Learners and parents/carers will discover that Psychology is about much more than “mind reading”! From memory, attachment and social influence to biopsychology, mental health, and research methods, Shafina explains how learners explore human behaviour while developing valuable skills in critical thinking, problem-solving, research, communication, and creativity.\nShafina also shares how she brings Psychology to life beyond the textbook through lively discussions, creative activities, and employer-led projects with organisations such as Google and IBM, alongside trips and real-world experiences. With a strong focus on encouraging learners to question, analyse, challenge ideas and become confident independent thinkers, this episode is a great listen for anyone considering A Level Psychology — and who knows, you might even discover a little more about why we humans behave the way we do! 😊\n\nFor exclusive content and for a sneak peek behind the scenes, please visit: https://www.industryready.co.uk","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/mSZH9_gSkD08vcFPe9fMsCLlTmY2aAb8QlEqE7gkPRg/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS8zNjdk/ZmQzMzRmYTYwNmY0/NzRiM2JkYTFkYWM5/OTU4Ny5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
