I graduated from the University of Michigan with a degree in Molecular, Cellular, and Developmental Biology, earning a 3.95 GPA and honors every semester. My academic training emphasized a strong foundation in biology, biochemistry, and physiology, as well as analytical reasoning and problem solving. I scored a 517 on the MCAT, with a 100th percentile score in the Biological and Biochemical Foundations section, and earned a 36 on the ACT. This background allows me to tutor MCAT Biology and Biochemistry, ACT Science, and high school or college level biology with a deep understanding of both content and test strategy.
I have experience tutoring students one on one in biology, biochemistry, and standardized test preparation, working primarily with high school juniors and seniors as well as undergraduate premed students. My teaching approach focuses on identifying knowledge gaps, building conceptual understanding, and then reinforcing that understanding through practice problems and exam style questions. For standardized tests, I emphasize pattern recognition, passage analysis, and time management strategies, helping students move beyond memorization to confident application of concepts.
In my tutoring, I aim to meet students where they are and adapt my methods to their learning style and goals. I have taught in individualized settings, including private tutoring and peer based academic support, often working with students over multiple weeks or months to track progress and refine strategies. Whether supporting a student preparing for the MCAT or helping build a strong foundation in biology or biochemistry coursework, my goal is to help students gain clarity, confidence, and measurable improvement in their performance.
