Outside of teaching, I love outdoor sports, with my favourite being surfing.

My classes are always fun and energetic. I am patient with each student, and would love to find out what your favourite learning style is, so that I can give you the best experience whilst learning different aspects of Psychology with me.

Tutoring Experience

I have 3 years experience of working within a mental health health setting with both adolescents and adults, with my current role working therapeutically with psychosis and Schizophrenia patients in hospital.

I have also worked with students to improve their English, interview skills and presentation giving skills for over 3 years. The skills I teach will be very beneficial for someone studying/ hoping to study psychology at GCSE, A-level and University degree level.
