Private English and Psychology Tuition in Penryn

I am a BSc Psychology student at UCL - awaiting my final year results. I enjoy reading and writing poems in my spare time, as well as volunteering.

I offer English tutoring services for young adults in school years 7-11, to improve writing, reading and speaking skills. I also offer casual adult learner sessions.

With regards to Psychology tutoring services, I offer support for students studying GCSE and A-Level Psychology, as well as casual adult learners who wish to simply learn more about topics!

I will consider concessionary rates in certain circumstances, please just reach out to me and I'll see what I can do! I am passionate that everyone should have the opportunity to access high quality and individualised learning. I believe that education and the skill of thinking critically and creatively is a key to further opportunities. I'm looking forward to hearing from you!

Tutoring Experience

I have officially tutored two English GCSE students previously, helping them to develop their skills. Both students achieved their goals.

I also tutored my Mum in English Language GCSE, she achieved a grade B. It was a pleasure to share tips, help her practise and to see her confidence continue to grow as she became more proficient in her writing skills.
I will always treasure seeing her smile when she got her results!

Tutoring Approach

I ultimately aim to instill a love of English/Psychology, a love of learning and a love for the challenge that education brings. I hope interest in the subject areas continue throughout their life. However, I understand that for some people, studying for exams is sometimes boring and stressful. In my lessons, I try to incorporate a range of different types of focused activities to ensure that the young adult enjoys the sessions and also continues to improve their skills. Practising exam questions is essential and I offer extensive support for this.
