I am a UK- and Hong Kong–based Doctoral Candidate in Educational Psychology, currently at the final stage of my studies and awaiting my viva (oral examination).
Educational psychology focuses on understanding how children and young people learn, and how academic and emotional factors influence learning within education settings. It is concerned with learning and development in areas such as schoolwork, routines, motivation, and how students cope with learning demands.
Educational psychology supports all learners, not only those with diagnosed needs. Rather than focusing solely on outcomes, it attends to the learning process — helping make sense of learning differences, strengths, and challenges, with or without a formal diagnosis, and considering how support can be adjusted to meet an individual learner’s needs.
My work is informed by professional training alongside lived experience of managing learning needs related to executive functioning and reading. This combined perspective supports a structured and reflective approach to learning support, grounded in an understanding of how learning demands can be made more accessible and manageable.
Through my professional practice and doctoral training, I have supported children and young people aged 0–25 years with ADHD, dyslexia, autism (ASD/ASC), disability, and other complex needs, using evidence- and practice-based approaches to help students and families identify effective and sustainable strategies.
I offer psychologically informed learning support, working directly with students (aged 0–25 years) and families in a freelance capacity. My approach draws on educational psychology principles and SEND practice, including adapted elements of the UK Assess–Plan–Do–Review cycle, to support structured learning outside of school settings.
I do not provide diagnosis, therapy, or psychological assessment at this stage.
Example 5-Session Structure
Session 1: Assess — Understanding How the Student Learns
Initial conversation with the parent and student, separately where appropriate
Clarify goals and key concerns
Explore how the student approaches learning and tasks
Identify strengths and areas of pressure
Clarify what supports or hinders progress (e.g. workload, task clarity, initiation, attention)
Sessions 2–4: Plan & Do — Building Practical Study Strategies for Home and Independent Learning
Based on the student’s learning profile, practical strategies are selected and co-created with the student and parent. These may include:
Focusing on challenges that arise during homework, revision, and independent study
Breaking schoolwork into manageable steps that can be completed at home with increasing independence
Putting simple systems in place to organise homework, deadlines, and revision tasks
Developing practical attention and focus strategies suited to home study environments
Creating predictable routines that support starting, sustaining, and completing work outside school hours
Reducing reliance on constant adult prompting through planning tools, visual supports, and simple scripts
Supporting students to take increasing ownership of these systems over time
Building confidence and predictability around learning demands, helping reduce anxiety related to mistakes or uncertainty
Supporting students to understand their learning profile in practical, non-clinical ways that promote readiness to learn
Session 5 (or agreed final session): Review
Review progress at an agreed point (e.g. end of the month or another suitable timeframe)
Reflect on what is working well and what may need adjustment
Refine strategies to further support independence and sustainability
This approach recognises that effective support looks different for each learner and prioritises practical strategies that can be used, adapted, and sustained over time.
