"Hello, I'm Ishaan!

I graduated with distinction from Duke University, holding a degree in Philosophy and complementing that with minors in Chemistry and Science & Society Studies.

My tutoring approach is deeply rooted in promoting a thorough understanding of the subject matter. While memorization techniques are essential, I prioritize methodologies like scaffolding and other proven learning strategies to ensure comprehensive mastery. While I prepare structured lesson plans, I'm also flexible in tailoring my approach to cater to each student's unique requirements, be it content coverage or practice question reviews.

During my tenure at Duke, I gained experience tutoring in subjects such as Biochemistry and Physics. I'm proud to share that students I tutored, who initially averaged grades of B or B+, concluded their courses with remarkable A or A- grades. Post-graduation, I've honed my skills further as an MCAT tutor, accumulating over 370+ hours of tutoring experience. My students have seen a median increase of 11+ points, with my most improved student improving 18 points! This journey has given me the privilege to guide a diverse group of learners, from current college students to non-traditional students who've been away from formal education for over a decade.

Opting to work with me is not just about having a tutor; it's about gaining a dedicated accountability partner. I'm committed to helping structure your studies seamlessly around your work, school, and broader life commitments.

My ultimate goal is to witness the success of each of my students. I see myself not merely as an instructor but as a catalyst, keen on unleashing the potential within every learner. I pride myself on being highly responsive, and I'm always available for any queries you might have. Please don't hesitate to reach out for a complimentary 30-minute consultation." less...
