Critical Thinking Tutors : 1-1 Critical Thinking Preparation

Hi I’m Alina!. I’m a fourth year medical student at the University of Liverpool. I really enjoy meeting new people and helping them to achieve their goals so tutoring is a great fit!

At A-level I studied Biology (A*), Chemistry (A) and English Literature (A*).

At GCSE, the main subjects I studied were: Maths (8), English Literature (9), English Language (9), Biology (9), Physics (9) and Chemistry (8)

The academic demands of applying to medicine are high, and as such, I had to develop a strong work ethic and revision/exam techniques, which I am more than happy to pass on in our sessions.

I used tutors throughout secondary school, mainly for help with Biology, Chemistry and English. I found the help of my tutors invaluable; without it, I don’t think I would have achieved the same grades or even gotten into medical school!

I also think that the interview preparation course that I attended was crucial to me receiving offers from Medical schools. This allowed me to face my fears by stimulating the interview environment so boosted my confidence for the real ones. I also think the feedback I received was so useful to reflect on and analyse in order to improve my performance. I therefore would really like to help others in the same position!

A dedicated, experienced Educator and Facilitator with a strong background in project management, report writing, international and digital education. My passion lies in helping individuals overcome challenges and achieve growth and success. With a blend of leadership expertise, coaching skills and planning, I am committed to empowering others to reach their full potential. I maintain enhanced disclosure on the DBS update service for current and prospective roles. I’ve worked in school and online settings, plus developed and delivered programmes. As such, I understand end to end course cycles, assessments and individual learning styles.
Currently I am a Specialist ASC Mentor supporting Autistic Spectrum students online and in person (one to one, weekly sessions). This is highly individual in scope, depending on student needs, also covering academic, social, wellbeing and organisation support.

Outside of tutoring, I have taken part in photography exhibitions in Seoul, mainly of documentary photography and graphic design.

As a current PhD student in English at the University of Cambridge, with a solid academic background including a BA in Comparative Literature from QMUL and a Mst in English Literature (1830-1914), I am thrilled to offer my expertise and guidance in English language and literature, creative writing, Italian, and essay skills, as well as help with university admissions.
I am bilingual, fluent in Italian and English, and since 2016, I have been tutoring students aged 10 to 19 in various subjects. Notably, I have assisted four students in securing MSt/MPhil offers from Oxbridge in humanities subjects and supported many others in gaining admission to prestigious institutions within the Russell Group.
My tutoring style is characterised by enthusiasm, organisation, and adaptability to your specific needs. I believe in fostering a comfortable learning environment where questions are encouraged. Having navigated the application processes myself, I understand the importance of tailored support for personal statements and interview preparation.
Whether you are preparing for exams, refining your language skills, or navigating the complexities of university applications, I am here to help. Together, we will work at a pace that aligns with your learning style, building your self-confidence along the way 🙂

Hi there!

My name is Stefan, and I am a (very) recent Law graduate from the University of Oxford.

The more recent part of my academic journey began at the age of 13, when I left my home country of Bulgaria in order to study independently in the UK. I ended up boarding as an international student at Ardingly College – a relatively small school in West Sussex – where I attained 9 IGCSEs at grade 9, an academic scholarship in Philosophy and Mathematics, and – ultimately – 44 points in the IB Diploma.

Following Ardingly, I went on to read Law at Trinity College, Oxford, where I held a Mowat Exhibition and Mowat Scholarship. I achieved a Distinction in my first-year Law Moderations, oversaw the Trinity College Law Society as Co-President during my second year, and graduated from the University with a First Class Honours.

While studying for my undergraduate degree, I was able to secure three Vacation Schemes at top-ranking commercial law firms in London, one of which I have now accepted a Training Contract with. Prior to its commencement, I will be studying for the SQE, as well as a Master’s in Law, at the University of Law.

As to my extracurriculars, I am an avid debater and public speaker. At Ardingly, I won the school’s Interhouse Debating Competition twice, participated in multiple MUNs, and reached the regional finals of the ESU Schools’ Mace competition. I also achieved a Distinction in my LAMDA Grade 8 Public Speaking Examinations and delivered various speeches around the college. Prior to my studies in the UK, I won a CEESA Speech and Debate tournament with a speech on ‘The Peril of Popularity’, which I later delivered as a TEDx talk.

Alongside debating and public speaking, I have also always had a strong passion for essay-writing: at Ardingly, I won the school’s Scholars’ Essay Competition (with an 8,000-word submission on Art History and Aesthetics); was Highly Commended in the NCH Law Essay Competition; and was Commended in the John Locke Institute Law Essay Competition.

In my free time, I enjoy weight training, playing the piano, and writing poetry. I also have a strong background in breakdancing and callisthenics, both of which I used to train in Bulgaria. I enjoy golfing in the summer, and skiing in the winter.

Hi, my name is Piraveen and I’m currently studying at Queen Mary’s after graduating from St George’s University of London. If you need any help with your studies in terms of Medicine or just the sciences I would be happy to help and get you the best results possible. I have attended QE Grammar School since Year 7 which is a very selective school and it pushed me beyond what I thought I was capable of. I will do my best to ensure that students achieve the best they can and to go beyond the scope of what I’m teaching as well if necessary. I will ensure that you will not only improve definitely at what I am teaching you but that you will do the best that you can.

I will provide engaging targeted lessons focusing on the parts where students struggle on but still remaining thorough to guide my students every step of the way.
