Nursing Interview Tutors : 1-1 Nursing Interview Preparation

Hi, my name is Joanna, and I am currently a General Practice Trainee with a strong passion for teaching, mentoring, and supporting aspiring medical students. I am also a Fellow of the Higher Education Academy (FHEA), reflecting my commitment to high-quality teaching and creating effective, student-centred learning environments.

The road to medicine can be long and challenging, but you don’t have to navigate it alone. Having gone through the journey myself, I aim to pass on the knowledge, strategies, and experience I have gained over the years. My goal is not only to help you succeed in the medical school application process, but also to help you develop the resilience, confidence, and long-term skills that will support you throughout medical school and beyond.

I teach UCAT, helping students develop effective approaches to each section of the exam, improve their timing and accuracy, and build the stamina needed to perform confidently under pressure. Rather than relying solely on shortcuts, I focus on helping students understand how they think, identify areas for improvement, and develop strategies that work for them.

Beyond medicine, I have a passion for languages and take great pride in being able to communicate in several languages. I also teach IELTS and have helped many students achieve scores higher than they initially aspired to.

My experience as an FHEA has further strengthened my approach to education, allowing me to apply evidence-based teaching methods and adapt sessions to different learning styles. I aim to make learning engaging, structured, and personalised, while encouraging students to become confident and independent learners.

I hope you’re ready to embark on this journey together. Come to each session eager to learn, and leave feeling more confident, motivated, and inspired to keep improving 🙂

Hello, My Name is Robyn and I’ve just completed Graduate Entry Medicine at the University of Nottingham and and I employed as a resident doctor. I interviewed at 4 different universities; Nottingham, St Georges, Swansea and Ulster, securing offers from all 4 of them. My First degree was in Genetics (BSc Hons) from the University of York Followed by a graduate diploma in law from BPP University.

Prior to my current Degree, I spent 5 years working in an FTSE 100 corporate environment completing Project management Qualifications and then Joining Deloitte to work as a Management Consultant. I have a wealth of interview experience in a variety of different settings having done both corporate and Academic interviews. I was also a member of the UK army reserves taking on the role of a Combat Medic, this has given me a clinical understanding and knowledge that has benefited me during my medical degree and that I would love to pass on to others.

I have a strong academic background in science having completed A levels in all the Sciences and an AS level in maths and then pursuing a degree in genetics. While completing my degree I competed in a Genetic engineering competition hosted by MIT and received a Bronze and a Gold medal in their respective years. most recently I sat GAMSAT and UCAT. GAMSAT is the graduate entry to medicine test and contains 3 sections, English, Essay writing and Science, the minimum cutoff for entry is 50 in each section and I scored 63, 63, and 68 respectively. The Science section contains Degree level Biology, Chemistry, Physics and maths and requires High-level data interpretation.

I have experience working with children with additional needs such as Autism, ADHD and Dyslexia and would be happy to work with/tutor anyone with additional needs.

Hello, I’m Talhah Bin-Islam—a highly driven biomedical science graduate preparing to begin Graduate Entry Medicine at the University of Nottingham.

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.
