Raised my MCAT score 10 points!
Amanda, 1 lesson with SaminSamin is, by far, the best MCAT tutor I have ever had. Her teaching method is one that absolutely gives results: I went from a 24 on our initial practice test to a 34 on my official MCAT in just about 2 months. Samin would assign practice problems as well as a study schedule to complete at home which we would then review in-depth during our sessions. She was always very patient and made sure that I completely understood the topic before we continued to the next problem. Samin is an MIT...
I'm a recent MIT graduate with dual degrees in Biology and Chemistry, and my research has been on cancer and the immune system.
Teaching has been a long-time passion of mine and I hope to continue teaching throughout my life time. I have tutored SAT Math, SAT II and various science subjects since 2006. During my time at MIT I was a teaching assistant for six semesters in Biology, Genetics, Biochemistry and Cell Biology classes, and I continuously served as a tutor in the department. In...

Raised my MCAT score 10 points!
Samin is, by far, the best MCAT tutor I have ever had. Her teaching method is one that absolutely gives results: I went from a 24 on our initial practice test to a 34 on my official MCAT in just about 2 months. Samin would assign practice problems as well as a study schedule to complete at home which we would then review in-depth during our sessions. She was always very patient and made sure that I completely understood the topic before we continued to the next problem. Samin is an MIT graduate who is extremely knowledgeable in all areas of MCAT science. I could ask her about any topic that came to mind and she could not only explain it to me but could also make me able to understand and apply it. She accurately pinpointed my areas of weakness and made them into strengths. If you are studying for the MCAT and can meet in the Cambridge area, Samin is the best tutor available. She gives professional level tutoring for an extremely affordable rate (especially because other tutors of her caliber charge $100-200 per hour). She's flexible with both meeting locations and times and is always quick to response to calls, texts, and emails. And the icing on the cake is that she is a great person to spend your time with. While she is a taskmaster when it comes to tutoring, she has a great sense of humor and is always good for a laugh. So pick Samin to be your tutor and learn from her while you can before she gets snatched up by some Ivy League medical school!

AP Bio
Just what my daughter needed to get her understanding to a better level, helped her get an A on a midterm with just 2 sessions. Highly recommend! Would definitely use her again, she’s worth it.

Great teacher for AP and SAT Biology during trouble times
In these stressful C/oVID19 times when the AP format changed, Samin reviews, practices with me, and advises me on different strategies in order to tackle the question in a short time. With her I gained confidence I needed for the new AP free responses format, while I kept on learning the concepts that the school choses to ignore nowadays, but they are still needed for SAT Bio.

Exactly what we needed for AP
My son operates at a high level but there are gaps in his knowledge. We needed to find an excellent tutor who could identify the gaps and help fill them in prior to the exam. Very excited to have him working with Samin!

Samin was great! Made the topics very easy to understand. I am excited that with her help, I will finally conquer Chemistry. Samin was patient and paced the session according to my capacity.

Excellent tutor
Samin is a great tutor! She has tutored my son for 2 sessions in chemistry. My son is a sophomore in high school and Samin is teaching him college level chemistry for a science competition. She helped him master 3 chapters in a 90 minute session, while keeping it fun and never seeming rushed. Samin is well prepared, prompt, pleasant and organized. She really knows her chemistry! I highly recommend her.
