Doctor working in the UK with 5 years' experience tutoring UCAT, personal statements and interviews

Maksim is an exceptional person. This is reflected in what he’s been able to achieve - studying medicine at the UK’s most prestigious university. He’s always been someone who looks deeply into things, and whenever I’ve come to him with questions, whether those be in medicine or chemistry he has had a clear answer that he’s adapted to my skill set. I recommend Maksim to anyone who wants improve their knowledge of natural science and I especially recommend him for anyone trying to achieve top marks and follow him to oxbridge.

Maksim is an excellent study with a fine grasp of anatomy and physiology for medicine. He delivers material to the highest standards and is approachable and friendly. I would highly recommend him as a tutor.

I am writing on behalf of Maksim RICHARDS who named me as a referee for his application for this site. I have known Maksim for three years. He was admitted to study medicine at St John’s College, Oxford in an extremely heavy competition. I have been Maksim's tutor for two years and had weekly tutorials with him in gross anatomy, embryology, histology, endocrinology during his first year and we had neuroscience tutorials during his second year. Maksim is an outstanding student! He excelled in all of these disciplines and consistently produced superb essays, presentations and he was contributing to the tutorials with very thoughtful questions and comments. Maksim has the ability to explain complicated matters in simple, but accurate terms. He seemingly enjoys our tutorials and interacts well with his fellow students. His essays and essay plans are exemplary! He is extremely well organised, he arranged the schedule of our tutorials in consultation of all six medical students in his year, which is a huge challenge with all the extra activities they have besides their studies. I am sure Maksim would be a superb and inspirational tutor in numerous disciplines, students should feel lucky to have him.
