"Hi, y’all! My name is Archita, and I graduated magna cum laude in Cell and Developmental Biology at the University of Rochester. I am also part of a combined eight-year BS/MD program. As an incoming medical student, I bring a deep love for learning and a firsthand understanding of students' academic challenges. I’ve been passionate about helping students succeed for over eight years.

I’ve helped students prepare for the ACT, SAT, and AP exams by providing tailored study sessions that focus on practice questions, test-taking strategies, and strengthening areas of weakness. With a 36 on the ACT and a 5 on multiple AP exams, including AB and BC Calculus, Statistics, Biology, Chemistry, and English Language and Literature, I know what it takes to excel on these tests. My goal is to help students feel confident and well-prepared with the tools they need to succeed on exam day.

I was a Teaching Assistant for the past 2.5 years in introductory biology courses, biochemistry, and human physiology. I’ve held weekly workshops and exam review hours for students to strengthen concepts and graded their exams. I’ve gained experience in breaking down complex ideas in ways that are easy to understand, always focusing on advocating for students.

I’ve also tutored students one-on-one at the University of Rochester Learning Center in subjects like pre-calculus, calculus, and various biology courses. I make it a priority to tailor each session to a student’s needs, whether that’s helping them understand tricky concepts, tackle homework problems, or prepare for exams. My approach is to break down tough topics into manageable pieces, building understanding and boosting confidence. This allows students to not only succeed in their immediate assignments but also gain the skills to tackle future challenges on their own.

Whether you’re struggling with biology, math, or exam prep, I’m here to help you understand the material and build the skills you need to excel. Let’s work together to achieve your academic goals!" less...
