About Maria
Hi, I’m Maria! I’m a 4th-year dental student at the University of Sheffield and a Biomedical Sciences graduate from Queen Mary University of London. I achieved a the top percentile in my UCAT.
I have over four years of experience supporting dental applicants through their application process, including personal statements and interview training. During my own application cycle, I received 3 offers, and I’ve since helped students achieve offers from a wide range of universities. This has given me a strong understanding of how application expectations, UCAT performance, and interview styles vary across institutions.

For UCAT tutoring, I focus on developing effective strategies, improving timing, and building confidence across all sections of the exam. I break down each section into clear, manageable techniques and tailor sessions to target individual strengths and weaknesses. We work through practice questions together, refine approaches, and focus on accuracy under timed conditions to maximise scores.
For dental school applications, I provide structured and personalised support at every stage. This includes helping students craft strong personal statements, develop their motivations for dentistry, and prepare for interviews. I offer guidance on both MMI and panel-style interviews, focusing on how to structure answers, communicate clearly, and stand out as a candidate.
My teaching approach is supportive, structured, and tailored to each student. I aim to create a comfortable environment where students feel confident asking questions and developing their answers. Sessions are interactive and include detailed feedback, allowing students to continuously improve and refine their performance. I also provide targeted feedback after sessions to support ongoing progress.
My goal is to help students feel fully prepared, confident, and capable of achieving strong UCAT scores and securing dental school offers.

Maria helped me improve my Biology grade by 2 grades. I went from struggling with the content to actually understanding it and my grade improved a lot because of it. She explains things in a really clear, simple way and always takes the time to make sure I fully understand before moving on. We also did loads of exam questions which really helped with my technique. I felt so much more confident going into my exams and it honestly made a huge difference.
Maria helped me so much with UCAT prep, especially with timing and strategy which I was really struggling with at the start. She broke down each section in a way that actually made sense and gave me tips that made a big difference in my score. I felt a lot more confident going into the exam and ended up doing way better than I expected!
Maria was honestly such a big help with my studies and made topics I struggled with feel so much easier to understand. She explains things really clearly and always takes the time to go over anything I’m unsure about without making me feel stressed. I felt way more confident going into my exams thanks to her and ended up improving a lot.
I cannot recommend Maria highly enough. She is an exceptional tutor who goes above and beyond to support her students, combining clear, structured teaching with a genuinely supportive and approachable style. Maria has a talent for breaking down complex concepts into simple, understandable ideas, while also building confidence and strong exam technique. Her insight into UCAT preparation and dental applications is especially valuable, offering practical strategies and guidance that truly make a difference. Thanks to her support, I saw a significant improvement in both my understanding and performance, and felt much more confident throughout the process.
