MD with English background, specializing in personal statements

Nicholas V.

Hello everyone, I am Nick. I originally obtained my B.A. in English from the College of New Jersey and then went on to complete a post baccalaureate and medical school. I recently graduated with an M.D. from the University of Queensland and I am currently a resident physician. I have a strong passion for both Science and English. I believe being fairly balanced in both has allowed me to relate and cater to, a wider range of students.

I have mainly tutored high school, collegiate, and graduate students in subjects including: biology, physiology, writing, proofreading, and psychology. In obtaining my BA in English and my MD, I have professional, firsthand and academic experience in writing, editing, and proofreading personal statements, essays, and resumes, of all kinds. This includes statements for college, graduate schools, medical schools and other highly competitive graduate programs such as engineering. I work with students in writing eloquent and effective statements to help increase their chances of getting into the school and program they desire. Your personal statement is one of the few things in your application you can customize and have direct control over, so take advantage of this.

I take a student centered approach to my teaching; always open to changing our lessons or study material. I am very accessible and always available for questions from both students as well as parents. Feel free to contact me with any additional questions you may have!
