Summer School Mentor
-
Mar 2021 - Oct 2021
I was responsible for leading and mentoring a group of four aspiring students in their application to study medicine. This involved supporting these students during an intense 5-day course involving 1:1 personal statement coaching and interview preparation. I was part of a large team of medical students and doctors who worked together during the summer school program to share ideas and help run events such as virtual mock interviews. I will continue to provide mentoring support to my group of students up until their UCAS submission date in October. Show less
