Hello, I'm Ishaan!

I graduated with distinction from Duke University, holding a degree in Philosophy and complementing that with minors in Chemistry and Science & Society Studies.

My tutoring approach is deeply rooted in promoting a thorough understanding of the subject matter. While memorization techniques are essential, I prioritize methodologies like scaffolding and other proven learning strategies to ensure comprehensive mastery. While I prepare structured lesson plans, I'm also flexible in tailoring my approach to cater to each student's unique requirements, be it content coverage or practice question reviews.

During my tenure at Duke, I gained experience tutoring in subjects such as Biochemistry and Physics. I'm proud to share that students I tutored, who initially averaged grades of B or B+, concluded their courses with remarkable A or A- grades. Post-graduation, I've honed my skills further as an MCAT tutor, accumulating over 370+ hours of tutoring experience. My students have seen a median increase of 11+ points, with my most improved student improving 18 points! This journey has given me the privilege to guide a diverse group of learners, from current college students to non-traditional students who've been away from formal education for over a decade.

Opting to work with me is not just about having a tutor; it's about gaining a dedicated accountability partner. I'm committed to helping structure your studies seamlessly around your work, school, and broader life commitments.
My ultimate goal is to witness the success of each of my students. I see myself not merely as an instructor but as a catalyst, keen on unleashing the potential within every learner. I pride myself on being highly responsive, and I'm always available for any queries you might have. Please don't hesitate to reach out for a complimentary 30-minute consultation.

Outstanding MCAT Tutor— Absolutely Worth It

I don't usually write reviews, but if you're looking for an MCAT tutor who genuinely cares about you and wants you to succeed, Ishaan is the real deal. I came in with a pretty weak background in the sciences and felt completely overwhelmed trying to structure my prep on my own. Working with Ishaan completely changed that. From our first session, he helped me build a realistic study plan tailored to my timeline, strengths, and weak areas. He's extremely organized, provides actionable feedback, and explains concepts from the ground up without assuming prior knowledge. He's also incredibly flexible and responsive, always working around my busy work and school schedule, which made it so much easier to stay consistent without adding stress. What stood out most is that Ishaan has been in this exact position before and genuinely understands how overwhelming MCAT prep can feel. Working with Ishaan has helped me realize that I am 100% capable but that having guidance from someone who knows the process firsthand and has successfully helped other students through it makes all the difference. So if you're on the fence about getting an MCAT tutor, this is your sign! I truly can't recommend Ishaan enough.
