Hello, I am a third year medical student studying at Imperial College London. I have been tutoring for over 5 years in mathematics, science and medical applications, both one-to-one and as part of institutions/companies. I understand the uneasiness many students face in beginning their medical admissions process which is why I specialise in offering interview preparation, personal statement sessions, NHS current affairs and general admissions guidance.
As well doing individual tutoring sessions, I have worked with various well-known companies specialising in medical courses and tutored students at Oxford International college, so I have the expertise in guiding and preparing students through various parts of the admissions process.
I believe the tips on strengthening medical applications lies in identifying personal weaknesses, showcasing a student's uniqueness, unlocking their motivation for the subject and practicing speaking about themselves in order to sell their story on paper and in person.
When it comes to gaining a place at medical school - it's the details that matter!
My structure of teaching initially involves gaining the trust and knowledge of my students and using that to guide the sessions. I am very flexible in helping students in the areas they want to improve which ultimately drives them to not only improve their applications, but also themselves as a prospective medical student and doctor.
