Private Tutoring

Private Tutoring for Students of Chinese Medicine

Personalised support for acupuncture and Chinese medicine students — taught by a qualified educator and licensed acupuncturist

Training in acupuncture and Chinese medicine is demanding. You are balancing classical theory, modern biomedical knowledge, point location, diagnosis, treatment planning and hands-on clinical skills — often under exam pressure and with limited time to consolidate.

At NRQi Studio, I offer one-to-one tutoring that combines real clinical experience with a strong teaching background. I hold a degree in teaching and a Master’s in education, so sessions are structured, clear and tailored to how you learn best — not just what you need to memorise.

What makes this tutoring different

Many tutors know the medicine. Fewer are trained in how to teach it. My approach focuses on:

  • Breaking down complex concepts into manageable steps

  • Building confidence through repetition, feedback and clear frameworks

  • Helping you understand clinical logic (so you can apply it in exams and practice)

What tutoring can cover

  • TCM foundations: Yin-Yang, Five Elements, Zang-Fu, Qi/Blood/Fluids

  • Pattern differentiation: how to think through symptoms and form a diagnosis

  • Tongue and pulse: interpretation, common patterns, and clinical relevance

  • Point location and actions: understanding function, not just recall

  • Treatment planning: creating coherent point prescriptions with rationale

  • Exam preparation: written and practical exams as well as case studies

  • Clinic support: supervision-style discussion to build real-world confidence

Who it’s for

  • Students who want stronger foundations and less overwhelm

  • Students preparing for exams or practical assessments

  • Students on clinical placement who want help translating theory into practice

  • Newly qualified practitioners wanting to sharpen their skills

Format

  • 1:1 sessions (online or in person at NRQi Studio)

  • Fully tailored to your course, learning goals and current challenges

  • Optional pre-work (notes/questions) so we use session time efficiently

Pricing

  • £65 per hour at NRQi Studio or online

  • £75 per hour if I travel to meet you at City College of Acupuncture (London)

If you’d like tutoring support, feel free to contact me to book a session. Together we can go over what you’re studying, as well as what you’re finding difficult. We’ll build a plan that boosts your confidence and ensures that you are exam-ready.
