I understand how to navigate the intense academic pressure of medical school and achieve top tier board scores. I scored a 269 on my USMLE Step 2 CK by focusing on a strict system of question dissection, active recall, and efficient time management. Over the last few years, I realized that my favorite part of medicine was actually the teaching side of it. I spent a lot of time working as an anatomy lab TA, where I ran review sessions to help students who were struggling with the dense material. During that time, I started holding sessions for students online, using custom visuals and drawings whenever I felt it was needed to make a difficult concept finally click. That experience taught me how to see exactly where a student is getting stuck and how to adjust my approach to fit their specific learning style.
Because of this, my tutoring philosophy goes beyond just lecturing you on facts. In our sessions, I believe it is much more important to focus on teaching you how to study and learn for Step 1 and Step 2. My goal is to make sure that when you leave our lesson, you have a rock solid foundation to continue building upon during your own independent study hours. Mastering that self study process is what ultimately leads to a truly great score. For Step 1, we will build a confident framework around core concepts and clinical anatomy. For Step 2 CK, we will focus heavily on the mechanics of the question, learning to read clinical vignettes like a detective so you can confidently differentiate between the final two choices. Whether you are aiming to pass your shelf exams, trying to break into the 260s, or looking for mentorship on the residency application process, we will build a sustainable strategy tailored to your exact timeline and goals. I look forward to working together to unlock your absolute best performance.
