10About Me
Hi, my name is Leo and I am a first year medical student at Glasgow university. After going through the rigorous process of applications to medicine last year, I understand how difficult and stressful it is to search for helpful advice for interviews and to have enough practice in the interview setting to feel confident in answering the sometimes unpredictable questions. This led me into wanting to do tutoring to support others as I would have really appreciated someone last year helping me through these steps. I had applied to Glasgow, Dundee, Aberdeen and St Andrews, so I have a good idea of each of their curriculums and generally what kind of students they look for in interviews. I am very passionate about medicine and biomedical technologies, so I look forward to meeting and working with future medics!
My teaching style
I teach with a facilitated learning or problem based learning approach(PBL). This involves me asking questions and working through solutions together with students in order to involve them more in the learning process which allows them to understand and better memorise the content. It also improves their ability to explain their thought process which is essential in many interview questions.
My past experience
In the past, I have tutored maths and biology at school, as well as helped out fellow classmates with interview practice and personal statements.
My Proudest Achievements
My proudest achievement is probably presenting my project on 3D printed model organs in front of my school and explaining it’s uses and future impacts of technology in medicine in the future.
