I am a college psychology instructor who loves teaching and truly believes learning can be fun. I think true learning isn't about memorizing somebody else's understanding of information, but instead working with a topic to come to your own personal understanding of it.
I believe by working with any student one on one, we together can relate topics to different things from the student's own experience and life, as well as that of those around them and/or those they have seen or read about...
I am a college psychology instructor who loves teaching and truly believes learning can be fun. I think true learning isn't about memorizing somebody else's understanding of information, but instead working with a topic to come to your own personal understanding of it.
I believe by working with any student one on one, we together can relate topics to different things from the student's own experience and life, as well as that of those around them and/or those they have seen or read about through tv, books, and movies. By getting students to think about topics this way, they process the information in a way that leads to genuine understanding rather than superficial learning/memorizing, which leads to greater comprehension, retention, and overall performance on related exams and assignments.
With my experience and education in the field of Psychology, I believe my biggest strengths lie in my ability to communicate, connect with, understand, and have patience with the students I work with. I want learning to be a positive experience so as to inspire more learning, growth, and curiosity.
I have both a bachelors and masters degree, as well as teaching, research, and clinical experience working with a variety of ages and populations in the field of psychology.
I promise you we can find a way to understand and learn the topics you are struggling with. Let me know if you would like my help and let's schedule a lesson!
