PERSONAL STATEMENT

Tutoring has been an incredibly rewarding opportunity for me. It grants perspective, helps me stay fresh on more obscure content, and crystalizes my own understanding of high yield topics by educating others. I strongly believe in using time effectively, focusing on quality over quantity. Yes, you can study 70 hours a week for marginal improvement on scores, but I prioritize high yield resources and mapping out exactly how my time needs to be allocated. Balancing medical success with a healthy personal life is critical to long term success, and I want to help you match into your dream program without alienating all of your friends and family.

Keith helped me immensely for my MS3 clerkship shelf exams. I struggle with NBME specifically because english is not my first language and Keith made sure to teach me how to breakdown question stems and be able to get to the correct answer. I also changed my study habits taking his advice and scored my highest score so far on the ObGyn shelf which is supposed to be a hard shelf. Reference Link.

I had a great experience with my tutor Keith. He was able to explain the topics in a straightforward and easily memorable way. We worked through questions to strategize and figure out my weak spots. I was able to score higher on Level 2 than I would have been able to on my own. Highly recommend Medlearnity tutors! Reference Link.

Keith from Medlearnity made a huge difference during my MS3 clerkship shelf exams. He helped me breakdown NBME english and get to the right answer. I was able to score my highest score on ObGyn shelf so far. And I will continue to study from him for Step 2. He's an excellent tutor, he is always on time and well prepared. He knows his stuff really well and is able to guide me through each concept really understanding where I go wrong even when I don't know it myself sometimes. He is great.
