30About Me
Hi, my name is Sanjana! I am a Medical student at Bristol and I love to teach! I’d love to make any preparations towards exams even the slightest bit easier. I’d love to share all the little tips and tricks I have learnt along the way to ace my exams. My strengths are Biology and Chemistry but I loved English at GCSE – however I am open to tutoring anything I have past expertise in. I want to make sure you’re comfortable in our sessions and find it easy to ask questions. I am insistent on making sure students are actually understanding what they are learning. I found I had to change revision tactics a lot of times before finding what worked for me, and once I did, everything clicked! I never thought I’d make it to university with the struggles I faced at A-Level, but I believe everyone needs a little push in the right direction. I now enjoy playing badminton at university and having a good time with my friends – balance is key! I’m very excited to meet you all soon! 😀
My teaching style
I use active recall as it keeps your mind engaged and you’re more likely to remember information in high pressure situations, like when you’re sitting your exams! I’d love to see my students ask me any queries they have at the start of the session – that way I can work through the theory with them again and see if they’re able to figure it out themselves. This encourages a lot more stimulation and they’re more likely to remember it for longer as they’ve made connections to the basics itself.
My past experience
I have been tutoring for 11+ with various family friends who have sat exams in the years after me, but have recently been tutoring Biology A Level with multiple students over the past 6 months!
My Proudest Achievements
My proudest achievement is definitely making it to Medical school! It definitely was something I thought was off the cards once I started struggling at A Level, and I wondered if it was too far fetched to be a doctor. However, I persevered, change revision tactics and found what worked for me, which I still use to this day at Medical school!
