I am a physician (M.D.) with an extensive background in the biological and medical sciences, and I enjoy helping students master challenging material in a clear, structured way. My training in medicine required a deep understanding of anatomy, physiology, and the core concepts tested on the USMLE exams. In addition to my clinical education, I have significant research experience in biomedical science, which has strengthened my ability to explain complex topics with precision and real-world relevance.

I have been teaching and tutoring for many years in a variety of settings. I began tutoring students one-on-one in high school and college, working with classmates and other students for pay in subjects such as biology and related sciences. I have also taught groups as a certified instructor in professional training environments, which helped me develop an organized and approachable teaching style. During medical school and in research roles, I mentored and supervised multiple junior students in the laboratory, guiding them through scientific concepts, study strategies, and problem-solving skills.

My tutoring approach is highly personalized and focused on building true understanding rather than memorization. For USMLE preparation, I help students break down difficult topics, connect physiology to clinical reasoning, and improve test-taking strategy using high-yield explanations. Whether you are preparing for an important exam or strengthening your foundation in biology, anatomy, or physiology, I aim to make the material feel manageable, logical, and even enjoyable. I offer tutoring sessions both in person and online, and I look forward to helping you reach your academic goals.

Approved Subjects

EMT/ NREMT

EMT/ NREMT

I have over 10 years of experience working as an Emergency Medical Technician (EMT) with extensive real-world prehospital emergency care exposure. I have been state-certified as an EMT in two different countries, successfully completing both certification processes and required examinations, including the NREMT. My tutoring focuses on helping students master EMT coursework, practical skills, and the clinical reasoning needed to succeed on the NREMT exam. I tailor each session to the student’s level, emphasizing clear explanations, scenario-based learning, and confidence in both testing and field performance.
Genetics

Genetics

I have extensive hands-on experience in genetics and molecular biology through medical and translational research training. During medical school at the Technion, I spent three years in Professor Andy Levy’s lab developing AAV-based gene therapy approaches for IQSEC2-related genetic disorders, which formed the basis of my award-winning MD thesis. This work involved studying genetic mechanisms, molecular pathways, and therapeutic strategies for inherited disease. I enjoy helping students master core genetics concepts, from Mendelian inheritance to modern applications in gene therapy and precision medicine.
Neuroscience

Neuroscience

I have extensive experience in neuroscience through medical training and translational research in neurogenetics. During medical school at the Technion, I spent three years in Professor Andy Levy’s lab studying neurodevelopmental disorders and developing AAV-based gene therapy approaches for IQSEC2-related disease. This work involved understanding neural development, brain function, and the genetic mechanisms underlying neurologic conditions. I enjoy helping students build a strong foundation in neuroscience, from neuroanatomy and synaptic physiology to modern research applications in neurologic disease.
USMLE

USMLE

As a physician (M.D.), I have extensive training in the foundational sciences and clinical reasoning skills tested across the USMLE exams. I successfully passed USMLE Step 1, Step 2 CK, and Step 3 on my first attempt, demonstrating a strong command of high-yield medical knowledge and board-style problem solving. My tutoring focuses on helping students integrate concepts efficiently, improve question-based reasoning, and develop effective test-taking strategies. I tailor each session to the student’s goals, whether preparing for Step 1, Step 2 CK, or Step 3 and building confidence for exam day.
