Italian Tutors : 1-1 Italian Preparation

Hi! My name’s Gemma. I’m a 21 year old bilingual student (Italian mother and British father) who studies Chemistry at the University of Bath. I’ve finished my second year and am currently doing my year abroad in Berlin. I’ve been a tutor for over 2 years with another company in Italy where I taught students of different ages as well as privately. I also used to help out during sixth form in Chemistry workshops, where I assisted Year 12 students with their homework or understanding topics. I’m a positive person who aims to make the student as comfortable as possible by building a bond with them and helping them gain confidence alongside teaching them. I got an interview from Oxford so I am familiar with the questions and preparation required for the interview as well as an interview from Imperial College London, where I also got an offer from.

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!
I’m Gabriella Ata Alla, a medical student at Brighton and Sussex Medical School, and I’m here to support students not just academically, but through every step of their journey, especially those aspiring to study medicine.

My path hasn’t been typical. I moved to the UK in Year 11 and had to self-teach the entire GCSE syllabus in under seven months. It was a huge challenge, but one that taught me how to adapt, stay focused, and work under pressure. I passed all my GCSEs, earned a 6–6 in Science, and got into a top sixth form college. There, I continued to push myself, taking part in the Chemistry Olympiad and earning a Bronze certificate.

I consider myself a resilient, determined, and solution-focused person, and that’s also what I bring to my tutoring.

Alongside subject tutoring, I also help aspiring medical students. I’ve personally sat two medical school interviews — one where I struggled, and one where I succeeded. Through both experiences, I’ve learned exactly what interviewers are looking for: clarity, confidence, reflection, and authenticity. I now use that insight to help others prepare effectively. I focus on helping students present themselves genuinely and powerfully, making sure they understand how to stand out as competitive, well-rounded candidates.

I know how stressful this path can be. But I also know how much of a difference the right guidance can make. I don’t just teach the material — I help students build confidence, develop smart strategies, and feel genuinely prepared for the challenges ahead.

If you’re preparing for GCSEs, A-levels, or medical school interviews, I’d love to help you unlock your full potential and move forward with confidence.
