"Hello! I'm Zachary, a dedicated tutor with expertise in science and standardized test preparation.

I graduated summa cum laude from Duke University in 2022 with a Bachelor of Science in Psychology and a minor in Chemistry. I am currently a first-year medical student at The Ohio State University College of Medicine, where I continue to deepen my understanding of biology, chemistry, and physiology. My academic background, combined with my 99th percentile scores on both the ACT and MCAT, has equipped me with the skills to help students master challenging content and develop effective test-taking strategies.

My tutoring experience is both broad and personalized. As a Psychology TA, I designed lesson plans and worked to enhance the Psychology 101 curriculum, ensuring material was presented in a way that maximized student engagement and comprehension. Beyond my work as a TA, I have tutored students in chemistry, biology, MCAT preparation, and medical school applications. I have worked with students from diverse backgrounds and academic levels, tailoring my teaching methods to fit individual learning styles and goals.

My tutoring approach focuses on breaking down complex concepts into manageable parts, reinforcing learning through active recall and problem-solving, and developing test-taking strategies that boost confidence and performance. I emphasize adaptability and personalized instruction, ensuring that each session is tailored to the student’s needs—whether they require help with coursework, standardized test prep, or navigating the medical school application process.

I also offer flexibility in scheduling and location, with availability for both in-person and online sessions. My goal is to create a structured, engaging, and results-driven learning environment that helps students succeed. I look forward to working with you and helping you reach your academic goals!" less...
