About Me
Hi! I am a second year medic at Lancaster Medical School. I am a bubbly, hard-working and friendly individual and will do the best I can in tutoring you. Here’s a little something that says why: throughout high-school I made sure to take up every opportunity to strengthen my skills as I could and there were many weeks where I would be volunteering 10 hours a week at 3 different placements; this wasn’t only placements in hospitals but also at language schools. This helped ensure my skills were more broader than those required for medical school.
I wasn’t always certain what my career path would look like, but the more time I spend at medical school the more sure I am on what I want to be, and most importantly who. I was given the opportunity to not just pursue a deeply loved passion of mine, but also medicine along side it! Yes, that’s right, this degree has helped me flourish as more than just a medical student, but also as a poet and a writer. It has encouraged me to believe that I can do much more than medicine and that I can be my own person within my career of choice. This is what I wish to impart in each and every one of you.
My teaching style
I prefer to teach in a way the student learns best. For example, I am a visual learner, therefore diagrams, images and colours stimulate my learning more than lectures. I do like to use a variety of resources when teaching and will not hesitate to break things down into analogies when need be.
My past experience
Volunteered teaching english to foreign students – did about 50 hours. Volunteered teaching Gujarati to students – did about 30 hours. Have a younger sibling who I teach and support with their school work and tutoring
My Proudest Achievements
I went to Gujarati school for 10 years – I came 1st every year. In year 9 I organised and looked over all managerial duties for a charity bake sale.
