Learning Path Psychology – Full FAQs

How are lessons delivered?

All sessions are live and interactive online. Students can join from anywhere, and if they can’t attend live, every lesson is recorded so they never miss out.

Can students ask questions?

Yes — during live lessons, students can use the comment box at any time, and one of our tutors is always on hand to answer. Outside of lessons, students can message us directly via WhatsApp for support.

Can parents contact tutors?

Absolutely. Parents can reach out to us anytime if they want updates or have concerns. We also provide monthly progress reports so you always know how your child is doing.

Why not just hire a one-to-one tutor?
  • Many one-to-one tutors are students themselves, not trained educators.
  • Sessions often lack structure and miss key exam content.
  • No neuroscience-backed methods or consistent teaching style.
  • Lessons depend on what the student asks, not the full syllabus.
  • No access to a resource bank, walkthroughs, replays, or peer community.

At Learning Path, every lesson is handcrafted to match the AQA and OCR syllabuses exactly — with live sessions, predicted exam questions, model answers, and resources that build real exam confidence.

What exactly is included in the course?
  • Two live A-Level Psychology group sessions per week
  • Topic-by-topic predicted exam questions with model answers
  • Student portal with replays, notes, quizzes, and exam resources
  • Monthly parent progress reports with grades, attendance, and feedback
When do the courses run?

The full Psychology course runs from September through to the final exams in June. We also run shorter crash courses ahead of mock exams and final assessments.

How will I know if my child is making progress?

Parents receive regular updates with quiz/test scores and monthly progress reports, so you can see your child’s growth and confidence in real time.
