Joshua P.

4 Psychology lessons

She is a very nice and patient tutor who knows her Psychology information well. She can teach the concepts my professor taught in lectures in a way that is easy to understand and process. Since having her as my primary tutor for Psychology, I have been able to apply what she has taught me during our lessons in my assignments. As a result, I have been getting better grades and a deeper appreciation for Psychology. I recommend having her as your Psychology tutor.
Bruce A.

1 Psychology lesson

We went over many topics related to Psychology and Law, many references to cases of law and how they apply with psychology. Very helpful and appreciate all the knowledge that was bestowed during our session. Highly recommend for anyone that needs help with either Law or Psychology!
