GAMSAT Tutors : 1-1 GAMSAT Preparation

Hello, I’m Talhah Bin-Islam—a highly driven biomedical science graduate preparing to begin Graduate Entry Medicine at the University of Nottingham. I am deeply passionate about education, academic excellence, and mentoring the next generation of achievers. I have extensive tutoring experience across a wide range of subjects, supporting students from 11+, KS2, KS3, GCSE, A-Level, and beyond. I also specialize in university preparation, including medical school applications at both undergraduate and graduate levels.

My approach is not just about delivering knowledge but building strategic thinking, resilience, and long-term success. I believe in creating high-impact results by tailoring learning to each student’s aspirations. With a strong foundation in medicine, education, and personal development, I bring energy, precision, and ambition to every session. I am committed to helping every student unlock their full potential and push beyond what they believe is possible.

Hi! I’m Nandini, a first-year Graduate Entry Medicine student at Swansea University, having completed a BSc in Biomedical Science from the University of Sussex with a 2:1. I applied to medicine through the graduate route, so I’ve been through UCAT, GAMSAT, CASPer, and multiple interviews, and I know how overwhelming the process can feel. I received offers from Swansea, ScotGEM, and Cumbria (Imperial pathway), and I’m passionate about helping others navigate the admissions process confidently and successfully. I also mentored students during my undergraduate degree and supported several with university applications, personal statements, and exam prep. Whether you need help understanding exams tips and tricks or the concepts they entail or preparing for interviews, I aim to provide structured, supportive sessions that are tailored to your goals. I’m here to help you achieve your full potential.

My name is Hector, and I am a third-year medical student at Swansea University, where I secured a place on the highly competitive Graduate Entry Medicine (GEM) programme. I graduated from The University of Sydney with a Bachelor of Science and Bachelor of Advanced Studies (Medical Science), achieving a distinction average. I know first-hand how daunting the journey to medical school can be, from perfecting personal statements to conquering the GAMSAT and excelling in medical interviews.

I have extensive experience teaching and mentoring students, currently working as a Senior Teaching Assistant in Anatomy at Swansea University. In this role, I lead engaging sessions for undergraduates and postgraduates, helping them grasp complex concepts and build confidence. Beyond my university role, I have provided tailored academic support through a private tutoring company, specialising in essay proofreading and personal statement coaching.

As a Swansea University Graduate Entry Medicine interview panellist, I understand what interviewers are looking for, and I am eager to share this insight to help you succeed. I am driven to make the process of tutoring and helping students reach their goals as accessible and stress-free as possible, building their confidence along the way.

I’m a full-time private tutor with an extensive background in maths and data tech. I’ve been tutoring/taught for over twelve years, and worked in the data tech industry for six years. My academic background is from Sussex University. I completed my MMath degree with a 1st class honours in 2014 writing my dissertation on Bochner-Riesz summability and Strichartz estimates. I then completed my PhD in maths in 2019 under the Hirschfeld scholarship passing with minor corrections (2019); my thesis was titled “Topics in Geometric and Harmonic Analysis on Symmetric Spaces and Lie Groups”. I started tutoring as an A-level assistant at school helping GCSE students with maths work in the classroom. I picked it up again as a university undergraduate as a convenient way to fund my studies. I quickly realised that I had a knack for tutoring being able to get the best out of my students and consequently help them achieve their goals. Tutoring has since become my passion. From that point, I’ve had a range of tutoring positions including acting as a classroom assistant in a local school, one-on-one tutoring online and in person, leading university workshops, marking homework, being a university examiner, delivering lectures at universities, and leading technical training in industry. My PhD further enhanced my tutoring. I had regular contact with my research supervisor who had a remarkable ability to explain complex maths concepts in a simplified way unfolding the concepts as if he was telling a story. I integrated this into my tutoring technique. I constantly strive to develop this skill further and pass it onto my students to engender their enthusiasm. I entered the workforce following the completion of my PhD as a data specialist working in tech and applying maths to solve machine learning problems. An example was acting as an intermediary translating academic mathematical models into Python and PySpark code to improve the computation of aggregate functions. I continued teaching responsibilities being responsible for training work colleagues in data engineering skills and advanced machine learning. I’m now a full time tutor after spending six years in data tech. I have expanded my tutoring portfolio into further areas including: computer science, data engineering/science best practices, dissertation advice, maths entrance exams, mechanics, university application assistance, Python/SQL pair programming, statistics, and test preparation.

I am a First Class Honours graduate in BEng Biomedical Engineering from Queen Mary University of London, and I am now pursuing a degree in Medicine. This combination gives me a unique academic edge — bridging the gap between engineering, science, and medicine, and allowing me to bring a logical, structured, and insightful approach to teaching.

I have a strong academic foundation across Sciences, Maths, and English, and I’m passionate about helping students reach their full potential — particularly those aspiring to study Medicine or other STEM courses.

My lessons are always well-prepared, tailored to each student’s needs, and focused on building confidence and excellence. I ensure that students not only master the content but also develop the critical thinking and communication skills essential for medical interviews and university applications.

I’m known for being professional, approachable, and flexible with my hours — making sure every student feels supported, motivated, and inspired to achieve outstanding results.

Hello! My name is Anusha, and I am a Final year Graduate Entry Medical Student at Swansea University. I have also completed a degree in Population Health and Medical Sciences, so I have a good knowledge of public health issues and a solid grounding in Biology.

When I applied the first time, I received interviews for Undergraduate Medicine at Sheffield, Southampton, Bristol and Plymouth, and offers at Sheffield, Southampton and Plymouth. When I applied for Graduate Entry Medicine, I received interviews from Swansea and Nottingham (Grad Entry) and finally chose Swansea as my Medical School!

I have good experience with the UCAT and the GAMSAT, and in the GAMSAT I scored high enough to secure two interviews at highly competitive graduate medical schools, so I have a wealth of tips and tricks for these exams. I have been tutoring for over a year now, and my students have come out with great results.

During my spare time, I like to partake in Dance and Painting, both of which have helped me in maintaining a work life balance.
