Medicine Tutors : 1-1 Medicine Preparation

Hi. My name is Reza I am currently a second-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, my name is Arun and I am currently a 4th year medical student at Sheffield University intercalating in a clinical research project. I completed my A-levels, UCAT, and medical interviews in 2020. I had 4 interviews and received offers from all four. I am a well-experienced tutor having completed over 1500 hours of tutoring with Medic Mind in a range of topics, from GCSEs and A-Levels to UCAT and interviews as well as university consultations

I was one of the few students to undertake the A-level exams in November 2020 after my exams were cancelled due to Coronavirus. I am dyslexic so I have weird and wonderful ways to remember critical information and I hope I can support prospective doctors (dyslexic or non) to achieve their dream of becoming a medical professional.

I was not labelled as your typical medical student by my school. I continued to persevere until I reached the goal that I set for myself, with the help of my family.

I hope we can work well together and achieve what you want, just like I did. 🙂

Hi my name is Anna and I am a junior doctor and Cardiff graduate. Whether you’re reading this profile in search for GCSE tuition or as part of a journey in applying to medicine, I’d love to help.

I have a real passion for teaching and have nine years experience tutoring GCSE students. For me, GCSE is all about having a strong understanding of the syllabus, focusing particularly on areas you feel least confident with and learning how to apply your knowledge into answers that fit the exam mark schemes. Consequently, my GCSE lessons focus particularly on past paper questions so that when it comes to exam day, you feel confident in your answers and include all key points.

I love getting involved with all aspects of medicine applications including tutoring for interviews, personal statement advice and working at the open days at Cardiff. I have also sat on the MMI interview panel at Cardiff so I know what stands out! It seems like yesterday I was applying to medical school and I know what an incredibly tough and anxious time it can be. It’s often a game of jumping through hoops so I want to share my experiences, help with applications and hopefully help you to achieve that deserved place at medical school.

Hello Tutees! I’m Shaun, a 5th year medical student at Magdalene College, the University of Cambridge and I’m have an interest in surgery as well as neuroscience and molecular biology. I also intercalated in psychology in my 3rd year. I’m a fun, friendly and approachable tutor who’s really excited to help you all reach you’re, very achievable, goals!
I come from a town in Yorkshire where I went to an underperforming state comprehensive, no-one from my school had ever even applied for anywhere like Cambridge for medicine, me being here today is a testament to the additional time and effort I had to put in to my university application and A-levels. All that stress and work is handy though, I know an awful lot about university applications for medicine, to Cambridge and Oxford, as well as for general applications across the board. I achieved offers from everywhere I interviewed at (I withdrew from one of my options) so I can really be a good help for interview skills. I also achieved some of my schools best ever A-levels and even nabbed some golds in subject olympiads.
What can I do for you?

Hi, my name is Joanna a current Foundation Year 2 doctor, eager to connect with you to create a learning environment that best fits your learning style and helps you achieve your dreams.

The road to medicine can be long, however, I aim to pass down the wealth of knowledge that I have gained over the years to ensure that your journey will be one where you enjoy the application process and cultivate long-term skills to help you as you enter medicine. Building up endurance and stamina for this journey can only be done with guidance and advice.

Know that you do not have to go through this process alone and that we are here for you to support every need you have during this path.

Apart from medicine, I love languages and often take pride in the number of languages I can communicate. I enjoy teaching IELTS and have helped many students get through this exam with higher scores than they aspired for.

I hope you are ready to embark on this journey together. Be ready to come to each session eager to learn and walk out of the session inspired to learn more.

I am a final year medical student at Flinders University who is about to graduate soon. In addition, to studying medicine at Flinders I have also participated in extracurriculars such as university sports and medrevue, as stage manager. Medrevue which is a musical that is organized by medical students every year.

I moved to Australia 10 years ago and did not have much experience with their tertiary education system. However, my experiences with volunteering and private tutoring helped me build a network which later helped me gain useful advice when trying to seek admission into an undergraduate university course. I believe I would be of use to anyone who needs some mentoring while trying to navigate the tertiary education system in Australia.

The networks I was able to establish during the course of my undergraduate degree helped me a lot when trying to gain admission into medicine in Australia. I studied Bachelors of Biomedicine at University of Melbourne graduating with a First class Honors Average and a GPA of 6.8out of a maximum of 7. I was a subjective representative as well. Following my undergraduate degree a spent an year of honors research with the aged care group at the Royal Melbourne Hospital. As a result of my research I was able to publish articles in reputable journals.

I am currently studying medicine at Flinders where some members of the faculty have let me know that I have been scoring in the top 10 % of students. I am a anatomy/dissection tutor for junior medical students as well

Hi, my name is Malaika, I am a 4th year medical student at the University of Plymouth. I studied a foundation year in medicine which required a lot of planning ahead and perseverance, but it gave me key insights on the unconventional path to medicine and how to apply with qualifications other than A Levels. I have worked hard to get where I am today from struggling in year 9 to thriving at medical school, I know how much hard work it takes to get here. I have been through this process and have struggled, and I know the amount of determination it takes to achieve those dreams, but I am here to help you. I am easy to talk to and willing to help at any given moment. I had to go through my studies and applying to medical school alone so I know how hard the process is, during this time I have developed many tips that I would have greatly appreciated when I was in those situations. I am always here to help, so if you have any questions, please feel free to ask!

Hi there, I’m Louis and I’m currently in my third year studying medicine at Leicester. My journey into medicine was not simple and I’ve come to realise that’s often the case for many of us.

Education holds immense value, particularly in the medical field. However I advocate for a holistic approach, one that prioritises excelling academically while also nurturing a well-rounded life. It’s crucial to be the best version of ourselves to effectively aid others in the long run.

Throughout my academic journey, I’ve honed qualities like discipline, efficiency, and simplicity. These traits, finely sharpened in the rigours of medical school, have contributed significantly to my personal growth. I owe this growth to medical school and I want others to feel what I feel.

My aspiration extends beyond personal development. I’m keen on guiding aspiring medical students, sharing insights to help them avoid the pitfalls and challenges I encountered. I believe aiding others in their journey to medical school not only fosters their growth as professionals but also nurtures their personal evolution. It’s about shaping not just future medics, but well-rounded individuals who can make a meaningful difference.

I am a 2nd year medical student who is extremely passionate and dedicated towards my role as a tutor. Over the many years, I have been able to acquire a surplus of skills that I am eager to share to my students. I have achieved 2A*s and 2As at ALevel, 5 A**s, 4A*s and 2As at GCSE. I can offer SATS, 11+, GCSE and A level tuition in a range of subjects such as Sciences, Maths and English. Alongside this, I also offer BMAT and UCAT tuition (medical school entrance exams).
As someone who is a high achiever I have a very good understanding of what is required to obtain effective revision and I am confident that I will pass these skills on to my students.
In terms of my own experience, I have tutored for two years at my local tuition centre as well as my school. I have witnessed firsthand the profound impact that I have had on these students hence I would like this rewarding outcome to continue.
