Sylvia Rhodes

University of Pennsylvania, MD Candidate

01 In their words

Personal statement

“It has always been incredibly rewarding for me to mentor and tutor. Preparing for medical exams and admissions can be highly stressful, and I always strive to use my past experiences to make this process easier for my mentees while guiding them to their desired destinations. Along the way, I always enjoy the personal relationships I form with my tutees, while I watch them learn, improve, and succeed in achieving their goals. Additionally, I am always learning from my students and the process of teaching itself.”
