I am a former classroom teacher and current medical student with extensive experience teaching and tutoring science and exam-based subjects. I hold dual master's degrees in Science education and Special education, which trained me to differentiate instruction, support diverse learning needs, and adapt instruction for individualized success. Before medical school, I taught middle school and high school students, where I designed lesson plans, delivered instruction, assessed student understanding, and provided individualized academic support. Through this work, I consistently helped improve student Regents exam scores by up to 50% in one year.
My graduate training in education and certified teaching background inform my tutoring approach and allow me to explain complicated material in a clear, organized, and student-centered way using evidence-based instructional strategies and pedagogy.
I also hold a bachelor's degree and completed all prerequisite coursework for medical school, including biology, chemistry, biochemistry, and physics graduating cum-laude. My medical training gives me a strong command of MCAT content, pre-medical coursework and medical school subjects commonly tested on STEP 1.
In addition to classroom teaching, I have extensive 1-on-1 tutoring experience with students ranging from high school through college and early medical school. I have supported students preparing for science exams, cumulative finals, Regents exams, and standardized tests by identifying learning gaps, reinforcing core concepts, and teaching effective study and test-taking strategies. My tutoring emphasizes active learning, problem solving, and long term retention rather than memorization alone.
As a medical student, I understand the challenges of managing demanding academic schedules and tailor tutoring plans to be efficient, focused, and high yield to optimize results. I adapt my teaching style to each student's age, learning style, and goals. I am tutor in both virtual and one-on-one settings.
