With a BSc in Psychology, MSc in Applied Clinical Psychology, and PhD in Psychological Medicine, I have the knowledge and expertise to adapt my teaching style to the students favoured learning approach to foster confidence, engagement, and enjoyment!

I began teaching and supervising learning when I worked as a nanny. This included providing support with homework, Kumon, and exam revision, for children and adolescents. After this point, my teaching experience comes mainly from my work with BSc Psychology undergraduate students at Kings College London and University of London, where I am a seminar leader and ad-hoc lecturer for 5+ modules (e.g., biological and cognitive psychology). I have marked >1000 summative coursework submissions from first-, second-, and third-year students. Therefore, I am well equipped to help GSCE, A-Level, and University students better understand what the essay or exam question is asking and to provide a guide on presenting an answer in a clear, structured, and convincing way. Having gained an A* at Psychology A-Level myself, I am able to unpick some of the trickier material with students and to break it down in a way that makes sense for each individual student. Together we can devise ways to commit this information to memory in preparation for exams. As I have supervised two Integrated BSc Medicine students to develop, conduct, and analyse data for their dissertation project, I am able to support more research-focused projects. Lastly, given that I teach international students completing a remote BSc Psychology course, I am confident in producing learning materials for students with varying English language abilities.
