Sciences, Humanities, Medical School Applications

An Oxford Philosophy and Psychology graduate who went on to graduate-entry medicine, Marco brings a broad academic background and a particular interest in helping students who lack academic motivation.

Marco

Marco graduated from Pembroke College, University of Oxford with a BA in Philosophy and Psychology, before going on to study graduate-entry medicine at King’s College London. His wide-ranging background allows him to support students across the sciences, humanities and medical school applications.

At Oxford, Marco ran tutorials and Q&A sessions for the students in the year below him at Pembroke, helping with exam preparation, technique and academic problems. He has a particular interest in working with young people who need an extra role model or who are struggling to turn their intelligence into academic success.

Marco believes tutoring adds the most value when it is both tailored and enjoyable. He looks at each student’s situation as a whole, considering attitude, expectations, confidence, technique and circumstances, and draws on his background in psychology to give students the tools to unlock their full potential.
