FEATURED STORIES
Hear it from our students and their families
A few of the journeys we are proudest of, in their own words.
Meet Abby — improved from a fail to 80 per cent in three months
When Abby first came to us, she was failing. She had been trying to study by herself, but she could not quite grasp the concepts and everything felt disorganised.
She felt upset and demotivated, particularly as she noticed her friends doing far better than her. Her confidence had dropped considerably, and her mother was understandably worried. That is what led her to make a change.
Just three months in, Abby realised she had been using the wrong methods to study. Working with us, she learned new techniques that she had never come across before, ones that previous tutors had not been able to give her. The gaps in her understanding finally started to come together.
Abby is now consistently achieving above 80 per cent in her exams. She is proud of how far she has come, she now helps her sister with her studies, and her mother is delighted with her progress.
A couple of things worth flagging before you use this
-
I've toned down the bold, salesy emphasis (FAILING, SHOCKED, etc.) to match a calmer brand voice, but kept every factual claim from the original.
-
Please confirm this testimonial content is still accurate and that Abby (or her parent) has given consent for it to be reused on the new page, since it's a real client's story.
Meet Ashley — from insomnia to straight A's
Ashley was a Year 9 student getting Bs and Cs in her sciences, and she was worried she would not be able to catch up once she moved to the United Kingdom for her further studies.
At a young age, she unfortunately began suffering from insomnia as a result of this pressure.
After working hard together with us, she went from the bottom of the quiz leaderboard to the very top.
She found her exams became easier, and she achieved A's in her sciences, which she was really glad about. She is proud to say that her insomnia has since gone.
A couple of notes:
-
I've kept every factual claim from the original (the Bs/Cs starting point, the insomnia, the leaderboard turnaround, the A grades), just removed the bold, ad-style emphasis.
-
The insomnia detail is a sensitive health disclosure — please double check Ashley or her parent has explicitly consented to that being published, since it goes beyond a typical grade testimonial.
Meet Ashley's dad — reflecting on his Year 9 daughter's improvement
Ashley's dad approached us as he wanted to better prepare his daughter early, ahead of her move to the United Kingdom.
He was very happy with our tutors, as they came from top UK universities and taught genuinely interesting classes.
He was pleasantly surprised that his daughter achieved A's in her recent science exams, as he had not expected such a considerable improvement.
Same note as before applies here too: please confirm Ashley's dad has consented to this video and quote being reused on the new page.
Meet Kerensa — securing her path to straight 9s
Kerensa had been getting grades of 6 and 7 in Year 10, and felt that the teaching she was receiving at school was not meeting her needs, with some explanations she found unclear or inconsistent.
She chose to learn with us because she felt that being taught by tutors who had achieved top grades themselves, including medics, gave her greater confidence in the guidance she was receiving.
In just three months of working with us, she achieved 8s and 9s across all of her sciences, and is on track to score straight 9s in her IGCSEs.
One thing to flag: the original copy directly criticises her school teachers as "not good at teaching" and "inaccurate." I've softened that to avoid publicly disparaging a named third party (a school), which could carry reputational or legal risk for Medic Paths. Worth deciding together whether you want any reference to the school's teaching quality at all, or to drop it entirely and focus only on Kerensa's results.
Meet Kerensa's mum — giving her daughter the chance to apply to top UK sixth form colleges
Kerensa's mum wanted to help her daughter get into top sixth form colleges in the United Kingdom, where the entry requirements are notoriously high.
Within a few months, she noticed that her daughter's grades had significantly improved to excellent, to the point where Kerensa seemed to understand the material better than her own textbooks did.
Kerensa has also become noticeably more confident, something that has been commented on by her school teachers as well.
Note: this one references her school teachers positively, so no concern there, unlike the previous section.

Meet Nekkeil — full 7s for the IB exam
Nekkeil felt that the teaching he received at school was not thorough enough for his needs.
After joining Medic Paths, he moved away from rote memorisation and started learning to genuinely understand the material.
He was delighted to turn around his dipping scores and confidence, and now maintains his current IB grades of 7 out of 7.
Same flag as with Kerensa's section: this one also frames the school's teaching as inadequate ("not thorough"). Worth deciding as a policy across all these testimonials whether you want to keep any school-critical framing, or shift it to focus purely on what Nekkeil gained rather than what his school lacked.
Meet Nekkeil's mum — wishing she had found us earlier
Nekkeil's mother felt confident knowing that our classes were taught by medics, and that this helped her son to develop a genuine enjoyment of the subjects and raise his level of competition.
She enrolled him solely with Medic Paths and knew it was the right choice once he started proactively telling her not to worry about his revision, because he had the support he needed.
This one reads fine as is, no third-party disparagement or sensitive disclosures to flag.
Meet Debbie — became number one in chemistry
Debbie disliked science, as she was struggling with feeling considerably behind. This affected her wellbeing, with flare ups of eczema and disrupted sleep during that time.
After joining us, she developed a genuine enthusiasm for every class, and always had all of her questions answered.
Because she started early, her IGCSEs felt like just another test by the time they arrived, and she was not stressed.
One thing to flag: the eczema and sleep disruption are health details, similar to Ashley's insomnia mention earlier. Please confirm Debbie or her parent has explicitly consented to these being published, since health information is more sensitive than a standard academic testimonial.
Meet Debbie's mum — improved from a fail
Debbie's mum had grown tired of watching her daughter learn with very little interaction at school, and had begun to lose confidence in what the school could offer.
She found Medic Paths and was pleasantly surprised to hear that Debbie was genuinely enjoying the classes.
Having not done well in chemistry herself, she is immensely proud that Debbie's experience turned out to be the opposite of her own.
Same flag as with Kerensa's and Nekkeil's sections: this one also frames the school negatively ("lost hope in the school," "little interaction"). That's now the third testimonial doing this, so it might be worth deciding as a single policy: either soften all of these consistently (as I've done here), or keep the school-critical framing if that's a message you're comfortable standing behind publicly.
