A True Partnership in Your Child's Psychology Journey
Imagine a tutor who partners with your child, taking the time to understand exactly where they get stuck with complex topics like biopsychology or research methods. It’s not just about reciting facts; it’s about creating those ‘aha!’ moments where a tricky concept finally clicks into place. This is where real confidence begins to grow, session by session.
Together, they’ll work through challenging essay questions, breaking down how to build a powerful argument and analyse evidence critically – the very skills needed for those top A-Level grades. Each lesson is shaped around your child’s specific needs, whether that’s strengthening their grasp of attachment theory or mastering statistical analysis. It’s a completely personal approach.
And this all happens online, from your home in Plymouth. No travel, no stress. It means your child can learn from a top Psychology specialist from anywhere in the UK, fitting lessons perfectly around your family’s schedule. It’s about getting the absolute best support, made simple.

Simon is a brilliant tutor. My daughter can’t wait for lessons with him. He is helping her out with A level psychology, year 12.
He knows curriculum very well, understands the course expectations and marking system. His lessons are very interesting and he appears very professional.
My daughter missed a great deal of school due to her sickness and yet she scored A* for each psychology assessment/mock since Simon started tutoring her. Thank you Simon!
