I have been studying psychology for 3+ years. I am a second-year university student studying psychology at King's College London, currently maintaining a first-class score. I have also studied Higher Level IB Psychology, where in my final exams I achieved the second-highest marks for the subject.

I was also an intern at Fortis Hospital and a trainee/mentee at The Mind Research Foundation, both based in Bangalore, India. At these positions, I gained hands-on experience in real-case analysis of different patient situations, as well applying learned theory of various counseling methodologies including CBT and REBT.

I grew up in the United States, and have additionally lived in Singapore, India, and currently, the United Kingdom, this has given me enriching experience working with peers and children of all backgrounds. Additionally, I have spent some time tutoring younger kids in my school, allowing me to learn patience and understanding when teaching a subject.

I believe that education must be tailored according to the needs of the student, which is why in my teaching style I believe in constructive criticism and reflecting upon feedback to learn the preferences of my individual students. In my eyes, understanding and patience triumphs a harsh learning environment, and that positive reinforcement is the most effective way to increase motivation and interest when learning.
