Hello! My name is Ruhi and I am a recent graduate of Harvard College, where I graduated with an A.B. in Government and secondary in Global Health & Health Policy. I am currently a medical student at Harvard Medical School.
I am passionate about teaching and have hundreds of hours of tutoring experience, including standardized test prep, homework help, college essays, and English as a second language. I have also served as part of the course staff for general and organic chemistry at the collegiate level. As a tutor, I prioritize accommodating students’ learning styles through patience and flexibility. I especially enjoy helping students shape their narratives through college essays and applications as well as preparing students for standardized tests.
Outside of medicine, you’ll find me exploring the Boston food scene with friends, playing the ukulele, and doing digital art!
