Lucy Handford

I am a client centred tutor meaning I put my tutees at the heart of the lessons I teach. I adopt an individualised approach to ensure you are receiving support that is specific to your needs. We will focus on goal setting and creating targets to keep you motivated to achieve your goals.

I have a Bachelor's Degree and Master's Degree in Sport and Exercise Psychology and specialise in this subject. I can support you with your mindset in sport and help with exercise motivation and persistence. I can also support students currently studying these degrees to improve their coursework and exam preparation. As a former undergraduate and postgraduate student I have experienced the challenges of transitioning into a professional career. Therefore, I also teach key professional skills such as communication and how to effectively manage caseloads.

My passion lies in mental health and wellbeing so there is always room to discuss stress or and worries you are experiencing and how to overcome this. I can signpost you to further professional support if this is required. As a former student, I understand wellbeing can decrease around exams and coursework deadlines. Therefore, I can offer guidance around key exam skills and revision resources and techniques. I also offer organisational advice on managing deadlines and feeling more in control of your day to day tasks.

I have a sensitive and caring nature and strive to make my students feel comfortable and important. I aim to create an open environment where you feel relaxed and able to discuss your goals with me.
