Trusted Expertise in Pharmacology, Prescribing and Medical Education

I am the Prescribing Lead at a UK Medical School, where I design and deliver clinically focused pharmacology and prescribing education for Years 3–5 medical students, including a large cohort of international learners preparing for UK clinical assessments.

In this role, I work closely with senior academic staff to inform curriculum delivery, contribute to assessment decisions, and provide targeted exam support, achieving clearly defined outcomes including student pass rates of 90–93% in recent cohorts.

Alongside this, I have worked as a Senior Lecturer in Pharmacy Practice & Pharmaceutics and a Module Lead for postgraduate Non-medical Prescribing, supporting both undergraduate and qualified healthcare professionals in developing safe and effective prescribing skills.

My clinical experience includes working as a Primary Care Network pharmacist in the NHS, contributing to the development and delivery of services such as care home medicines optimisation, anticoagulation (DOAC) management, and structured asthma reviews, supporting safe, effective and evidence-based prescribing.

I have also worked as a Medical Educator with AstraZeneca for the North West Region of the UK, delivering 1:1 online education to doctors, pharmacists and nurses, focusing on the clinical use of Trixeo (triple therapy inhaler for COPD) and the practical application of pharmacology in respiratory care.

This combination of medical school teaching, clinical practice and prescribing education gives me direct insight into how pharmacology is taught, assessed and applied in UK exams and real clinical settings — allowing me to focus tutoring on what truly matters and helping students understand more clearly, apply knowledge effectively, and perform with confidence.

I offer tutoring that is friendly, knowledgeable and tailored to your level. Sessions are designed to help you understand the why behind difficult topics — not just memorise facts — so that you can apply your knowledge with more confidence in exams and clinical scenarios.
