About Me

My interest in biology began in high school and led me to study and work in this field. Studying and teaching biology is very enjoyable for me, and I do my best to convey this pleasure and excitement to my audience. The grandeur that you will see by understanding the structure and function of living systems is unparalleled or even unique.

Teaching Method

Teaching is conducted online, typically via Google Meet, which allows the use of a digital whiteboard and real-time problem-solving. Classes follow an interactive, question-and-answer–based format. Depending on the student’s academic level, various resources are provided. Periodic assessments or pre-session evaluations can be administered, and after each session, assignments are given to help deepen understanding of the material. The pace of the course is entirely dependent on the student’s progress, and additional time is devoted to topics that are essential or require further clarification. For teaching MCAT biology, I use Kaplan resources as well as my own five-volume biology series designed specifically for medical, dental, and pharmacy entrance exams. I am the author of this series, which I developed to cover the general biology topics required for these exams. Among the most well-known and competitive medical entrance exams are Italy’s IMAT and the MCAT in the United States and Canada—both of which fall fully within my area of expertise. I have conducted numerous courses dedicated to preparing students for these exams.
