Hi! My name is Ethan M., and I am excited to offer my tutoring services. I am currently enrolled in a dual-degree MD/PhD program at the University of Maryland – Baltimore, where I am training to become a physician-scientist. I also hold a Master of Arts in Biotechnology and a Bachelor of Arts in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, both from Boston University.

Hi! My name is Ethan M., and I am excited to offer my tutoring services. I am currently enrolled in a dual-degree MD/PhD program at the University of Maryland – Baltimore, where I am training to become a physician-scientist. I also hold a Master of Arts in Biotechnology and a Bachelor of Arts in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, both from Boston University. My academic journey has provided me with a robust understanding of the life sciences, biochemistry, test prep, and the admissions process. I also have a passion for English and Literature, and I minored in Classics at Boston University. I have a love for learning, and I am excited to help others excel in these areas!

In terms of experience, I have helped students prepare for the MCAT and the ACT, with a particular focus on Reading and Science. I scored in the 99th percentile (131) on the MCAT CARS section, so I know exactly how to tackle tough passages. During my time at Boston University, I worked as a professor's aide in Organic Chemistry, where I helped students find easy ways to understand complex structures and compounds. I have also mentored students in lab settings on 4 different occasions, so I know how to effectively explain scientific topics and techniques to individuals from different backgrounds. Finally, I was recently on the admissions committee at the University of Maryland School of Medicine, so I have a direct understanding of what top-tier medical schools look for in applicants.

Over the course of my time as a tutor and as an aid to teachers, I have worked to develop a teaching style that adapts to the needs of each student, using active learning techniques, visual aids, and interactive assessments. I put a strong emphasis on motivation and positive thinking, and my goal is to not only help you understand the material but also to encourage critical thinking and practical application. I look forward to helping you achieve your academic goals!

Knowledge, kind, caring tutor

I have been working with Ethan through my whole MCAT retake journey and he has been amazing. Ethan is supportive, professional, knowledgeable, and kind. He always comes prepared and is happy to explain things to you multiple times for things to click. Ethan is great about putting your mental health first while making sure you meet your MCAT goals. Every session had an easygoing environment which encouraged you to ask questions and make mistakes. He is responsive with any questions you have and thoughtful and knows all subjects at a high level. I am very happy that he was my tutor for these past few months and would 100% recommend him to anyone taking the MCAT or retaking the MCAT.

So kind and understanding. He is not only the top academically but also very generous with giving(teaching)

Ethan is the most kind, understanding and obviously helpful person you are fortunate to work with! He is not only strong(more talented) academically but is extremely helpful and understanding to get through whatever your academic journey is, whether it is work or school.

Amazing tutor

Working with Ethan is going to be a game changer in my MCAT journey. From the very first session, he demonstrated not only a deep understanding of the content but also a remarkable ability to break down complex topics into manageable, understandable pieces. Their approach was tailored to my individual strengths and weaknesses. I struggle with the CARS section, but Ethan taught me strategies to tackle this section which immediately made a difference and improved my scores on practice problem sets. What really set Ethan apart was his unwavering support and encouragement. Studying for the MCAT can be incredibly stressful, but he created an environment that was both challenging and motivating. I am looking forward to continuing to work with him!
