STEM & MCAT Tutor | Mentored 200+ Students | 89th % MCAT

Sophia G.

Hi, I’m Sophia! I have mentored over 200 students as an Academic Peer Advisor at Wesleyan University, supporting their success in both STEM and writing through personalized strategies, academic planning, and skill-building. As a Wesleyan graduate with a double major in Neuroscience & Behavior and Science and Technology Studies, I tutor MCAT preparation, neuroscience, biology, chemistry, psychology, writing skills, and study strategies.

As a pre-med who scored in the 89th percentile on the MCAT, I understand the demands of rigorous coursework and high-stakes exams. My tutoring style is not one-size-fits-all — I draw from an arsenal of metacognitive strategies and use Bloom’s taxonomy to assess each student’s current comprehension. From there, I create targeted plans to build mastery, retention, and confidence, whether you’re preparing for the MCAT, tackling STEM concepts, or refining academic writing.

In addition to peer advising, I tutored introductory biology at Wesleyan and mentored pre-med students in course planning, extracurricular development, and professional preparation. My senior year, I received a university prize nomination recognizing my leadership and deep commitment to mentoring.

Since graduating, I’ve continued combining education and healthcare work: I serve as a community health worker on a clinical trial supporting post-hospital transitions for patients with type 2 diabetes, and I volunteer at Harvard Medical School, delivering interactive medical programming to Boston public school students.

Whether your goal is a top MCAT score, STEM mastery, stronger writing, or better study habits, I bring patience, structure, and proven techniques to help you succeed.
