About Me

Hey, I’m Derry!

I look forward to sharing with you the different strategies that I used to tackle the medical school application and to help you on your way to becoming a successful doctor!

The process to apply for medicine is a daunting one, and it is often easy to get lost within the mountains of work that needs to be done. However, hopefully with my help and extensive experience in preparing for these particular exams, as well as previous tutoring experience, I can help make that process a lot less stressful!

I am adaptive in my teaching style, and I can cater to students’ differing needs and preferences.

The difficult process that is involved in applying to medical school are still very recent in my history and remain very clear in my memory. I am confident that, with my recent and up-to-date knowledge, I can offer you the various types of support that you may need on this journey towards medicine.

(I needed to drop out of Imperial College London for various personal reasons and I am no longer a student there, I however do aspire to reapply in the coming year) 🙂

My teaching style

I like to teach students through active engagement with the exam content. I believe that the most effective way to learn is through the making of mistakes, and learning from those mistakes. However, I am more than happy to adapt my teaching style to suit students’ needs and preferences as needed.

My past experience

Yes, I do. I have tutored 90 hours on MedicMind across the UCAT, BMAT and HPAT.

In addition I have tutored around 25 hours of Irish Leaving Certificate (A-Level Equivalent) Maths and Chemistry with 3 students.
