Learning styles are categories that explain how individuals process new information.

• Visual learners prefer images, mind maps, and colour-coded materials
• Auditory learners benefit from lectures, podcasts, and verbal explanations
• Kinaesthetic learners grasp concepts through practical experiments and physical engagement
• Reading/writing learners process information through reading and writing it down
• Social learners learn best through discussion and peer interaction
• Solitary learners prefer self-study and personal reflection
• Logical learners understand through cause-and-effect relationships

A psychology tutor can identify your preferred style and create personalised strategies for you.

• The lesson format (via video call, face-to-face, or hybrid)

Several tutors provide a free trial lesson so you can see if the teaching style works for you.

Five major perspectives form the foundation of psychology at most exam boards.

• Biological approach – focuses on hormones, genes, and the nervous system
• Cognitive approach – treats the mind as an information processor
• Behavioural approach – focuses on observable actions rather than internal states
• Psychodynamic approach – explores hidden motivations and defence mechanisms
• Humanistic approach – focuses on individual potential and subjective experience

A strong psychology student can compare and contrast these perspectives.
