Hi, I'm Kenny!

I'm a third-year medical student at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine with a passion for teaching and mentorship. I earned my B.A. in Computational Biology with a minor in Computer Science from Washington University in St. Louis, graduating with a 4.0 GPA.

I have over three years of experience as a teaching assistant for several undergraduate courses, including General Chemistry (groups of 8-10 students), Data Structures and Algorithms (groups of 5), Web Development (office hour format), and Human Genetics (lecture format with ~60 students). During the COVID-19 pandemic, I spent a year virtually tutoring a high school student in foundational computer science. As the president of a community service organization called MedEd, I taught basic science and health topics in K-5 classrooms for three years.

My teaching philosophy is student-centered, focusing on building confidence, encouraging critical thinking, and tailoring lessons to each student's unique learning style. I create lesson plans that target students’ weak areas, provide in-depth reviews, reinforce learning using practice problems, and adjust based on student feedback and progress.

As a medical student, I specialize in MCAT/SAT preparation, biology, chemistry, and computer science. I've scored in the 99th percentile on the SAT, 100th percentile on the MCAT, and passed USMLE Step 1. I know firsthand how overwhelming these exams can be and can help you tackle them with clarity, structure, and confidence. In just three months, I raised my MCAT score from a 509 to a 526 using a self-designed study plan–something I’m happy to share.

Whether you're preparing for the SAT, MCAT, high school/college exams, or just need help on where to start, I'm here to support you. I can help you master high-yield science content, build a personalized study plan, and develop effective test-taking strategies. If you're interested in receiving my free MCAT study plan or have any questions, please don't hesitate to reach out!

Approved Subjects

ACT Science

ACT Science

I scored in the 99th percentile on the SAT (1570) and achieved a perfect score of 800 on the SAT Biology Subject Test. Having successfully completed the SAT, MCAT, and USMLE Step 1, I bring firsthand experience in effective test-taking strategies and study planning. I have over three years of experience teaching STEM-related subjects to undergraduate students.
Biology

Biology

I specialize in biology tutoring with a focus on cell, molecular, computational, and human biology. As a medical student at Johns Hopkins, I combine academic expertise with hands-on experience to help students master challenging topics. I've spent over six years studying biology and conducting cutting-edge medical research. In addition, I've taught biology concepts to college undergraduates as a teaching assistant for a Human Genetics course and to elementary school students as a volunteer for MedEd, a community service organization.
Chemistry

Chemistry

I have over three years of experience as a Peer-Led Team Learning Leader for rigorous undergraduate General Chemistry courses, teaching small groups of approximately 10 students. My strong foundation in chemistry is built on many years of coursework, including AP Chemistry (on which I scored a 5), general chemistry, organic chemistry, and medical school classes. I specialize in tutoring general chemistry and biochemistry.
Computer Programming

Computer Programming

I have over two years of experience teaching computer science topics, including Data Structures and Algorithms and Web Development, to undergraduate students in small-group and high school students in one-on-one settings. I earned a B.A. in Computational Biology with a minor in Computer Science from Washington University in St. Louis, where I graduated with a 4.0 GPA. I focus on helping students develop a deep understanding of core programming concepts, problem-solving strategies, and coding best practices.

Patient and detailed!

We've had 2 sessions together so far, and Kenneth is very patient and allows me to think and solve problems and recall any knowledge that I may (and may not) have before he explains and corrects my knowledge. Plan on increasing the frequency of the sessions as I get closer to MCAT exam date.
