About Amar


Bio

When I teach or tutor, I put things in real world terms that mean something to my students. I do this, because when new information is linked with something you already understand, applying that information is easier and more consistent.

Over my time as a student and tutor, I've compiled stacks of quick notes, quizzes, worksheets and study materials that I can share. I don't mind starting from scratch and making specific materials to fit my student’s needs.

When I teach or tutor, I put things in real world terms that mean something to my students. I do this, because when new information is linked with something you already understand, applying that information is easier and more consistent.

Over my time as a student and tutor, I've compiled stacks of quick notes, quizzes, worksheets and study materials that I can share. I don't mind starting from scratch and making specific materials to fit my student’s needs.

I understand that going over difficult material on your own can be daunting and frustrating. Whether your studying for the MCAT or a capstone class, my background and study materials can help take some of that burden off your shoulders in order for you to thrive. I'm always available and always willing to do everything I can to help you improve.

Patient and knowledgeable tutor!

I am working with Amar to come up with a review plan for my MCAT retake. He is very responsive to his student’s needs and takes the time to make sure that one understands the topic before moving on to another. He is always prepared for our sessions ahead of time, and I can tell he puts work in outside of our sessions. He even offered to look over my personal statement in his free time when I am finished with it. I know he will be a great asset for me as I continue on my journey to medical school! So glad to have taken the chance with Wyzant and to find Amar!

Great tutor!

Amar was very knowledgeable and helped me prepare for my NCCAOM Biomed exam. He was friendly and used effective visuals along with similes to help understand the content, encouraged questions, and really wanted me to grasp the way everything fit together to ensure that I can answer any questions, even ones not covered, on that particular topic on an exam. He also quickly pinpointed my study habit weaknesses, which significantly bumped up my practice exam questions. I couldn't have asked for a better tutor. -Mike W.

Knowledgeable and awesome tutor

Excellent tutor! I was struggling to understand concepts related to psychopharmacology and processes such as G-proteins and more and Amar helped me. I highly recommend him!

Very Help

I had Amar help me in my Anatomy and Physiology class and he was very helpful in giving me a visual concept and as well as giving relatable ways to think about the topic allowing me to understand the material better

great MCAT tutoring

Amar is funny and available. I had my first lesson with him the day after I reached out on Wyzant and he has been able to adopt to my changing work schedule. Amar finds fun ways to help remember and understand complicated topics like oxidative phosphorylation. He is knowledgeable about the MCAT and is a great recourse for content review and creating a study plan.

He provides you with extra study material and a personalized study plan. His tutoring has been very helpful for studying for the MCAT.

Pharmacology for nursing.

I am a 67-year-old retired auto mechanic studying to be an RN ( 2nd semester). I was having a hard time learning ALL the medications and drugs. Amar was able to identify my learning style which is very mechanical and taught me how to relate that to learning the drugs. Also, he did not sugar coat the fact I need to do the work and gave me homework. I highly recommend him. Who said, " You can not teach an old dog new tricks"? Thanks, Amar.

Fantastic, funny and a great listener!

We reviewed techniques for approaching the large task of studying for the MCAT, including what my strengths and weaknesses are. We also discussed how I studied previously and what changes might lead to a better score. He talked about how to mesh my life and study schedule without burning me out. I feel much more confident about the MCAT and prepping for it, with Amar on my side guiding me through it!

Knowledgeable and Available

Amar was available on the same day that I requested a tutoring session for biochemistry homework. He is knowledgeable and I appreciated the fact that he was available to help with homework that had a due date later on that day.

My daughter had an Anatomy tutoring session with Amar. He was really great with her helping her to understand complicated concepts in a more relatable and easier to comprehend manner. I would highly recommend Amar!
