Hi, my name is Michael H., and I am dedicated to helping students excel academically and achieve their goals. I am currently a Ph.D. candidate in the UCSF-UC Berkeley Joint Program in Bioengineering, where I maintain a 4.0 GPA while researching innovative CRISPR-based tools to study gene regulation. I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Bioengineering with honors and distinction from Stanford University, where I graduated with a 4.12 GPA and received awards like the Henry Ford II Scholar Award for highest academic achievement in engineering. My academic journey has equipped me with a strong foundation in STEM subjects and a passion for teaching.
I bring years of teaching experience to my tutoring. As a teaching assistant during my Ph.D., I led small-group discussions and mentored students in advanced bioengineering coursework. At Stanford, I worked as a peer tutor for chemistry, supporting undergraduates in mastering complex material. My teaching style focuses on the individual goals and needs of each student. Whether a student is working to grasp challenging concepts, prepare for a big test, or gain confidence in a subject, I excel at setting clear, achievable milestones and guiding students step-by-step toward their goals.
In addition to STEM subjects, I specialize in standardized test preparation and admissions guidance for both college and graduate programs. I have a proven track record of excelling on exams like the SAT, ACT, and MCAT, and I teach strategies that help students perform their best on test day. My deep expertise in biology and bioengineering makes me particularly well-suited to guide students preparing for rigorous STEM-related admissions processes. Whether you’re navigating college applications or aiming for a top-tier graduate program, I offer tailored support in crafting compelling essays, acing interviews, and standing out as a candidate. Together, we’ll set achievable goals and build a strong foundation for success.
