Evelyn - About your AP tutor
Hello! I'm Evelyn Nguyen, a tutor on AP platform. With a Bachelor's degree in Doctor of Medicine, I specialize in teaching AP Biology and AP Statistics to college and school students. My teaching philosophy revolves around making learning engaging and relatable for students, ensuring they grasp concepts effectively. I employ interactive techniques and personalized approaches to foster student engagement and boost understanding. Let's learn together!
Evelyn graduated from Pham Ngoc Thach University of Medicine
Teaching methodology
As an AP Biology and AP Statistics tutor, I specialize in engaging, supportive, and problem-solving teaching methods. I work with college and school students to master key concepts and test-taking strategies. To assess understanding, I include essay questions and document-based questions in my lessons. By using timed practice tests that mimic the AP exam format, I ensure that my students are well-prepared for their exams. My goal is to provide a structured learning experience that caters to individual needs and fosters academic growth.

The Tutor and Student reviewed sensory reception and perception, focusing on the ear and eye anatomy and their functions. They also discussed muscle contraction and the characteristics of different muscle types. The Tutor assigned quiz bank questions for practice and scheduled a review of the cumulative portion of the material for the next session.
Muscle Contraction: Sliding Filament Model and ATP Role
Smell and Taste: Chemical Reception
The Visual Pathway
Vision: Photoreceptors and Signal Transduction
Equilibrium: Organ of Corti and Vestibular System
Hearing Mechanism: Amplification and Transduction in the Ear
Sensory Reception and Transduction
The Student and Tutor reviewed sensory pathways and receptor types. The session focused on muscle contraction, including the roles of calcium, actin, and myosin, using diagrams and videos to illustrate the sliding filament model. The next session will involve a question bank review.
Sensory Pathways: Reception
Transduction
Transmission
Perception
Types of Sensory Receptors & Stimuli
Phototransduction in Rods and Cones
Muscle Contraction: The Sliding Filament Model
The Student and Tutor reviewed meiosis and its differences from mitosis, covering chromosome numbers and cell division phases. The Student practiced recalling information and answered quiz questions to reinforce understanding of key concepts. The Tutor assigned a quiz for further practice and planned to review upcoming lectures before the next session.
