Hi! I’m Jake, a medical student at the University of Vermont. I graduated summa cum laude from Northeastern University with a degree in Behavioral Neuroscience, where I developed a love for the sciences — especially biology, chemistry, biochemistry, and organic chemistry. In college, I enjoyed helping classmates break down tough concepts, which showed me how much I value teaching and mentorship.
Over the last three years, I’ve formally tutored medical students preparing for board exams, guided college students through pre-med classes, and mentored high school students during summers. Working with such a wide range of learners has helped me create a flexible, student-centered approach.
Having navigated rigorous courses and exams like the MCAT, I know how overwhelming learning can feel. My style is patient, adaptable, and focused on making material approachable. I use a mix of strategies — from analogies to active recall — and I welcome student materials while also sharing resources I’ve found effective. My goal is to help students not only succeed on tests but also build lasting confidence in science.
As a current medical student, I balance clinical work with teaching and make it a priority to be responsive and reliable. I look forward to helping you reach your goals and maybe even enjoy the process along the way!
