I’m a current Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery resident and a 90th-percentile USMLE Step 2 scorer with over two years of experience tutoring medical students at all levels of preparation.
I’ve worked with students across the spectrum, from those retaking Step 2 and struggling with confidence, to high-performing students aiming to push their scores into a more competitive range. Regardless of starting point, my goal is the same: to help you approach Step 2 strategically, efficiently, and with confidence.
My Approach:
Step 2 is not about memorizing more facts — it’s about learning how to think like the exam wants you to think. As a resident actively applying this knowledge in real clinical settings, I focus heavily on:
- Developing strong clinical reasoning and test-taking strategy
- Breaking down UWorld and NBME questions step-by-step
- Identifying common traps and patterns the exam uses
- Teaching you how to prioritize information and make decisions under time pressure
Rather than giving generic advice, I work with each student to create a personalized study plan based on their baseline performance, timeline, and goals. We regularly reassess and adjust as you improve.
Who I Work Best With
I commonly tutor:
- MS3s and MS4s preparing during clinical rotations
- Students planning dedicated Step 2 study
- Retakers who need a new, structured approach
- Strong students aiming for a competitive score for residency
What You Can Expect
- Clear, structured explanations
- A supportive, judgment-free learning environment
- Honest feedback and actionable strategies
- Efficient sessions focused on high-yield improvement
My goal is not just to help you answer questions correctly, but to help you understand why, so you can walk into test day confident in your process.
If you’re looking for a tutor who combines strong Step 2 performance and a personalized approach, I’d be happy to work with you.
