Developmental Psychology - MSc
Hi, I am Ellie, a masters student studying Developmental Psychology. I have a passion for education and aspire to be an educational consultant. When I was studying for my A Levels I was adamant that I didn't want to leave home, however, moving to uni has been the best decision I have ever made! Life at university has helped me explore new passions and enabled me to continue with old hobbies such as dance! As an education and psychology student, I can explore new ideas in psychology and put them into practice in education, allowing for an advanced style of thinking. Since being at uni I have immersed myself in my studies and life as a student and since becoming a course rep, student ambassador and online tutor as well as being in the dance society. If you have any questions regarding the course or life at University please feel free to drop me a message and I will offer my friendly support and knowledge. One of the best ways to get an understanding of University is through the students who experience it firsthand! Ellie x
