Naz has a real passion for teaching, and her mastery of physics is quite impressive. I came to her as a non-traditional pre-med student, desperately in need of an A in this class. I meet with her once or twice a week, and she teaches me MCAT tips in addition to the material covered in my class. I just got my first test back, and I got a 97 (30 points above the class average). I can't recommend her enough!

Lauren H.

Gabe really taught me how to approach the CARS section from a different angle. He also helped me take his ideas and personalize them so that I could develop the strategy that worked best for me!
