Hi future doctors!
My name is Almira, and I’m a first-year medical student at the University of Toronto’ I immigrated from Central Asia to Canada 6 years ago on my own, and in my very first cycle applying, I was fortunate to receive interviews and an acceptance to U of T as OOP.
What sets me apart? I’ve mentored dozens of students over the years and take pride in seeing my mentees succeed — many of them reaching their dream schools on their first try. Having gone through this process as a newcomer and first-generation applicant, I know how overwhelming it can feel.
My goal is to make it clear, approachable, and achievable for you.
You can expect:
✔️ Personalized, detailed feedback on applications and ABS
✔️ Proven strategies for standing out
✔️ Guidance tailored to first-gen and immigrant applicants
✔️ Affordable rates — because I know how expensive this journey already is
Outside of med school, I love cooking, traveling, and creating content about my path from PhD researcher to medical student.
I’d be excited to work with you and help make this journey feel less overwhelming. Let’s get you one step closer to that acceptance! :))

Aida Almira and I went over some MMI station prep together. She gave me some great insight, and is so kind and helpful!

I had a fantastic tutoring session experience with Almira! She was incredibly kind and helpful in evaluating my application and listening to my story, to provide better ways to integrate what I wanted to say into my essays. What I really appreciated was how she took the time to look at my application outside of our scheduled session, and came up with helpful suggestions and strategies ahead of time. In doing so, we had a very productive session. Almira was also very knowledgeable and helped with brainstorming ways to better improve my application. She was one of the best tutors I had and I highly recommend her!
