AP Psychology Tutoring. High School And College Level And General Homework Help
About
I am currently studying psychology at my university. I have been a teacher's assistant for two semesters and I am currently the lead tutor at my university's tutoring center and have tutored multitudes of students.
I love working with people and I am very flexible with time. My strengths in tutoring are my ability to rephrase things in a way you can understand, the use of real life examples, and fun jokes to really help solidify the material in a fun and engaging way.
I love being apart of the learning process and seeing people grow and become more confident in themselves and their abilities. Psychology is an amazing field to discover and I found my passion in it and I hope to inspire others to find theirs. If not through psychology, hopefully I can guide them to find theirs elsewhere.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
Ask them what they are most concerned about and we will start there. If they do not know where to start, I will just ask them what their assignment is and we will go through it together.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I am a psychology major and have been a teacher's assistant for one year, half of which as been a Lead TA position. I am currently the Lead tutor for psychology at my university's tutoring center and I am very familiar and comfortable with Intro to Psychology concepts as I have been through the class for three semesters. Once as a student and twice as a tutor/teacher's assistant.
What types of students have you worked with?
I have worked with students who love psychology and just love discussing the concepts and I have worked with students who hated the class and just needed to pass it. By being a friend and leader, both types of students have done fairly well.
What advice would you give a student looking to hire a teacher in your area of expertise?
Psychology is very abstract and concept based. It is an amazing field but can get very tricky. Be sure to hire someone who is able to rephrase things in several different ways so you can understand the best. No question is stupid.
What questions should students think through before talking to teachers about their needs?
Even if you aren't so sure of your own needs, ask anyway. Getting out of your own head and verbalizing what you need can help you think through it easier. Do not sit and ruminate, always ask for help and talk through it.
