Hi, I'm Khaoula! I'm a fourth-year medical student. I graduated with a B.S. in Neuroscience and a double minor in Biology and English literature, with Faculty Honors and Honors in Neuroscience.

One of my main passions is teaching one-on-on in a tutoring setting. Tutoring for the last 11 years, I've cultivated experience in a vast number of subjects, helping students boost their scores in science, math, and English classes as well as their overall GPA, organization skills, and study style.

My second college minor was in English Literature and much of my tutoring has been focused on writing, reading comprehension, and a mastery of the language as it applies to middle school through college classes, as well as preparation for the SAT. I've read and helped students with dozens of college essays and am also comfortable working with students who may not be native speakers. I have even worked with a college admissions team, which has helped me understand the process from the college perspective. I have hosted a college admissions video and webinar on Wyzant's platform and sat on a number of college panels for prospective students and underclassmen, providing specific advice and resources. You can check out my video here: https://www.wyzant.com/blog/things-every-college-hopeful-needs-to-know-about-the-common-app/#common-app-webinar. More recently, I volunteered on a medical school admissions committee, learning more about what it takes to successfully apply to medical school.

Please note that I have a 12 hour cancellation policy.

Since then, I also privately tutored two past students throughout the entire college process including writing the common app, answering 100-word, 250-word, and 500-word supplementary essays, and mock interviews. I have also assisted other students with these and other elements of the process as a guest in pre-college panels at collegiate preparatory high schools or one-on-one as a private tutor.
