MCAT Tutors

Welcome to my profile! As the founder of The Black Roots, I specialize in helping students excel in their academic pursuits by making content relevant to their lives. Over the past decade, I've tutored over 100 students through The Princeton Review and my own practice, guiding them to achieve their target scores. I draw upon these experiences as I guide students and help them develop their own study and test-taking strategies. Let's work together to craft a personalized plan that will help you reach your MCAT goals and beyond. Feel free to reach out to discuss how I can support your journey!

Despite my youth, I've amassed nearly 5 years of professional MCAT Instruction and Coaching. As the former Director of MCAT Instruction at Jack Westin, and a current medical student at the University of Toronto, I've supported hundreds of pre-med students with their MCAT preparation. I place a large emphasis on test taking strategy and individualized study plans so that each student can see the most progress in the shortest amount of time. I've helped multiple students achieve 20+ point increases, which ultimately puts the student in a stronger position when it comes to applying to medical school.

Over the last five years, I've developed a toolkit to fundamentally change the way many students approach the MCAT. A reasoning test first and foremost, I've built on my foundational teaching skills to help students not only meet their goals, but often exceed them. Going through the premed process can be arduous and anxiety-provoking, and preparing for a high-stakes examination like the MCAT is no exception. I've honed in on skills fostered through years of working as a mentor and teacher with the CURB Peer Mentorship Program, teaching in local K-12 high schools in Ithaca through 21st Century & REACH and conducting in-person and online MCAT tutoring with both Yale and Cornell undergrads. Now, having adapted a course full of materials, strategies, and resources to guide my students, I'm excited to use Leland's platform to share my insights and strategies to the next generation of future physicians. I scored in the 99th percentile in the MCAT, but what sets me apart is my motivation to adapt and invest in the needs of every one of my students. From personalized Anki decks for each AAMC content outline, to unique, integrative protocols to optimize students’ approaches to each MCAT section, I strive to go above and beyond as a resource for my students. The students I’ve worked with over the years, regardless of their starting point and timeline, have gone on to score in the 90th percentile and above on average. Be it acing your first attempt, trying to show improvement on a subsequent attempt, or even after your MCAT to garner application process advice, know that I’m prepared for, and committed to, helping you reach your goals.

I was able to independently study and apply directly to medical school without gap years. Happy to share advice about schedule creation, content, and practice question review. Let's connect and create a personalized plan to achieve your medical school dreams!

I also worked in research and healthcare consulting, and am the Co-Founder and CEO of an orthopedic device startup.

On the March 12th, 2022 MCAT, I scored 524/528, a 100th percentile score. I got 132/132 on Critical Analysis and Reasoning (CARS), 132/132 on Biology and Biochemistry (BB), 130/132 on CP (Chemistry and Physics), and 130/132 on Psychology and Sociology (PS). I studied for 6 months using Kaplan books, UWorld, third party full-length exams, and AAMC full-length exams. My AAMC FL average was 523/528. As a tutor for over eight years, I have extensive experience mentoring and teaching students of all ages and levels. Instead of making students memorize formulas and plug-and-chug to get answers, I encourage them to understand the principles and strategies behind each problem. My favorite teaching moment is helping students create their own examples and analogies to achieve that "eureka" moment when everything clicks.
