About Me
My name is Francesca, and I am half Italian and half British, though I was born and raised in Italy. I hold a Bachelor's degree in International Relations from Leiden University, where I graduated cum laude.

Currently, I am completing a Research Master's program in Political Communication at the University of Amsterdam and a one-year Master's in Political Science at Leiden University. With a strong academic background in Political and Communication Science, coupled with practical expertise in essay writing and research methods, I am well-equipped to tutor high school and university students in their coursework and help them achieve their academic goals. Moreover, my role as a Teaching Assistant at the University of Amsterdam has equipped me with specialized expertise in tutoring university students.

Additionally, I offer English and Italian lessons for all levels, including preparation for language certifications.

Feel free to reach out with any questions or to discuss how I can assist you in your learning journey. I look forward to hearing from you!

Vincent Van Gogh once said something to the effect that greatness is a series of little things coming together, Emile Durkheim the great French sociologist first 'coined', "the whole is more than the sum of its parts" and Montesquieu conceived of laws in relation to climate.

What do all of these have to do with each other? The fact that the interpretation and understanding of one of the realms of socio-political knowledge is not enough to either understand that single discipline of study whether it be Law, History, Political Science, Economics, Sociology or Philosophy- you cannot separate any from the whole and be able to understand the Short, Nasty,BrutishTM nature that reality is and that conditions human life.

While my studies and work have nigh been exclusively related to Law, my interests which pushed me there were/are seemingly very different. Through my experience I may humbly submit that the the perspectives that each discipline approaches problems with are crucial in solving very distinct "linguistic" problems within their specific paradigms. They however are victims of dogma as is academia in general it would be fair to say. Living in the times we do, it is not only necessary as a basic informational issue but as an issue of responsible citizenry, young adults must be well educated about the political economy.

Whether you're looking to study and/or are currently studying and/or want to learn about any of the aforementioned subjects whether in conjunction with current coursework and/or assignments, or if you're just interested and would like to learn about a specific period in time, this is for you.

Hello parents! My name is Sandra. I am a native English speaker from New York State. I have a USA teaching license and a Bachelor's Degree in Childhood Inclusive Education (Grades K-6 and Students with Disabilities) from the State University of New York at Fredonia. My experiences include teaching at primary international schools in Belgrade, Serbia for 2 years and 3 years at international schools in The Hague, Netherlands. I have worked at two IB primary schools. Alongside teaching at international schools, I have 8 years of experience teaching English. I also have experience teaching grade 1 and 3 in elementary schools in New York State. I have taught children from 2-17 years old and adults. My students range in levels from beginners who are new to learning English, to fluent English speakers that need support or would like to further excel or maintain their fluency. Based on my experiences, I have learned to adjust my teaching style based on different students' needs, cultures, socioeconomic backgrounds, and learning abilities.

Lessons are provided to children and teenagers. Lessons are customized to the learning needs of your child. Whether that be learning English for the first time or practicing improvement of speaking, reading, comprehension, pronunciation, listening, writing, grammar, etc. Lessons can be aimed towards learning a topic such as food, animals, sports, emotions, and more.

For children who are fluent English speakers, tutoring can be given to further excel in particular areas. Subjects that interest the student such as science, history or world topics can be incorporated into the lesson to broaden their knowledge. Support can also be provided in learning organizational skills, research, and mini projects for older children. I am available to help with studying, homework, or school projects. For online learning, I use a variety of platforms, websites, educational games, and e-books to reach the learning goals of my students. Additional homework can be provided if requested.

Depending on the students age, lesson duration is adjusted. If you are looking for lessons for siblings, please reach out to me to discuss the best schedule for your children. My aim is to create a positive and enjoyable learning environment for all my students.

I hope you can join my English lessons! Please reach out to me if you have any questions. I can provide my resume or reference letters if requested. Looking forward to hearing from you.

Welcome to my Maths, Physics and Science tutoring class, crafted especially for young minds preparing for IB MYP, IGCSE, and GCSE exams. As a passionate learner and dedicated tutor, I am committed to helping students not only comprehend but also develop a love for these captivating subjects. Here's what you can anticipate from my tutoring sessions

Personalised Learning: Every learner is unique, and I believe in tailoring my teaching methods to suit each student's individual needs. I don't judge; instead, I concentrate on understanding their strengths and areas for improvement to create a supportive and encouraging learning environment.

Concept Breakdown: I dissect complex topics into simpler, more manageable parts, making it easier for students to grasp challenging concepts and build a strong foundation in Physics and Science.

Student-Centred Approach: I enjoy teaching students and continually strive to ignite their curiosity and passion for learning. I aim to make each lesson engaging and enjoyable, helping students recognise the real-world applications of what they learn.

Shared Strategies: As a student who has successfully qualified for the Engineering Entrance exam test and is currently studying abroad on a fully funded scholarship, I bring my own learning strategies and study techniques to the table. These proven methods will help students achieve their academic goals.

Continuous Improvement: I am always learning and growing, just like my students. This continuous improvement mindset, which I actively promote, inspires and motivates students to strive for their best. It enables me to stay updated with the latest educational trends and techniques, ensuring that my students receive the best possible guidance.

Supportive Environment: I encourage students to ask questions, no matter how trivial they might seem. By creating a friendly and comfortable atmosphere, I ensure that students feel comfortable and open to express their doubts and curiosities, leading to a deeper understanding of the subjects.
