Detail-oriented tutor
Melissa gave me strategic advice on how to approach the passages by thinking thoroughly. By implementing her advice in my test-taking strategies I have been doing better on my practice questions and feeling more confident.

Great tutor
For my MCAT content review phase, she has been detailed on how to approach the chapters and chapter questions. I like that she also makes weekly schedule and also includes “catch up” day incase I’m behind schedule.

MCAT Prep
Have been working with Melissa for a few weeks and she has helped me improve my content knowledge and test taking skills. We do practice passages while I speak my thoughts out loud and she takes notes. I like this method as it gives her insight on the thought process I have as I am working through problems then she gives me back feedback on my strategy, thought process, and future practice. She also helps me tailor my schedule accordingly, based on what I mention and what I struggle with during practice. She’s very pleasant and comfortable to work with.

Very Knowledgeable and explained very well
Melissa provided me with a great custom tailored study plan that would best suit my personal schedule and goals. We also went through a couple of passages and discussed them. Melissa explained the concepts very clearly and in a way that was easy to understand
