About Kate
I have 2 years of experience as a university tutor and guest lecturer at the University of Nebraska–Lincoln, where I supported large classes (300-400 students) and small-group teaching (1-10 students). I was also recognized with the Outstanding Learning Assistant Award from the Psychology Department for teaching and student support.
I teach:
• Biology (SPM level – simplified and concept-focused)
• Psychology (IGCSE, A-Level, IB, and university level)
• Research Methods and Statistics (basic to undergraduate level)
• IELTS preparation (My Band: 8.5)
• Brief one-off consultancy for resume/CV enhancing sessions, editing cover letters, and interview preparations
I specialize in neuroscience and can help students understand key topics such as general psychology, developmental psychology, neuroscience, psychopharmacology, and social/political psychology in a simple and structured way.
My focus is on making difficult concepts easy to understand, using clear explanations, examples, and guided practice to help students improve confidence and exam performance. I was a psychology and political science graduate with a heavy emphasis in neuroscience, where I have hands-on work with wet lab settings and biology-heavy research analysis and writing.

About the lesson
- All Levels
- English
All languages in which the lesson is available :
English
• Lessons focus on targeting each section individually with a strong emphasis on learning examination patterns, schemes, and clear communication
• I preferably start with 1) Diagnosing the student's proficiency levels in English 2) Make an intensive learning program for them 3) Rotating between tackling different sections for variety 4) Returning or explaining whichever sections feel confusing
• Guided questioning, discussion, practice questions, and real-life examples to help students engage with the material.
• Suitable for IELTS, pre-university applications and university undergraduate writing.
• Lessons are typically 60 minutes depending on the student's needs.
• Depending on the type of program/examinations I'm preparing you for, I will alter the lesson structures. Usually, my lessons are more geared towards IELTS or similar ESOL examinations.
Former Background:
• Psychology and Political Science graduate from the University of Nebraska–Lincoln (Neuroscience emphasis), former Learning Assistant, tutor, and wet lab research assistant.
• Recipient of the Outstanding Undergraduate Learning Assistant Award for teaching and student support.
