Mica Watkinson

My lessons are interactive, personalised, and designed to build both understanding and confidence.

I create a supportive, non-judgmental environment where students feel comfortable asking questions and working through difficulties. Each lesson begins by checking understanding of previous material and identifying any concerns, then we tackle new concepts using a mix of clear explanations, real-world examples, and active learning techniques.

Lesson Structure:

- Initial assessment of your current knowledge and learning style
- Interactive teaching with visual aids, case studies, and practical examples
- Active recall practice to strengthen memory and understanding
- Regular progress reviews and exam preparation strategies

My Expertise:

As a current MSc Psychology student with a neuroscience background, I can explain complex topics like biological psychology, research methods, and statistics in accessible ways. My healthcare experience has taught me to adapt explanations for different learning needs, whilst my current work supporting neurodivergent individuals means I'm skilled at creating flexible approaches for all students.

What Makes My Teaching Different:

I don't just teach content, I teach you how to learn psychology effectively. We'll develop your critical thinking skills, exam techniques, and confidence in tackling psychological concepts independently. Whether you're struggling with research methods, need help with essay writing, or want to strengthen your understanding of core psychological theories, I tailor each session to your specific needs and goals.
