About Me
I am passionate about psychology and love helping students discover how fascinating it can be! I’ve been tutoring for almost ten years, and for the past three years it’s been my full-time profession.
I hold a First-Class BSc (Hons) in Psychology and an MSc (Distinction) in Occupational & Organisational Psychology, and have just completed a Postgraduate Certificate in Online Teaching.
I have extensive experience supporting neurodiverse learners, including students with dyslexia, ASD, and anxiety disorders, helping each one build confidence and achieve their academic goals.

What I Offer
I teach GCSE to postgraduate Psychology, offering daytime and evening online sessions tailored to each student’s learning style. My lessons focus on:

- Understanding psychological theories and research in depth
- Developing strong evaluation and critical thinking skills
- Building confidence through feedback and mentoring
- Mastering exam and writing techniques to achieve top marks

For A-level and GCSE, I specialise in AQA, Edexcel, and CIE exam boards. For undergraduate and postgraduate students, I provide help with essays, reports, research projects, and academic writing.
I’ve also supported students in nursing, history, and business management, adapting my approach to suit different subjects and learning goals.
