About Me
Are you aiming to secure a spot in medical school and need expert guidance to navigate the complex application process? Hi there! I’m Chloe, a second-year medical student at the University of Leeds, and I’m here to help you succeed!
I have successfully navigated two rounds of medical school applications, having taken time out before university to travel within these years. My journey included receiving interview invitations from two Cambridge colleges and Edinburgh, as well as offers from Manchester, Liverpool, and Leeds. This first-hand experience has given me a deep understanding of what top medical schools are looking for in applicants. I passed my first year with honours in both sets of exams, and have received top marks in both the research paper and essay I have completed so far this year. I take part in multiple societies here, such as Cardiology, Surgery, Medical Ethics, and Surf society.
I have long known that Medicine was my career of choice, and so applied myself throughout my work at school, receiving A*A*A*A in Chemistry, Biology, Maths and Further Maths, as well as 9999999988A^ in English Language and Literature, Maths, Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Spanish, Economics, German, Music and Further Maths respectively.
My teaching style
Offering a judgement-free space is my priority – it’s important to get things wrong sometimes! I prefer to take a person-centred approach, addressing particular topics or concepts that are of the most concern and giving time to discuss these and resources to go away and practice. However, for longer teaching blocks, I acknowledge the need to create a more structured plan towards success, which we can discuss together during our first session to determine exactly what you would like to achieve from teaching.
Studying Medicine teaches you new and more efficient ways to learn and study than school is able to, and I’d be excited to show you how I’ve made studying more engaging and fun since leaving school.
My past experience
I’ve been in your shoes and succeeded – I know what it takes to impress admissions committees!
As a volunteer teacher at medical school for examination sessions, I’ve helped students grasp complex clinical concepts and achieve their goals. My organisational skills, patient manner, and willingness to go the extra mile ensure that you’ll receive tailored support every step of the way.
Navigating the medical school application process can be overwhelming. I offer practical advice on managing stress and preventing burnout, drawing from my own experiences and strategies that have helped me stay balanced and focused. I’m here to ensure that you not only succeed but also maintain your well-being throughout the journey.
Choosing me as your tutor means partnering with someone who understands the medical school application process inside out and is dedicated to helping you succeed. Let’s work together to turn your medical school aspirations into reality!
My Proudest Achievements
My proudest achievement is earning an Investec Scholarship, for which I wrote a piece on the medical school application experience. I’m the first medic in my family, and it made my acceptance letters feel even more rewarding!
