As a tutor with a strong background in science and education, I am passionate about helping students craft compelling and well-structured applications for graduate and professional schools. I graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in Molecular and Cell Biology from the University of California, Berkeley, and I am currently pursuing my Doctor of Dental Surgery degree in dental school. My experience in higher education has given me valuable insight into what makes a strong application, particularly for competitive programs in the sciences and healthcare fields.
I have extensive experience reviewing and editing graduate school applications, personal statements, and essays. I have worked with students applying to medical, dental, and other professional programs, helping them refine their narratives, strengthen their writing, and highlight their unique experiences. I focus on clarity, cohesion, and impact, ensuring that each applicant’s story is compelling and effectively communicates their strengths and motivations.
My approach to tutoring is highly personalized, where I take the time to understand each student’s background, goals, and experiences to help them present their best self in their application materials. I provide detailed feedback on structure, content, and tone, while also ensuring that their voice remains authentic. Additionally, my background in research and science writing allows me to assist students in crafting strong responses to secondary essays and research-related prompts.
Beyond application essays, I have also worked as a private tutor for middle school, high school, and college students in subjects such as biology, chemistry, and math. Whether helping students with academic coursework or guiding them through the application process, my goal is always to empower them with confidence and the skills they need to succeed.
