The Psychology Perspective

ellie2302d

Welcome to The Psychology Perspective podcast!! I’m a psychology teacher at a college, and after completing my diploma in criminology and my bachelors in psychology (counselling) I thought I’d answer some common psychology questions 🧠 whether it’s psychology of serial killers, research methods or even uni life, we will cover all of it- everything psychological :) PS- I am by no means a doctor or psychologist; simply sharing what I’ve learnt and hopefully starting an interesting podcast for those with an interest in the field 🎧
