Applying and Understanding APA (6th) Format and Referencing for Undergraduate Psychology Students

Von 27.26 Fr /Std

Starting out at university is difficult enough - your work is suddenly anticipated to be of a stratospheric standard while you are still settling in to a new way of life. You're affronted with new depths to your chosen field that you hadn't accounted for - and to make matters worse, everything has to be formatted in a new (to you) style called APA format.

APA formatting is a writing style and standard developed by the American Psychology Association, and many undergraduate psychology courses require all written coursework to be presented in this style; whether it be a scientific report or a long-form essay. Together we will spend these sessions breaking down exactly what the APA format is, and how to ensure all of your written work meets those standards. Throughout our sessions, we will cover how to use APA-style referencing, how to format our psychological reports (both Quantitative and Qualitative) via the use of appropriate headings and sub-headings, how to present statistics, and more.

I am a recent BSc Psychology graduate holding a first-class degree. I achieved this by ensuring my academic writing style and grasp of the APA format was of a high standard. I look forward to sharing what I've learnt with you!

Understanding Psychology - for GCSE, A-level, or first-year university students

25.08 Fr /Std

I am a Psychology graduate holding a first-class honors degree. I have been studying Psychology for the past five years; from A-level up to my university graduation. I am passionate about the Renaissance nature of Psychology; all of the different topics and areas you have to learn about to become a Psychologist - but this also makes Psychology a difficult subject to master.

Throughout our lessons, you can guide me through the exact topics you would like to cover. For example, you might be a whizz at social psychology but totally stuck in cognitive or child psychology, and so I can target my lessons to your exact needs. Together we will go through topics within psychology as well as tackling tasks and activities together.

English Language GCSE - Any Exam Board, either tier!

25.08 Fr /Std

I am a TEFL-qualified English teacher with extensive experience teaching the English Language GCSE online. Throughout our lessons we will tackle exam-style questions together, using tips and tricks I have developed to answer the questions in the most efficient way possible. I will share techniques such as paragraph structures (like PEAR and PEEL), creative writing structuring techniques, and more.
For the most part, my lessons are quite hands-on - we will spend a lot of time dealing with activities and tasks together so you get plenty of real experience of completing the exam - but I am also unafraid of tackling explanations of tricky topics like grammar rules and linguistic devices.

Doctor in Psychology and Cognitive Neuroscience, with a Master 2 in Biology and a Master 2 Pro in Science Communication, I teach my courses on scientific methodology and help writing research papers / TER / thesis manuscripts / internship reports. I intervene indeed on each stage of writing the manuscript by scrupulously respecting the guidelines, editorial requirements, and drafting standards (APA standards in psychology in particular). My courses and proofreading / corrections are aimed at a wide range of university courses (students from a curriculum in psychology, neuroscience, biology, sociology, medicine, international trade, marketing etc.).
In the framework of doctoral or post-doctoral research projects or of Master thesis (1 and 2), I also propose an aid to the writing of research memory in the format (or not) of scientific articles published in scientific journals international. My classes are customized to better meet the expectations of each student. I also offer help in the statistical analysis of experimental data, with a rigorous methodology adapted to your research project. For statistical help, I usually use specific professional software (Minitab type, SPSS, Statistica, Jamovi, Jasp etc.), to conduct the most rigorous statistical analysis of experimental data.

Teaching method: identification of needs and problems, identification of gaps in manuscript writing, participation in scientific reflection, suggestion of innovative methodological tools adapted to the scientific process, optimization of bibliographic research with tools adapted thematic research, coaching & confidence building, specific teaching tools, student involvement, rigorous follow-up, leading advice and recommendations. From my training in psychology, I take into account this essential component during my courses to adapt to the student, identify its shortcomings and thus propose an effective methodology to optimize its memo (written and or at the oral defense).

My teaching method emphasizes the interaction between the student and the teacher with a methodology fully adapted to the student's needs and aptitudes. Course flow

I also offer coaching for the preparation of exams, orals with powerpoint support and help with resume writing, cover letters etc.

Other places of education: CNRS, Ecole Polytechnique, University of Strasbourg, ESSEC Business School, IONIS UP, ISTH, University of Paris 8 and European School of Advanced Studies in Paris, Institut Tocqueville in Paris.

We go through the workings of the attention mechanism, a neurological process explained in an easy way. Afterwards we look at Creativity itself and how those processes of "attention" or "focus" contribute to creativity. We look at the problems as well as solutions. Exercises and Homework are an option. The course can be extended into Visual literacy, Storytelling and philosophy of the Image.

Blockchain technology is a short term with an enormous depth of meaning. Decentralized, censorship and manipulation-resistant and tamper-proof networks are the future of many everyday processes and that already today, even if most of them may not be aware of it.

Using the example of Bitcoin, this course is intended to illustrate why blockchain has enormous disruptive potential for many important fields of application in everyday life and why it will no longer be a part of our lives in the future. In terms of content, it should be explained on a logical and predominantly non-technical level how the security of a blockchain network is created, maintained and why manipulation is not possible here - which explains the use and importance of this technology.

After evaluating the levels and objectives of each student, I will put in place a plan with the objectives to be achieved at each session. I have a Bachelor's degree in English and pedagogy/psychology, so I have sufficient knowledge to give support courses up to Bachelor's level.

Welcome!
Unfortunately, the following short lecture cannot convey one thing: my joy in people and in helping them. Instead, I give an overview of my skills and methodology. Briefly and humorously summarized:
Motivation * (understanding + solution recipes) = success
Thank you for taking the time to visit. My name is Andreas, a former mechanical engineer and qualified high school teacher with a teaching diploma. Apart from teaching young people at Kanti, I have also helped young adults on their educational path as a full-time teacher at a vocational school and at university.
In total I have taught 5 years in public schools and 15+ years of tutoring. It was mainly about areas from MINT (math, physics, ...). Unusual combination but true: I am very interested in languages and have lived in both the US and Mexico, so I help some students with English and Spanish.
I'm currently taking a break from the school system and taking time for the other important things in life: family and health. I help a few selected students on their way to the leading universities, with difficult subjects or complex tasks such as statistical evaluations for the doctorate.
My students have passed their high school diploma (BM, etc.) with great success and gained access to selective subjects such as law and medicine. I have specialized in explaining exactly what is important for understanding: practical solutions and strategies for doing well in exams. My students learn exactly the shortcuts to success in a fraction of the time.

Hi there,
I'm Annika and I studied psychology in Heidelberg and Cambridge.
Tutoring has been my great passion for over 10 years, with a focus on mathematics and languages as well as statistics and psychology. Together with my tutoring students, I will close gaps in the material in order to prepare my students specifically for the work ahead. My goal is to convey the fun of learning to you/your children and I would like to help you/your children to approach homework, exams, high school and university exams with motivation.
I would be very happy to receive your message.

I provide sustainable and individually tailored psychology tutoring, offer psychological learning support, and teach the understanding and application of learning methods. Through my many years of experience teaching students of all ages and learning levels, as well as a wide range of personalities, I know how to convey learning material in an understandable, motivating, and structured way, and how to overcome personal barriers to learning.
As a doctoral student with a solid psychological background, I quickly recognize where support in understanding is needed and respond specifically and sensitively to the needs of each student.
Whether it's tutoring, schoolwork, exam preparation, or life-oriented enrichment for adults – my lessons not only promote understanding, but also the joy of learning and lasting skills.
