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, I’m LucyAnne! I’m 23 years old and I live in London. I work as an actor and freelance singer, and also part-time as a teaching assistant and a tutor.

I studied History, English, Music and Biology at A Level (3 A*s, 1A) and, while at school, also gained two diplomas in French Horn (LRSM and DipABRSM) alongside Grade 8 Singing (ABRSM) and Verse & Prose (LAMDA), Grade 7 Piano (ABRSM) and Acting (LAMDA) and Grade 5 Music Theory (ABRSM). I then undertook a BA in History and English at Oxford, during which time I was awarded two scholarships for academic achievement. Since graduating in 2021, I have also gained an Acting Diploma from the London School of Dramatic Art.

I absolutely loved my time at uni, and while at school I was lucky enough to have some amazing teachers that showed me how fun learning can be. I would love to be able to inspire others like I was inspired.

My hobbies include cooking, reading and going on walks around my local area looking for cats to stroke!

Hi, I’m James! I recently graduated from Cambridge University with 1st Class Honours in Music, where my degree covered topics including music history, analysis, composition and performance. While at Cambridge, I also completed the DELE C1 accreditation (‘effective operational fluency’) in Spanish. I offer engaging lessons in both Music and Spanish at all levels (including GCSE and A-Level, and equivalents), at a pace matched to the student.

MUSIC: The skills I have learned in my degree are the same skills required for success in GCSE and A-Level Music (analysing musical works; explaining broad historical trends in music; aural skills), and in Music Theory grades. I sat these exams not so long ago myself, and would love to help you or your child excel in them!

SPANISH: I’ve become fluent in Spanish through examinations and practice – I know what is needed for success in these exams, and I know what it’s like learning a language ‘by the book’! Each lesson therefore strikes a balance of new content, and engaging, interactive exercises. I fully explain all the concepts I teach – despite what some people think, teaching by osmosis doesn’t work!

Outside of my degree, I lead an active musical life, from choirs to rock bands, as well as writing music – including a winning entry in the 3rd International Competition of Composers.

    I’m Charlotte, a Masters student at the University of Cambridge (Physical Natural Sciences), and I would love to help you achieve your academic potential! With a proven track record of academic excellence at GCSE, and A level (4 A*) I have maintained a wide scope of discipline whilst at university. Before finding a passion for History and Philosophy of Science this year, I have previously taken university modules in Mathematics, Physics, Materials Science and Earth Sciences, making full use of the diversity the Cambridge Natural Sciences course provides. With over 5 years tutoring experience in the sciences and maths, I have developed an enthusiastic and positive approach to help you achieve your potential. I’m a strong believer in practice exam questions as the key to success, so not only will I deal with the challenging concepts of the syllabus with clarity but teach you how to best apply this knowledge to an exam situation. I am unique in that as a Cambridge Organ Scholar I was able to apply to both Oxford and Cambridge, and thus have gone through the preparations for entrance exams and interviews for both institutions, before receiving an unconditional offer from Cambridge. This means I’m highly equipped to tutor both the NSAA and the PAT, as well as skilled at helping you to master the environment of the Oxbridge interview. I’m confident, concise, and committed to helping you achieve your fullest potential in your chosen academic avenue.

I have positioned the UPS’s sustainability policy at major international events, including the COP26 United National Climate Change Negotiations, Chatham House, Cambridge University, and the House of Lords. I have been interviewed by BBC journalists in this role. I hold a certificate on Business Sustainability from the University of Cambridge, focusing on teaching sustainability.
