Jiatian
Certified MCAT Tutor
Jiatian
AB Rice University
8+ Years Tutoring

As a medical student who has already cleared both USMLE Step 1 and Step 2 CK, Jiatian knows the MCAT's content landscape from the other side — which biochemistry pathways, physics concepts, and psychology theories actually matter most and how the exam tests them. She teaches a question-attack strategy for CARS and the science sections that trains students to extract key data from dense passages before even looking at answer choices. Her Rice University science background and firsthand board exam experience mean she can connect MCAT topics to the bigger picture of what medical schools expect.

MD Thomas Jefferson University • MD University of Notre Dame
6+ Years Tutoring

Ning earned her Doctor of Medicine degree, which means she didn't just study MCAT content — she applied it through years of medical training. She breaks down each section's strategy differently, from amino acid structure questions in the Biological Foundations section to passage-based reasoning in CARS, treating the exam as four distinct challenges rather than one monolithic test. Rated 4.9 by students.

Cynthia
BS Emory University
4+ Years Tutoring

I am a graduate of Emory University, where I received my Bachelor of Science in Neuroscience and Behavioral Biology with a minor in Dance and Movement Studies. Throughout college, I have trained extensively tutoring students of various ages across many subjects. As an "Emory Reads" tutor for four years, I helped alleviate education inequality by providing weekly tutoring to students in Atlanta's lowest performing elementary schools to enhance reading comprehension and mathematics skills. I worked with the schools to transition engaged learning to an online format. I am a firm proponent of education, and am committed to providing my students with the best learning experience achievable. I am passionate about helping struggling students face the challenges of early education, and help them build a solid foundation for the future. I also served several semesters working with high school and college-age students. As a Teaching Assistant for college-level physics, I developed a sincere bond with my students as I strived to help them achieve there academic goals. I also worked as a peer-editor for papers and personal statements, as appointed by my professors who recognized my strong writing skills. For three years, I tutored and mentored high school students who were passionate about pursuing the sciences in college. I helped them through their AP coursework, preparing for standardized tests, and the college application process. I have worked with students to get into Ivy League universities, Berkeley, UCLA, NYU, and more. I am looking forward to being able to helping every student reach their personal potential, and sharing the joy of eventual success!

Miya
BA University Of Western Ontario
2+ Years Tutoring

Scoring well on the MCAT requires more than content mastery — it demands the ability to synthesize biology, chemistry, physics, psychology, and critical reading under extreme time pressure. Miya's microbiology and immunology background covers the science sections deeply, and her experience tutoring English and reading gives her a practical edge when coaching the CARS section. She builds study plans around each student's weakest content areas and drills passage-based reasoning from day one.

Reid
PhD Harvard University • BA Wesleyan University
1+ Years Tutoring

I am a graduate of Wesleyan University, where I received my Bachelor of Arts in Sociology with High Honors. With eight years of experience working in education, I've tutored students in math, science, history, and English, as well as helped students prepare for standardized tests. I've guided adults towards passing the US Citizenship Exam and taught English in India, where I lived for six months. Whenever I work with a student I personalize the lessons to fit their particular learning style, since I know every student is unique and having the right fit can make all the difference in making learning fun and effective. My strengths are tutoring the social sciences and humanities, as well as making math and standardized tests approachable to students that normally don't like those subjects. In my spare time I like traveling, spending time in the outdoors (climbing & backpacking), meditation, and playing soccer. Next fall I will be beginning my PhD in Education at Harvard University.

MS Simmons College • BA Washington University in St. Louis
1+ Years Tutoring

I am a graduate of Washington University in St Louis, where I received my Bachelor of Arts in History with minors in Humanities and Anthropology. Since graduation, I have worked as a tutor, teacher, and director of tutors at a charter public middle school in Boston. During this time I also received my Masters in Mild to Moderate Disabilities from Simmons College. I have worked extensively with students with a range of abilities, including students with specific learning disabilities, emotional impairments, dyslexia, and ADHD. My teaching experience has given me a deep understanding of the knowledge and habits essential to academic success and has given me the opportunity to hone a variety of strategies that ensure students at each level can achieve their academic goals. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, my favorite ones are Reading, Elementary/Middle School Math, History, and Test Prep. In my experience, tutoring is the most rewarding when a student has that "aha!" moment and achieves a new level of understanding and confidence in his/her abilities. I am a firm believer in the transformative power of education, and I see my role to be that of a facilitator and coach who is there to help the student reach his/her goals through individualized support and rigorous practice. In my free time, I enjoy reading, running, practicing my Spanish, and discovering new music. I am also an avid traveler and just got back from a 3 month trip to South America. I look forward to the opportunity to work with you!

Frequently Asked Questions

Score improvement depends on your starting point and study commitment, but students typically see gains of 3-8 points on the 528-point scale when working with a tutor on a structured study plan. The most significant improvements come from identifying your specific weak areas—whether that's organic chemistry, passage comprehension, or timing strategies—and targeting those gaps systematically. Your tutor will help you track progress through practice tests to ensure you're moving in the right direction.

Your first session focuses on assessment and planning. Your tutor will review your diagnostic test scores, understand your target medical schools and timeline, and identify which sections (Chemical and Physical Sciences, Biological Sciences, Psychological Concepts, or Reading Comprehension) need the most attention. Together, you'll create a personalized study roadmap that fits your schedule and addresses your specific challenges, whether that's pacing issues, content gaps, or test anxiety.

Timing is one of the biggest challenges MCAT test-takers face, and it's highly learnable. Your tutor will teach you section-specific pacing strategies—like how to quickly identify passage structure in CARS or which chemistry problems to skip and return to—and then have you practice these techniques under timed conditions. Through repeated practice tests with feedback, you'll develop the rhythm and confidence to work through all four sections without rushing or running out of time.

Tutors use a combination of diagnostic practice tests, question-by-question analysis, and conversation to pinpoint exactly where you're struggling. They'll look at patterns—do you miss certain question types consistently? Is your performance worse under time pressure? Are there specific science topics that trip you up?—and then focus your study time on those gaps rather than reviewing material you already know well. This targeted approach is much more efficient than generic test prep.

Practice tests are essential for MCAT preparation because they simulate the real exam experience and reveal your true strengths and weaknesses. Your tutor will recommend a testing schedule, review your results in detail to understand why you missed questions, and help you apply those lessons to future practice tests. The goal is to use each practice test as a learning tool—not just a score—so you're continuously improving your accuracy and speed.

The best MCAT tutoring balances both. While you need solid foundational knowledge in chemistry, biology, physics, and psychology, the MCAT also tests your ability to read passages quickly, eliminate wrong answers strategically, and manage time under pressure. Your tutor will address content gaps where they exist, but will also teach you the strategic thinking and question-analysis skills that separate good scores from great ones.

Most students benefit from 3-4 months of focused MCAT preparation, though this varies based on your starting point and target score. Your tutor will help you create a realistic weekly schedule that balances content review, practice questions, and full-length practice tests. A typical approach might include 10-15 hours per week of study, with tutoring sessions used to clarify difficult concepts, review practice test mistakes, and refine your test-taking approach.

Absolutely. Test anxiety often stems from feeling unprepared or uncertain about your approach, both of which tutoring directly addresses. As you work through challenging material with expert guidance and see your practice test scores improve, your confidence naturally grows. Your tutor can also teach you specific strategies for managing stress on test day, like pacing techniques that keep you calm and mental checkpoints to refocus if you feel overwhelmed.
