I am a dedicated tutor currently advancing through my fourth year at the University of Illinois College of Medicine at Chicago, where I am immersed in pursuing a residency in Internal Medicine with an aspiration to specialize further in Cardiology. My medical training builds upon a solid foundation in biology, specializing in Computational Biology from Nova Southeastern University, where I was honored by induction into prestigious societies such as Alpha Chi and Beta Beta Beta.

In addition to my rigorous medical education, I have spearheaded numerous research projects that span basic science, clinical research focusing on workflow processes, medical device innovation, and the enhancement of patient outcomes. These experiences have equipped me with a deep understanding of the scientific method and patient care, enriching my teaching with real-world applications and cutting-edge knowledge.

Over the past seven years, I have meticulously guided a wide array of students, ranging from elementary scholars to graduate academics, across disciplines including the USMLE, MCAT, biology, physics, chemistry, mathematics, and statistics. My tutoring approach is thoughtfully designed to transcend traditional pedagogies, integrating proven methodologies like the "Teach Back" method and spaced repetition. This blend ensures that each lesson is both accessible and impactful, facilitating deep understanding and durable retention of material.

Incorporating visual and interactive learning aids, I enhance the comprehension of complex scientific and mathematical principles, ensuring students can effectively apply their knowledge. The strategic use of spaced repetition further empowers students, reinforcing memory and mastery of crucial concepts through carefully timed review sessions. This technique has been instrumental in substantially elevating academic performance and long-term success.

My commitment extends beyond academic achievement; I strive to ignite a passion for continuous learning and discovery in the sciences.
