Perfect! My daughter has had a few sessions with Dr James now and the boost to her confidence and knowledge is evident already with her predicted grade after a mock exam going from a C to B, no doubt because of the techniques he has taught her. He is an excellent tutor and has a way of teaching that has helped my daughter so much even in such a short space of time. Highly recommended.

Perfect! Very supportive and cares about his tutees progress
My daughter Annah achieved an A today 18/08/22 in her A Level Psychology. James has made a tremendous impact on my daughter's understanding of the topic. This is a subject she knew nothing about but wanted to take at A Level. Initially struggled with understanding it but the progress she has made to achieve an "A" grade is nothing short of remarkable. All this with James's tutorial support. Well done James and the very best for the future. We are so glad we met you. You should be proud!!!

Perfect! Personalised Tutoring with a difference
My daughter is fortunate to have the brilliant tutorship of James. What stands out with James’s sessions is the personalised approach tailored to the needs of your child.

What my daughter finds refreshing is that she does not need to sit through another load of powerpoints during her sessions but rather brings to the table areas she requires assistance with and James is able to explain concepts, effectively which demonstrates his expertise and knowledge in the subject of Psychology.

My daughters grades have improved since starting sessions with James and she is now consistently achieving A grades for her tests. James comes highly recommended.

Perfect! Amazing Tutor
James is fantastic. He is very patient, thorough and achieves so much in a one hour session.
He reviews the topic and subject matter, fills any knowledge gaps, encourages reading around the subject and tests to make sure the information is understood. He did so much for my daughter's confidence in this subject - if I could give him 10 stars I would! In 6 weeks he moved her grade from a D to B and was striving for an A before Covid set in. A brilliant tutor.

Perfect! Best Psychology Tutor
James has tutored me throughout my second year of my A-Levels. Before that, I got a D in my mock exam at the end of my first year. Then James tutored me and I got a B in my final exam! He was always fun to work with, never boring, left notes for me and my mum after every lesson, which helped me to focus on the subjects I needed more work with. I'm proud and happy with my result and much of it is thanks to James too.

James is an exceptional tutor. He taught my daughter Psychology A-Level and was consistently enthusiastic, ordered, clear, kind and patient and explained topics in a way she could easily understand and retain. He was always punctual, polite and respectful and as a result of his excellent teaching my daughter improved hugely, attained her required grade and is off to university in September. I cannot recommend James highly enough - we were very lucky to have found him.

Update: Having received my results, I was one of only 2 people in my entire school to gain an A* in psychology A level. I am delighted with the result and am certain that this would not have been possible without James' help and support. I cannot recommend him more

I have known James for almost six years, since he first came to work as a Visiting Tutor in the English and Comparative Department, at Goldsmiths, University of London. His contribution to the activities of the Department was excellent. His dedication and his enthusiasm during his time at Goldsmiths were remarkable. Colleagues and students alike particularly appreciated his professionalism and his personal qualities.
In every respect, James’s contribution to the teaching of the First-Year introductory course to Literature and Theory, which I convene, was excellent. Students appreciated his organisational competence, his intelligent use of a variety of resources to stimulate interest and impart knowledge, his own high level of motivation, his ability to motivate others and above all his approachability. All reports regarding his classes attested the outstanding nature of his pedagogical skills.
I have no hesitation in recommending James for a teaching position.

Find out more about Dr James

When did you develop an interest in your chosen field and in private tutoring?
I have always had an interest in the human mind and understanding behaviour, but that interest was sparked in a more concrete way when I studied psychology for A-level. I started tutoring shortly after finishing my degree.
Tell us more about the subject you teach, the topics you like to discuss with students (and possibly those you like a little less).
I think it is fascinating to study psychology because it can teach you more about yourself, increase self-awareness, and about others, to increase empathy. So I feel it is not only useful but life-enhancing. There are many psychology topics I find interesting, e.g. the techniques of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, which helps people to become more aware of their thought processes and thus change them, and has been empirically shown to improve mental health.
Did you have any role models; a teacher that inspired you?
I was blessed with a number of great teachers over the years. One of my best teachers was one who always inspired me to go a little further with a project than I thought I could!
What do you think are the qualities required to be a good tutor?
There are many qualities that can help, such as being conscientious, responsible and well-prepared, but I think one of the most important is to be receptive, responsive, and a good listener, so you can tailor your lessons to the needs of your students.
Provide a valuable anecdote related to your subject or your days at school.
I remember helping my friends with their schoolwork, in a very natural way. I realise now I was already tutoring, from a young age. I think that if you look back on the things you enjoyed doing, and did naturally, when you were growing up, it can sometimes help you to find the work you enjoy doing in adulthood.
What were the difficulties or challenges you faced or still facing in your subject?
One challenge is communicating large amounts of information in a clear way, in ways that are digestible.
Do you have a particular passion? Is it teaching in general or an element of the subject or something completely different?
I am fascinated by psychology, but I am also passionate about teaching in general. I also love the other side, learning new things. I think the more aware we are of ourselves and the world around us, the more able we are to have a positive impact.
What makes you a Superprof (besides answering these interview questions :-P) ?
I am dedicated to helping my students achieve their full potential.

Highly qualified and experienced Psychology tutor, with excellent results and references. I am a friendly tutor, dedicated to supporting my students and helping them achieve their full potential!
