About Alex

Bio

Hi, I’m Alex! I’m a 4th-year medical student at the Sackler School of Medicine and a future pediatrics resident with plans to subspecialize in pediatric cardiology. I recently scored a 266 (90+ percentile) on the USMLE Step 2, and I’m passionate about helping other students reach their highest potential on Step 1 and Step 2.

Over the past several years, I’ve developed a deep understanding of how to master high-yield concepts, integrate clinical reasoning, and approach NBME-style questions...

Hi, I’m Alex! I’m a 4th-year medical student at the Sackler School of Medicine and a future pediatrics resident with plans to subspecialize in pediatric cardiology. I recently scored a 266 (90+ percentile) on the USMLE Step 2, and I’m passionate about helping other students reach their highest potential on Step 1 and Step 2.

Over the past several years, I’ve developed a deep understanding of how to master high-yield concepts, integrate clinical reasoning, and approach NBME-style questions with consistency and confidence. My tutoring focuses on:
-Building strong foundational understanding (not just memorization)
-High-yield frameworks for microbiology, pharmacology, biochemistry, pathology, and physiology
-NBME-style question dissection, error-pattern recognition, and test-taking strategy
-Study planning, personalized schedules, and resource selection
-Accountability + progressive performance improvement

I understand the stress of medical school and the challenges of preparing for the USMLE while balancing rotations, research, and life. I’ve spent years refining efficient, evidence-based study strategies—and I’ll help you develop a learning approach that works for YOU.

Before medical school, I tutored many middle school and high school students in math and science. Today, I bring that same patience, clarity, and enthusiasm to students preparing for Step 1 or Step 2.

Whether you’re building foundational knowledge, trying to break through a plateau, or aiming for a top percentile score, I’d love to help you get there.

I’m easy to reach and respond quickly. Feel free to contact me with any questions or to schedule a session!

Outstanding!

Patient and engaging. I thank you for helping my daughter. During the pandemic things have been greatly difficult. The tutoring sessions have decreased anxiety and increased her knowledge base. I am grateful as a parent for this service.
