Kathryn

I have a first class honors degree (BSc) in Psychology from the University of London, a masters (MSc) in 'Early Intervention in Psychosis' from King's College, London and a PhD in Psychiatric Epidemiology from the Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland.

I am able to help with writing skills, essay structure, study skills and proofread assignments and dissertations whilst providing guidance on how to think critically when answering research questions.

I have worked on a number of broad topic areas, including mental health, psychology, social care and education.

Tutoring Experience

I have worked in social services with young people aged 16-18, guiding them with their college work and helping with their CV writing skills in order for them to gain employment. I have worked abroad teaching English as a foreign language in Sri Lanka and I have experience teaching A Level Psychology in a tutorial centre in Dublin. During my PhD, I supervised a medical student during her Psychiatry Research project.

I have helped numerous students with dissertation structure, developing research questions and how to structure essays. I proofread assignments, providing insight and feedback on which sections need developing to meet the brief.

I have previously worked as a Senior Researcher in Health Policy and in the prison space, working on mixed-methods research projects. I can help with literature reviews, rapid evidence assessments, qualitative and quantitative research.

Please get in touch if you have any questions.

Tutoring Approach

I am a patient person, who is able to challenge individuals with their learning in a supportive way
