I specialize in tutoring all three sections of GAMSAT. Each student receives a personalized study schedule, and a systematic approach and general advice to tackling the exam.
I provide a systematic approach for Sections 1 and 3, which can be applied for all questions and hopefully make the exam less daunting. Material will be provided.
My GAMSAT Section 2 results have both scored 71 and 72 on the two occasions I've sat it (Mar 18, Sep 18). I look forward to helping you on your essay-writing journey. You can expect from me i) essay topic questions ii) reading lists iii) individually revised essays.

Tommy is a wonderful tutor that really helps you feel as though challenging work is easy and approachable. He explains things in a simple and thorough way which allows you to apply step by step procedures to every problem. I wouldn't have been so calm and ready for the exam without him!

Absolute gun. His ability to help you generate ideas and create a deeper understanding of the concepts improved my scores immensely in section 2 of the GAMSAT. Definitely worth considering.

Tommy is an extremely dedicated and diligent tutor. He has a friendly, kind and patient personality and is very approachable. He has a deep understanding of difficult concepts, but is able to convey ideas clearly.
He has a great deal of life experience travelling around the world and in the army, so is a great person to go to for advice about work-life balance and getting the most out of your degree.
I would highly recommend Tommy for any student who wants to excel in their studies while having fun!
