About Jordan


Bio

Are you stressing about a class or preparing for an exam? Are you ready to shine? Hi, I’m Jordan, and I can’t wait to help you crush your academic goals.

Working with me is hands-on, interactive, engaging, and fun. I’m like your training wheels - we’ll practice together until you can get it right every time (even when the information is presented in unfamiliar ways) without me. I’ll push you, hold you accountable, and cheer you on the loudest. I’m attentive, focused, and truly care about...

Are you stressing about a class or preparing for an exam? Are you ready to shine? Hi, I’m Jordan, and I can’t wait to help you crush your academic goals.

Working with me is hands-on, interactive, engaging, and fun. I’m like your training wheels - we’ll practice together until you can get it right every time (even when the information is presented in unfamiliar ways) without me. I’ll push you, hold you accountable, and cheer you on the loudest. I’m attentive, focused, and truly care about my students.

I tutor for the MCAT (CARS, Physics, general study planning), SAT/ACT (all sections), premed advising (school lists, primary and secondary applications, essay revising, mock interviews), and several STEM courses (math, physics, biology) from the middle-school level through introductory-college levels.

Scores: I took my MCAT score from a 503 to 522 (131/129/130/132) over a 3-month study period. SAT 1560, ACT 35. We will find the strategies that work for you to earn strong results, too!

I am an incoming medical student, and I am slightly nontraditional – I have a degree in engineering, and I’ve worked in algorithm development, medical devices, and radiation safety for the last several years. I graduated from Massachusetts Institute of Technology with a BS in Nuclear Engineering. At MIT, I fell in love with undergraduate teaching, from mechatronics to biophysics to nuclear science, and I am so excited to tutor you, too.

College Counseling

I am passionate about turning your drafts into compelling narratives that showcase your best self, your aspirations, your motives, and your story. I was accepted to MIT, UVA, NC State, GA Tech, and more - and I did it by having a carefully considered list of schools, staying ahead of deadlines, and refining quality essays to reflect the mission of the school. Having a human touch is vital - I have reviewed dozens of admissions essays, helping students get into VA Tech, Eastern Virginia Medical School, Albert Einstein Medical School (and more), and I'm excited to help you clarify your goals and write for success!
MCAT

MCAT

I understand that the MCAT is a beast of a test - I raised my score by 19 points over a three month part-time study period by combining spaced repetition, active content review, mindset and strategy planning, mind-palace mnemonics, and more. We will apply these tricks and more to accelerate your mastery and prepare you for test day, alongside a personalized study plan that lets you keep your life and feel ready. I specialize in tutoring PS (100 %ile), CP (99 %ile), CARS (95 %ile), and general test-taking skills. I scored 522 (99th percentile) on the MCAT (Sept 2024). My score distribution is 131/129/130/132.
Personal Statements

Personal Statements

How can you bring your story to life in a way that is memorable, compelling, and authentic -- without sanitizing difficult truths or treating your growth as a transaction? I am passionate about turning your drafts into meaningful narratives that showcase your best self, your aspirations, your motives, and your story. Whether you are writing for the Common App, AMCAS, or a medical school secondary, we will break this daunting task down, together. What, exactly, is the prompt asking? First, we'll define what you want to highlight. We'll step through several drafts, revising each time for voice. Finally, we'll polish. I have advised dozens of personal statements, helping students get in to UVA, Virginia Tech, EVMS, and MIT (grad school).

CARS

Working with Jordon has been so helpful! I had no idea on how I should be approaching this section, but she did! She helped create a strategy that works for me and I’m seeing growth everyday! She’s very kind and supportive! Love working with her!

Tutor Review - Jordan

Super content-oriented and great with the material, also very flexible with schedule pre-mcat. She gets the pre med schedule and works with it. I work research and a MA full time position - for many of us the schedule is often messy - so it’s nice to have someone who accommodates so easily and prepares lectures/practice/anything you need for tutoring lessons. Puts a lot of thoughts in her tutorees.

great teacher, very nice, patient, and interactive

Jordan is a great tutor. She is friendly and very patient with my son. My son said she explained photosynthesis to him better than his teacher. He feels a lot more confident going into his quiz tomorrow. She also helped him learn ways to memorize and provided test taking strategies.
