Sonia: Middle tutor
Certified Tutor
I am currently a 4th year medical student at a US-MD program. I am looking to work with prospective medical school and college applicants. I know how stressful and overwhelming the application process can be, and I am committed to helping students succeed. Having attended an Ivy League University and being accepted to medical school on my first try, I am excited to help students with writing and editing services for personal statements, secondary applications, AMCAS most meaningful activities, Common App essays, or supplementary college essays. I also offer USMLE Step 1 and 2 tutoring.
I help students brainstorm ideas and personal examples that showcase their strengths. I believe that essays can truly set students apart during the application process, so I do my best to communicate with students and make myself available for questions. Aside from content, I also pay close attention to grammar, punctuation, word choice, sentence structure, and general essay organization.
Some of my credentials:
I graduated summa cum laude from the University of Pennsylvania with a GPA of 3.93. I earned a Bachelor of Arts in Neuroscience and a minor in Chemistry.
I am currently a 4th year medical student at the University of Massachusetts Chan Medical School. I am part of an MD/MPH dual-degree program with the University of Massachusetts Amherst. I have passed Step 1 on my first attempt and scored a 263 on Step 2, corresponding to the 84th percentile. I am happy to offer USMLE tutoring.
My experience includes more than 2,000 hours of tutoring for medical school personal statements/secondary application editing, USMLE, SAT, and high school math and chemistry.
