About
Hello,
My name is Kamina. I would love to help you reach your academic goals and maximize your potential. I help students like you realize the ways they learn the best. This helps to make your studying more efficient, more productive, and more effective. I specialize in MCAT and science services.
I have extensive tutoring and mentorship experience from the time I was in high school through college. I graduated from Stanford in 2018 with a BS in Human Biology. I am currently applying to medical school and already have some exciting prospects to choose between for Fall of 2020. I scored above the 90th percentile on the MCAT and have taken extensive biology, chemistry, physics, and other science classes at the undergrad and graduate levels. I look forward to helping you reach your goals.

I love seeing students grow. They grow not just academically, but in their confidence and their self-esteem. I believe sometimes it only takes a nudge in the right direction to make a world of difference. I believe in everyone's potential and I most enjoy helping students realize that potential.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
I first start with an orientation session where I learn about your goals, strengths, and weaknesses. I ask about any upcoming events you're preparing for (tests, presentations, etc.) then work together to create a study plan to prepare for those goals. I gather information about how you normally study and the ways in which you like to learn. I then tailor my tutoring style to best cater to your needs.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
BS Human Biology from Stanford University
Above 90th percentile MCAT score
Extensive undergraduate and graduate level science classes
