About Adrian


Bio

I am an MD/PhD student currently in my clinical years, with a strong foundation in both basic sciences and applied clinical reasoning. I have completed extensive coursework in anatomy, physiology, biochemistry, neuroscience, and pathology, and have passed the USMLE Step 1. My research has deepened my understanding of physiology, molecular biology, and systems-level integration—skills I use regularly in my tutoring.

I am an MD/PhD student currently in my clinical years, with a strong foundation in both basic sciences and applied clinical reasoning. I have completed extensive coursework in anatomy, physiology, biochemistry, neuroscience, and pathology, and have passed the USMLE Step 1. My research has deepened my understanding of physiology, molecular biology, and systems-level integration—skills I use regularly in my tutoring.

I have over 2 years of experience tutoring students at various levels, including undergraduate, post-bacc students. I’ve worked one-on-one and in group settings, both as a volunteer tutor and as a teaching assistant for college-level calculus course. Many of my students have been pre-med or in allied health tracks such as nursing, physical therapy, and exercise science.

My tutoring style is adaptive and student-centered: I believe in meeting learners where they are. I focus on breaking down complex topics into digestible frameworks, using active recall strategies, visual aids, and high-yield concept mapping to help students truly understand (and retain) the material. I tailor sessions to the student’s goals—whether it’s mastering foundational biology, preparing for finals, or scoring well on Step 1.

Approved Subjects

Anatomy

Anatomy

I have a degree in Exercise Physiology, which included advanced coursework in musculoskeletal anatomy, kinesiology, and human physiology. Additionally, I have completed full cadaver-based anatomy during medical school, covering gross anatomy, histology, and neuroanatomy. I’ve tutored students in anatomy, using a student-centered approach that emphasizes visual learning, clinical application, and spaced repetition for long-term retention. My experience allows me to break down complex topics—like muscle origins/insertions or organ systems—into clear, understandable concepts tailored to each student’s level.
Nutrition

Nutrition

I am an MD/PhD student with a strong foundation in human physiology, metabolism, and evidence-based nutrition. I’ve taught undergraduate and pre-med students in topics ranging from macronutrient function and micronutrient needs to clinical applications of nutrition in disease prevention and performance. My approach emphasizes clarity, science-backed principles, and tailoring information to each student’s background—whether you’re studying for an exam or trying to better understand how the body uses food. I’m passionate about helping students connect nutrition to real-world health and academic success.
Physiology

Physiology

I have a bachelor’s degree in Exercise Physiology and am currently a medical student, which has given me a strong foundation in human physiology from both academic and clinical perspectives. I have experience tutoring undergraduate students in topics including human physiology. My approach focuses on breaking down complex concepts into clear, understandable steps, helping students not just memorize material, but truly grasp and apply it.
USMLE

USMLE

I am an MD/PhD student who has successfully completed Step 1. I specialize in high-yield, systems-based review that emphasizes testable content and NBME-style reasoning. My tutoring approach blends content mastery with strategy—focusing on recall techniques, question analysis, and spaced repetition. Whether you’re just starting or reviewing UWorld blocks, I’ll help you study smarter, not harder.
