My approach focuses on helping you develop a broader theme for your application, positioning you in the most effective way to stand out. I understand that every student is unique, and I tailor my tutoring to address individual goals and strengths, ensuring that together, we unlock your full potential and set you up for success in the medical school admissions process.

Helped me edit my med school application before submitting

Tanvir was incredibly knowledgeable of the whole application process and did a fantastic job editing my writing in a way to highlight my experiences and make me sound great in the eyes of the admissions committee!! Would highly recommend reaching out to him. We had a quick phone call prior where he clarified everything. I reached out at 9am and by 4pm he had edited my PS and activities section!!!! Great guy loved working with him , highly recommend!!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Truly Exceptional – A Rare Find

I reached out to Tanvi at the last minute for help reviewing my son’s medical school application, and the experience was nothing short of extraordinary. Tanvi is not just a tutor; he’s a true partner. Highly knowledgeable, sharply insightful, and deeply committed, he brings a rare blend of expertise, dedication, and integrity. While others said my son’s personal statement was “good to go,” Tanvi was the only one who identified deeper issues and guided him through thoughtful, transformative revisions. His feedback was precise, strategic, and impactful. What sets Tanvi apart is his unwavering support. Always on time, responsive, and fully present, he stood by my son throughout the process, offering encouragement, clarity, and honest guidance. If you’re looking for someone who truly cares and delivers top-tier support from start to finish, Tanvi is that person. We are beyond grateful!

Highly Knowledgeable and Supportive Tutor

Working with Tanvir has been an incredibly positive experience. From the very beginning, he was not only knowledgeable and insightful but also extremely accommodating with my busy schedule. He was flexible and understanding, which made creating my application packet much less stressful and more manageable. He provided tremendous advising with my resume and cover letter, offering thoughtful guidance that helped me clearly express my experiences and goals. What really stood out was how he helped me organize my thoughts—he guided me in developing a strong, authentic narrative that reflected who I am and what I hope to achieve. His expertise in the medical field was also a huge asset. He understands the nuances of entering the healthcare field, and his advice was always spot-on and relevant. He was attentive and truly listened to what I wanted to convey in my application packet, making sure that everything aligned with my personal goals and professional aspirations. If you’re looking for someone to support you through any part of the application process—especially if you’re pursuing a path in medicine—I can’t recommend him enough. He brings not only knowledge and experience, but also patience, empathy, and a genuine commitment to helping you succeed.

Great Tutor for USMLE Step 3! Very Encouraging & Warm. Teaches Great Strategies.

Gives great study advice at the beginning. Had 1 tutoring session so far. We reviewed some CCS cases together. During sessions, Tanvir is very time-conscience, delivering the most impactful guidance in the time allowed. He corrected my methods and provided great strategies for doing CCS. He was exceptionally warm, encouraging, and nonjudgmental. Great tutor !
