Biology and Medicine Tuition in Coombe (Croydon)

I am an Oxford medical school graduate with experience as an admissions tutor interviewing candidates for the University of Oxford Medical School, as well as teaching Oxford undergraduate medical students.

I am a junior doctor and I have just completed my Foundation training having worked in the NHS for the past 2 years. I completed my studies at the University of Oxford in 2022 where I was also awarded the Society for Endocrinology Undergraduate Achievement Award as well as the Graduate Development Scholarship at St Anne's College for 2 consecutive years (2020-22).

Tutoring Experience

As part of the Graduate Development Scholarship, I gave tutorials to 2nd year medicine undergraduate students at St Anne's College - this specifically involved teaching about infection and immunity with a particular focus on introducing students to research evidence and clinical application of the discussed topics. I received positive feedback with regards to how I structured the tutorials and the constructive feedback I gave on their essays.

Additionally, I acted as admissions tutor in 2020 in which I interviewed candidates for the University of Oxford Medical School and worked with other tutors to evaluate and subsequently rank candidate performance.

Tutoring Approach

I employ a thorough approach and spend a lot of time preparing materials and reviewing students' work, providing detailed feedback. The sessions are highly interactive and I encourage students to talk through their thinking process and reach their own conclusions, a quality that I know first-hand is valued by Oxbridge tutors.

I am happy to offer more specific Oxbridge interview, other medical school interview practice (I was also successful in my interviews with Imperial College and King's College) and help with personal statements etc. Please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions or enquiries!
