7About Me
I am 3rd year ScotGEM postgraduate medical student in medical course that is affiliated between St Andrews and Dundee medical school. My undergraduate degree is in Biomedical science in NUIG where I majored in pharmacology. After university, I worked as a Sales Representative for a pharmaceutical company in Ireland. However, my heart was always set on studying medicine. To fulfil my dreams, I decided to apply to study medicine. Studying medicine is such a unique experience to studying any other degree. It is so rewarding to help patients and work alongside other inspiring medics. It is honestly worth the hard-work and dedication required to get into medical school. Outside of medicine I am a massive sports fanatic and do a range of sports including football, running, and cycling. This has really enabled me to apply myself better to studying medicine. Received a 1.1 grade in 4th year medical school finals.
My teaching style
I have a flexible teaching style and can adapt accordingly to the needs of the student. I am happy to help simplify complex and challenging topics or adhere to a specific study timetable. I help simplify topics by the use of mind maps and illustrations.
My past experience
I have plenty of teaching experience as I have tutored for Leaving Certificate and A-level students.
