Debolina

I am a 3rd year UCL medical student tutoring Biology, Chemistry up to GCSE level, and Spanish up to A level. I achieved 4 A*s at A levels (Biology, Chemistry, Spanish and EPQ) and nine 9s in my GCSEs. I therefore have the knowledge, experience and enthusiasm to help students reach their potential in these subjects. I also receive all four of my offers for medical school so I can guide students through the process of personal statements, UCAT, BMAT and interview practice in order to help them get their offers!

I have worked with sixth form students mentoring them for A level Biology and and Chemistry as well as their medical school applications. I prepared lessons, worked individually with students and with groups to focus on areas they struggled with, in order to boost their grades and present themselves in the best way to university admissions tutors. Given my recent successful experience with university applications, I have a good understanding of what they look for in candidates and have given helpful advice to students preparing for admissions tests and interviews.

I have discussed and helped edit personal statements with sixth form students applying to university. I also carry out mock interview sessions over Zoom to support students and guide them in their preparation. Having spoken to several medical students and admissions teams, I have a strong understanding of what universities look for in candidates and how to stand out in a sea of applicants. Moreover, I aim to be optimistic, nurturing and patient with all my students and make sure I create a comfortable environment in our lessons for them to learn.
