About Tara

I'm a gap year student starting medical school in September 2025. Although it's not a traditionally tutored subject, if you require medical application help (UCAT or interview prep) I'm also happy and able to help with that. I got 3210 (top 2%) on the UCAT last year and 4/4 offers post interview, so I can also provide any guidance in the medical application pathway if you wanted

I have 9 A*s at GCSE level (Maths, Triple Science, French, History, Art, English Language, English Literature) and two years of prior experience tutoring three students through their GCSEs as well as several younger family members. The two students who sat their GCSEs last year increased their grades respectively from a 6/B to an 8/A and from a 5/C to a 7/A-. I have both character and professional references available from my school and individual teachers on request. I will fit my tutoring around my students and adapt our learning schedule to suit their needs. I have worked both with students who struggle with the course content, so need basic support in understanding content, and with students who want to increase their grades but are not necessarily struggling with the content. For students requiring content aid, I build lesson plans before the session and dedicate each session to working through one module of the course. For this type of tutoring, it is useful both to have a timeframe in which to work (i.e. how many sessions before the exam) and specific information on what areas cause the most problems so that I can provide the most effective support. For students looking to get into the higher grade boundaries (7s/8s/9s or A/A*), the focus tends more to be on exam technique, in which case I will work through difficult questions in person, breaking down exam technique regarding 6 mark questions for science subjects and longer essay questions in History/English. I enjoy working with GCSE students, and understand how daunting sitting a large volume of subjects in your first real standardised exam experience can be. Please don't hesitate to contact me if you have any queries (about me or what subjects I am able to tutor) or requests for references.
