Science and Mathematics

John D. Furber

I am currently not available for tutoring. Other projects are occupying my time. Thank you for your interest.

As an educator and private tutor, I have enjoyed helping my students to understand and learn their coursework in the Sciences and Mathematics, to assimilate what they need to know, to accomplish what they need to get done.

I have tutored these subjects at the University level:

Physics, Astronomy, the Scientific Method;
Chemistry: General Chemistry, Biochemistry;
Biology: Genetics, Molecular Biology, Physiology;
