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

Van 29.7 € /h

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

27.33 € /h

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!

27.33 € /h

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.

As a previous IGCSE & IB student graduate I understand the stress and difficulty in preparing for both the Mid-terms and End of year exams. The curriculum provided for both subjects will be based on deconstructing the theory into smaller sections which are then each focused on key vocabulary and factual information. Additionally, for each subject a clear essay structure for exams will be outlined and practised based on IGCSE & IB grading criteria. Dependent on how close the student is too their final or mid-term exams lessons will be personalized to improve on their limitations and conjointly a structured summary will be created to optimally succeed in their exams.

This is not a class, but an opportunity to discuss difficult situations in life. As a professional social worker I will provide you a listening ear, advise where possible and it's an opportunity to spar about certain situations. There will be no judgement and I'll be there to support you. I can't offer a one-size-fits-all solution, but this is meant to vent and to possibly see situations from a different perspective. This meeting is for everyone who just wants to talk! This meeting will be in English or Dutch, depends on the request, and online.

Dit is geen les, maar een mogelijkheid om lastige situaties in het leven te bespreken. Als een professionele sociaal werker zal ik je een luisterend oor bieden, adviseren waar mogelijk en is het een mogelijkheid om te sparren over bepaalde situaties. Er zal geen oordeel zijn en ik ben er om jou te ondersteunen. Ik kan geen kant en klare oplossing bieden, maar deze meeting is vooral bedoeld om even te ventileren en om mogelijk situaties vanuit een ander perspectief te bieden. Deze meeting is gewoon bedoeld voor iedereen die graag wil praten! De meeting zal in het Engels of Nederlands zijn, afhankelijk van de aanvraag, en online.

Reseach Methods in Psychology entail the different ways you can conduct a study or an experiment. There are several different methods which can be chosen from based on the type of study you want to conduct.
These methods have their advantages and disadvantages. Research methods essentially provide structure to your experiment and help you analyse and examine the procedure and make amends as and when required.

Why a lesson about mindset?
Mindset can take you anywhere!
what do you want as an individual, why and the long term of your why for you as an individual ?

I think it would be fun to activate people for a more positive outcome and awareness of their own mindset and change that they can make in their own lives from their own individual point of view

Self-Inquiry is a mindfulness-based healing method, ideal for people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, burnout and psychosomatic symptoms.

I love things that are simple, practical, and effective... something you should be able to explain to a 10-year-old. Self-Inquiry is a method for restoring and maintaining healthy balance — something that really should be taught in school. It is practical, straightforward, and profoundly effective.

The method is based on the principle that the signals we receive from the body are designed to guide us toward a happy, healthy, and long life. In spiritual traditions, this collection of signals is often called “the Inner Compass.”

Just like a small cut on your finger heals on its own when the right conditions are created, the body can also heal energetic, emotional, and mental blockages when we listen and support the process.

The body is constantly communicating with you — through pain, tension, pressure but also through feelings and emotions, love, inspiration, curiosity, and vitality. Even though the body is always trying to guide us toward happiness, many of us in the Western world have never learned how to listen to it or act in alignment with its signals.
So... back to basics!

From my own experience, I know how tempting it can be to search for happiness outside yourself while ignoring what the body is trying to tell you. Fifteen years ago, I ended up in a burnout — a very loud message from the body that it was time for rest and reflection.

The good news is: you don’t need to wait until things get that far.

During the sessions, you will learn:
- how to reconnect with yourself, your body, and the signals it gives you — and how to translate those signals into daily life
- how to live in alignment with your deepest truth, your personal boundaries, and your deeper longings

I will give you the tools to explore your inner world and support your own healing. And I will guide you through regular, facilitated Self-Inquiry sessions to help you deepen the process. The combination of personal practice and periodic guided sessions provides the best results.

Additional Information for Students

These are online sessions, so you will need:
- a computer or laptop with a camera
- a stable internet connection
- a notebook for taking notes

I am a dynamic and highly educated PhD student who possesses a strong ambition and academic drive. I take pleasure in assisting others in problem-solving and have gained extensive personal experience in achieving success in examinations. I aim to extend my support to more students, enabling them to excel in their academic endeavors.
My expertise lies in teaching Mathematics at the IGCSE and GCSE levels, catering to students aged 14-16. Additionally, I am well-versed in teaching Psychology at all levels, including University Masters.

I customize each tutoring session to meet the specific needs and preferences of the student. My approach emphasizes the development of effective exam techniques, ample practice, and the elimination of any apprehensions related to exam papers. By utilizing exams as tools to identify weak areas, I break down the subjects into individual topics, teaching the fundamentals and progressively building up to meet the standards required in exams.
