Personal Statement Teachers : 1-1 Personal Statement Preparation

My name is Elina Pampapathi and I am a Third Year Medical Student at Queen Mary University of London. I am a Graduate Entry Medic with a background in Paramedic Science for which I received a First. I received 4/4 offers for my application; two Graduate Entry Course offers, and two Direct Entry course offers – so I can help either prospective Graduates or Direct Entry students. Additionally, I received within the top 5% globally for my UCAT and have many great hints and tips to help maximise your score. I have just finished my 1st year of Medicine and received a merit for my exam results, which is within the top 20% of my cohort – I had to change my study techniques a lot when I came into medicine and can provide some useful perspective to preparing for a medical degree. I would like to help prospective students make the application process as stress free as possible because I do believe that it can be!

Hello, I’m Talhah Bin-Islam—a highly driven biomedical science graduate preparing to begin Graduate Entry Medicine at the University of Nottingham. I am deeply passionate about education, academic excellence, and mentoring the next generation of achievers. 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.

I’m a passionate tutor with experience in a wide range of subjects. I am outgoing and enjoy helping students develop confidence and clarity in their learning.

I tailor my lessons to each student’s level, pace, and goals, making sure they not only understand the material but also enjoy the process. Whether you’re preparing for exams, building foundational skills, or simply want to improve, I’m here to support and guide you. Rather than simply providing answers, I guide students to discover them through carefully chosen examples, thought experiments, and counterexamples. I pay close attention to each student’s strengths and areas for improvement, adapting my approach accordingly—whether that means breaking down complex arguments into manageable parts or pushing advanced students to explore beyond the syllabus. I also stress the importance of revision, feedback, and intellectual humility. Mistakes are treated as learning opportunities, and I aim to foster confidence through mastery rather than shortcuts. Ultimately, my goal is to cultivate both independent thinking and disciplined analysis, so that students leave not just knowing more, but reasoning better.

Feel free to reach out—I look forward to learning together!

Hello! My name is Henry and I am an experienced tutor studying Philosophy and Theology at the University of Oxford, having achieved 3 A*s at A-Level, an A* EPQ and 11 9s at GCSE. I also received a Distinction in my first-year exams at university.

I love to work with students of all ages and levels of study. I bring a friendly and relaxed approach to tutoring, and am flexible and communicative in organising sessions. I have worked with tutees from 7 years old to Oxbridge applicants, as well as having previously worked multiple summers as a House Parent at an international summer school and as an Outdoor Activity Instructor.

I can tutor students for university admissions including Oxbridge; EPQ having achieved A*; Maths up to GCSE, having achieved an A* at A-Level and 9s in Maths and Further Maths at GCSE; Philosophy/Religious Studies/Ethics/Theology at A-Level, as this is my degree subject; Government and Politics up to A-Level, having achieved A* at A-Level; English up to GCSE having achieved 9s in English Literature and English Language at GCSE.

I’m a doctor and scientist, a graduate of an Ivy League medical school, who have always been passionate about teaching and helping students achieve their maximum potential. My MD alongside my bachelors degrees allowed me to acquire a strong background in a variety of subjects. Since I was a student, I discovered I have a great ability to teach. Colleagues were often approaching me for help given my ability to simplify and deliver knowledge in the most effective manner.

I have a decade of teaching experience for science subjects and English up to very advanced university level. My students have always achieved great grades and realised their goals. That’s what I always aspire to see happen and take pride in.

Please, feel out to reach out to me to discuss your goals and what you’re looking for and how I could help you make them come true. What are you waiting for? Let’s embark on this incredible journey together!
