Hi! I’m Matthew, a fourth-year medical student entering Internal Medicine residency. I graduated magna cum laude from Syracuse University with a B.S. in Psychology and Neuroscience (minor in Architecture) and an honors capstone project, followed by a master’s in Medical Sciences from Boston University. I’ve spent the past several years immersed in studying and teaching medical and premedical sciences, completing USMLE Step 1 and Step 2 CK, and clinical clerkships across major specialties including Internal Medicine, Surgery, Neurology, Pediatrics, and more. These experiences deepened my understanding of how scientific foundations connect to real-world patient care—connections I love helping students discover.

I’ve worked with high school, college, and medical students one-on-one, teaching biology, chemistry, clinical reasoning, and exam preparation. I help students master the USMLE and NBME exams while improving study skills, time management, and emotional resilience. My teaching philosophy centers on curiosity and clarity: meeting students where they are, identifying obstacles, and breaking complex topics into simple, logical steps. Through clinical examples and analogies, I make difficult concepts memorable and easy to apply.

As a third-degree black belt in martial arts, I bring focus, discipline, and a positive mindset to every session.

Neuroscience

Neuroscience

I earned my B.S. in Psychology and Neuroscience from Syracuse University, graduating magna cum laude with an honors capstone project focused on neurobiological mechanisms of behavior related to performance on the Iowa Gambling Task. My strong foundation in neuroscience has guided my medical training and deepened my understanding of brain–body connections in health and disease. As a fourth-year medical student who has completed Neurology and Internal Medicine clerkships, I bring both scientific and clinical perspectives to my teaching. I enjoy helping students bridge complex neuroscience concepts with practical medical applications in a clear, structured way.
Personal Statements

Personal Statements

As a fourth-year medical student who successfully navigated the competitive residency application process, I bring firsthand experience in crafting compelling personal statements that stand out. I’ve written and edited numerous personal statements for medical school and residency—helping students and close friends express their authentic voice while aligning their stories with program values. I have always enjoyed reading and writing and my background in writing, psychology, and mentoring has honed my ability to draw out meaningful experiences and translate them into powerful narratives.
USMLE

USMLE

I’m a fourth-year medical student who has successfully completed both USMLE Step 1 and Step 2 CK, with a deep understanding of high-yield concepts across physiology, pathology, pharmacology, and clinical reasoning. My tutoring approach focuses on bridging core mechanisms with real clinical applications—helping students not only memorize but think like a physician. I’ve worked with students at every level of USMLE preparation, from building study schedules to mastering question-based learning and test-taking strategy.

Great tailored step 1 tutoring

Wonderful tutor for USMLE Step 1- Matthew K came very prepared to each lesson, and took the time to break down each concept, making sure to meet you where you're at. He helped me with biostatistics and made sure I understood each high yield topic, highlighting what to focus on. Would recommend this tutor for all STEP 1 subjects.

Cardiac pathology tutoring

Matthew was great at helping me walk through the material and understanding the concepts behind some of the pathologies related to cardiovascular system. He was very knowledgeable and worked through practice questions with me to make sure the material was nailed down and now I feel much more confident in doing more questions on it. Highly recommend him!

STEP 1 / STEP 2 studying

Matthew is such an amazing tutor! I came into our session feeling completely overwhelmed and stressed by the dense STEP 1 material, but he immediately made everything feel more manageable. He explains concepts with so much clarity and gives you strategies that actually work. He’s incredibly patient, reassuring, and genuinely invested in making sure you understand the material. This guy is the best!
