Psychology can feel overwhelming: there is a LOT of theory, names, frameworks, and it can sometimes feel like you are just memorising without actually understanding. My lessons are designed to change that.

I usually start our first session by having a conversation. I want to know what you are struggling with, what your goals are, whether you have an exam coming up or an assignment due, and how you have been taught so far. That tells me a lot about what you need, and I build from there.

My teaching style is conversational and example-driven. I find that psychology clicks best when it is connected to real life, so I use a lot of everyday examples, case studies, and analogies to make abstract concepts feel concrete and memorable. If you are working through something like cognitive behavioural therapy or research methodology or psychopathology, I will walk you through the concept, check your understanding, and then help you apply it, because understanding something and being able to use it in an exam or an essay are two different skills, and I work on both.

I also pay close attention to how you think. If I notice you are approaching a concept from the wrong angle, I will gently redirect rather than just correcting you, I want you to develop the ability to reason through problems yourself, not just rely on me to give you answers. That is the difference between getting through one exam and actually building a foundation that serves you throughout your degree.

In terms of experience, I taught seminar-style classes and delivered academic presentations as part of my MSc programme at IIPR, where I ranked first in my cohort across both years. I have strong conceptual knowledge across a wide range of psychology topics, from research methods and statistics to clinical psychology, psychopathology, consciousness, and psychotherapy. I also have a background in English Literature and Journalism, which means I can help you with academic writing, structuring arguments, and expressing ideas clearly , skills that matter just as much as content knowledge when it comes to assignments and examinations.

I am genuinely patient. I do not move on until you are ready, and I will explain the same concept ten different ways if that is what it takes. I want you to leave each session feeling clearer and more confident than when you came in, and if you ever feel lost between sessions, I am reachable."
