“You don’t try to build a wall. You don’t set out to build a wall. You don’t say ‘I’m going to build the biggest, baddest, greatest wall that’s ever been built.’ You don’t start there. You say ‘I’m gonna lay this brick as perfectly as a brick can be laid,’ and you do that every single day, and soon you have a wall.” – Will Smith
David is a compassionate, motivated, encouraging tutor who believes success is a result of hard work and consistent actions. David’s test-taking performance reflects his ability to utilize proven test-taking strategies and apply medical pathophysiology to standardized examinations. While initially subject to “resource overload,” David narrowed his focus to the most proven resources for Step 1 success. David began tutoring almost 5 years ago when he was an academic tutor for his university’s sports teams. Since then he has accumulated many hours tutoring medical students during pre-clinical course work, and those preparing for Step 1.
David’s tutoring success can be attributed to his ability to break down complex medical topics into digestible pieces. When approaching questions, he believes in a systematic approach to answering each question. These systems lead to a decreased likelihood of making “silly mistakes” on test day. David enjoys helping his students create connections and mental frameworks between the large volume of medical knowledge necessary for Step 1.
