Dental Therapy Interview Tutors : 1-1 Dental Therapy Interview Preparation

Hi there! My name is Hafsa and I’m a dentist graduated from The University of Manchester in 2024. After successfuly receiving interviews at all 3 dental schools I applied to, and receiving offers from 2 of them I have a lot of experience I can share to complete a successful and eye-catching application.The personal statement being what sells you on paper and your personal traits being what sells you at your interview. There is so much that is being considered. After experiencing both panel and MMI interviews I have lots of key tips and advice I wish someone told me when I was applying. From volunteering, to personal statements to interview tricks, I can be your support throughout the process. I am on this platform to help increase the number of successful applicants – you could be one of them! 🙂

Hi I’m Asvitha. I am going into my first year at Cardiff University to study Dentistry. I have previously completed a degree in Dental Hygiene at the University of Portsmouth. I have always wanted to become a dentist and from applying to dentistry second time I was able to get into dental school. I have an outgoing and funny personality so I am approachable for anyone. I enjoy spending time with family as well as outdoor activities. I like to have an active lifestyle to ensure I have a balanced life. It’s important when studying demanding courses like dentistry, having a balanced lifestyle can help with stress. I have over 4 years of tutoring experience for students studying GCSE and A-Level. I have tutored students for English Maths and Science with all my previous students obtaining grades over 7 and above.

I’m a fourth-year Dentistry student studying at Trinity College Dublin. In my free time, I find joy in both running and swimming. I’ve been fortunate to receive offers from all four of my preferred universities in the UK, namely Glasgow, Belfast, Cardiff, and Liverpool. My academic achievements include securing A*A*A at A-levels, and I achieved a UCAT score of 2680. Hailing from Northern Ireland, my lifelong aspiration to become a dentist has been deeply rooted in my unwavering passion for healthcare. From an early age, I’ve been captivated by the profound impact healthcare professionals have on people’s lives, and dentistry, in particular, has held a special place in my heart. The opportunity to combine scientific knowledge with hands-on patient care has been a driving force behind my academic journey. It’s a privilege to pursue my dreams in the field of dentistry, and I’m committed to making a positive difference in oral healthcare.

Currently studying medicine at the University of Manchester

I am a passionate and proactive tutor from Manchester, England and I strive to help my students better themselves and achieve their goals through effective, targeted guidance. I look forward to assisting in boosting your confidence and competency levels.

I am also an excellent communicator at all levels and can be relied on to work well both as part of a team and individually. I thrive on a challenge and have delivered my best results when faced with pressing targets.

I have been studying Medicine (biology integrated) at university level for 3 years now and I also have a chemistry background, so I hold the necessary experience to confidently teach either of these subjects, as well as many more. Whether you are a beginner, intermediate or senior, I can create a bespoke study plan aimed at furthering your knowledge and skills.

I look forward to working with students to develop their talents and skills, using tailored lessons that target areas of weakness.

Hello,
My name is Sharvika, a dental student who is committed to helping students achieve academic success and has a strong enthusiasm for education. I believe that, filling in knowledge gaps and fostering an environment of learning encourages comprehension and curiosity and I’m an expert in determining each student’s unique learning preferences and adjusting instructions to guarantee a greater understanding of the material. Beyond textbooks, I hope to empower and inspire individuals by fostering a love of learning that goes beyond the classroom. Selecting me as your tutor means choosing a dedicated guide who is passionate about YOUR development, eager to help you reach your full potential, and involved in your success.
My method of teaching is customised to each student, taking into account their own learning preferences and shortcomings.

My name is Siddeeqah.
Currently, I am a second year dental student.
I recently completed my A levels in biology chemistry and maths. I then decided to go along the science route and pursue a career in dentistry.
I chose dentistry for a number of different reasons. Dentistry is a fulfilling career as it will allow me to actively improve the oral health of my patients which will be very rewarding. Dentistry is also a multi faceted career which combines many different skills such as problem solving, manual dexterity, good communication as well as time management which is quite appealing. It also provides a good work life balance and there is always the opportunity to further specialise into your chosen field of study.
My interest in science stems from secondary school. I enjoyed biology the most since I was intrigued to learn about the inner workings of the human body. I progressed and studied biology at a level to further develop my knowledge and currently, at university I study anatomy and histology which are both branches of biology.
I also really enjoyed maths throughout secondary school and college. My favourite part of maths was trigonometry at a level. I liked the challenge of solving difficult equations. Maths allowed me to develop transferable skills such as problem solving and thinking analytically and critically which will also be required of me as a dentist in the future.

I would describe myself as a very driven character, and that is probably what has led me to my pathway into dentistry. It takes a lot of determination and I feel that I have the ability to not only Ade but inspire students to be able to push on to go into these very academic prospects of careers to fulfil their own dreams, I currently have a lot of experience in teaching not only in personal statements but also the UCAT, BMAT, interview preparation, as well as just general coaching on advice on what to do. Not only for dentistry but also medicine because that was another and I was healthcare profession. I was also considering alongside dentistry there is also dental hygiene and therapy which I’m also very familiar with. I would say I like to have a positive effect on everyone and people were described as a very friendly and outgoing individual.

Hi there! I’m Annie, a 23-year-old animal lover, studying Dental Therapy & Hygiene at King’s College London. Some of my hobbies and interests include origami, anime, film, and mindfulness. I’d love to be your tutor for personal statement writing and/or interview preparations!

After the happy accident of falling into Dental Nursing, I fell in love with the world of dentistry and became ambitious to do a degree in Dental Therapy & Hygiene. Once I completed my qualification to become a Registered Dental Nurse, I applied for university straight away!

Dental Nursing provided me with excellent experience in leadership and teamwork. I trained all new members of staff in both practices I worked for, including three Dental Nurses and two Dental Receptionists. This has given me the opportunity to develop my teaching skills and understand the areas requiring improvement in my teaching abilities.

During the exciting process of applying to university and preparing for interviews, this is the best time to speak with those who have been through the process themselves. I will go above and beyond to give you the best tips and advice possible to ensure your place at your dream university!
