About Me
I am a fourth-year Medical Student at the University of Cambridge. In my first three years at Cambridge, I earned an intercalated BA in Engineering and Medical Sciences. I also achieved 4 A*s at A Level and 11 9s at GCSE. I have a passion not only for Science and understanding the fundamental processes behind life, but I also enjoy helping students fulfil their full potential by achieving highly in exams and gaining places at top universities.
I have extensive experience in tutoring Maths and Science subjects, helping students prepare for Medicine interviews, and helping students to write their personal statements. I am the Co-President of my University’s kickboxing team, amongst other extra-curriculars, and I always encourage my students to pursue their hobbies as well as working hard academically.
My teaching style
I prepare Medicine MMI/panel or Oxbridge Medicine interview questions in advance to ask students and assess their performance. I give feedback that is University-specific and constructive. I also help students to write personal statements based on core GMC values and what universities look for in medical applications. For tutoring of Maths and Science, I focus on practice questions to identify key areas the student must work on and to prepare them for sitting specific exams.
My Proudest Achievements
I hold a BA in Engineering and Medical Sciences from the University of Cambridge, as well as 4 A*s at A Level (in Maths, Physics, Chemistry and Biology), and 11 9s at GCSE. I also hold a Grade 8 in Oboe and Piano. I have had several summer jobs including in 2024 in which I was a Data Analyst for a Biotechnology start-up called Dynamic Metrics, and in 2025 where I worked with the Foundation for Young People’s Mental Health. Additionally, I am the co-president of Cambridge University Kickboxing Society and I won the National University Kickboxing Championships in 2024.
