I aim to prepare students for exams by working with the individual student and preparing a study plan. I provide a set of questions that can be tailored to the students strengths and areas of improvement, and go through how to complete these questions during the session. I also provide exam preparation, where we can do mock exams that are time limited to simulate and prepare for exam conditions. I find this has a very large benefit in maintaining consistency of grades from revision to in person exams. I also explore questions that students have for the course content that they feel uncomfortable asking in class, as it appears to be the case students benefit much more from 1-1 tutoring as the questions they have are not rushed and can be explained at their own pace. With nearing completion of a BSc in Psychology, I have a good understanding of educational techniques which can be utilised to tutor a broad range of subjects. I have had one year experience of tutoring this subject both in person and remotely, and therefore have a grasped effective time management and structure for tutoring sessions. With being a final year student, I have the knowledge and understanding of the course to tutor those to obtain their qualification.
