About John
I am a third-year medical student at St. George's University (SGU), currently completing clinical rotations in New Jersey. I finished my preclinical years in Grenada and successfully passed USMLE Step 1, making the high-yield material fresh and clinically relevant in my mind.
As an International Medical Graduate (IMG), I bring a perspective most tutors cannot offer. I understand the unique pressures of the IMG path — the timeline, the stakes, and what it genuinely takes to pass Step 1 outside of a traditional US medical school setting.
My teaching approach is built around your weak areas, your timeline, and your reasoning skills — not generic content dumps. I help students understand the logic behind questions so they can handle anything the exam throws at them.
I have a strong interest in technology and AI, which means I bring a modern, structured approach to study strategy and session planning.
I offer a free 30-minute intro call before any commitment so we can align on goals and confirm fit.

I'm a third-year medical student currently on clinical rotations in the US, and I just completed my preclinical years — which means Step 1 material is still very much alive in my head.
I offer personalized, 1-on-1 USMLE Step 1 tutoring designed around your specific weak areas, your timeline, and your learning style. My sessions are high-yield and focused — not generic content review.
What we work on together:
— High-yield pathophysiology and pharmacology
— UWorld and NBME question reasoning

Perfect! John explains complex medical concepts in a clear way, even for students without a medical background (like me, with a software engineering). His ability to connect topics across subjects really helped me develop a deeper and more structured understanding of medicine

John is one of my fellow students who is at the top of our class. He has the foundations really well understood and can teach them in a logical manner. He has tutored me many times and it's definitely worth it, as it's helped me get better grades.
The absolute best teacher I’ve ever had! He’s so patient, calm, and understanding. He teaches very, very well!
John has been a phenomenal tutor. He single-handedly broke down all the important concepts and thoroughly explained them. His techniques to approach complex problems are very useful and simple. 10/10 would recommend.
Great with people, incredibly friendly and welcoming attitude, explains in easy to understand terminology and won't hesitate to help whenever you ask.
John is an exceptional medicine tutor — knowledgeable, patient, and incredibly clear in his explanations. He breaks down complex concepts into digestible ideas without sacrificing depth. His clinical insight as a medical student gives lessons a real-world edge. Highly recommend him to anyone serious about understanding medicine at a deeper level.
John explains complex medical concepts in a clear way, even for students without a medical background (like me with a software engineering background). His ability to connect topics across subjects really helped me develop a deeper and more structured understanding of medicine.
I can’t recommend John enough! He's thorough, patient, and knowledgeable. He breaks things down in a way that makes sense and takes the time to make sure you understand, not just memorize. He’ll work with you until you feel confident in the material, and he’s always supportive, a pleasure to work with, and easy to ask questions whenever needed. Beyond helping with med school topics, he really pushes you to improve and be your best, which I really appreciated! Anyone who gets the chance to work with John should be considered lucky!
