About Me

Hi there, my name is Agbo Pethiyagoda! I am a first year medical student at Cardiff University. I’d love to meet you and become your tutor! I know how daunting the application process for “Medical School” can be and since I went through the whole process very recently, I would be able to share with you the tips and tricks that I used to my advantage during my interviews.

I was the Deputy Head Prefect of my high school, and I am a public speaker.
In addition, I am also the “Founding President” of the Social Services Club at my high school. I’ve organised many volunteering projects, and all of these experiences made me fall in love with the satisfaction I got from helping people. The field of medical research also interests me, and all these have led me to pursue a career in medicine.

I was also a member of the Badminton Team at school. So I had to make sure that I took great care in balancing my academics with my extra curricular activities. With what I’ve been able to achieve so far, I believe that I am good at time management too. These are qualities that we all must have at university, and I’d love to share any tips and experiences that I have had as a university student.

My teaching style

I understand that each student is different and I am more than happy to alter my pace and teaching style to anyone’s requirement. I believe in approaching students in a very cheerful way, and together with the student, I could come up with constructive ways to get the best out of them.
To my students – “You can always approach me with any questions you have. Let’s make sure that we’ve got the best out of you, before you sit that exam or that interview. Good Luck!”

My past experience

I’ve tutored students before for 2 years, and I am very humbled and glad that I’ve been able to help them achieve their targets.

My Proudest Achievements

I am a public speaker, and I have secured the titles “Best Speaker”, “Best Evaluator”, “Best Prepared Speaker” and “Best Impromptu Speaker” from 2017 to 2020 at various national competitions.
Amidst all of these I’ve managed to be among the top achievers in my country for my GCSEs and A-Levels.
