Biochemistry Tutors : 1-1 Biochemistry Preparation

Hi, my name is Arun and I am currently a 5th year medical student at Sheffield University. I had 4 interviews and received offers from all four. I am a well-experienced tutor having completed over 2000 hours of tutoring in a range of topics, from GCSEs and A-Levels to UCAT and interviews as well as university consultations

I was one of the few students to undertake the A-level exams in November 2020 after my exams were cancelled due to Coronavirus. I am dyslexic so I have weird and wonderful ways to remember critical information and I hope I can support prospective doctors (dyslexic or non) to achieve their dream of becoming a medical professional.

I was not labelled as your typical medical student by my school. I continued to persevere until I reached the goal that I set for myself, with the help of my family.

I hope we can work well together and achieve what you want, just like I did. 🙂

I am a final year medical student at Flinders University who is about to graduate soon. In addition, to studying medicine at Flinders I have also participated in extracurriculars such as university sports and medrevue, as stage manager. Medrevue which is a musical that is organized by medical students every year.

I moved to Australia 10 years ago and did not have much experience with their tertiary education system. However, my experiences with volunteering and private tutoring helped me build a network which later helped me gain useful advice when trying to seek admission into an undergraduate university course. I believe I would be of use to anyone who needs some mentoring while trying to navigate the tertiary education system in Australia.

The networks I was able to establish during the course of my undergraduate degree helped me a lot when trying to gain admission into medicine in Australia. I studied Bachelors of Biomedicine at University of Melbourne graduating with a First class Honors Average and a GPA of 6.8out of a maximum of 7. I was a subjective representative as well. Following my undergraduate degree a spent an year of honors research with the aged care group at the Royal Melbourne Hospital. As a result of my research I was able to publish articles in reputable journals.

I am currently studying medicine at Flinders where some members of the faculty have let me know that I have been scoring in the top 10 % of students. I am a anatomy/dissection tutor for junior medical students as well

Hi there! My name is Isabella and I am a masters student studying marine biology at the University of St. Andrews. Having always had an affinity for the ocean, I began working towards my goal of being a marine biologist from an early age. I now specialise in the study of deep-sea corals and their possible future application in pharmaceutical drugs. Having worked in an academic environment as a research assistant I know that my particular field is one that is always evolving, with new research being published every day, keeping the subject fresh and exciting

During my three years of tutoring and classroom teaching I have found that the enthusiasm I bring to learning leads to curiosity, which in turn leads to positive habits of pursing knowledge and challenges the mindset that studying is a chore. My goals include creating an environment in which the tutee is able to communicate their problem areas with ease and also encouraging self-learning by giving students opportunities to work through problems themselves once familiar with the subject matter.

Hi ! My name is Ella and i’m currently a 4th year vet student at The Royal Veterinary College, London. I previously studied the gateway to Veterinary medicine course at RVC so have had an extra year of learning and experience at the university. Although I can understand and have been through the stress and anxiety of applying to vet school, I want to help and allow you to turn that around and really enjoy and get the most out of your interviews and application the same way I did! I also used medic mind to be able to achieve where I am today and since then have helped others with their vet application so know all the tips and tricks to help you get into the university you want. In relevance to the veterinary medicine application process, I have worked very hard and even now have a published book on how to get into veterinary medicine! With my experience I want to give everyone who wants and deserves it the opportunity to study veterinary medicine.

Hi! My name is Joseph and I studied biological Natural Sciences at the University of Cambridge and am currently a qualified secondary school science teacher. I specialised in Pathology, but have taken physiology, neurobiology and chemistry at degree level too. I understand how exhausting the Oxbridge application process can be, and how challenging it is to balance this with preparation for exams too. I want to assure you that your success is my priority and I am happy to help in any way that I can. Whether you need help with your personal statement, admissions exams, interviews or with your end of year exams I am determined to help you succeed. I hope that I can help you be excited about applying to University too – researching universities and writing applications feels daunting but as someone who is having a great time at university currently, I know that the end result is worth it. I do a lot of theatre at university which requires a lot of time management skills to balance alongside a demanding degree, but I do this because I understand the importance of finding joy outside of academic work. In my lessons I will help you succeed but I will encourage this in a healthy and productive way.

Hi I am Aanchal! Im a 3rd year medical student at the university of buckingham. I love teaching and tutoring and helping others gain knowledge for many reasons, most importantly the rewards of my students passing is like no other. I have tutored before and have been successful at it and as a tutor I am very flexible and friendly and am able to meet your needs to avoid disappointment. I was born raised in England but am interested in health in other countries as well. I have quite a bit of experience in the medical field and would love to share this knowledge as everyone should benefit. In the future i hope to become a plastic surgeon and am currently working towards my goals. Please do contact me if you have any questions and i will try and respond within a few hours and thats a guarantee 🙂

When I was doing my A-levels I originally saw myself as doing Law. I chose my A-levels in Biology, Chemistry and History. I got into Law school at Swansea University until 2 weeks in I had a change of heart!

Instead I did a BSc in Medical Genetics at Swansea University and received (68.81% average). What did I learn? I learnt that using a combination of different learning techniques, was the best for not only knowledge retention but applying my understanding to more difficult topics such as embryology or complex organic chemistry. For example, in embryology I used videos or my friends to get an overview and get a real understanding of the topic, then using lectures/textbooks to hone in on the factual content and then answering questions which helped me identify key issues and common misunderstandings. Using other resources like posters or flashcards were helpful to improve knowledge.

Shortly after gradating from Swansea University with honours, I joined the Wellcome Sanger Institute, as a research scientist in SARS-CoV-2 sequencing. I began to love science again, because my field of research in microbiology helped the work against SARS-CoV-2. Currently, I am involved in the Respiratory Virus and Microbiome initiative (RVI) for further pandemic preparedness. Having experienced the pleasure of immediate benefit of my work, I saw medicine providing similar reward for my endeavours and took the UCAT and GAMSAT. I was quite upset that my first attempt was not good as I hoped but that did not put me off and I re-sat those exams with a better understanding of how to revise efficiently. I developed some techniques in order to stick to a regimented schedule, doing a bit everyday, under the values of ICT (Intensity, Consistency, Timing).

More important than anything was to immerse myself into hobbies outside of education I rediscovered my passion for gym, hiking and rugby, attempting how to boulder but not quite got the hang of it 🙂 Did make it difficult revising when you were sore the next day. During my application for medicine, I embarked on an MSc in Genomic Medicine at Kings and St George’s to keep the “grey cells running” and awaiting a predicted 1st! The icing on the cake was having the opportunity to stay at the Wellcome Sanger Institute in order complete my MSc dissertation on the RVI project with them. For my medicine interview prep I actually got tutored from medic mind and found the tutoring and resources from medic mind was a game changer and allowed me translate soft skills I learnt during my prep to my role in research.

I have been granted an honorary position at the Wellcome Sanger Institute where I have the opportunity to contribute to research and the literature. My particular areas of expertise include Biology, Chemistry and research methodology.

I am a final year medical student at the University of Exeter whose academic, educational, and leadership work centres on health equity, dermatology education, and structural reform within medical curricula. I am the founder of Skin For All, an evidence-informed digital education platform designed to improve the representation of diverse skin tones in dermatology teaching. The platform now features over 30 dermatological conditions and has reached more than 10,000 page views and 4,000 unique users internationally.

I am an award-recognised educator with over four years of teaching and mentoring experience across school, college, and undergraduate medical education settings. My teaching spans English, Maths, and Science, alongside core medical topics including anatomy and physiology, the musculoskeletal, immune, and nervous systems, as well as clinical exam preparation. I have delivered highly commended teaching sessions, including an Anatomy and Physiology lecture at Exeter College, and have received a Gold Standard Teaching Award in recognition of effective, engaging, and student-centred teaching practice.

My teaching philosophy is grounded in accessibility, inclusivity, and clinical relevance. I place particular emphasis on supporting widening-participation and under-represented learners, using clear explanations, case-based learning, and confidence-building approaches. I have provided personalised mentoring through organisations such as First Class Learning, Coach Bright, and community-based programmes supporting refugee children in Exeter, and have mentored over 15 medical students in exam strategy, resource development, and navigating medical training.

Alongside direct teaching, I develop innovative educational resources to support student learning, including structured revision guides on cranial nerves, obstetric case-based scenarios, and anatomy frameworks, many of which are used by peers and mentees. I am also the co-host of the Very Junior Doctors podcast, where I support aspiring medics through applications, transitions, and early medical training, and the creator of the Future Dr newsletter, which aims to make medical opportunities and guidance more accessible.

My educational and advocacy work has included invited talks and teaching sessions at TEDxNHS, the British Medical Association (BMA) Student Conference, the University of Exeter Medical School, and multiple national medical education and anti-racism conferences. My work has been recognised internationally, including the 2024 American Medical Student Association (AMSA) Racial Justice in Medicine Award, making me the first British medical student to receive this honour. Additional recognition includes the Rising Star in Healthcare Award (WeAreTheCity, 2024), the BMBS Citizenship Award (2023), and shortlisting for the Exeter Students’ Guild Academic Experience Award (2025).

Through my work in teaching innovation, inclusive curriculum development, and student advocacy, I am committed to contributing to a more equitable, representative, and patient-centred medical education system in the UK and internationally.
