Michelle

Hello, I`m Michelle, a 2nd year medical student, who has achieved a UCAT of 3470 B1 and four A-stars in A Level Biology, Chemistry, Maths and Psychology.

I`m a current student at the University of Leicester and I have received offers from King`s College London and the University of Sheffield.

My aim is to support students through their studies and applications and make them seem less daunting. I`ve learnt how to best navigate the resources available and I hope to get to know you and share the best tips with you!

While I have gained experience from tutoring in the past years, I believe each person is unique and I will do my best to learn from you and adjust my approach accordingly.

I enjoy seeking out opportunities to connect with current and prospective students, which has led me to become part of the student un ion at my sixth form and now an ambassador for the medical school. I am thoroughly enjoying my studies at university, especially when it comes to haematology and genetics.

Experience: • 4A* in A Level Chemistry, Maths, Biology and Psychology
• 3470 B1 UCAT (top 5 nationally)
• 100+ tutoring hours across 1:1 sessions and small groups
• Extensive experience tutoring for the UCAT and running mock interviews
• Tutored A Level Chemistry, Maths and Biology

It can be difficult to navigate exactly what needs to be learnt to achieve the marks in exams, or the techniques to apply to ace admissions tests. When tutoring, I focus on learning what works best for each student, and then streamlining the needed information into high-yield exam technique.

Moreover, when tutoring for the UCAT I focus on breaking down complex questions and suggesting methods for each subtest, adapting to what the student needs. Following from this, I have further mentored in medical school interviews; I do my best to research the universities the student has received an interview from and then formulate sessions with a mixture of practice interview questions and more general discussion based tasks to stimulate lateral thinking. I have also successfully run mock interviews after the which I gave detailed, question by question breakdowns of each answer, both verbally and in a document.
