I love Psychology and I love teaching it. Psychology has such a varied content that it is easy for me to find a connection for the student, between themselves and the subject.

My favourite subject areas are Psychopathology, Social & Forensics. I also recognise that students find topic areas such as Biopsychology and Research Methods quite difficult so I have developed strategies to enable students to access these subjects as easily as they might Attachments or Gender.

I employ a variety of teaching methods which work in the classroom and online such as paircards, sorting exercises and video. I ensure worksheets and materials are sent to students prior to the lesson.

It’s important to me that all students reach their potential. I ensure we make use of articles and current publications for students to include in their written work to demonstrate a depth and breadth of understanding of the topic area.

Experience:
I have over ten years teaching experience, including seven years as Head of Psychology within a high school. I have also marked A Level exams for AQA so I am clear on what is needed by students throughout the process of their A Levels.

I currently teach Psychology courses, such as Forensic & Developmental within Adult Education. I teach A Level Psychology in a Steiner School and I host tutor sessions online for GCSE & A Level students with mental health issues that can not access main stream education.
