Accent Reduction

I have six years of experience teaching ESL and specializing in accent reduction through my work with the ESL program at Catholic Charities in New Orleans. Working with adult learners from diverse language backgrounds, I focus on helping students speak more clearly and confidently in situations including work, school, and social settings. My approach combines practical communication skills with targeted pronunciation coaching to support each student’s individual goals. If you’re interested in improving your accent or overall English fluency, I’d be happy to help. Please feel free to reach out and schedule a lesson!

ACT English

I received a 35 composite on the ACT after making it my mission to learn the ins and outs of the test creators' patterns on all of the exams. Now that I'm in medical school, I'm happy to pass this knowledge on to high schoolers hoping to get into their dream college.

Interview Prep

I am a fourth year medical student at Tulane University School of Medicine with several years of experience mentoring pre-medical students through the interview process. In addition to receiving strong feedback from interviewers during my application cycle, I’m also an interviewer at my own institution, giving me a clear sense of what admissions committees are looking for. I’ve supported a number of students in strengthening their personal statements, practicing interviewing skills, and ultimately earning spots at competitive programs.

USMLE

I am an M4 at the Tulane school of Medicine, where I recently conquered the USMLE Step 1 (Pass) in 2025, and I can provide a verified score report upon request. Over the past year, I’ve tutored a number of medical students who saw a boost their NBME and UWorld scores. My teaching philosophy focuses on active reasoning, not memorization. To be as efficient as possible, I'll train you to think exactly as the NBME wants you to think. We can tailor each lesson to your weak subjects, whether that be immunology, pathology, or pharmacology.
