    About Me

    Hello! My name is Claire and I have recently graduated from the University of Edinburgh. I have been an online tutor for over three years now, and I specialise in French, History, English, and Sociology. I enjoy creating a comfortable and productive environment in which my students improve their confidence as well as their academic and/or linguistic ability. I thoroughly enjoy what I do, and I find passing on my enthusiasm for a subject immensely satisfying.

    Education

    First Class degree with Honours in MA Sociology and Social Anthropology, University of Edinburgh (2019-2023).

    Scottish Highers: English (A), History (A), Music (A), French (A), Chemistry (B)
    Scottish National 5s: English (A), History (A), Music (A), French (A), Chemistry (A), Biology (A), Maths (A), Modern Studies (A)

    Experience / Qualifications

    Teaching experience: over 3 years online tutoring, currently a volunteer ESOL tutor for Asylum Seekers in Glasgow, worked as a teaching assistant in two high schools in France, and taught English at a summer camp for one month in Poland.

    Qualifications: TESOL + TEFL certificates

    Languages: English (native), French (B2), Spanish (A2)
    As an experienced tutor with a First Class degree in Sociology and Social Anthropology from the University of Edinburgh, I specialize in helping students excel in their GCSE and A-Level qualifications in Sociology, as well as supporting university coursework in both Sociology and Anthropology. My creative approach incorporates a variety of resources to make complex concepts accessible and engaging. With experience in reading and critiquing dissertations, I offer valuable insights to enhance academic writing. Additionally, I assist students in crafting compelling personal statements for university applications in these fields. Join me to achieve your academic goals in a warm and supportive learning environment!
    Using interactive and engaging activities, we will explore whichever issues within the Britain, European and World, and Scottish topics you are focusing on. Each week, I always include quizzes on your chosen topics to assess your understanding at random points, and we start completing essay-style and past paper source questions from the get-go to ensure students are comfortable with the exam format. I have pre-made answer structures for each type of source question to simplify this part of the exam, and to ensure that students can pick up as many marks as possible. Having achieved 100% in both my National 5 and Higher History prelims and therefore obtaining the History award at my school, I know exactly how to get every mark available to students taking this exam. I also understand how to achieve a very good mark in the assignment which can give students a huge boost in terms of marks and confidence going into the final exam.
    As an experienced tutor specializing in French for GCSE and A-level, and SQA National 5 and Higher qualifications, I employ a creative approach using a variety of resources to make learning engaging and effective. My sessions are designed to help students not only excel in their exams but also to develop a deep appreciation for the French language. I am passionate about creating a warm and comfortable environment where students feel confident to practice and improve their skills. I also have experience teaching French to adult beginners, as well as the International GCSE qualification. Let's work together to achieve your French language goals with confidence and enthusiasm!
    SQA National 5 and Higher English are arguably the most important qualifications you undertake whilst in Secondary School in Scotland. In the lessons I run, I make powerpoints/pdfs each week that are tailored to the specific needs of students. We go through poems, short stories, or prose via interactive and engaging tasks to ensure a deep understanding of the text(s) is consolidated. I then always introduce past paper questions at the earliest point possible in order to ensure students are fully comfortable with the format of the exam, and to assess the extent to which they understand the text(s) they are studying. The same goes for the reading paper (RUAE) - I have pre-made answer structures for each type of question that can be asked for this paper, and I get students to apply these when answering past papers. I often ask students to write summaries, prepare essays, and/or answer past paper questions as homework.
