...convey that information in a way that makes sense to them. My tutoring philosophy revolves around the Socratic method: namely, I try to help the student discover the subject for themselves versus me simply giving them the answers. I believe that (guided) personal discovery leads not only to greater understanding, but greater knowledge retention as well. Additionally, as someone who played Division III basketball in college, I have also been doing private basketball lessons where...

...then, I have taught with Kaplan Test Prep as an MCAT Instructor for In-Person, Kaplan Partner Solutions Institutional Partnerships, and Live Online delivery modes. At Kaplan, my teaching style has matured incorporating elements of growth mindset and learning science with spaced repetition of relevant concepts all while meeting students where they are on their journeys in education. Now, as an Honors Chemistry teacher at Coppell High School, I am able to design learning to meet...

...My name is Anita and I am a biomedical engineering student at Texas A&M University as well as an incoming medical student. My senior year of high school, I got into MIT and have always loved math and science, so my favorite subjects to tutor include physics, chemistry, algebra, and other STEM subjects.

...such as First Aid and Emergency Preparedness. These experiences inspired me to continue this passion, striving to make learning a fun, insightful, and a lifelong process while helping students learn in the easiest and most effective way possible.

...begin medical school at UT Southwestern next fall. I would love to help others who are pursuing a similar path and need SAT or MCAT tutoring.

...I can teach however, is a rigorous system of meta analysis and self reflection that will help you achieve your short and long term MCAT goals. The MCAT is widely considered the hardest graduate level exam in existence. The scope of the exam is extraordinary and easily encompasses 4 years of college biochemistry degree courses.

...I receive the class notes and requirements from the student, I prepare an outline and a powerpoint for our session. During our session, I will go through the material and explain, in detail, each and every slide (including mnemonics, tricks, etc.). Every few slides, we will pause for a pop quiz. Finally, once the lesson is over, I will provide you with a quiz/mini-test to assure the both of us that you walk away feeling...

...medical brigades. I recently returned from a trip to Honduras where my brigade was able to provide healthcare to a rural community in central Honduras. Before applying to college, I went through extensive ACT tutoring and would love to relay those skills to other students. I'm passionate about the social sciences, math, spanish, and all things natural science :) I intend to go to medical school and would eventually love to become a pediatric neurosurgeon...

...Neurology and Psychiatry. Our work together can include evidence-based study techniques, test taking techniques, habit formation, scheduling and study strategy, and a broadly biopsychosocial approach to a student's success. We can use the exam as the keystone and build with the fundamentals of learning, test taking, and wellbeing. I look forward to teaching subject matter and helping you approach your goals with a sense of confidence that only deeply dedicated preparation can provide. Thank you!
