I am a Psychology teacher with 11 years experience. Having previously worked as a Head of Department, I am now Director of Sixth Form at a Girl’s Independent School in London.
I have previously taught the OCR specification but have been teaching AQA A Level Psychology for the past 8 years. I have taught all areas of the specification but my Paper 3 specialist options are Aggression, Gender and Schizophrenia. I specialise know mid-high ability students but can teach to any ability. In addition to my in school teaching, I have been a private tutor to a number of A Level students (boys and girls). I have previously taught these in the tutees homes but am now offering online tutoring. I taught online throughout the lockdowns and also have been offering online revision lessons more recently and so am very experienced in online teaching.
I also have experience with assisting students with personal statement writing and preparing Oxbridge candidates for interview. Finally, I can offer support for undergraduate dissertation writing in the form of proof reading and advice on introduction and discussion structure.
My aim when teaching Psychology is always to foster a love of the subject. Intrigue in what you are studying always aids with understanding and with retaining knowledge. I teach with high expectations and go beyond the syllabus. With regards to revision, I work in two main ways. Firstly discussion around the topics to peak interest and then a focus on exam technique.
