TOK Tutors : 1-1 TOK Lessons

Hi! My name is Himaja, and I am a first-year Medical Student at UNSW. As a recent IB graduate, I understand firsthand both the challenges and rewards that come with navigating a demanding academic program. I have also just been through the whole Medicine University Applications, so I know how overwhelming it can feel, but I also know that with the right support, every student can build confidence and achieve their goals.

One of the biggest contributors to my own success was having an incredible tutor during my IB journey. She not only helped me strengthen my understanding of difficult concepts but also gave me the confidence to believe in my abilities. Because of the positive impact she had on me, I am passionate about providing that same support and encouragement to my own students.

Above all, I believe that learning should be engaging and enjoyable. My goal is not only to help students improve their grades but also to foster curiosity, confidence, and a genuine appreciation for the learning process. I strive to create a supportive and positive environment where students feel comfortable asking questions, making mistakes, and growing academically.

I am a pretty fun person who likes to go on adventures and trying new things. During my free time, I like to read books, paint, watch movies, watch cricket, or cooking/baking. I look forward to helping students reach their full potential and achieve success in their studies

I am a recent first class biomedicine graduate from the University of East Anglia, having attained 85% on my dissertation and only first class marks throughout my degree.

I have earned a place to commence Graduate Entry Medicine (GEM) at the University of East Anglia in September 2025 (one of 30 individuals offered a place to study). Consequently, the medicine application process is at the forefront of my mind, and I look forward to sharing my knowledge and wisdom with prospective applicants!

I completed the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme in 2022, having studied Biology, Chemistry and English at Higher Level. At age 18, I moved to the UK to pursue a Bachelors in Biomedicine at the University of East Anglia.

Now, at age 21, I look forward to commencing Graduate Entry Medicine and pursuing my career aspirations.

My pass-times include skiing, mountaineering and playing piano!

Hi! My name is Edie and I am looking forward to meeting you. I, on a personal level, understand the demands and pressures of school, and so I hope to make each tutee’s scholastic life easier by providing study support.
I am currently an undergraduate studying Psychology at Durham University, pursuing a career as an educational psychologist. Hence, I am always ready and happy to help others, especially with academics. I have prior experience helping my brother with his studies in IB and GCSE, alongside volunteering to tutor younger students (age 12-15) in Maths and Biology during my high school years. I have also lived in Asia, Europe and the UK, and hence have a broader understanding of the different cultural pressures associated with education.
In 2024, I graduated from the IB diploma programme in the top 10% of my cohort, so I am no stranger to a good work ethic and using effective study strategies to get top marks. I am also familiar with the high-pressure environment of examinations, and so am able to give advice on how to maintain a work-life balance based on experience if requested. My favourite subjects were Psychology, Biology and Literature, but I mostly miss the supportive educational environment — fostered by my peers and teachers — that enabled me to thrive in my adolescent years. I now strive to create the same warm and informative environment with my future tutees, where questions are not just welcomed but encouraged.
