Adeline Allen
Anatomy & Physiology teacher | Tutor for 9 years
I hold a degree in Anatomy & Physiology from the University of Southern Maine. With a passion for unraveling the complexities of the human body, I bring a depth of knowledge to my tutoring sessions. Whether it's dissecting biological processes or navigating intricate systems, I strive to make learning engaging and accessible. My goal is to empower students to grasp the intricacies of anatomy and physiology, fostering a deeper understanding of the human form. Together, we'll explore the wonders of biology and unlock new insights into how our bodies function.
