3rd year medical student for premed tutoring and medical school apps!

Richa H.

Hello! I’m a 3rd-year medical student with a passion for helping students achieve academic confidence and long-term success. My tutoring style is rooted in meeting students exactly where they are, identifying strengths, and building study strategies that are both efficient and effective.

I bring a wide range of teaching experience to my sessions. I currently serve as a peer tutor for 1st- and 2nd-year medical students, where I design individualized tutoring plans for both one-on-one and group sessions and focus on high-yield content for NBME and USMLE exams. Before medical school, I worked as a substitute teacher for elementary, middle, and high school students, particularly in math and science. These roles taught me how to adapt my teaching style to different ages, learning needs, and educational backgrounds.

I also have firsthand experience navigating the premedical journey. I took the MCAT twice—improving my score from a 507 to a 517—using targeted, disciplined study methods, and I now enjoy helping others do the same. I am familiar with TMDSAS, AMCAS, and the full medical school application process, including primary applications, secondaries, and interviews. I use this experience to guide students not only in content mastery, but also in strategy, mindset, and organization.

Subjects I specialize in:

MCAT preparation
Premedical coursework (Biology, Biochemistry, General Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, Physics)
Study skills, test-taking strategies, and academic coaching
Medical school application advising (TMDSAS/AMCAS)
USMLE/NBME prep for early medical students
Math and science tutoring for middle/high school students
