I am a recent high school grad (and valedictorian) who is currently attending an 8-year BS/MD program. Having been admitted to a medical school at the age of 18, I know what it takes to be a successful student in high school and I know I can share these skills with any student I help.

I emphasize practice as the best way to learn as opposed to just lecturing about content. But I am flexible to my teaching style if a parent or student wants me to teach a certain way that's best.
