Urja Shah

tutor

I am a first year medicine student, and I enjoy delivering lessons in a visual and auditory manner, which are engaging and improve understanding of concepts significantly. Developing clear plans and goals with the student and my strong interpersonal skills allow for me to create lessons which will directly cater to the requirements of students. I have been tutoring for 2 years, working with students from Year 3 - Year 12 in sciences, specialising in Chemistry for students undertaking Year 11 and 12. Alongside this, I also teach creative writing/ English speaking skills for age levels and abilities (not just school aged students). Moreover, I took Chemistry and Physics in my tertiary package, and achieved in the top 5% of my cohort consistently. I received the highest unit scores in all of ACT for all high school semesters of Literature and English, consistently topping my cohort, and have been published in various journals. Through my performance in these subjects, I gained admission into medical school.
