I am a very determined and passionate person. I work really hard because I believe we have all been endowed with the capacity and ability to reach our goals.
I am particularly good with students who have a learning difficulty or learn differently. Not only do I know the curriculum (for the IB and the A levels) very well, but also find different approaches to learning.
As an enthusiastic and active researcher alongside being a qualified teacher in the Further Education and Skills sector, I am determined to enhance lives through the power of education and make a difference. I believe I possess a large variety of skills which could be utilized for teaching or researching. The aim of my life is to challenge myself into new opportunities to ensure others benefit from the work I do. The wealth of experiences in my life so far have allowed to understand that being a researcher or teacher, I will need to wear many different hats to ensure all the needs of the lives concerned are met. An excellent communicator and listener who has the ability to juggle multiple tasks and work under pressure. Skilled in research and analysis.
Your style matters to me, Visual, Audio or kinaesthetic, we will cover it all.
I got 100% in my A2 Psychology Essays, I will show you how. If you're at uni read my description.
A-LEVEL TUTORING (Uni tutoring see below)
I got 100% in my psychology essays at A2 (AQA). I did this through a couple of memorisation techniques and by enjoying writing.
The good thing about Psychology at A-Level is that you don't need to be a great writer. You need to know your studies and be able to analyse them well. There are things that examiners look for that you can insert in every paragraph. It's almost like a checklist.
I won't waste your time. I'll teach you what they're looking for and how to write it. Sadly, you don't need a great amount of understanding for A-Level essays. Luckily, this means that if you can put in the effort to learn what you need to you can score very well.
UNI TUTORING
There is a lot of content for all university exams, learning by rote makes it difficult to get good marks. If you need to understand something specific and complicated well enough for you to use in an essay or in an exam I can help you every step of the way. For Uni tutoring I do not do general module tutoring, but can help you to grasp concepts that are difficult to get. If you just can't understand a core theory I can teach it to you. I specialise in the more philosophical psychological concepts (e.g. how we think; how we feel emotions (James-Lange theory is more correct than you know)) but can teach you anything from Pavlov to Zajonc.
Eclectically educated, I tutor Psychology and also Philosophy to Bachelor level. I am passionately engaged in both disciplines and have found them to be enlightening in both formal education and personal development. I consider teaching to be entirely student centred and therefore each student will require a uniquely tailored approach to encourage the manifestation of their greatest potential. I am able and willing to adapt to each individual specific requirements, goals and preferred teaching style where specified and possible. I encourage this to be communicated early in the discourse to enable a thoroughly positive experience.
I am fascinated by behaviour and how the mind works so to be able to share this through psychology tutoring with other people who share the same passion and interest is amazing.
I am able to offer online tutoring which means my availability is greater with no need for commuting and you don't have the intrusion of someone in your home.
