Experienced USMLE Step 1 & 2 Tutor

George K.

Hi there! I’m Dr. K — a friendly, experienced tutor who’s passionate about helping students master complex topics and succeed on their exams.

I hold a PhD in Physiology & Biophysics from the University of Louisville School of Medicine and an MPH in Chronic Disease & Education from Columbia University. I’ve taught everything from Anatomy & Physiology to Public Health Biology and Cardiorespiratory Physiology — both in college classrooms and one-on-one tutoring sessions. I also completed postdoctoral research fellowship at Stanford University School of Medicine, where I taught future medical students and researchers.

Over the years, I’ve helped students prepare for:

USMLE Step 1 & Step 2 CK
Shelf exams (Internal Medicine, Surgery, Pediatrics, Family Medicine, OB/GYN, and Psychiatry)
Pre-med coursework like Human Physiology, Anatomy, and Molecular Biology
Public health topics and research methods

I take a personalized approach to every session. That means figuring out your weak spots, helping you understand why certain concepts matter, and teaching you how to break down tough questions like a pro. I believe that learning through real clinical problems and structured review is the best way to build long-term knowledge — not just memorization.

Whether you’re aiming for a top Step 2 score, need to catch up in a pre-med course, or just want to feel more confident tackling NBME-style questions, I’m here to help.

Let’s make complex science make sense — and even (dare I say) enjoyable. Message me to set up a session!

Please Note: We will hit the ground running!!
