I can help with initial planning of the essay, which will include introduction, middle part and conclusion dependent on your chosen essay topic.
First step will be to look and discuss your topic question , then make a mind map diagram if all ideas you wish to include .

Second step will be to start writing the intro. Linking it to the question you have been given.
Thirdly, we will start creating references and researching sources to add in.

I am offering a Writing 101 class in the following areas: 1) Creating Writing, 2) Business Writing and 3) Essay Writing.

I am an American, London-based professional with +4 years of professional experiences (and at least 20 years of 'non professional' experience - as I've been writing for the majority of my life).

I hold a BA degree in Literature from Sarah Lawrence College in New York. I also hold two MA Degrees in Art Business from the Sotheby's Institute of Art in London as well as an MA Degree In Fashion Media Practice (Fashion Journalism) from the Condé Nast College of Fashion & Design in London.

My course is offered to a range of students [different ages] who have a desire to learn how to write and/or enjoy writing. On an additional note, my business writing experience extends to writing case studies and basic report writing [based on my Sotheby's experience]. I can offer Creative Writing and Essay Writing Experience to students and/or young professionals [who have a desire to learn/practice their craft].

Hello,

I offer one-to-one private tuition to university students and adults in Political Science, Essay/Dissertation-writing, Political Economy, Economics, and European Studies.

I have 15 years of experience in high-quality private tuition, and I am also a Lecturer in EU Politics at one of the world’s leading universities (University College London).

My main areas of specialization are European Union politics and political economy, but I also regularly teach all other areas of Political Science, including Public Policy, Comparative Politics, Introduction to Politics, Populism, Democratisation, and many more. In addition, I teach Economics at a beginner/intermediate level.

I can also help with dissertations and essays, at the undergraduate, Master or Ph.D. level. As I supervise and mark UCL students ' dissertations throughout the year, I am able to give you the marker's perspective and help you ensure that you obtain a top mark. In addition, I am experienced in helping adult learners who want to improve their skills in Political Science or basic Economics, for professional or personal reasons.

Teaching is an activity that I deeply enjoy, and for which I have great enthusiasm. I was recently nominated for the Award for Outstanding Teaching by the UCL Students' Union. The feedback which I received from students taught in the past was very positive. In particular, I was told that my teaching had inspired students, and had made complex subjects appear simple and interesting.

My approach to teaching is results-focused. I first discuss with the student what are his/her objectives (this may be achieving top marks on a final exam, being able to undertake exercises given as homework, or increasing their understanding of certain aspects of a subject). We then devise together a work plan, to ensure that the student meets those goals.

This approach has been very successful in the past, as it is not only important to understand a certain subject, but also to be prepared for the particular type of examination or assessment that the student will need to face.

I have a Ph.D. in Political Economy from Utrecht University, a master's in European Studies from the College of Europe in Bruges, and a degree in Economics from the London School of Economics (LSE).

I teach either in person in London (ideally at UCL), or via email exchanges for written advice. Unfortunately I do not offer online classes.

Recent graduate of Oxford University, theology and religion. A*s in A levels and 9s at gcses.
Will provide high level tutoring in any subject (ks2-4, gcse, a level etc) related to my degree subject. These include Religious studies, ethics, philosophy, politics, english (literature at a-level, lit and lang gcse). Can offer subject specific teaching, but also more generally essay writing practice, as well as oxbridge interview, personal statement, and entrance exam help, particularly for students in the state sector. While I cannot guarantee success, I will do my best to relay my experiences and hopefully provide students with helpful guidance.
Classes will be catered specifically according to each student, however I will often ask for them to come along with recent examples of written work, or practice papers/questions.
