Dr Jack Amiry
I'm a medical doctor who splits my clinical time between General Practice and as a ‘GP with Extended Role’ within the Dermatology team at the Royal Berkshire Hospital.
In 2019-20 as part of my final year of training GP I undertook a Medical Education Fellowship with the Graduate Entry Medicine course. During this time I was offered a role teaching Pembroke medical students and jumped at the chance!
I believe learning is active process, and works best when educators facilitate students' interrogation of their own cognitive structures, encouraging them to form more complex and meaningful ways of thinking about the material. At the same time, students often feel under huge pressure from myriad sources and I believe it is crucial to foster an environment in which learners feel comfortable to be themselves, have periods of vulnerability and are able to make mistakes. Ultimately, I try to treat students in the ways that resonated with me when I was in their position.
In 2021 I was proud to receive both a “Recognition for Excellence in Teaching” award from Pembroke, and an "Early Career Excellent Teacher" award from the University's Medical Sciences Divison.
Outside of Pembroke, I’m involved in a range of activities within the School of Medicine. This includes clinical lectures, pastoral care for students, communication skills teaching, clinical and scientific tutorials and writing/reviewing exam questions.
I’m also involved in promoting equality, diversity and inclusion with the medical school and will be Interim Co-Chair of the EDI Working Group for the Clinical School of Medicine for 2021-22.

Other Interests
My other interests make for rather boring reading in a biography, I'm afraid. Food with loved ones, films/TV series, science-fiction novels, any kind of exercise (not golf) and generally just spending as much time as possible with my wife doing all of the above.
