About Ashmi


Bio

Hello!

I have 10+ years of tutoring experience in the fields of science (biology and chemistry) and mathematics (geometry/trig, Alg I/II, pre-calc). I worked with the NJ Department of Education for curriculum reform for 4 years before teaching chemistry, biology, and mathematics at a private school in NJ. In this capacity, I also taught SAT Prep to high school students. I had scored in the 99th percentile on the SAT (2350) and all of my 50+ students have scored 2150+.

MCAT:
I scored in the 99th percentile on the MCAT with perfect scores in CARS and Psych/Social. I worked with Kaplan and Altius to help them develop their curricula and also as an instructor before moving into private MCAT tutoring at the most reputable private MCAT tutoring company in Manhattan. My students have all increased their scores substantially, many achieving 515+ and some even reaching 520+.

I'm passionate about mentoring and teaching and would love to help you improve your approach to studying and help you prepare for your exams or just learn a new skill!

Career Development

Career Development

I am currently a medical student but have dabbled in many fields. I worked as a college counselor and a career counselor at a firm in the greater NYC area for several years, helping adults figure out their career goals and assist with more short term goals such as negotiating salaries, applying to grad schools, applying for new jobs, etc.
College Counseling

College Counseling

Ever since my own college application process, I have been in the practice of helping other students with college counseling. I joined a firm that specialized in college counseling and tutored 1-1 and 1-5 settings to help students get into college and excel in college. I worked with this firm for 5 years and still do some 1-1 counseling!
Epidemiology

Epidemiology

I'm currently a 3rd year medical student who has been tutoring at the undergrad and grad level of Stats and Epidemiology for 7 years. I did Statistical Analysis research in undergrad that focused on epidemiological patterns. I've worked with Johns Hopkins and Cornell University to analyze their research. My epidemiological research has also been published in various journals. Please reach out to me for more information on what I've done and how I can help!
Genetics

Genetics

I am currently in medical student where we study genetics extensively and have tutored genetics at the medical school, undergraduate, and high school levels before. My undergraduate research was also based in the Genetics Lab. Please contact me for more information!
MCAT

MCAT

I am a current medical student who scored in the 99th percentile on the MCAT. I've tutored for the MCAT for 3 years and all my students (approximately 15 students) have increased their score by at least 1SD.
Pharmacology

Pharmacology

As a former pharmacy technician and current medical student, I've had extensive experience in the field of pharmacology. I received my pharmacy technician license in 2014 and have been qualified since.
Study Skills

Study Skills

I have been tutoring for many years now despite my young age. At my last tutoring job, I helped students reorganize their school-work, which allowed for better grades and a simpler lifestyle. I often help students begin by organizing and then help them focus on whatever subjects they need help in, allowing themselves to recognize what their problem areas are.
USMLE

USMLE

I took the USMLE just a few years ago (scored in the 95th percentile) and since then have been private tutoring for USMLE Step1. Most of my students boast at least a +1SD score boost from very simple tricks to help with test taking!

Fabulous tutor!

I would highly recommend Ashmi, she is responsible, patient and connects well with her students. My daughter actually looked forward to the tutoring sessions and had all her work done without any procrastinating. Ashmi was well prepared for each session and planned and adjusted her teaching according to my daughters needs. Not only is she intelligent but a great person as well! One of the best decisions we made!

Help with MCAT CARS section

Ashmi helped me walk through a CARS passage while explaining her logic. She also helped me understand the patterns in my own thinking and gave me tips for cutting down my timing and answering questions more efficiently. Her advice helped me to alter my approach, and I was able to improve my CARS score and increase my confidence after working with her. Her advice also helped me to cut down on my time taken per passage. I would highly recommend her if you need advice on improving your CARS strategy and score on the MCAT.

BEST TUTOR EVER!

Ashmi is the most wonderful, patient, kind, and effective tutor! She helped me pass my Biology CLEP in 3 weeks and is extremely knowledgeable not only on the subject material but also what is need to know for the exam. I will use Ashmi for any of my school needs in the future and couldn’t recommend more
