Undergraduate Personal Statement Writing for your UCAS Application

Von 23.76 € /Std

Nothing about applying to university is easy or straight forward. Perhaps the biggest ask is the personal statement: somehow, you are expected to condense your life story and choices down into a single sheet of paper, to advertise yourself as a student to your chosen university/universities. During an already tumultuous period of your life, you are expected to somehow reflect adequately, sell yourself, and justify your life choices all at once in order to pursue your academic dreams.

When I applied to university, I received offers from all 5 of my choices (Manchester Metropolitan University, Glasgow Caledonian University, Salford University, University of Strathclyde, and the University of West Scotland). I'm now looking to help you with your university application process. During our sessions we can look at how to best tell your story in a way that makes sense to a university admissions team, how to structure your personal statement, the type of language that is appropriate to use, and quick and easy proofreading tips.

I look forward to hearing from you!

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

27.33 € /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.

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

29.7 € /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!

I offer an approach to writing that goes beyond the basic technical details. This is because when it comes to writing, I believe the personal is the most important. By talking to you about your experience of writing, I will help you realize your project to its fullest creative potential. Questions about your project will include: How do you plan it? What goes through your head when you sit down to start? What role does re-reading and editing play in your writing process? Opening up this space for exploration will allow you to then insert the appropriate technical details. In addition, if English is a foreign language, my ESL-teaching background should let us find the right language solutions when necessary.

I offer help with: Essays, Manuscripts, Poetry, Non-fiction/Prose, and Marketing Content.

I'm a graduate student of clinical psychology, have studied and tutored at multiple international universities, while on the other hand working with small editing and publication groups in NYC and Berlin, as well as recently putting out my own book of poems.

Musst Du in der nächsten Zeit einen Essay, eine Hausarbeit oder gar deine Bachelorarbeit abgeben?
Bist Du unsicher in der Angabe von direkten und indirekten Zitaten?
Brauchst Du Hilfe bei der professionellen Formatierung deines Dokuments?

Ich helfe Dir gerne bei diesen und ähnlichen Problemen bezüglich der Formatierung von Fußnoten und längeren Zitaten und wesentlichen Bestandteilen einer wissenschaftlichen Arbeit wie dem Inhaltsverzeichnis sowie dem Quellen- und Literaturverzeichnis. Am einfachsten lassen sich diese Dinge an einer bereits geschriebenen oder im Schreibprozess befindlichen Arbeit besprechen. Wir können über diese Themen natürlich aber auch gerne sprechen, wenn Du noch am Anfang stehst und Dich einfach schon mal informieren möchtest.

Gerne beantworte ich Dir auch Fragen zur sprachlichen Ebene Deiner Arbeit. Wir können in diesem Zusammenhang gemeinsam nach umgangssprachlichen Formulierungen, missverständlichen Formulierungen und zu langen Satzgebilden Ausschau halten. Voraussetzung hierfür ist natürlich, dass Du bereits etwas geschrieben hast.

While proofreading allows you to correct typos and possible stylistic errors, correction consists of reformulating sentences in more depth.

We can discuss together which approach is best for you.

In both cases, you will obtain a text that is pleasant to read and in excellent French, a guarantee of seriousness for your readers.

Don't underestimate the impact that proofreading or correction can have on your text!
