Our philosophy

More than practice.
A way of thinking.

Preparing for medicine takes more than another question bank. It takes understanding how you think, where you get stuck and what to do next.

  1. Step 01

    Understand the method

    Practical strategies, a clear sequence and the reasoning behind each step, so you know what to work on and why.

  2. Step 02

    Make it personal

    Your tutor gets to know how you learn and where you get stuck, and plans every lesson around it.

  3. Step 03

    Practise and adapt

    Apply the method to questions you haven’t seen. Build the confidence to think, rather than memorise a script.

  4. Step 04

    Improve with feedback

    Specific, honest feedback after every attempt, so each session moves you a clear step forward.

Meet your head tutor

Hi, I’m Jieaa.
I’ve been there too.

Photo: a warm, natural portrait of Jieaa

I’m a med student in the Joint Medical Program at the University of Newcastle, with a 99+ ATAR and a UCAT score of 3360. But I didn’t start out there, and that’s a big part of why I tutor.

I ended up with multiple medicine and dental offers, including Newcastle, Western Sydney, Adelaide, Griffith and UWA.

Now I teach that same structured approach, tailored to you. Over the past two years, my students have done really well in the UCAT and landed places at Newcastle JMP, Adelaide and Griffith.

Let’s have a chat

I got a 96th percentile… I found it really helpful when we went through the different types of questions for each section and how to approach them.

- UCAT student · 96th percentile

I’ve got offers from UQ, JMP, Monash and Flinders. I’m starting at Monash on the 2nd.

Our lessons really helped me for QR & VR! … I really enjoyed our preparation and how we went through questions together and learn different techniques to answer. It was very helpful!

- UCAT student

I managed to get a JMP offer… Thank you so much for all your help.

- Student · JMP offer

I actually ended up getting an offer for UON… Thanks for the help!
