I am very happy with our experience so far with Varsity Tutors. They matched my daughter with reading specialist Mary and she is wonderful! My 10 year old daughter feels happy after her sessions and believes her tutor has already helped her.

Jakob

Certified Tutor

Hello! I am a medical student who recently graduated with degrees in biochemistry and neuroscience from the University of Wisconsin - Madison.

While I am capable at helping students with specific content in their classes, I feel that my strengths are in helping students to optimize their studying and understanding with tested methods and resources. I have successfully completed both the ACT and the MCAT, and can assist students in content related to the exams and study techniques related to them.

I have conducted research in the Department of Integrative Biology as well as the Department of English at the University of Wisconsin - Madison. These experiences make me a great resource for students who desire feedback on personal statements, essays, and research papers.

These last 6 years have been a whirlwind of interesting academic and personal experiences for me, and I would love to share my knowledge with other students and give them the advice I wish I had on my journey.

Hobbies

Outside of school, I love playing the guitar and going on hikes with my dog. I live in Wisconsin, so in the winters it can be a little rough, but nothing some cheese and music can't fix. In many ways though, my passion is philosophy. I am always ready to ask some fun questions and see where they lead us. I chose medicine as it seems to me the perfect blend between science and philosophy.
