About Me

MY TEACHING STYLE
I have a flexible teaching style and can cover a range of subjects. Contact me if you have any questions or to book a free trial lesson. I can help you to complete project work, prepare for exams, or improve your understanding of course materials. I will help you to build your confidence and understanding by going at your pace and moving forward in a methodical way. This includes setting clear targets, recapping previous lessons and breaking down difficult topics into understandable chunks.

FREE TRIAL LESSON
I can offer you a free 30 minute lesson so that I can introduce myself and you can tell me about your work. We can also use this time to plan future lessons.

AVAILABILITY
I am available most days of the week in the morning, afternoon and evening. My schedule changes regularly so please contact me with your inquiry. If you can arrange lessons further in advance then I can offer more flexibility. I can also give you a discounted price when booking multiple lessons in advance.

PRICES & DISCOUNTS
My prices are per hour. The price will depend on the subject and level. I can give a discount for long-term bookings and advanced bookings, or if you need several intensive lessons over a short-period of time.

IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS – Send me a message. I am usually quick to respond.

Tutor Experience

I have taught undergraduate psychology and social sciences students at Coventry University (UK) including seminars and computer labs on research methods and data analysis. As part of this job I marked academic coursework and helped students to prepare for exams. I have also taught undergraduates, postgraduates, PhD students and researchers as a private tutor.

I’ve delivered training to professional teams in the workplace, mostly in the use of various software packages. I have also taught groups of children and young adults in private schools and developed my own lesson plans and teaching materials.

In total, I have more than 2000+ hours of group teaching experience, and I have tutored more than 200 one-to-one students and adult learners, both online and in person.

I am happy to answer any questions about my experience and the subjects I teach.
Please contact me to arrange a free meeting and to find out if I am the right tutor for you.

Topic Expertise

TEACHING SUBJECTS

I teach quantitative/qualitative research methods, data analysis, psychology (including clinical & forensic), report writing, literature reviewing, data visualization, social sciences, and design subjects (including graphic, product & interactive). I can help you to improve your skills and knowledge in any of these subject areas, and can help you to revise and prepare for exams.

I teach A-Level Psychology & Biology, and have experience working with individual students and groups of all ages. I teach AQA, OCR and Edexcel Psychology, and can also teach international students or students who are struggling with specific topics and exam skills.

I can work with you to complete coursework, dissertations or professional projects. I also provide proofreading and constructive feedback to help improve your work.

RESEARCH EXPERIENCE

I have a Master’s degree in Research Methods and have taught this subject at undergraduate and postgraduate level, including with PhD students and professionals. I have worked as a researcher on several academic projects at UK universities. I worked as a policy researcher for multiple local councils and the UK Department for Education. In these jobs I have used quantitative and qualitative methods to understand topics related to education, healthcare, mental health, forensic and clinical psychology.

PRACTICAL EXPERIENCE

In addition to teaching, I have worked in private and NHS mental healthcare roles, including in clinical and forensic psychology. I have worked closely with people diagnosed with psychosis, anxiety, depression, personality disorders, ASD and learning disabilities.

I have led therapy groups and worked as a one-to-one therapist focusing on addictive behaviors and criminal offending. I’ve conducted research in clinical and non-clinical settings, as well as via online platforms. I’ve conducted semi-structured interviews, facilitated focus groups, designed and collected surveys, recruited research participants, completed ethical applications and worked across various multi-disciplinary teams.

Client Reviews

Nathan has been incredibly helpful with my project. He’s a great, patient tutor who explains things clearly and supports you throughout the process. I would highly recommend him.

- Psychology

Having obtained support from Nathan for my SPSS exam, as part of my MSc, I found his teaching and support absolutely fantastic. He is not only very knowledgeable in SPSS, he is also very experienced in its hands on application. His teaching style is impeccable and despite the fact that I was initially completely overwhelmed with SPSS, a mature student and very bad with tech, he was extremely patient with me at every step of the way. He structured every lesson with my needs and pace in mind and gave me the confidence, very early on, that I could pass my exam, despite the fact that I failed at my first attempt (before acquiring his support). I passed my exam thanks to Nathan and still have the confidence that I can use SPSS again for my dissertation later on in the academic year. I highly recommend Nathan, without any hesitation and rate the maxium 5 stars for every lesson and interaction with him.
