Optometry Tutors : 1-1 Optometry Preparation

Hi! My names Reah and I am a 2nd year medical student at queens university Belfast. I’m originally from London and went to medical school straight after sixth form. I have been through the medical school application process and understand it can be tough at times. I’m happy to help with any queries or worries you may have, whether that’s academically in regards to A-level biology and chemistry, medical interviews or personal statements, or whether you just need advice about the whole thing as I understand it can be stressful. I achieved an A* in biology and an A in chemistry and received 2 interviews when applying for medical school. I enjoy teaching and meeting and talking to current or prospective medical students and would describe myself as quite friendly and understanding. I look forward to meeting you and getting to work with you!

Award-winning medical student with a BSc in medical physiology. Tutor with 3+ years of experience teaching alevel biology, medical school admission test (scored in top 10%), personal statement writing, interview preparation and scholarship application preparation. Skilled at conveying complex knowledge in a simple and concise way, especially those with a neurodivergent condition. I am currently doing a two research projects pending publications. Looking to tutor a wide range of students to help them achieve exceptional exam results.

I created a social media presences where I share information on social mobility & medicine. I have also been on the BBC three times for my support for students receiving support during civil rights movements.

I have also passed and was selected for an opportunity to complete a semester in New York City at NYU for a research project.

Hi, I’m Imaan. I’m a third year medical student at the University of Plymouth, I know the interview process inside out and I know that it takes A LOT of determination. I have independently achieved all my medical school offers and thats why I know that although it seems impossible, there’s always a way to achieve your dreams and I’m here to help you find it! I have lots of experience coaching students and am easy to talk to. I have had to deal with the daunting experience of applying to medical school, independently, including; taking the UCAT exam twice! This has taught me everything there is to know about the test and I have developed many tips and tricks. I am also a foundation student and this pathway requires a lot of thought and planning, I’d be happy to answer any questions regarding any of the unconventional pathways to medicine. My motto is always being there to help, so if you have any questions, feel free to ask them!

I am an optometry student who has a passion for creating effective and innovative ways to study and successfully pass/ excel in any academic test. I have been tutored myself since the age of 13 and understand how every student is different, the biggest challenge a tutor can face is finding the best teaching style which work for each student. For myself i understand and learn new information by drawing diagrams and annotating pictures. I drew hundreds of mechanisms for my organic chemistry A level!

I understand some students will learn by reading and writing but i will make sure my lessons are engaging and holds my students attention. As a student who asks thousands of questions, i will encourage my students to ask away! I have also sat on interview panels in past jobs i have worked at, i have lots of interview experience. I currently work as an optical assistant at 2 independent opticians local to myself.

If you have any questions about my experience, teaching style or anything at all, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Hi!

My name is Alexander. I am a second year Graduate Entry Medical Student at Swansea University, and prior to this opportunity I was living in Adelaide, South Australia as a qualified Optometrist.

I have acquired considerable experience in the Medical School Interview process for multiple Universities across the UK and Australia (2020-2023). As such, I am uniquely positioned to provide my knowledge of structure and content applicable to both panel and multiple-mini interviews (MMI) in both regions.
I have developed an extensive pool of interview questions covering an array of relevant topics, many of which with transferrable methods that may compliment discussion or act as a simulated practical experience from which detailed feedback can be provided.

While the interview is an unfamiliar environment, I can provide skills in adaptability and communication so that you can represent yourself and your experiences effectively. I can assist in where to seek out further guidance outside of tuition, such as useful interview resources widely available, or how to learn about individual university course structure. These factors all act to develop a sustainable method of preparing for interview.

I understand the importance of expressing one’s experience in written form as part of the medical application. Particularly relevant to Australian portfolio-based applications and the UK Personal Statement, I can impart my knowledge on structure, discussion on expression and in drafting.

I recognise how important it is to collaborate between current student and applicant. This should be encouraged, and it is a sustainable method of progressing through this demanding yet rewarding journey that we have both experienced.

Contact me if you are interested in working together! I look forward to meeting you!
