About Me

Hello everyone!

My name is Davina, and I’m a fifth-year medical student at the University of Leeds.

I have been in the position many of you are currently in, preparing for medical school interviews and writing personal statements. I remember being daunted at the start of the whole experience as a young student. Having been through this journey, I look forward to being able to help you fulfill your academic goals and give you the best shot at getting to where you want to be.

I have been teaching for medicine interviews, UCAT and BMAT for over 2 years and have guided dozens of students through their interview experience.

I have had experience teaching GCSE and A-level biology, chemistry, and psychology. I have also given interview advice to prospective medical students, ran ethical debate classes, and mock interviews.

I will always tailor my teaching to each student, and make myself available to answer and explain things at all hours- in and out of lessons. My teaching style is very adaptable and I can provide a more self-directed approach or a more hands-on approach depending on the student’s needs.

Don’t hesitate to ask me any questions!

My teaching style

My teaching style is adapted to the needs of each student. I like to consider what each person’s goals are for each lesson, and make changes as we go through each tutorial. I prefer to encourage a self directed approach between sessions so that students can gain the most out of each session and feel more confident in the skills they have learned. I am always available to answer any questions if anyone is struggling, and will happily go over specific topics or questions.

My past experience

I have been tutoring on medic mind for over a year now and am proud to have helped so many students with interview and UCAT preparation. I can’t wait to help more people with their journey to medicine.
