Psychology is a fascinating subject and we have been chatting to our tutor, Erin, to find out more about it!
Are you at the stage where you need to be thinking about universities? Perhaps you know someone who is struggling with how to choose where to go? It can be really difficult picking the right one for you, so we’ve compiled a list of advice to help you to get started!
Although INICIO students rarely find themselves in this predicament, as we have mentored and guided them towards realistic goals, you never know what’s going to happen on the day of the ‘real’ exam. It might be that you were on track for an ‘A*’ all year, but then on the day you misread the main essay question, panicked, or ran out of time, which led to your results day not being quite as happy as you imagined.
Hannah was really struggling with French, so much so that her last result was a D. She planned to drop French after Year 11.
How did Hannah go from failing to studying French and Mandarin at university?
After another difficult year with French, Hannah asked for help. She started tutoring sessions with Sarah, who quickly recognised that Hannah’s fear could be turned into her passion.
From warm, engaging one-to-one sessions with Sarah, Hannah gradually found her confidence. She also discovered a love of languages. Inspired by Sarah’s passion, Hannah thrived in the learning environment and began to excel – and not only in French. In addition to scoring an A in French, she also scored an A at GCSE maths after only six weeks of tutoring.
Hannah’s mum agrees with 100% of parents who say that their child enjoys their time at INICIO.
A more recent update on Hannah :)
"I graduated from Exeter in 2018 with a degree in Chinese and French and I have spent the last two years completing a masters in International Business at Grenoble Ecole de Management, which I just finished last month!
I have also just completed an 8-month internship in corporate development, which I did alongside my thesis.”

We love hearing what our previous students are up to and Hannah has clearly been keeping herself busy over the past few years! We're so pleased that she has continued with languages after Sarah helped her to turn her fear into her passion :)
