoyed it immensely!

To date, I have completed over three-thousand chemistry, physics, biology and math sessions and personally scored in the 97th percentile of the physical sciences portion of the MCAT! I approach each and every session as a unique opportunity to enliven the passion for science in each of my students.

I have a strong footing in the sciences with an undergrad in chemical and biological engineering and a master's in biomedical engineering. I began teaching in graduate school during several lab instructor positions and enjoyed it immensely. I have been coaching high-school and college level chemistry and physics for four years and focus on targeting "sticking" points in the curriculum that prevent students from excelling.

MCAT

I have a strong footing in the sciences with an undergrad in chemical and biological engineering and a masters' in biomedical engineering. I have been coaching MCAT for just over a year and have coached college level sciences for four years. I have taken the MCAT and scored well over the 90th percentile. I am well-versed in the MCAT exam mechanics and help each of my students to see which facets are problematic for them. For each student, I create a unique study program and coach them with it through exam day.

Knowledgeable and efficient tutor!!

I had my first lesson with William two weeks out from my MCAT exam day. I was worried as I struggle with the chemistry and physics portion of the exam, but William has not only been able to save me time but also gives me tips and resources to approach certain problems and to fill in any content gaps I have. William is able to instantly answer any of my questions while pulling up the perfect example to go along with the explanation. I'm so glad William is my tutor and have been much less stressed during the last stretch leading up to the exam.

Great at explaining and very patient

William's teaching surpassed my regular lessons; in just one session, I gained more understanding. His approach is effective, making learning enjoyable and insightful. Highly recommended!

Excellent tutor

William is knowledgeable and explains things in a manner that helps the student understand the material . He provided extra practice problems and was willing to check the work even after the session was over .

Gives clear explanations and promotes active engagement

William was a tremendous help for my thermodynamics course. He is clearly very knowledgeable, and he explained everything in a way that really made topics I was previously confused on click for me. I really liked how after his explanations he would often have me explain the concepts back to him or work a question on my own, which often revealed some problem areas that otherwise I would not have realized I was confused on.

Wonderful for my daughter...

My daughter is a college freshman and has been using William for support in her biology classes. She initially tried going to office hours and meeting with the TA, but I think it's been beneficial for her to work with someone 1:1. From what she tells me he reviews what she is learning and assigns extra problems that really help her with understanding the concepts. She only ever has positive things to say about the knowledge and understanding he provides.

William is excellent!

I had William tutor me in organic chemistry this semester. He’s exceptional! Always explained things clearly, gave me extra problems and tools, and asked if I had any questions before my exams. He was the best tutor I’ve ever had!

my experience was great

i recommend everyone to work with him he is knowledgeable , understanding ,patient ,honest and very helpful it was a really great experience ,and i am still wanting to work with him i am so thankful to him ,because he tried multiple times to explain the codes on python .also when i emailed him to ask him about that ,he responded me back immediately and trying to explain it to me .

Absolutely Amazing Tutor

William is always exceedingly helpful and provides a litany of practice problems both during and after sessions to ensure understanding. He is also outstanding about following up and answering email questions after sessions are over. I would definitely recommend William if you need help reinforcing your organic chemistry foundation.

Excellent Tutor

William tutored me from the start of my MCAT studying and created a study plan tailored to my strengths and weaknesses. In each of our lessons, he answered any questions I had and highlighted topics of particular importance for the MCAT. He has a great understanding of MCAT logic and can clearly explain how to think through selecting the correct answer choice for each of the sections. William is also well-versed in the various resources available for MCAT preparation and can recommend the best tools to use based on your particular strengths/weaknesses and learning style. After several months of working with William, I was happy with the practice exam scores I achieved, and felt well prepared for the actual exam. I learned a lot through William's tutoring. I cannot recommend William highly enough!

A Truly Great Experience

I only had a week or two of studying left before my MCAT when I asked William for help. I won't lie, it was a lot of hard work to try and get it all done, but I cannot thank William enough for being able to see my weakest areas and to guide me in both learning that content and how to think about the content. I am waiting to hear back about my score now, but I am beyond certain that William has helped me boost not only my score, but my knowledge as well!
