We are thrilled to offer an exciting opportunity for an organised, committed and enthusiastic individual to join us as a UCAT Tutor at Contour MedPrep.

This is not just an ordinary tutoring position; it's an opportunity to make a meaningful impact on the lives of aspiring medical students. As Australia's leading medical preparation program and highest-scoring UCAT Course, we understand the challenges students face when navigating the complex journey to medical school. Many of these students feel daunted and overwhelmed by the UCAT, and are misguided through their preparation due to a lack of effective support.

The Assistant UCAT Tutor delivers individual consultations to students in Contour MedPrep's UCAT program. You'll teach 20 - 40 individual students each week through 1 on 1 consultations to help them excel, work through difficult questions or just give general advice. Working with high-quality workbooks and consultation templates, and equipped with comprehensive tutor training, you can focus entirely on delivering exceptional teaching and mentoring with minimal admin work.

You'll also attend weekly content lessons to refresh your knowledge and help students in real-time via chat, as well as weekly team meetings to connect with the team and stay updated on the program. This role is perfect for someone who loves working directly with students, enjoys a structured teaching setup, and wants to genuinely help future doctors get into medical school. The role works closely with the UCAT Tutor role as assistant tutors will be able to develop and apply for the UCAT Tutor role.

Who are we

We are Australia’s fastest-growing medical/dental preparation organisation, specialising in comprehensive, innovative and results-driven UCAT and Interview preparation which empowers students to gain admission into medicine and dentistry. 200+ of our 2024 students received offers into medical/dental school for 2025, including 73 offers into Monash, 53 into UQ, 47 into JMP (UoN/UNE), 46 into UNSW and 42 into Adelaide Uni!
