I have a Psychology BSc (2:1) from a University of London and thoroughly enjoyed learning about behavioural genetics and developmental disorders, including early childhood relationships.
I knew I wanted to teach and completed my PGCE in 2011 at Bristol University. I have been teaching full time ever since and have never looked back!
I am head of psychology and sociology in an outstanding secondary school with over 15 years teaching experience. In addition to this, I have marked external exams for AQA A level Psychology. Year on year my results are improving, always achieving higher than the national average.
I am also head of sociology (over 12 years teaching experience), teaching the AQA specification. I teach the options unit of Families and Households and Mass Media (Paper 2).
I have over 15 years teaching experience and have taught in a range of secondary schools with a diverse cohort of students including SEND and Gifted and Talented students.
Are you looking for an A Level/GCSE psychology/sociology tutor for your son/daughter? Is your child feeling under pressure and have gaps in knowledge and skills?
In my experience students tend to struggle with exam technique and application. Psychology and Sociology are both synoptic subjects, meaning students are expected to draw on and apply multiple areas of the course.
I am a specialist teacher of psychology and sociology and am able to offer one to one virtual tutoring. I have experience across all exam boards, including AQA, OCR and Edexcel. On top of this, I have experience as an AQA GCSE and A Level Psychology examiner.
Having been a tutor for a few years it is clear that some students really need one to one support on certain areas of weakness. My approach includes creating a personalised plan, with challenging but also achievable goals. I wish to support your child in tackling the challenges head on, trying different techniques to suit their needs.
