"All of the feedback on my pieces of work we looked at were very clear and detailed. The explanations he gave when I asked questions were thorough. The sessions were always relaxed whilst being informative, and Frazier ensured a question or topic had been answered fully before moving on."

Psychology Super Curricular Activities
What are super curricular activities? Every student that applies to university will know something about psychology. They may have seen a true crime documentary about a serial killer, read an article about attachment styles, or even studied the subject at GCSE or A-level. But in order to convince universities to give you an offer for undergraduate study, you will need to go above and beyond this level, exploring the subject to a greater extent.
Thinking Skills Assessment (TSA)
What is the TSA? The Thinking Skills Assessment (TSA) is a form of assessment used to measure aptitude in critical thinking and problem solving. The TSA can be a requirement for gaining entry to top universities (including Oxford, Cambridge and UCL), as well as a handful of independent schools, who produce their own modified version of the exam (sometimes called a Critical Thinking test) for 16+.

We can provide Psychology tuition tailored to specific exams for GCSE Psychology, IB Psychology, A Level Psychology, and the Oxford Thinking Skills Assessment (TSA). We help to improve exam performance by making use of past Psychology papers, reinforcing core learning, developing revision techniques, and helping students to push the boundaries of their knowledge of Psychology to differentiate themselves from fellow students.
GCSE Psychology students will need a solid grounding in topics like Memory, Perception, and Social Influence. Our Psychology tutors will help your child develop a fluent knowledge of the appropriate methods and concepts, and maximise their ability to pick and use the correct tools and techniques to answer Psychology questions across a range of different contexts. We aim to build up your child’s confidence, speed, and accuracy under pressure in Psychology, equipping them to excel at GCSE level.
IB Psychology is a challenging qualification, covering a range of compulsory and optional components from Abnormal Psychology, to Cognitive, Biological, and Sociocultural approaches to understanding Behaviour. Our Psychology tutors will help your child to gain a deeper understanding of the subject, develop their critical thinking skills, solve problems, and communicate their knowledge successfully in an exam context.
A Level Psychology is a key subject for many future career paths, and students have to master a wide range of complex topics to succeed. Our Psychology tutors are able to focus in on those areas where your child needs additional support, help them demonstrate their knowledge effectively under time pressure, and ultimately prepare them to perform strongly in these key exams.
The TSA is designed to help whittle down the number of students moving on to interview stage when applying to read Psychology (as well as other degrees) at Oxford University, and as such is a rigorous and competitive examination. Our TSA tutors can help your child maximise their performance in this assessment, building on their knowledge and helping them to demonstrate the depth of their understanding successfully, as they compete for places to read Psychology at Oxford University.
The PBSAA tutors we work with are experienced in the intricacies of the Psychological and Behavioural Sciences Admissions Assessment for Cambridge University.
