Akshada Shahane - Biology tutor in LA

I am Akshada Shahane, a passionate Biology tutor who genuinely enjoys helping students understand concepts rather than memorizing them. My teaching style is student-centric, structured, and highly adaptable, allowing me to work effectively with middle school, high school, and college-level learners. I focus on building strong fundamentals in core topics such as cell biology, genetics, human physiology, ecology, and evolution, while also helping students connect these concepts to real-world applications. I believe Biology becomes interesting when students can visualize processes and understand the “why” behind them, so I regularly use diagrams, digital notes, concept maps, and practical examples to simplify complex topics. I also support students with exam preparation, homework guidance, revision strategies, and confidence building. My sessions are interactive and encouraging, creating a safe space for students to ask questions without hesitation. I adapt my pace and teaching approach based on individual learning styles, ensuring that each student progresses steadily and feels motivated throughout the learning journey.
