About Iona

Hi, my name is Iona and I attend King's College London Postgraduate Medicine Course!. I scored in the top 7% of candidates for the UCAT 2023. I hold a BSc (Hons) in Biomedical Sciences from University of Birmingham and MRes (Hons) in Biomedical Research from Imperial College London. I have extensive experience writing dissertations, outlining scientific methodology, critically analysing and interpreting results. I understand both the stress of sitting exams and the pressure to succeed. We will face this together. I aim to provide support throughout your academic journey and bring to the forefront your potential Through my interactive sessions I aim to empower you and enhance your abilities to give you a competitive streak which will help your application stand out. I have extensive tutoring experience across all ages working with students of all educational needs including ADHD, Autism and Dyslexia. I aim to assess your style of learning and adapt my lessons to suit your needs. I have consistently received positive feedback from the students I've taught. I have an Enhanced DBS Certificate, dated 2022. Let's get started!

This will act as a guide for my lesson planning. - Verbal Reasoning = learn tips on how to allocate time during this section to score the most points, strengthening your ability to speed read and rapidly identify what a question is asking, where to look in the text and how to distinguish the answer. - Decision Making = learn tips on how to allocate time during this section, how to solve syllogisms, logic puzzles, Venn diagrams and probability. - Quantitative Reasoning = tips on tackling common maths problems, increasing speed through calculator use and mental maths. - Abstract Reasoning = learn key patterns which repeatedly come up, method for rapidly analysing a question to get the answer right. - Situational Judgement = guidance through key ethical concepts, detailed understanding of common medical incidents and how best to respond. PERSONAL STATEMENT GUIDANCE OFFERED - Guidance on how to tackle the structure which is most favoured by examiners. - Assessing your background and experiences and providing advice on what to include to help your application stand out. - I will review several drafts as you progress, guiding you on how to enhance your writing - I also offer a proof-reading service. If your statement is more-or-less complete and just needs a fresh pair of eyes, I can do that for you.

Perfect! I have had the privilege of working with Iona for over a year as my UCAT tutor, and her support has been invaluable throughout my preparation. From the very beginning, she has been unwavering in her commitment to helping me succeed. Iona has provided consistent guidance, encouragement, and motivation, even during the most challenging times. Her dedication is truly remarkable. she is firm in her approach and will not rest until her students reach their full potential.
Thanks to Iona, I feel not only better prepared for the UCAT but also more confident in my abilities. I cannot recommend her highly enough for anyone seeking a dedicated and passionate tutor who will go the extra mile to ensure success. Thank you Iona.

Since Iona began tutoring my youngest child, I have seen a major improvement in my daughter’s English Literature and Language grades, enthusiastic engagement in conversation as well as our home library and significant change in her attitude towards problem-solving.

I believe in addition to covering the curriculum and standard analysis and writing techniques, the pedagogical approach Iona uses has really brought my daughter out of her shell and led her to discovering a newfound love for her chosen subject. I can’t thank her enough for her patience and support.
