Private science tutoring for biology, chem, physics, enviornmental and computer science.

Dynamic, subject-specific support in biology, chemistry, physics, and more.

High school science feels like a puzzle only when the pieces don’t fit. Whether your student is staring at DNA diagrams, balancing chemical equations, or trying to visualize forces in motion, success comes from understanding the science and the strategy behind it — not memorizing facts.

At TestTakers, our science tutoring helps students uncover the root of the struggle, build mastery of core concepts, and advance confidently in their current coursework. We balance subject expertise with study skills, creating stronger thinkers —not just better test-takers.

We offer science tutoring live online, at our Manhasset office in Long Island, and through in-home tutoring.

Who Science Tutoring Helps

We work with students who are:

• Falling behind and need foundational concepts reinforced
• Keeping up but overwhelmed by complex terminology or labs
• Aiming for excellence in honors and AP science courses
• Preparing for tests (unit quizzes, finals, AP exams)

From the basics of biology to the rigors of AP Physics C, our tutors meet students where they are and help them grow.

Science Subjects We Cover

Biology

From cell structure to ecosystems to genetics and evolution — we make biology meaningful.

Chemistry:

Atoms, reactions, stoichiometry, acids/bases, and more — we break chemistry down into understandable steps.

Physics:

Motion, forces, energy, electricity and magnetism — we help students visualize and solve physics problems.

Environmental Science:

Habitats, sustainability, human impacts, and systems thinking — real-world science made relevant.

(We also support intersections of subjects and cross-disciplinary skills that help in lab reports and data interpretation.)

How Our Science Tutoring Works

1) Intake & goal setting

We begin with a conversation to understand your student’s current class structure, challenges, goals, and upcoming assessments so we can tailor the tutoring plan.

2) Identify foundational gaps

Science builds upon itself. If a student struggles with new material, we trace back to essential concepts — whether that’s basic chemistry in biology class or algebra in physics problems.

3) Teach current coursework with clarity

Once the foundation is stable, tutors help students engage with current class material through explanations, examples,
and guided practice.

4) Build critical study skills

Every session incorporates strategies that make science learning stick:

• Reading and annotating scientific texts effectively
• Interpreting graphs and experimental data
• Organizing notes and lab reports
• Preparing for assessments strategically

5) Consistent weekly sessions

Regular meeting times create rhythm and momentum — essential for reinforcing concepts, tracking progress, and staying ahead of class.

This structured approach is especially helpful for AP science courses where content moves quickly and deep understanding is critical.

Beyond Homework Help

Homework questions can be entry points to deeper understanding — but they’re not the end goal. We help students:

• Tackle complex problems step by step
• Connect concepts across units and disciplines
• Interpret scientific language with confidence
• Prepare for quizzes, finals, and AP exams with strategies, not cramming

This deeper support builds confidence, independence, and real academic growth.

Scheduling & Formats

Science tutoring is available in three formats:

• Live online with structured, interactive sessions
• In person at our Manhasset office in Long Island
• In-home tutoring (when available based on location and scheduling)

Most families choose consistent weekly sessions (often 90 minutes), giving students the time and focus they need to improve and stay current.

Scheduling & Format

We offer flexible options to match family schedules:

• In-person math tutoring at our Manhasset location
• In-home we come to your home to make life easy
• Live online math tutoring with the same structured approach

Why Families Choose TestTakers

• Personalized one-on-one math tutoring tailored to the student (not cookie-cutter lessons)
• Expert tutors who build both content and study skills.
• A clear plan and communication that keeps parents informed.
• A focus on real understanding, not quick fixes.

This blend of foundation + forward learning sets TestTakers apart
