VU Health Tutor Carissa

Hi, I'm Carissa, a recent graduate from Victoria University with a Bachelor of Paramedicine. During my time at VU, I had the privilege of serving as a student mentor, guiding fellow students through their academic and practical journey. I led workshops on ECG interpretation and shared insights from my placement experiences, helping students bridge the gap between theory and practice. Currently, I work as an event medic in my free time, applying my clinical skills in real-world situations. This role allows me to stay sharp and continuously refine my practical approach to patient care, which I bring into my tutoring sessions. My hands-on tutoring style emphasizes practical skills and scenario-based learning, preparing students for the diverse challenges they will encounter in the field of paramedicine. I am passionate about supporting students in developing their confidence and competence, ensuring they feel well-equipped for their placements and future careers. Pop me a message if you have any questions!
