I did my MSc in Psychology of Education at the Institute of Education, University of London (IOE), and graduated with a Distinction. Previously, I did my undergraduate studies in Psychology at University of York, where I graduated with a first-class honours.

I am happy to tutor over Skype and email.

Tutoring Experience

I have advised numerous students with their research dissertations and essays, and they have consistently done well. My ex-students have included both undergraduate and postgraduate students from (this is a non-exhaustive list):
- Oxford University
- University College London
- Kings College London
- University of Sussex
- University of Manchester
- City University London

I was a research and teaching assistant for faculty members in both the Education department and the Psychology department during my undergraduate years. Hence, I am capable at data analysis and interpretation using SPSS (a statistical software). I am also competent at providing effective feedback and proofreading for essays in Psychology at the undergraduate and postgraduate level. I am also a trained teacher.

Tutoring Approach

I write well and am capable of advising you on how to take your work (be it your essay, dissertation or field research work) to a higher level. This will include advice on how to do an effective literature review, how to use research papers to support your arguments, proofreading, editing/drafting, and providing feedback on essay drafts.

I have also advised on and helped to proofread entrance essays and personal statements for psychology undergraduate and postgraduate courses as well, and would be happy to assist you in crafting a compelling narrative for your entrance essays and personal statements.
