My lessons are structured but flexible, and always tailored to the individual student. At the start of tutoring, I aim to learn more about the student’s strengths, areas for improvement, and exam board requirements, so sessions are focused and effective.
Lessons typically include:
- Clear explanations of key Psychology concepts
- Breaking down difficult topics step-by-step
- Practice exam questions with mark-scheme-focused feedback
- Guidance on how to structure answers to maximise marks

I place a strong emphasis on exam technique, as students often find it challenging to apply their knowledge effectively in order to access the higher marks. I also help students develop effective revision strategies and provide high-quality resources that supported me during my own A-Level exams and helped me achieve a high A*. In addition, I have experience working with young people with learning disabilities, which has helped me develop a patient, adaptable, and inclusive teaching style. I aim to create a supportive and encouraging learning environment where students feel comfortable asking questions and building confidence. Lessons can be adapted to focus on content teaching, revision, or exam preparation depending on the student’s goals and stage in the course.

I am happy to support students of all ability levels, whether they are aiming to improve their understanding, boost confidence, or achieve top grades. I encourage active participation during lessons and regularly check understanding to ensure progress is being made. I am also happy to set optional tasks or exam questions between sessions to support ongoing learning and consolidation.
