Information About Roberta - Wanaka tutor

Personal Description:

I am passionate about working with people to achieve their dreams. One of the reasons I started a career in psychology is because I love helping people. It can be tough breaking into the psychology industry. So as well as tutoring, I can share real life experience/offer advice for people who are unsure about their career path.

I have almost a decade of experience working in psychology. I have worked in prisons, care homes, children's homes, addiction treatment centres and NHS services. I am a fully qualified cognitive behavioural therapist, specialising in trauma and addiction. I have also worked with many people who have additional needs, autism spectrum conditions and ADHD.

Outside of work, my passions include hiking, yoga, skiing and baking. I love learning new things, so I often find myself immersed in a history/science podcast or documentary!

Tutoring Experience:

I have several years experience delivering psychology training to healthcare workers from a variety of backgrounds. I also have several years experience delivering psych-education to young people.

Tutoring Approach:

I offer a personalised approach to teaching, ensuring you learn in the way that you find most comfortable. Learning should be fun and motivating. There is no such thing as a silly question!

Psychology is a fascinating subject, but it can be a challenging one too! Sometimes we all need a little boost to help us reach our potential. Whatever you are stuck on (be it research skills, academic writing, remembering names/dates of studies or a particular theory you can't get your head around), I have the skills and resources to work with you to overcome the sticking points and get back to enjoying psychology!
