EMT and Future Nurse

Michael W.

I am currently a college student in California completing coursework in Pre-Nursing, Human Development, and Social Sciences, with extensive science prerequisites including Anatomy & Physiology and passing the TEAS. In addition, I am a certified Emergency Medical Technician (EMT) with hands-on clinical experience providing patient care in fast-paced medical environments. My EMT certification required rigorous training in anatomy, physiology, pharmacology basics, patient assessment, and emergency protocols, which I now apply both in practice and when supporting students academically.

Through my EMT training and work experience, I have developed strong skills in explaining complex medical concepts clearly and efficiently. In emergency settings, I routinely educate patients and families about procedures and medical conditions in a calm and understandable way. I also assist peers in reviewing coursework, preparing for exams, and understanding difficult topics such as body systems, medical terminology, and dosage calculations.

My tutoring experience includes one-on-one academic support for college-level students preparing for Anatomy & Physiology exams and EMT certification testing. I focus on breaking down complex topics into structured, step-by-step explanations, using diagrams, practice questions, and real-world application scenarios to strengthen understanding and retention. I primarily work with high school and college-aged students in one-on-one virtual or in-person settings.

My teaching approach emphasizes clarity, repetition of core concepts, active recall practice, and test-taking strategy. I adapt sessions based on each student’s learning style, ensuring they build both confidence and mastery in the subject.
