About me
I am a medical student studying at King's College London. Science has always been my passion and I have extensive experience both studying and teaching!
I am very excited to be able to help students reach their full potential and am confident that I can transfer my love for learning into my lessons. Students will have the opportunity to direct their learning and, together, we will set goals and targets to achieve.
I have also gone through the exhausting process of applying to medical school and it would be my great pleasure to help more students achieve their dreams. This would include help with personal statements, advice on securing work experience placements, UKCAT & BMAT preparation and interview practise.
Please contact me with any questions! I look forward to our journey together.

Questions Yanina has answered
What is the difference between an allele and a gene?
A gene is a section of DNA coding for a specific protein. This protein will perform a certain function within the organism. You interit two forms of each gene, one from each parent. These are known as the alleles. The two alleles you inherit can be the same, or slightly different, giving rise to slighty different protein products. An example of this, are the blue and brown alleles determining eye colour. Both are the same gene; they code for the colour of the iris. However, depending on your combination of alleles the actual colour of your eyes can vary.
