My name is Isabella, and I’m a third-year medical student preparing to retake the USMLE Step 1 this October. I recently took the exam and unfortunately did not pass (found out yesterday). My score report showed that I need to strengthen my overall foundation across the basic sciences rather than just one specific subject.
I’m looking for an experienced in-person tutor who has worked with students retaking Step 1 and can help me rebuild my understanding of physiology, pathology, pharmacology, microbiology, and question interpretation from the ground up. I plan to study full-time over the next three months and would like a structured study plan, regular accountability, and guidance on reviewing UWorld and NBME exams.
My goal is not just to pass, but to truly understand the material and feel confident on my second attempt.
I was also wondering:
* How many students who previously failed Step 1 have you helped successfully pass on their second attempt?
* What does your tutoring approach typically look like for students in my situation?
* Based on your experience, do you think three months of full-time preparation is a realistic timeline if I’m committed to studying every day?
I’d love to know more about your experience working with repeat Step 1 test takers and whether you think we’d be a good fit.
Thank you for your time!

My son is a rising high school senior. He loves to read novels (especially Charles Dickens) and mentioned that he would like formal instruction in essay writing. He does not want to work on a college essay; he wants formal, polished writing instruction that allows him to develop as a thinker and a writer.

I am writing to you whether you have availability for next two months. I have been studying for the LSAT since May, my target score is 165+. I am struggling with time management. I feel that I need to more improvement.
If you have an availability, I would like to work with you for one hour each week at the beginning. I look forward to hearing from you. Thank you for your time and consideration.
