About Me

Getting into medical school is a mentally exhausting and gruelling process, students every year make many consequential yet very much avoidable mistakes which greatly hinder their application and prevent themselves from reaching the potential that they have, which is why it is so important to have someone that has been through it and done it to guide each student along the way and provide guidance and support. The application is very demanding and can be very emotionally draining as well as physically. Getting tutoring can help you feel less alone in the application process. With no assistance at all you might feel like you have nowhere to turn to for advice at times and diminish your overall confidence going into the process.

As an international student, I had to compete with highly-capable, like-minded individuals across the globe for a small fraction of spots in each cohort (roughly 10-15 per uni) in a much larger pool of applicants. I have achieved all 3 offers from the universities I was offered interviews in (with one of the unis giving me an offer much earlier on in the application cycle as they were impressed by my interview skills). In order to do so, it is fundamental that your application needs to stand out from the rest and I am here to help with every scenario you might encounter throughout the process. Whether you need help with personal statements, interview preparation, general advice on the whole application I am one message away!

My teaching style

I like to tailor my teaching as well as the advice I give to each student as applying to medicine is not a ‘one size fits all’ system. Each university looks for different things in different applicants, each student has weaknesses as well as strengths in their application. I have spent hours and hours speaking to teachers, professors and medics from different universities across the UK and have accumulated a lot of in-depth knowledge about each university that you might not find from a google search which could end up being critical to each application. I also like to be accessible to my students and would try my best to answer any questions each student might have outside of lesson time.

My Proudest Achievements

I have been passionate about doing medicine at a very young age and my family have known it all along, being able to ultimately achieve an offer as well as the grades i need to get into medical school and pursue my dream career was definitely one of my if not my proudest achievements as I knew how many people I was up against as well as how hard I had to work to get there. Which is why I will try my best to help all my students the best I can as I know how much it truly means to be able to pursue what your interests.
