English, History, Social Studies, and Exam and Essay Prep

From 27 £ /h

This class will provide students with the necessary analytical tools and principal knowledge they need to succeed in their English, History, or Social Studies classes, on both primary and secondary levels. Coming from a background of sociological research, I have both qualitative and quantitative methodological study methods that inform my tutoring strategies and increase student's general comprehension of key concepts. Beginning with teaching core principles from assigned textbooks and syllabi (of which I independently review and use to create individual and tailored lesson plans), I also provide students with critical thinking skills, grammar lessons, and essay writing tips to ensure that they reach their academic and intellectual potential. I am presently a master's student at LSE and have six years of tutoring and teaching experience in related disciplines, as well as experience working with students with varied learning and cognitive demands.

I am a tutor of Italian and English as a foreign/second language. I had the opportunity to teach in different contexts with multicultural groups of students from many countries and backgrounds. I am currently teaching Italian to individual students and corporate clients with different language requirements and purposes. I have also conducted a preparation course for Italian GCSE and A level exams in London.

I teach to all levels and ages using a communicative and student-centred approach. My lessons are very interactive and focused on real life and cultural situations.
I care about my students’ learning progress and achievements and I am keen to guide them in a friendly, dedicated and respectful manner. Moreover, one of my main goals as a teacher is to enable my students to enjoy the experience of communicating, thinking and reacting in a foreign language.

I have always loved exchanging and passing on what I have learned. My mother being a German teacher, I have always been immersed in the world of education. I started tutoring when I was in high school, and I still do today.

My journey :
- Mention Very Good at the ES baccalaureate
- Studied Sociology and Political Science at the University of Geneva
- History and Spanish studies at the London School of Economics (LSE), First Class Honours.

I help academically and psychologically students in History-Geography, SES and English. I explain the course in detail (if necessary), and we work on the methodology for each event, the organization and the planning of the work to be done. I can also follow your child in other subjects for the smallest classes.

For example, I worked with two students in great difficulty (general average around 7-8 out of 20), and the latter obtained their baccalaureate, one of them with honors.
I also worked with another student the previous year, who obtained the mention Very Good (with 19/20 in SES).

Currently a student at King's College in Master in Cultural Management, I did before that a double degree in Law and History of Art at La Sorbonne in Paris. I passed my Scientific Baccalaureate (OIB American) obtained with Mention Très Bien in 2015.
Thus, my studies allowed me to be rigorous and organized. Having already given piano lessons, I am also teaching.

My strengths are the literary subjects like French and English but I am very versatile and I can also help high school students in subjects like History, Maths, SVT, or Physics Chemistry.

My schedule remains very flexible.

Do not hesitate to contact me via the site.

I have been living in Spain for more than 10 years, I am very confident in my Spanish and Catalan. Moreover, as I am Chinese so if you are interested in learning another completely different new language, I am very happy to help you.

My goal is to help you with the language pronunciation, grammar and day to day necessary expression. After each class, I will provide feedback to help you to know where you need to improve and which are the things you are doing well.

Depending on the age range, I will decide to have the class in a more attractiveness way (for children) or a more serious way ( for teenagers and adults). Thank you

French can be hard to learn especially if you don't have some motivation to do it. This is why I think that helping people learning it can make people appreciate the process of learning. I also did a Scientifique Baccalauréat (Math, Physics and Chemistry) and I study Economics and Management, I'll be able to teach Math until A-Levels.
For History, it is one of my passion especially French History as it is the one I learned through school but I'll be able to adapt to the lecture your child follow

English Literature is a broad and expansive subject area. In this course, we'll cover a range of topics and authors inspired by current exam board recommendations and my own personal must-reads and recommendations as supplementary. Of course, this course is tailored to you, so we can cover any era or author that interests you alongside any preparations for examination.

The course can span all the way from the Medieval to Today in terms of content, and provide a grounding in whichever literature you as a student could need. For anyone looking to sign up, please include the book/books or period you would like to be tutored in.

A-Level Sociology is one of the hardest subjects to tackle at A-Level if you are not familiar with memorising an entire compilation of names and theories. I specialise in teaching Sociology and achieved an A* at A-Level with OCR Sociology. In spite of this, I can teach and adapt to other exam boards like AQA, and there is a demand for Sociology tutoring. I currently study at King's College London University, but am free during weekends to tutor.

Thank you for reading.

With seven years of experience teaching English, I have had the privilege of educating students across various curricula worldwide, including Cambridge IGCSE, GCSE, A-Levels, O-Levels, Checkpoint, and SAT. My teaching journey has taken me through diverse educational settings, where I have worked with students of different abilities, adapting my instructional strategies to meet their unique learning needs.

As a dedicated English educator, I focus on developing students' reading, writing, speaking, and critical thinking skills. I believe in fostering an inclusive learning environment where every student can thrive, regardless of their proficiency level. My lessons are structured to engage learners through interactive discussions, literary analysis, grammar mastery, and creative writing exercises.

To reinforce classroom learning, I assign meaningful homework after each lesson, allowing students to practice and apply their skills independently. I strive to make English an engaging and enriching subject, equipping students with the linguistic and analytical skills necessary for academic success and lifelong learning.

Passionate about education, I continuously explore innovative teaching methodologies to inspire and challenge my students, ensuring they reach their full potential.
