I am a medical doctor and graduate of DOW University School of Medicine, where I completed five years of medical education and earned my bachelor’s degree with a 3.9 GPA. I am currently a MATCH applicant and have completed core clinical training, including hands-on clinical rotations at East Tennessee State University. I have passed all three USMLE exams, including a 260 score on Step 2 CK and a recent pass on Step 3. My academic background has given me a strong foundation in pathology, pathophysiology, biochemistry, anatomy, physiology, pharmacology, and microbiology, which allows me to teach both basic sciences and clinical concepts with confidence and clarity.
I have several years of experience tutoring students preparing for the USMLE and MCAT in one-on-one settings. I have worked with medical students and pre-medical students at different stages of their education, helping them strengthen weak areas, improve test performance, and build confidence. My teaching approach focuses on identifying individual knowledge gaps and breaking down complex medical concepts into simple, high-yield explanations that are easy to understand and retain. I also emphasize active learning, concept integration, and repetition to ensure long-term mastery rather than short-term memorization.
In addition to content review, I teach effective test-taking strategies tailored specifically to standardized exams like the USMLE and MCAT. I help students develop efficient study plans, improve question-analysis skills, and manage time and exam anxiety. Each session is personalized, and I create concise, USMLE-focused lessons based on the student’s goals and learning style. My goal is not only to help students succeed on their exams, but also to strengthen their overall clinical reasoning and understanding of medicine.
