Columbia Graduate, Current Medical Student, Experienced Tutor

Jonathan K.

I graduated from Columbia University, where I studied biomedical engineering and music. I am now a medical student at the Zucker School of Medicine at Hofstra/Northwell. In high school, I attended an IB school and am familiar with the IB curriculum. I love learning about science and math, and I work to share that joy with my students.

I have 5 years of tutoring experience, teaching students ranging from fourth grade to high school seniors. I have tutored for the SAT, ACT, NYS Regents Exams, and AP/IB Math, Biology, and Chemistry. I work hard to personalize my approach for each student so that they can gain confidence and achieve their academic goals.

I scored an 800 the math section of the SAT as well as an 800 on the Math 2 SAT subject test. In high school, I scored a 7 on the IB Math exam and a 5 on the AP Statistics exam. I love reasoning through math questions with my students and the satisfaction that comes from completing a particularly challenging problem.

As a biomedical engineering major and pre-med at Columbia, I excelled in my science coursework and scored in the 95th percentile on the MCAT. I have years of experience tutoring NYS Regents/AP/IB Biology and Chemistry. I find science to be incredibly fascinating and I hope to share that passion with my students.
