My name is Mark, and I'm a 4th year medical student at West Virginia University. I've always been passionate about teaching and want to help you succeed! Here's what I offer:

- As a 4th year medical student who recently took USMLE Step 2 and scored well on it (259, or about the 75th percentile), I can help you hone your studying or simply be a study partner to keep you accountable.

- I went to Northwestern University for my undergraduate Spanish degree and was a Spanish tutor there, so I have lots of experience tutoring Spanish.

- As a student nearing the end of med school, I have experience with many different medical science subjects, with a particular interest in tutoring pharmacology and physiology.

- I'm applying to psychiatry residencies right now, and I have a lot of experience in psychiatry and psychology, so I can tutor for a psychology course.

- Finally, I have lots of (very recent) experience writing essays and personal statements, as well as preparing for residency interviews. Whatever you are applying to, I can help you write an essay/personal statement or help you practice interviewing!

I also have over a year of experience in the hospital as a student, working with a wide variety of different drugs that patients require. I have also had to study pharmacology in depth for many standardized tests, including USMLE Step 1 and Step 2.

As a 4th year med student, I have taken many physiology courses and have had success in all of them. Physiology is one of my favorite topics, since the human body is consistently fascinating and incredible.

I scored 259 on the exam, which corresponds to about the 75th percentile.

Patient, Supportive, and Motivating

I give my tutor a 5/5! He has been incredibly patient and supportive throughout our sessions, always taking the time to explain concepts in a way that makes sense to me. His teaching has given me more confidence in my studies and has helped me stay on track with my goals. I really appreciate how encouraging and motivating he is — he makes learning feel less stressful and much more achievable. Thanks to his guidance, I’ve been able to build better study habits and feel more prepared for my exams. I couldn’t ask for a better tutor!
