A-Level Psychology Tuition for Private Candidates & Resit Students

Studying A-Level Psychology outside a traditional school or college gives you plenty of flexibility — but it can also mean working out for yourself what to learn, how much detail you need and whether your exam answers are actually hitting the assessment objectives.

I provide specialist online Psychology tuition for private candidates, resit students and home-educated learners, with support tailored to where you are in the course and what you need to achieve.

I’m a qualified teacher, former Head of Psychology and current AQA A-Level Psychology examiner, with extensive experience teaching and tutoring A-Level students.

Support That Fits Around You

You don’t need to be following exactly the same timetable as a school or college.

Tuition can be used for:

Full topic teaching and consolidation

Filling gaps from previous teaching

Structured support for independent study

AQA exam technique and question planning

AO1, AO2 and AO3 development

Essay structure and evaluation

Research Methods

Practice questions and examiner-informed feedback

Preparation for resits

Identifying why marks are being lost and how to improve them

Resitting A-Level Psychology?

If you’re resitting Psychology, starting again from page one usually isn’t the best use of your time.

We can use previous results, past papers and diagnostic work to identify where you’re actually losing marks — whether that’s knowledge, application, evaluation, Research Methods, timing or exam technique — and build your tuition around those areas.

Home-Educated or Studying Independently?

Independent study doesn’t have to mean doing everything alone.

I can provide structure and accountability alongside tuition, helping you plan what to cover and practise between lessons while keeping your study focused on the requirements of the specification and examinations.

Weekday daytime appointments are available
which can be particularly useful for home-educated and independent learners.

Tutors & Exams Learning Partner

Psychology Tutor Online is a Learning Partner with Tutors & Exams, a nationwide network of examination centres supporting private candidates, home-educated learners, distance-learning students and those taking resits.

Students receiving tuition through Psychology Tutor Online may be eligible for a 12.5% discount on standard examination-entry fees when applying before the relevant entry deadline.

Exam applications, payments and examination arrangements are made directly with Tutors & Exams. They can provide information about centre availability, fees, entry deadlines, access arrangements and specialist assessment requirements. Psychology Tutor Online provides tuition and academic guidance but does not administer examination entries or operate as an examination centre.

If you are planning to sit Psychology examinations as a private candidate, it is important to check that your chosen qualification, specification and any required components are available at a suitable centre before committing to the course.
