My lessons are interactive, engaging, and tailored to each student’s level, whether you’re in high school, studying A-Level, or working at degree level. I cover the main areas of psychology, including cognitive, developmental, social, biological, and abnormal psychology, as well as key topics in mental health, learning, personality, and research methods. I also support students in understanding the basics of statistics, experimental design, and how to apply theory to practical examples.

Each session combines clear explanations of concepts with real-world applications, helping students connect theory to everyday experiences. I focus on developing understanding, critical thinking, and exam-ready skills, such as essay planning, case study analysis, and applying psychological models. Lessons are structured to encourage questions, discussion, and active participation, making complex ideas more accessible and easier to retain.

With my background in psychology, psychotherapy, and counselling, I bring both academic knowledge and insight into how people learn and think. I aim to create a supportive and stimulating environment, where students feel confident exploring ideas, challenging themselves, and building skills they can use beyond the classroom.

I have experience working with a wide range of learners, from those just starting high school psychology to A-Level students preparing for exams, and degree-level students tackling more complex theory and research. My approach adapts to each student’s current understanding, pace, and goals, ensuring lessons are effective, engaging, and suited to their level.

Whether you want to strengthen your grasp of core concepts, improve exam performance, or develop a deeper appreciation for psychology, my lessons are designed to help you succeed and enjoy the subject along the way.
