Bio

Hi Everyone! I graduated from UC Irvine Summa Cum Laude with a 3.97 GPA. I also attended the former #1 ranked high school in California, Gretchen Whitney High School, where I graduated 2nd in my class with a 3.98 GPA. Since entering high school, I have had a great passion for science and medicine. I love understanding biology, chemistry, and physics at their deepest levels and sharing my knowledge with students.

Hi Everyone! I graduated from UC Irvine Summa Cum Laude with a 3.97 GPA. I also attended the former #1 ranked high school in California, Gretchen Whitney High School, where I graduated 2nd in my class with a 3.98 GPA. Since entering high school, I have had a great passion for science and medicine. I love understanding biology, chemistry, and physics at their deepest levels and sharing my knowledge with students. I have tutored independently for more than 1000 hours since entering college and am extremely excited to be joining Wyzant!

As my countless satisfied former students will tell you, I understand how to help each student thrive! Whether I have 2 weeks or 2 months, I know how to improve each student's grades and increase their scores. I develop very thorough study plans that fit each student's hectic schedule, teach the fundamental concepts of science comprehensively, and provide my students with test-taking strategies that succeed even under time pressure.

From AP Biology to the extremely challenging MCAT, I have had great success in helping my students excel. Here are just some of my students' achievements:

MCAT: 498-507 (1 month of tutoring)
MCAT: 499-506 (10 days of tutoring only!)
AP Classes: 5 AP Chem, 5 AP Calc AB, 5 AP Calc BC (1 month of tutoring)

I look forward to working with you and helping you succeed!

I have received an A in every science class that I have ever taken and received a perfect 800 on the SAT II Chem Exam. I have helped increase my students' AP scores from a 3 on practice exams for AP Chem and AP Bio to a 5 in as little as 4 weeks.

I received a 518 on the MCAT on my first attempt. I have helped countless students increase their scores by as much as 7 points in just 10 days!

Great MCAT Tutor

Rob is an excellent MCAT tutor, immediately set a course of studying and prep for my son who is a rising junior in college and thinking about thanking the MCAT in 7 mos. He has the knowledge and great tips on what materials to use and best ways to study, best of all, my son feels like he has a guide whom he can direct questions to.

Amazing tutor for MCAT AND Personal Statement/Essays

I used Rob for both MCAT prep/tutoring and for my personal statement. Rob was great at helping me understand content and strategizing the exam. When I first tried to write my personal statement, I couldn’t think of anything to write about, but when I met with Rob, he really tried to understand my life story and help create a topic that was meaningful to me and really expressed who I am as a person. He edited line by line to create something I was happy with and felt truly encapsulated my entire self. Definitely recommend using him as a tutor if you are lost on ideas or need help getting strategy down.

Very caring and intelligent tutor

Rob has given me all the tools necessary to excel on the MCAT, along with a study schedule best suited for me. He has greatly increased my knowledge for all subjects on the MCAT and helped decrease any levels of anxiety I had when it came to preparing for this exam. Besides being an incredible tutor, he is also guiding me on how to go about the application process for applying to medical school. Rob has given me a great amount of inspiration in drafting my personal statement and guiding me towards what it takes to become a competitive applicant. I feel very confident in starting the application process thanks to his advice. It’s rare to find someone like him who genuinely cares to see you succeed and is willing to help every step of the way. He’s also very responsiveness and great with time.

Outstanding, patient, knowledgeable tutor

Rob is incredibly knowledgable and adept in teaching chemistry modules in preparation for assessments. He has assisted our daughter with meaningful strategies to navigate more challenging concepts to succeed in her class. We are very grateful for his guidance and highly recommend him!

MCAT and Admissions help for an affordable price!

I reached out to Rob around a month before my test, April 29th, and it was one of the best decisions during my studies. Rob is charismatic and knowledgeable, and he helped me fine-tune some things to increase my score rapidly. Just after one session with him increased my score from 502 to 507, with a 5-point jump increase in Psych/Soc. He also gave me guidance on my application as a whole and gave me a target score that was realistic. He also, however, doesn't harp on whatever your stats are, he cares more about your experiences and crafting them into a cohesive story, which I greatly appreciated. When I was first scrolling through Wyzant looking for a tutor, I saw people charging hundreds of dollars and got overwhelmed due to me being a college student and not really having a stable income at the time. I happen to scroll across to see Rob's profile, looked at his reviews, and took a chance. It ended up paying dividends. Please don't waste hundreds of dollars on something that you can get for so much cheaper. I would highly recommend Rob to anyone!

Excellent tutor

My son is in Honors Chemistry, and started working with Rob a few weeks ago. Rob was very highly recommended to us. My son didn’t want to work with a tutor at first, but now, after a few lessons, he really enjoys the lessons and is now looking forward to them. He says that Rob explains everything in a way that makes sense, and his knowledge and understanding of Chemistry has really improved! Rob is also very dedicated and cares about his students. He truly wants to help his students and it shows! I highly recommend Rob!

Great MCAT tutor!

In only a few weeks Rob has taught me so much in terms of tackling MCAT questions, content, and breaking down concepts into simpler terms. I love his style of teaching, he is extremely knowledgeable! I highly recommend having him as a tutor!
