Essay writing skills for secondary school to university level students

From 20 £ /h

I believe that essay writing is a skill which anybody can learn to improve at, and these improvements come from learning how to structure an essay, think critically about the topic and title, and even down to the basic level of how to structure sentences.
I will tailor tuition to each student, looking at examples of their work, and taking into account their level and what they want to achieve, to assess what needs to be worked on which we can then discuss in class.
This class would be ideal for those who are in secondary school to sixth-form or at university working towards completing a qualification in an essay-based subject.

Extra information

Please let me know what qualification you are working towards (if any!), and if possible it would be great to receive an example of a recent essay you have looked at before class.

Latin language teaching for beginner and intermediates

25 £ /h

This class is for all those who want to learn Latin, from complete beginners to intermediate level. My goal is to tailor each class to each student's needs, whether that is to prepare for GCSE or A-level exams or to help someone learn purely out of interest.
In a first class we can assess which areas you need to work on, whether that may be grammar, vocabulary or something else. Generally, I see languages as a pattern which is laid out by grammar and then filled in by vocabulary, something which we can go over and then put into practice in classes by doing translations.
We can also read Latin texts, possibly set texts for an exam if you are preparing for one, and discuss textual commentary and context.
Above all I also aim to encourage a love of Latin language and literature in all those keen to learn.

Overcome your fears and unlock creative inspiration to finally get to the end of your writing project.

Let yourself be guided and finally realize your dream of writing.

➤ Overcome your fears.
➤ Discover the secret to writing 100% fun and 0% blank pages.
➤ Awaken this writer's flame that has been dormant in you for a long time.
➤ Build unwavering legitimacy and overcome the fear of failure, lack of time and procrastination that keep you from moving forward.

In short, put an end to the fear of writing! Isn't it difficult to be consumed by the desire to write your project and not succeed in doing it? Break forever the insurmountable wall that prevents you from writing today.

It is a matter of combining improvements in form with improvements in substance. For this, the sessions can for example take place according to your needs as follows:
a) Comments / proposals on the text that you will offer me b) Writing exercises based on a statement.
c) A series of precise and pragmatic recommendations and their application through style exercises.

Whether it is a novel, an essay, song lyrics, various texts, a biography or simply a report for professional or school purposes, it is about offering you elements personalized pedagogy:

- Study your text
- Build text, song lyrics etc
- Calmly polish the style
- Research and develop your lexical fields
- Differentiate between writing for oneself and writing for others

All this by combining theory and practice: Writing work from exercises then as part of a personal project.

During the sessions, you are guided in your writing project. The trainer accompanies you and teaches you the preparation method, gives you writing tools and helps you work on your style and your imagination.

The objective is multiple, including a reflection on one's own literary path, an introduction to the basic tools of style work and exercises on description.

Learning objectives:
- Identify your writing path.
- Mobilize your imagination.
- Learn and master the practical writing tools.
- Broaden its reflection on creation and professional and personal writing.
- Create and develop one or more projects.

Trained in a European Grande Ecole & Ivy League University in the United States, specialized and has been working in Europe and North America for more than 16 years in this field, in reputable international institutions , also intervening in forums and conferences.

- Locations: Geneva - Lausanne - Friborg - Neuchâtel - Montreux - Basel - Sion - Sierre - Morges - Bienne. But currently and until further notice, only by videoconference in accordance with national recommendations on Covid.

These sessions, for which you have asked me, also seem to be perfectly unanimous since they arouse a certain enthusiasm (and a certain enthusiasm). Indeed, they have the advantage of face-to-face sessions (ex: quality of the interaction), without its disadvantages (ex: loss of travel time) with additional advantages (ex: the entire session transcribed in writing on the chat). That is why, at your request, I continue to offer this option.

À la carte: evaluated and adapted to each personality.

Hello! I'm an Italian high school teacher and published writer with a strong academic background in Literature and Languages, studied across Italy, the UK, and France. I have extensive experience tutoring students of all ages and levels, and I bring both a structured and culturally rich approach to each lesson.
My classes are personalized to suit the individual needs, goals, and current level of each student. Typically, a lesson is divided into two parts:

- Grammar & Language Structure – I teach grammar interactively using a textbook as a guide, alongside custom exercises that I prepare based on each student’s progress and needs.

- Conversation Practice – We dedicate time to speaking and listening, helping students become more confident and fluent in real-life communication.

For intermediate and advanced learners, I enrich lessons with insights into the evolution of the Italian language, drawing connections to Latin roots and Italian literature. I also weave in elements of Italian culture—from regional expressions to literary references—to make the learning experience more immersive and enjoyable.

Whether you're learning Italian for travel, study, work, or personal interest, I’ll help you reach your goals with a method that is both rigorous and inspiring.

This math class is designed to help students build a strong, confident understanding of core mathematical concepts while improving problem-solving skills and exam performance. The course covers key topics typically taught at the high school level, including algebra, functions, geometry, and basic trigonometry, with a focus on clarity, step-by-step reasoning, and real exam-style questions.

Students will not only learn how to solve problems, but also why the methods work—helping them develop deeper understanding rather than memorizing formulas. Special attention is given to common mistakes, time-saving strategies, and techniques used in standardized tests and school exams.

This class is especially helpful for students who want to improve their grades and overall understanding of math, feel stuck or confused by certain topics, are preparing for exams or standardized tests, or need a structured and supportive environment to practice consistently.
