From Lab to Learning – Meet Tobi Schmidt, Ph.D.

Hello! I’m Dr. Tobi Schmidt – Scientist. Educator. Mentor. Founder of Bio:Logic.

I’m Dr. Tobi Schmidt, a science education expert and cell and molecular immunologist with a Ph.D. from the Department of Microbiology and Immunology at the Stanford School of Medicine. I’ve spent over 25 years teaching, mentoring, and guiding students in biology—and I’m still as passionate about it today as I was when I first started. I offer biology tutoring and mentoring that goes far beyond test prep—I help students understand the subject deeply, think critically, and gain lasting confidence.

I’ve worked with students at all levels, from high schoolers taking AP Biology for the first time to college students preparing for research careers and medical school. Along the way, I’ve developed science programs for biotech companies to spark girls’ interest in STEM, taught for the Stanford Pre-Collegiate Program, and served on both their teaching and admissions teams.

My approach blends deep scientific expertise with a warm, personalized teaching style. I don’t just help students do well on tests—I help them think like scientists, ask better questions, and build lasting confidence in their ability to understand complex biological systems.

Many of my students have earned top scores on the AP Biology exam, won national science competitions, and gone on to study at Stanford, Harvard, MIT, Caltech, Berkeley, and other top-tier universities. Whether we’re working on coursework, test prep, or independent research, I’m here to support the next generation of scientists, one student at a time.
