science tutoring

Academic lab coaching

Science tutoring is one-on-one or small-group instruction in scientific subjects—biology, chemistry, physics, earth science—outside the regular classroom.

A tutor helps students grasp concepts, work through problem sets, and prepare for exams.

The term covers everything from a high schooler getting help with chemistry homework to a graduate student coaching undergraduates through organic chemistry.
