Experience
I'm currently a MD-PhD student at Cornell Medical School. 4 years private tutoring experience (SAT, AP Calculus, Math) 1 year overseas as an English teacher (tutoring kids of all ages from elementary school to high school) SAT: 2370 (Math: 800, Critical Reading: 800, Writing: 770) SAT2 Math: 800 AP Physics C (Mech and E/M), Biology, Chemistry, Environmental Science: 5 AP Calc AB, Calc BC, Comp sci, Statistics: 5 AP English Language and Composition, English Literature and Composition: 5 AP Psychology, US History: 5 I love explaining concepts to people and understand that each student has a particular teaching method that is optimal for learning for them. In tutoring I get a feel for how each student approaches problems (whether it be in math or science or even essay writing) and decide where to proceed from there. For SAT tutoring I feel like there is a much more efficient way of studying for the SAT than going to a prep class and just sitting there in their classes. There is a certain flow/ predictability of SAT questions and answers and I can help you understand. I also do college and medical school essay and application tutoring. I've learned from my mistakes during the application cycle and begun to understand what the colleges are looking for. I can help your application go from a typical cookie cutter app to one which seems unique and stands out to adcoms.
