About
I am a very experienced psychology A level teacher having worked in schools and colleges for over 20 years. I have now also been a tutor for 10 years and am driven by my love for my subject.

I believe the relationship between student and tutor is of utmost importance and I treat each student as an individual with unique learning needs to ensure their success. I looking forward to working with you and helping you to achieve your potential.

Reviews from First Tutors
Imported from Ms Sally'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.

Sally has been really helpful helping my daughter who was really struggling to grasp the subject. She has been patient and kind, and taken time to get to know my daughter and how her brain works. My daughter’s grades went from a D to a B in her final A-level exam. Would definitely work with Sally again.
Ms Sally replied
Thank you so much Helen. I so enjoyed working with Maddy and wish her the best for her future!

Sally is an absolutely fantastic and highly supportive tutor, who is understandably in high demand. She tutored my daughter in A Level Psychology during her U6 year. Sally’s insightful and patient tuition helped my daughter build her confidence in the subject and develop the necessary foundations, refine her exam and essay technique and ultimately showcase her ability. She enjoyed every lesson and achieved a Grade A. Thanks so much Sally!

Sally has been an excellent A level Psycology tutor/teacher for my homeschooled son. She was a calm and consistent teacher and he has enjoyed learning with her and was thoroughly prepared for his exams. I would highly recommend, a very good tutor.

Sally's help during the preparation for the A level Psychology exam was the key to my daughter's success, who is now at university studying Psychology. In just a few months, my daughter improved her results by two grades! Sally is amazing as a tutor and her knowledge and an ability to teach is outstanding.
Ms Sally replied

Sally has tutored my daughter for A level psychology on line throughout year 13. She is professional and has developed a good relationship that has allowed my daughter to make good progress. She obviously is very familiar with the course content and exam questions. My daughter suffers from anxiety and was getting poor marks in year 12. Sally's support gave her the confidence to feel she can achieve well. Fingers crossed for the results. I would definitely recommend her as a tutor.
Ms Sally replied
Thanks so much Sally. It was a pleasure to help Rosie and see her growing in confidence. Good luck for the final exam!

Sally took my daughter for a few lessons to help her with a summer project and presentation and a little bit of first year A level revision. She helped my daughter immensely, she made everything so much more simple and easier to understand giving my daughter so much more confidence in psychology before starting her second year of A levels. Thanks Sally!
Ms Sally replied
Thanks Louise. Im so pleased I was able to help and maybe look forward to helping your daughter again in the future.

Sally is an excellent tutor. In addition to her thorough subject knowledge she is a supportive, kind and compassionate person who really understands teenagers. My daughter was in the second term of Year 12 in a new school, borderline failing in internal tests until she started having sessions with Sally in April 2021. Subsequently, with Sally's help, she improved to an A* in one term for her Year 12 exams, maintained this level and am delighted to say achieved A* for her A level last week. I am so grateful to Sally as her teaching approach gave my daughter confidence and also transformed her engagement in her other two subjects in which she did equally well.
Ms Sally replied
Thanks so much Martine. I was so pleased to be able to support Celia. She was an absolute delight to teach and I am so excited she really achieved her potential. I am sure she will succeed in everything she puts her mind to in the future.

I cannot praise Sally enough. Ben was struggling with Psychology A Level at the end of the first year and we wanted some help just to get him through it. We got so much more than that. Sally is a very experienced and professional teacher. She not only helped him to understand each section of the course, but she somehow managed to also instil enthusiasm and a passion for the subject. He got an A grade and is now off to Uni to study psychology!
Ms Sally replied
Thank you so much Paul. I so enjoyed instilling in Ben the passion I have for psychology! I wish him all the best and dont hesitate to contact me again if he needs any support.

Sally has tutored my son for just over a year in preparation for A' Level Psychology. Sally has reinforced his understanding, worked on his exam technique and helped him to revise for the exams. Sally is very experienced, understands the exam syllabus and has been able to gently challenge and nudge him in the right direction. My son has really enjoyed working with Sally and feels that his weekly sessions have helped to grow his knowledge, confidence and exam technique. Sally is very easy to communicate with and always reliable. Thank you for all your support Sally.

Sally has been a great tutor for my daughter and has helped her catchup with her psychology lessons as she was quite behind due to the pandemic. My daughter has learnt a lot, enjoyed her lessons, managed to catchup with her subject and is also confident now. We had Sally for about 6 months and every lesson has made a difference. Great communication throughput this period. Thank you Sally

I did A level Psychology and I can say that Sally has been a great help. I started of with a very low grade but improved to a much better one thanks to her. I gained much more confidence in this subject. Many thanks for the help.

Sally has been an absolute God send! My daughter was really struggling with Alevel Psychology and was nearing the end of year with not very much knowledge(due to poor teachings at her current sixth form) and aa a result had very low self esteem as a learner. After much searching and researching tutors we found Sally and I am extremely pleased ro report that my daughter is now achieving much higher grades and is far more knowledgeable, confident and competent in this topic. Sally has been absolutely amazing! My daughter has gone from getting Ungraded marks to achieving Bs in under a year. You will not be disappointed with Sally. She is very knowledgeable and provides both student and parents with feedback. She has also hosted a few revision days which my daughter has found extremely helpful. I cannot recommend Sally enough! You will not regret it! *Update* My daughter recieved her results today and I am extremley pleased to report that she got her firm choice University at a prestigious University ranking both highly as a University and for her chosen subject, Psychology, nationally.

I can highly recommend Sally for A level Psychology. She is an excellent, kind and patient teacher. My son had struggled through the first year of his A Level so we found Sally and it all Improved immediately. He is now well prepared for his A Level & Sally’s hard work and excellent teaching has shown in his mock exam results.
Ms Sally replied
Thanks so much Sam for your positive feedback. I have very much enjoyed working with Patrick and wish him well for the future.
