"Hello! I am currently a fourth-year medical student at Rush Medical College, with a strong background in science and a passion for teaching. Prior to medical school, I completed my undergraduate studies with a focus in biology and public health, and I also served as a Teaching Fellow at the Yale School of Public Health, where I led weekly lab sections for graduate students in statistical methods and R programming. This experience allowed me to refine my ability to break down complex material into approachable steps, foster inclusive learning environments, and adapt my teaching to the needs of diverse learners.
Over the past several years, I have tutored students across a range of ages and subjects—from high school science and math to undergraduate pre-med coursework and graduate-level public health material. I also enjoy mentoring peers in medical education, helping them develop clinical reasoning, exam preparation strategies, and study approaches that emphasize both efficiency and deep understanding. My tutoring style is interactive and student-centered: I like to ask guiding questions, encourage active problem solving, and use real-world examples to reinforce key concepts.
I believe that every student learns differently, and my approach is to meet learners where they are and help them build confidence step by step. Whether a student is preparing for a standardized test, struggling with a difficult subject, or looking to get ahead, I aim to create a supportive environment that balances rigor with encouragement. My ultimate goal as a tutor is not just to help students succeed in the classroom, but also to help them develop lasting skills in critical thinking, organization, and self-directed learning." less...
