I graduated (July 2016) with a First-Class Degree from the University of Huddersfield in Psychology with Counselling BSc (Hons). I enrolled on a Masters in September 2017; I transferred from this onto a PhD in Psychology in May 2018, following the success of my first-year Progress Monitoring. For both of these courses, I have been awarded fee waivers and a bursary for my PhD. I am currently completing corrections for my PhD.
I am a part-time lecturer, research assistant and tutor. This includes working with students in the classroom and remotely, offering online support through the portal and marking work submitted. I strive to give positive, yet constructive, feedback to my students, to assist them to improve their work. I am hoping to pursue a career in lecturing after I have finished my PhD.
I spent a year working at a local engineering college, doing mechanics and engineering. I assisted with teaching English and occasional Personal Tutor sessions when needed. These experiences have allowed me to acquire an understanding and appreciation of different learning needs. I believe this is vital in anyone delivering educational materials as it allows engagement in all learners.
I enjoy reading, drawing, and cooking. I like spending time with family and friends. I enjoy documentaries, particularly history, psychology and crime. I am currently teaching myself French. I like to travel, see new cultures and learn about history.
After completing my bachelor’s degree, I was employed by a supply teaching agency. During this time, I worked as a teaching assistant at high schools, colleges, and SEN schools. Predominantly, I worked in an Engineering college, on a long-term contract, working with both engineering and mechanics students; with students from E3 to Level 3. During this time, I covered English classes and personal tutor sessions. I participated in meetings for students’ Education Health and Care Plans and the implementation of further assistance for students. I organised other teaching assistants and their schedules.
I have worked as a Teaching Assistant and Lecturer, on an Introduction to Qualitative and Quantitative Data course for first-year university students. In this role, I teach students how to collect qualitative data, the basis on ontological and epistemological perspectives and how to conduct a Theoretical Thematic Analysis. I was a lecturer in a Child Language Acquisition module and a Health Psychology module. I have co-supervised three English Literature dissertations. I have guest lectured for Social Psychology, Speech and Language Therapy, Gender and Sexuality and Advanced Practice Nursing. This has ranged between undergraduate and master's level and included marking.
I worked as a tutor, between September 2020 and March 2021, tutoring an A-Level student about Psychology (AQA). Sessions focused on Research Methods, Issues and Debates, Gender and Schizophrenia. Following this, I began working at Spires in April 2021. Since starting with Spires, I have worked with students from A-Level to PhD. I assist with structuring essays and evaluating research. I have helped students improve their grades throughout a range of topics, using a myriad of assignment techniques, including case studies and reflective pieces. My expertise is in health, social, developmental and I have particular interest in qualitative research methods, including IPA, thematic and template analysis.

Great feedback! Thanks Harriet
The help I received from Harriet was exceptional. The knowledge she holds is vast, and her writing skills are impeccable. I will definitely schedule more sessions for future work! Thank you, Harriet :)
Thank you Harriet, that was very useful
Another great class with Harriet !!
Fantiastic! Thank you Harriet
Harriet's tutoring sessions are a lifesaver. She is kind, helpful and so knowledgable on what seems to be all areas of psychology. Having lessons with her has both improved my grades and my confidence and I am so glad to have someone as good as her provide me with the extra help I needed.
Harriet was really helpful. She was really easy to talk to as well as knowledgeable about IPA. I was able to talk through my research and was given some helpful advice. I definitely felt a higher level of confidence due to the encouragement received.
Fantastic Overview and discussion about the Psychodynamic Approach

PhD in Psychology (Funded by University)
Thesis Title: ‘Learning not to love, but to just ‘care’’: An in-depth analysis of carers’ experiences of administering care and being employed in a social care setting
Brief Synopsis: I am currently undertaking a PhD surrounding the experiences of care workers. My research is split into two main sections. The first section being the emotional experiences care workers face whilst employed, data was collected using diaries and semi-structured interviews and has been analysed using Template Analysis. The second stage of research is surrounding boundaries and boundary management in care workers. This involves the boundaries (such as policies, procedures, and social boundaries, e.g. professionalism and use of touch) managed by care workers during employment. This data was collected using pre-interview prompts and semi-structured interviews and will be analysed using Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis.
