Peter
Tailored Tuition in English Literature, Drama and History
If you are looking for a tutor who will work with you to help you achieve your best and help boost confidence in your studies then look no further. I am available for tuition sessions on the subjects of English Literature, English Language, Drama, Theatre Studies and European, American and Irish History. I graduated in MA Hons English Literature and History in 2019 from The University of Edinburgh and I am currently finishing my MFA Acting for a Stage and Screen at Edinburgh Napier University. I have experience teaching childrens drama classes for those aged 4 to 11 and of English Language Summer Schools for those aged 11 to 16. In addition, I have tutored the subjects of English, History and Drama across GCSE, A-Level and Undergraduate level. Each session is tailored to the needs of the individual and can cover specific curriculum content as well as essay, exam and coursework technique. I am flexible on the length of time of these sessions and can host these both online or in person if in Edinburgh.

Justin
Historian. Political Scientist, and Journalist offering classes in History, Geography, and Social Sciences
I offer classes on History, Geography, and Political Science, with over 11 years' of experience in these subjects, both professionally and academically. I hold Bachelor's Degrees in both History and Political Science (from the University of Florida), as well as a Master's in Political Science, specifically European Politics (from KU Leuven). I have extensive experience in a wide range of historical and political subjects and have always had a keen interest in history and the social sciences. Additionally, previously I have been a journalist (dealing with Competition Law) and currently am an editor working on a wide variety of subjects for organizations such as the UNHCR and Goethe Institut, among others. I am capable of teaching and lecturing on numerous historical and political events and periods in history, with myself having specialized in European history, American history, African history, as well as the Medieval period and Antiquity.

Jeena Khan
Teaching International Humanitarian Law at 2 Levels; Intermediate - Advanced
With over one year experience in teaching and a decade long experience with adolescents and young adults, I, herein, present my course in "International Humanitarian Law". In today's globalized world where the effects and repercussions of a conflict are not confined within a single state, it becomes crucial to know what rules are in place that regulate conflict and provide protection to those who are vulnerable. Aiming to mitigate and prevent human suffering in an armed conflict, International Humanitarian Law gives us answers to questions, such as: who can and cannot be targeted and under which conditions; at what times does a protected person lose protection; who is a combatant; what distinguishes a combatant from a civilian; and, what protections are available to those who do not take part in an armed conflict. Amidst the many interstate conflicts, such as, Ukraine-Russia, Iran-Israel and Palestine-Israel conflicts, as well as the intrastate ones, such as in Sudan, having a working knowledge of International Humanitarian Law becomes even more vital as it re-establishes one's trust in law and humanity at such uncertain times as these ones.

History and geopolitics courses in middle and high school
Learn the methodology in dissertation and document analysis from middle school as well as high school. This is what is present in History Geography and in the HGGSP specialty, and I offer courses aimed, in addition to helping the learning of courses in these subjects, to put it into practice in an exercise with a built methodology. It is this methodology that I teach, in order to provide the student with independence. I can also provide homework help in these classes, as well as re-explain and repeat poorly understood course points. As for speaking in public, it is necessary for the oral exams at the end of high school. I have been part of a debate group for 3 years and have acquired a certain mastery there. I am a student in high school, in the final year and I already have experience in helping with homework in my high school. I also chose the HGGSP specialty (geopolitics and political science) in second and I obtained my baccalaureate in this subject.

Claudia Sánchez
Geography and History, English, Spanish Language and Literature, Philosophy...
I have a degree in Art History from the Complutense University of Madrid and have completed a Master's Degree in Teacher Training. These studies allow me to teach most of the humanities subjects and, above all, to ESO and Bachillerato students. In addition, I have one year of experience as a teacher at the El Valle Las Tablas charter school, where I was in charge of the entire 2nd ESO level in the Geography and History subject and I was a tutor for one of the groups. In addition to this, I have been a monitor and coordinator in the scout group 291 Alfa Centauro in Alcalá de Henares, so I have experience working with children of all ages. I have also been a private tutor for various subjects for several years. On the other hand, I have a C1 level in English, recognised by Trinity, which allows me to teach this language. My teaching approach is based on creating a positive atmosphere in which students feel comfortable. I firmly believe that the best teaching is that which is understood, which is why it is my main objective. I also instill the importance of working on the content, because only in this way can a private / support teacher help the student in the most satisfactory way possible.
