Hi! I am originally from Phoenix, Arizona. I’m a current M.D. Candidate at Columbia University and a graduate of Princeton University. I’m a conscientious, hard-working, and service-oriented individual. I have supported students of all ages and have over a decade of tutoring experience. In the future, I hope to become a doctor and/or potentially work in the field of biomedical research. One reason why I enjoy tutoring is because it exposes me to the service side of the medical field. Tutoring provides me with the same pleasure of helping others grow that I hope to experience as a doctor. I have tutored a wide variety of topics, but the ones I am most comfortable in are test prep (SAT/ACT, SSAT, PSAT, MCAT), writing, math, biology, chemistry, physics, Chinese, and Latin. I am adaptable and patient, willing to work with people who are at any stage in the learning process, whether laying down the foundations for a new subject or learning how to apply learned information to new problems.
