Hello! My name is Tanya and I recently graduated summa cum laude from the Guaranteed Professional Program Admissions (GPPA) Direct-Dental Program at the University of Illinois Chicago, earning a B.S. in Neuroscience. This fall, I will be matriculating into UIC's dental school. I recently took the Dental Admission Test (DAT) and scored in the 96th percentile Academic Average (AA) and 97th percentile Natural Sciences, giving me extensive firsthand experience with the exam and the study strategies needed to succeed.

I have several years of tutoring experience in math and English, working one-on-one with students of different ages and learning styles. I believe every student learns differently, so I tailor my teaching approach to fit each student's goals, pace, and work ethic. My focus is on helping students build confidence, strengthen their understanding, and develop effective study habits.

I seek to primarily tutor pre-dental students because I remember wishing I had a tutor to guide me through the preparation process. My goal is to make studying more efficient, less stressful, and more manageable by sharing the strategies that helped me achieve top scores. I am flexible, highly responsive, and always happy to answer questions or provide additional support between sessions. I look forward to helping students reach their academic goals!

Personal Statements

Personal Statements

I have always enjoyed writing and helping others tell their stories. During my college application process, I was accepted to 12 of the 14 schools I applied to, including several competitive direct dental programs, and received positive feedback on my personal statements. I enjoy helping students brainstorm, structure, and refine their essays to create authentic and compelling applications that highlight their unique experiences and strengths.
