London Area, United Kingdom
I’m a first-year Medicine MBBS student at UCL with a strong interest in applying scientific knowledge to real clinical and community settings. Alongside my studies, I tutor Year 4–5 pupils preparing for grammar school entrance exams, helping them build confidence in English, maths and reasoning skills. I also volunteer through university societies and mentoring programmes, supporting Year 12 students aspiring to study Medicine. These experiences have strengthened my communication, leadership and teamwork skills, while deepening my commitment to widening access and supporting younger students. I’m keen to continue developing personally and professionally through opportunities in healthcare, education and community outreach.
As an Amos Bursary Scholar, I am part of a prestigious programme that provides personal and professional development through mentorship, internships, leadership training, career guidance, networking opportunities, community support and an empowering digital learning platform. The initiative equips me with the skills, network, and opportunities to excel in my academic and professional journey.
