Optometry Tutors : 1-1 Optometry Preparation

2nd Year optometry student at The University of Manchester. I hope to help aspiring optometry students go to the university of their choice. I am more than happy to help with Personal Statements, and interview practice. With 5/5 offers in optometry I believe I am well equipped to help you!

Having taught before in various different scenarios, I know the best way to learn is by doing! Practicing interviews, and reviewing personal statements will tremendously help with your confidence and also help you gain skills you will take across your entire life as an optometrist!

I will also be able to help prepare for university and to jumpstart your career. I would like to share some tips with gainig work experience, and how this will help you with CLIP placements. Getting started early will put you ahead of the competition!

Hi, I am Kelisa, a second-year Optometry student at Aston University, with a strong academic and practical background in the field. I achieved a First-Class grade in my first year of university and was accepted into all the optometry schools I applied to, so I know firsthand what it takes to make a great impression during the application and interview process. Alongside my studies, I’ve been working in an optician’s practice for over two years, gaining valuable hands-on experience and a deeper understanding of the profession.

In my tutoring sessions, I focus on creating a structured yet flexible learning environment that caters to each student’s unique needs.

I begin by assessing each student’s current understanding and identifying their strengths and areas for improvement. Based on this, I develop a personalised learning plan that outlines our goals and the steps needed to achieve them. Each session is designed to build on the previous one, ensuring a steady progression of knowledge and skills.

I like to start each session with a quick review of the previous material to reinforce learning and address any lingering questions. Then, we move on to new topics, using a variety of teaching methods to keep things engaging. This might include interactive discussions, problem-solving exercises, and real-world examples that make the material relatable. I also provide practice problems and mini-quizzes to reinforce concepts and ensure retention.

I track progress through regular assessments, both formal and informal. These can include quizzes, homework assignments, and discussions. I also seek feedback from students to understand how they feel about their progress and adjust my teaching methods accordingly. Regular check-ins and progress reports help keep us on track and make any necessary adjustments to our learning plan.

By creating a supportive and engaging atmosphere, I aim to help students not only achieve their academic goals but also develop a lifelong appreciation for learning.

Hi! I’m Malak, a 2nd year medical student with a passion for helping others navigate the same journey that brought me here. I’ve successfully supported applicants with their personal statements and interviews. As the founder and former President of my school’s Medical & Dental Society, I led UCAT workshops, mock interviews, and statement clinics that helped so many students gain offers. I know firsthand how challenging the application process can feel, especially when you’re trying to balance your schoolwork, perfect your personal statement, and prepare for intense interviews. That’s why I aim to make it all feel more manageable and a lot less overwhelming.

My own experience navigating the UCAS process has given me unique insight into what selectors look for and how to stand out in a crowded field. I received offers from Leeds, Bristol, Keele, and Brighton & Sussex. Before that, I earned 11 GCSEs, took on an A-Level at the same time, completing 4 A-Levels overall. I’ve taken part and won awards in the Cambridge Chemistry Challenge and the British Biology Olympiad while training to aid the visually impaired at the Royal Liverpool University Hospital. I’ve since gone on to tutor students studying GCSE science and maths and those applying for Medicine, Dentistry, Optometry and Veterinary Medicine – particularly with personal statements and interviews.

Alongside my studies, I’ve been involved in research projects exploring bacteriophages and mosquito disease prevention, and I’m always excited to bring that scientific curiosity into my sessions. Outside of medicine, I’m a big fan of hiking, reading, and music.

I aim to make every session engaging, supportive, and efficient. Whether you’re crafting your personal statement, preparing for interview questions, or reviewing exam content, I’ll work with you to make sure you feel confident, prepared, and ready to succeed.

Hi 👋 I’m Juwaria!

I’m currently pursuing a Master of Science in Optometry at the University of Plymouth, where I’m passionate about developing my skills and knowledge to provide excellent patient care. I love working in the optometry field and continuously learning how to improve patient engagement and clinical practice.

In my free time, I enjoy videography, editing and learning about the latest innovations in technology📱

I have worked in multiple practices and have a wealth of experience on how to get into optometry, and how to maximise your chances of getting the pre-reg/CliP position you want too. Additionally, I have resources from multiple universities and books to help maximise your learning and potential. I also received 5/5 offers on UCAS, I know the interview process very well and can help you get into university, including if you did not meet the entry requirements.
