Umair C
Experienced Psychology tutor
I have a proven track record of academic success, including an A* in Psychology and A’s in Biology and Chemistry. Unlike traditional tutors, I’ve navigated through the same pressures, deadlines and expectations you’re dealing with. Where I add real value is mastering examiner tricks and teaching clear, structured techniques instead of vague classroom methods. I understand that Psychology is one of the most content based subjects out there, and understand very well that time must be used efficiently. My tutoring sessions therefore are highly personalised and teaches all the necessary skills e.g. ...

Alexandra J
Patient Psychology tutor
I am originally from Toronto, Canada but now work as a researcher at the University of Edinburgh.My style of teaching is flexible in that it would be planned based on the needs of the student and ultimately my lessons would be student-led. Thus, while I would make a lesson plan, it would be amenable to change based on the needs and requests of the student. I am calm, patient and encouraging in my approach to teaching, so am happy to go at whatever pace best suits the student.   I have an extensive knowledge and experience of teaching varying levels of academic writing reading from primary school ...

Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child has good predicted grades from Harton Academy. How can a tutor help them stand out for a competitive course at Newcastle University?

That's a great question, and a common concern for parents of high-achieving students. A specialist tutor can focus on the skills that go beyond the A-Level syllabus. They can introduce university-level critical analysis, help your child articulate complex arguments in essays, and explore psychological research in greater depth, building the intellectual confidence that really shines through in personal statements and interviews.

How does online tutoring complement the A-Level teaching at schools like St Wilfrid's in South Shields?

We see tutoring as a partnership with school. Whilst teachers in great local sixth forms provide an excellent foundation, a one-to-one tutor has the time to dive deeper into areas your child finds tricky or fascinating. They can tailor sessions to reinforce classroom learning and then stretch their thinking further, ensuring they have a truly robust understanding of the subject.

Are your tutors just based in the North East? I'm worried about finding a real specialist for my child in South Shields.

This is the brilliant thing about online tutoring! Because our tutors are based all across the UK, your child in South Shields isn't limited to whoever is local. They can connect with a Psychology specialist from London, a university researcher from Manchester, or a PhD candidate from Edinburgh. It gives you access to a huge range of expertise.

Is online tutoring as effective as in-person for a discussion-based subject like Psychology?

Absolutely. Our online classroom is designed for interactive learning, with features like a digital whiteboard perfect for mapping out theories or planning essays together. The focused, one-to-one environment is ideal for the deep discussions Psychology requires, allowing students to build confidence and explore ideas without classroom distractions.

What happens if my child doesn't click with their first Psychology tutor?

We know that the right personal connection is key to great learning. That's why we have our first lesson guarantee. If for any reason you feel the first tutor isn't the perfect match, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover the cost of your first session with a new tutor.

How are your Psychology tutors vetted?

We're incredibly selective because we know how much trust you're placing in us. We accept only 1 in 8 tutors who apply. Every tutor is interviewed by a subject specialist, undergoes identity and background checks, and we personally review their qualifications and tutoring experience.

How much do online Psychology tutors cost?

Our tutors set their own hourly rates, typically starting from around £20 per hour, based on their experience and qualifications. You can easily filter by price when you search, so you can find a brilliant tutor who fits your family's budget.

Can we get help with specific A-Level Psychology topics, like research methods?

Yes, completely. That's the beauty of one-to-one tutoring. If your child needs to focus specifically on the complexities of research methods, biopsychology, or essay technique, the tutor can build a series of lessons dedicated entirely to that area, ensuring they feel confident and prepared.

My family has a really busy schedule. How flexible are the lessons?

Our tutors work around you. You can see each tutor's availability on their profile and arrange sessions for evenings, weekends, or whenever suits your family best. Because it's all online from your home in South Shields, you save on travel time too, making it much easier to fit into a packed week.

Beyond Psychology, what other subjects do you offer?

We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects! So, if your child wanted to get help with their maths A-Level, learn to code, pick up a new language, or even take guitar lessons, you can find expert online tutors for almost any interest or academic need.

What technology do we need for an online lesson?

It's very simple. All you need is a laptop or computer with a webcam and microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our bespoke online classroom runs directly in your web browser, so there's no special software to download.

How much do online Psychology tutors cost?

Tutors provide feedback after each session, and you can message them anytime through the platform. The biggest sign, though, is often the change you'll see in your child – in their confidence when talking about their subject, their willingness to tackle homework, and the way they start to enjoy the challenge of learning.
