My Passion & How I Inspire

My approach to teaching is heavily influenced by the Oxbridge supervision/tutorial system, which I experienced when I was there as a student. Instead of the didactic top-down school method most young people receive, I believe learning should always be a conversation. Interaction stimulates the mind and nurtures interest in topics. As a medical student I am also experienced in explaining complex ideas and topics in a digestible and understandable way. I also believe that everyone, regardless of ability, should have their own varying goals, and it is always in my best interest to support and nurture those aspirations.

My Experience

A2 and AS Biology (OCR and AQA): weekly learning guidance and exam preparation, with students obtaining places at London medical schools.

Medical School and Oxbridge Applications: Mentoring prospective medical and science students applying to Oxbridge and UK medical schools. My students came from different countries and from a diverse range of backgrounds.
