Clinical Senior Lecturer, Bristol Dental School
Ali van den Berg has consistently empowered us to think critically about our academic journey. Her teaching style goes beyond delivering content—she challenges us to reflect deeply on our clinical decisions, embrace evidence-based practice, and continuously evaluate our progress. Through her constructive feedback and thought-provoking discussions, she has played a pivotal role in shaping our confidence and competence as future healthcare professionals.
Dr. Ali takes a personal interest in each student’s journey. She encourages us to think about who we are—not just as students, but as future professionals—and to consider how our values align with the kind of clinicians we aspire to become. Her guidance has helped many of us clarify our career goals, build self-awareness, and take actionable steps toward our ambitions with confidence.
