About Me

Having just finished medical school, I'm too well aware of the rigorous academic demands placed on students these days. While having come far, I've certainly struggled and I honestly believe that struggle is what makes me the perfect tutor. Oftentimes, teachers choose a subject to teach because they hey an affinity for it. However, this sometimes makes it hard for them to relate to students who don't grasp the material as well. Having completed most upper level science and math coursework, in addition to my medical school courses, I know just how hard they can be and they certainly did not come to me naturally. I had to work extremely hard to grasp many of the concepts but I eventually came up with strategies to tackle the material. Having struggled myself, I honestly feel I can relate better to other students in a similar predicament and therefore can better tutor them. As I mentioned before, I just finished medical school and I'm awaiting my residency match. I'm planning on pursuing orthopaedic surgery. In my free time I enjoy playing/watching basketball, working out, reading, enjoying movies and great restaurants with friends. I'm extremely hardworking, patients, and would love to help you overcome your academic struggles to the best of my ability.

Q&A with Abbas

I think the best teacher is one who conforms to their student's needs. Oftentimes, a teacher will teach in a manner that they assume is best rather than catering their style to their student's learning styles. Students range from visual, auditory, read-write, and kinesthetic styles. I make it my priority to identify each student’s style early on so that I can teach them in the most efficient manner.
