Edits are made using Word’s ‘Track Changes’ tool so you can accept or reject each change, with feedback left in the margins for you to apply as required. *2–3 day turnaround, with a rushed 12-hour turnaround an additional $30. 📄 NEW: H1 Lab Report Guide (17 page PDF guide): message for price. Want to improve your lab reports without the cost of tutoring? I’ve written a 17-page PDF guide that breaks down exactly how to write a H1 lab report - and more importantly, how to think and write like a high-performing psych student. Built off years of insights as a tutor, it covers insights that would otherwise take numerous tutoring sessions to work through, for a fraction of the price. This guide covers everything from building a strong introduction and literature review, to writing sophisticated aims and hypotheses, through to methods, results, and a compelling discussion. It also teaches you how to critically evaluate studies, identify gaps in the literature, discuss your limitations properly, and avoid the common mistakes that keep students stuck in the credit/distinction range. It also includes detailed examples throughout, with samples from actual University of Melbourne lab reports, plus a full lab report checklist at the end so you can compare your work against marker expectations before you submit.

After returning to uni to study my grad dip in psychology, I contacted Michael for help with lab report writing. After a couple of tutoring sessions he put me onto his PDF guide, and let me tell you it was honestly some of the best money I have spent this semester. The guide breaks everything down in a way that’s detailed yet easy to follow, and the examples throughout make it so much easier to see exactly what you need to write. As someone who hadn’t written a lab report in years, it was exactly what I needed. If you are studying psych, do yourself a favour and grab it before your next assignment.

Michael is really an incredible tutor! He proofread several of my lab reports and assignments throughout undergrad, and always explained his feedback really well. I ended up getting into my preferred psych honours course in large part thanks to his help. His feedback also helped lift my grades up to a H1 average, which I honestly don’t think I could’ve achieved without him. Investing in Michael’s help was game changing!!

Michael tutored me whilst I was at college with Unimelb. He is extremely talented at writing lab reports and is an expert on the lingo, structure, and details of how to turn a good lab report great. He’s super clear in his feedback and makes it seem simple and easy - only because he’s done it before dozens of times. Can verify that his WAM of 90 checks out. Michael is extremely talented academically, and has a knack for turning the complex things into simple and easy-to-understand feedback. 10/10 would recommend as a tutor, definately more than worth the hourly rate.

Michael tutored me in a couple of second year Unimelb psych subjects. Michael is always sure to explain complex concepts (particularly statistics) in a simple, and practical way. He is patient and always made sure I truly understood things before moving on. My assignment marks improved significantly over the course of the semester. I highly recommend Michael to anyone struggling with psychology —he’s knowledgeable, supportive, and genuinely cares about his students’ success. Could not recommend Michael more!

Michael is truly a legend. He tutored me in several of my second- and third-year subjects, helping me deepen my understanding of key concepts and develop strategies for tackling assignments that led to top grades. He’s incredibly kind and patient, explaining things in a way that clicks for you. No matter how many questions you ask, he never makes you feel uncomfortable or judged. I couldn’t recommend him more highly to anyone looking for a tutor.
