2About Me
I’m a dedicated and patient tutor with over three years of experience, specializing in ISAT and medical interview preparation. An alumna of top schools in Singapore, I am now studying Medicine in UNSW Sydney. Having scored in the 88th percentile for ISAT and received medical school offers, I understand the challenges of the admissions process and how to approach it strategically.
My lessons are structured yet adaptable, tailored to each student’s strengths, weaknesses, and learning style. For ISAT, I focus on critical thinking, problem-solving techniques, and time management strategies to help students tackle the test with confidence. For medical interviews, I provide personalized coaching, mock interviews, and proven frameworks to help students communicate effectively and stand out.
I offer online lessons for flexibility, ensuring that students receive high-quality guidance wherever they are.

My teaching approach is strategic, engaging, and results-driven, designed to build critical thinking and problem-solving skills essential for ISAT and medical interviews.

ISAT: Teaching efficient problem-solving techniques, time management, and logical reasoning skills
Medical Interviews: Coaching students to structure responses and communicate confidently
Breaking down complex topics into clear, step-by-step explanations
