About
Are you looking for an online tutor for AQA AS/A level Psychology?
I have been teaching and tutoring since 2009, was made a Head of Psychology in 2013, and have an excellent record of getting the best from my students, with the majority exceeding their target grades. I also have multiple years experience examining A level Psychology, & now tutor full time.
My lessons are personalised to the needs of the student. For example, if they have exams coming up soon I can provide condensed content revision, as well as exam skills practice.
Or if they’ve struggled with a particular topic (or missed a lot of lessons for it) then I can teach it at a pace they’re comfortable with, using a variety of techniques including discussion, worksheets and exam questions.
I have taught AQA Psychology (AS and A level) for 17 years so have excellent knowledge of the specification and a huge bank of resources I can share. I have used the “green haired boy” and "pink haired girl" textbooks with my own students, so if they are familiar with those then I’ll discuss the specific studies and evaluation issues that they have already been taught at school.
As a senior examiner, I know exactly how to answer each type of exam question and can teach them to quickly identify what is needed and how to make the most of their time in the exam. I can also help students avoid the common mistakes which cost them marks.
My lessons take place online via Zoom and my 1-to-1 prices are as follows:
Weekday evenings: £60 per hour
Weekday daytimes: Discounted rate of £50 per hour
Weekends: Premium rate of £80 per hour.
If you’re interested then please message me to discuss my availability or to book a free chat.

Reviews from First Tutors
Imported from Lauren A.'s First Tutors profile before the site went dark. Shown separately from Tutorperch reviews — today they don't feed this tutor's Tutorperch rating or ranking.
How we verify these
Each imported review went through admin review. The tutor proved ownership of the First Tutors profile via one of two paths:
- Photo match. The First Tutors avatar matched the tutor's identity-verified Tutorperch photo, confirmed by admin.
- Cryptographic email check. The tutor uploaded an original First Tutors email (.eml). We verified the DKIM signature against First Tutors' signing keys and cross-checked the embedded tutor ID against the claimed profile.
The review text is the original reviewer's own words, quoted as-is. We verified the tutor's ownership of the profile, not the truth of what each individual reviewer wrote.

Tim
I was looking for someone with good experience of teaching the curriculum, psychology and the exam process. Lauren proved to be an excellent choice with updates to me after each session, homework for son to do and great timekeeping. Son confirms that she knows her stuff, brings it into the real world and can explain clearly how to get the most out of an exam answer. A friendly but firm attitude, along with flexibility when needed and options for further lessons she has proven to be a good choice. I would highly recommend her.
