Hi there! My name is Gabriel and I am an MCAT Coach with Apply Yourself!

I am someone who has always had a passion for learning, which led me to pursue a Bachelor of Science Honours degree with a major in Biology and a minor in Psychology. I am proud to say that my dedication to my studies landed me a spot on the Dean’s Honour list. For me, education is a top priority, and I love to learn new things whenever I get the chance.

Working as a Research Assistant instilled in me a deep appreciation for the importance of contributing to the field of science. That’s why I’m always looking for ways to expand my knowledge and grow.

I am thrilled to be an MCAT Coach at Apply Yourself, as it allows me to share my passion for learning and help aspiring medical students achieve their dreams. Having personally gone through the rigorous process of preparing for the MCAT and spending countless hours studying, I feel that my experience has greatly enhanced my coaching ability and provided me with valuable insights into the coaching process.

As a Coach, I believe that empathy is key. Understanding the perspectives and experiences of others allows me to connect with them on a personal level and tailor my coaching to their unique needs and preferences. Effective communication is also essential, and I strive to actively listen, ask meaningful questions, and provide clear positive feedback to help you stay motivated and on track.

Patience is another important characteristic that I bring to my coaching practice. I understand that change takes time, and I am committed to providing support and encouragement in hopes of working towards your bigger goals and ultimately secure a spot at your dream medical school.

Giving back to the community is something that I am also deeply passionate about, which is why I have spent countless hours volunteering over the years. Whether it be helping my local shelter or participating in a community clean-up, I find joy in knowing that I am making a positive impact on the world around me.

In my free time, you’ll find me outdoors, exploring nature and taking in the beauty of my surroundings. Hiking and sightseeing are some of my favourite activities, and I find peace and comfort in the great outdoors. I also enjoy shooting hoops at the local basketball court.
