Hi. My name is Reza I am currently a third-year medical student at the University of Glasgow. I remember how daunting and struggling it was the first time I was beginning to apply for medical school. From A-levels, Interviews, UCAT and personal statements there were a lot of things I had no idea about. This sense of feeling ‘lost’ is the primary reason I took on this role at medic mind. I genuinely want to teach and more importantly, fix aspiring students’ mistakes. I don’t want them to make the same ones I made and learned from during my time applying to university. Through my experiences, I want to guide young people to help get into medical school. I also was a former medic mind tutee myself so I am familiar with the system and how to approach students. In my free time, I enjoy playing basketball and cycling. Recently though, I have picked up the hobby of cooking.

Hi! I’m Devanga, a first-year medical student at King’s College London. I’ve always loved helping other aspiring medics, and after scoring in the top 1% on the UCAT (3300 B2) and receiving offers from all four of my choices, I want to share what I’ve learned with students going through the same process.

I’ve had plenty of experience with different MMI styles — ethical scenarios, communication tasks, hot-topic questions, teamwork activities, data interpretation, and patient-interaction stations. My goal is to help you build answers that are clear and structured, while also feeling confident, calm, and authentic in the interview room.

I also tutor IB subjects. As an IB graduate who scored 40/45, I teach HL Biology, HL Chemistry, SL Math AA, and SL French. I focus on making tricky content feel manageable and helping students develop the exam techniques that make a real difference.

My approach is friendly, supportive, and completely tailored to each student. Whether you want to boost your UCAT score, polish your personal statement, or prepare with confidence for MMIs, I’m here to help you feel ready and capable.

I’m genuinely excited to work with you and support you on your journey into medicine!

    Hello, I’m Charles, a 20-year-old third-year Politics and International Relations student at the University of Exeter. I was born in Hong Kong and completed both the IGCSE and IB curricula, receiving offers from universities such as York, Loughborough, Leicester, and Exeter for Biological Sciences and Politics, which I have chosen to follow.

    I’ve always enjoyed challenges, both academically and in sports. Growing up, I competed in a wide range of sports: from football and tennis to kung fu, which taught me discipline, resilience, and most importantly, patience. These qualities have shaped my approach to tutoring, helping me support students with understanding and encouragement as they work through their own challenges. I speak four languages: English, French, Spanish, and intermediate Chinese, and I enjoy bringing enthusiasm and a supportive attitude to every session.

    Having experienced different education systems and cultures, I understand that every student learns in their own way. My multilingual skills and international background help me connect with students from diverse backgrounds and adapt my teaching style to suit their individual needs. This flexibility ensures lessons are relevant, engaging, and effective.

    For me, tutoring is about more than just improving grades, it’s about building confidence and fostering a positive attitude toward learning. I aim to create a welcoming environment where students feel comfortable asking questions and making mistakes. Seeing my students grow both academically and personally is what makes tutoring truly rewarding.

    My name is Eloise Hayward, and I am an experienced tutor with over six years of teaching experience across Mathematics, Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Geography, Science, and Biomedical Science. I provide tailored tuition for students from KS1 through to University level, specialising in GCSE and A-Level preparation.

    My teaching approach is patient, supportive, and highly adaptable*. I focus on understanding each student’s unique learning style, enabling me to create structured, engaging lessons that build confidence and deliver lasting academic progress. I believe in fostering not only subject knowledge but also problem-solving skills and independent thinking.

    Over the past six years, I have tutored both in person and online, helping students achieve strong exam results and, more importantly, a deeper understanding of the subjects they study.

    Alongside tutoring, I have a strong academic and athletic background. My research paper on the effects of the menstrual cycle on athlete was published during my Biomedical Science studies — an achievement that reflects my analytical skills and dedication to evidence-based learning. In addition, I am proud to represent Great Britain Rugby 7s, an experience that has instilled in me the values of discipline, focus, and perseverance, which I bring into my teaching practice.

    I am passionate about helping students realise their full potential and equipping them with the confidence and tools to succeed academically and beyond.

    The chess tutor was fabulous. We played chess so that I could improve my thinking and technique but we also talked and analysed other matches where I could review the technique they used.

    I was a complete chess novice but wanted to start playing as a hobby. The chess teacher started from the beginning and explained things very clearly. I look forward to each lesson.
