Saiyuri

Hi, my name is Saiyuri. I’m South African, now living in the UK, and I’ve had the joy of immersing myself in different cultures through travel, study, and work—something that helps me connect with people from all walks of life and bring a fresh, open-minded approach to tutoring.

My lessons are designed to be interactive, supportive, and tailored to each student’s individual learning style and goals. I bring a warm, student-centered approach to teaching, where curiosity is encouraged, critical thinking is nurtured, and learning feels both engaging and empowering.

Sessions typically begin with a brief check-in to set intentions and identify areas for focus. From there, we work through content using a combination of structured material, open discussion, and reflective exercises. I use clear explanations, real-life examples, and active questioning to deepen understanding and promote application. Whether you're looking for help with academic writing, clinical concepts, or personal development as a future practitioner, my aim is to create a space where you feel comfortable exploring ideas and asking questions.

With a background in psychology and therapeutic work across diverse settings—including the NHS, criminal justice system, and third-sector services—I integrate academic knowledge with real-world insight. I also have experience supporting students through their own academic journeys, offering guidance on essays, placements, presentations, and thesis work.

I value inclusivity, authenticity, and collaboration, and I aim to foster a learning environment that is respectful and empowering. If you're looking for a tutor who will take the time to understand your needs, challenge you to grow, and celebrate your progress along the way, I’d love to work with you.
