Tutor Information
About
Hi! I’m Florian, a PhD-trained Molecular & Cellular Biologist and bilingual French/English tutor based in Toronto.
With 13+ years of academic and biomedical research experience, I specialize in Molecular & Cellular Biology, Genetics, Physiology, Endocrinology, and Metabolism. I also hold a Master’s in Endocrinology & Metabolism and completed undergraduate training with a specialization in teaching Life Sciences.
Throughout my research career, I have mentored and trained 45+ students, trainees, and research personnel, helping them understand complex concepts, develop scientific reasoning, troubleshoot problems, interpret data, and become more confident and independent learners. I have also lectured undergraduate Medical Sciences students at the University of Toronto.
🧬 I can help with:
• High-school Biology & General Science
• AP / IB Biology
• Molecular & Cellular Biology
• Genetics, Human Biology & Physiology
• Endocrinology & Metabolism
• Biochemistry fundamentals
• Introductory & intermediate university Biology
• Scientific reasoning, data interpretation & study skills
I can also provide support in French or English, and help with foundational Chemistry and Physics depending on the level.
🧠 My approach: I don't believe science should be about memorizing endless facts. I want you to understand why things work. We'll break difficult concepts into manageable pieces, connect them to real biological examples, and work through problems together.
Whether you need help preparing for an exam, catching up on coursework, tackling a difficult assignment, or simply building confidence, I'll adapt to your level and goals.
Most importantly, I aim to create a welcoming, respectful, and judgment-free learning environment where questions are encouraged and mistakes are part of learning.
Let's make science understandable—and maybe even enjoyable! 🧬
