Vith currently studies medicine at the University of Oxford, having done his first three years at Pembroke College and is now doing his final three years at Green Templeton College. For A-levels, he studied Maths (A*), Biology (A*) and Chemistry (A). 

 

Teaching is something that Vith has genuinely enjoyed over the past few years. His experience includes tutoring for the ‘OxfordHub’ where he volunteered to tutor pupils from disadvantaged backgrounds within the local Oxford Area. More recently, Vith has tutored year 7-13 pupils in Biology, specifically preparing them for their summer examinations. 

On top of this, he has also guided several students through their medical school applications. This has involved conducting personal statement writing workshops, sessions on the UCAT and BMAT, as well as giving mock interviews (geared not just towards Oxbridge but other medical schools as well).

What Vith finds particularly rewarding about tutoring is witnessing first-hand the positive impact a tutor can have on a student. Through several years of revision for his GCSEs, A-levels and now University exams, he believes he is able to share some useful advice and techniques enabling students to excel academically.
