***GAMSAT, MMI and Unimelb subjects*** Hello! My name is Sophie. I'm currently studying Doctor of Medicine(MD2) at the University of Melbourne and have completed a Bachelor of Science and Honours project in Evolutionary Biology. My WAM for my undergrad is 89. Melbourne University currently employs me as a tutor for ITAS and i have 4 years of experience tutoring tertiary subjects. I have an average H1 for my course and have achieved an H1 in all subjects that I tutor. As well as the listed subjects I also tutor for the GAMSAT. I have sat the GAMSAT 3 times, improved an average of 10 points for each section over my successive attempts, and scored within the 95th percentile overall( 96th percentile, 98th percentile and 90th percentile for S1, S2 and S3 respectively). I can succinctly pinpoint high-yield areas for improvement resulting in great results even with time constraints. I am able to mark S2 essays and provide assistance approaching S1 and S3 questions. I am also able to provide MMI preparation sessions for those sitting upcoming medical interviews. I can advise on the best practice for approaching and structuring answers. I also aim to give insight into how to best characterise your individuality under time-restrictive conditions. I have an extremely collaborative teaching style and love to make a session engaging and fun. For me, passion is the key to learning and remembering. This, combined with appropriately structured content and the application of the information, is what I find, helps students the most. I also like to structure my teaching style around your personal learning style I can assist in scientific essay writing, historical essay writing, and exam preparation in numerous neuroscience and psychology subjects. I can also assist in helping you to establish good study routines and employ active recall learning. I am happy to offer a discounted rate for groups. I currently have a few availabilities left for this semester. Please let me know if I can be of assistance.

I cannot recommend Sophie as a GAMSAT S1 and S2 tutor highly enough! Her expertise, dedication, and personalised approach to teaching truly made all the difference in my preparation for the exam. Thank you very much for all your kindness, support and patience Sophie!

Sophie is everything you would want in a tutor and more! Kind, articulate and supportive. Sophie's contributions to my GAMSAT preparations were significant. She provided me with a wealth of knowledge as well as considerable insight into techniques and strategies for improving my S1 GAMSAT abilities. Her explanations for questions were always thorough and easy to understand. Additional to this, every lesson she showed genuine interest in how I was feeling in the lead up to GAMSAT as well as asking how my efforts were progressing with the other 2 sections, not just section 1 which she was tutoring me for. Her efforts and kindness did not go unnoticed, thank you Sophie!

I was fortunate enough to have Sophie tutor me for Research-based human physiology. Sophie is very capable, intelligent and kind. She will go above and beyond to ensure help is provided. She is also very organised and always manages to find a time that works. She also uses an online page to keep track of everything which helped me stay on top of my work. I did not feel confident towards successfully passing this subject but through Sophie’s amazing tutoring, I am very confident I will:) thank you Sophie!!

Sophie has been tutoring me for the last 2 months in Humans Physiology. She is very clear and helpful and has given me so much insight into useful study techniques and exam preparation. She also made me my own online page to keep track of everything. I'm happy to say I'm feeling confident about upcoming exams.
