    Academic Writing: How To Ace Your Essay Assignment

    As an academic writing tutor at my university, I hear a lot of "Writing Essays is frustrating and time-consuming" - But it is really about the right methods. Once you know how to approach an academic essay or research project and identify the next steps, it can even become an enjoyable task that demands and stimulates your creativity.

    Let me help you to be this efficient! Let's make sure sure you avoid plagiarism, cherry-picking and other academic no-gos, while writing concise, sophisticated and informative at the same time.

    Contact me for social yet productive way to get your work done and get the most out of your essay.

    Extra information

    You will only need a functioning laptop. And maybe a version of the essay (if you already have any), printed or digital!

    About Me

    I genuinely enjoy Writing - in both academic and creative contexts. For this reason, I believe to have become a good and passionte essay writer.
    I have had tutoring positions 1 on 1 and in larger groups since I attended high school, in English (grammar and essay writing), Mathematics, German (essay writing) and Latin (grammar and translation).

    Currently, I have a university staff position as a writing tutor and I love this job. The main reason why I am here!

    Something more personal about me:
    - I grew up in Hamburg
    - 21 years old
    - I am half Chinese/German
    - Apart from Writing, I enjoy drawing, playing the piano and good music in general.

    Education

    Bachelor's Graduate of Leiden University College's Liberal Arts and Sciences Programme, where I specialized in Culture, History, Society.

    Currently a first-year Dual Master's candidate of Sciences Po Paris and FU Berlin. At Sciences Po, I am studying Human Rights and Humanitarian Action, while I will study Political Science at FU Berlin.

    Experience / Qualifications

    - Tutor position at "Schüler helfen Schüler" during high school (English, Mathematics, German, Latin)
    - Leiden University staff position as an academic writing tutor
    Let me help you learn Mandarin as your 2nd, 3rd or 4th language. Depending on your level and your desired focus, I can teach you how to: - Master the 4 different DENOTING TONES - Read and pronounce PIN YIN (Romanized Spelling System) - Read and pronounce Mandarin Characters (simplified and traditional) - Enrich your VOCABULARY - Structure sentences, tenses, grammar - Learn and understand OLD SAWS/SPRICHWÖRTER - Practice talking and CONVERSATIONS - Understand CULTURAL sensitivities and POLITENESS during encounters with native speakers I myself am a native speaker. However, my Dad is German and has acquired Mandarin as his 3rd language. Moreover, I grew up in Germany, so my mom had to teach me how to especially read and write. Therefore, I know how non-natives should approach the study of this language - listening, reading, writing and speaking!
    Let me proofread, correct your essay/draft or even transform your mere thoughts/bulletpoints into an elaborate text. I was hired by Leiden University College's Writing Studio to help undergrade students in any form of academic writing. Usually I helped Bachelor students with starting and finishing their research papers, but also proofread other forms of essays, motivation letters and CVs. I helped at any stage - with brainstorming, formulating the research question, structuring the argumentation, the conclusion, correcting grammar/formatting mistakes, or I improved essays in their stylistic/rhetoric quality. So let me know what type of improvement your work needs and I will have a look.

    Online English and Spanish Classes with a Native Speaker!
    Hello! Everyone would describe me as an enthusiastic person, and I do have a very cheerful personality, and I’ll reflect this in my classes as a way to encourage you to express yourself in any of these languages and lose your fears. I love teaching my students and exposing them to diverse cultural aspects and also learning about other places with them. I like to teach my students some standard English or Spanish content through writing and reading activities, but my favorite part is giving you access to conversational everyday language, so your vocabulary and other competencies can expand and you can become a fluent and confident speaker. I am here to personalize my teaching methods according to your learning style, expectations and goals. Whether it is Conversational, professional English, or if you want to improve your grammar and reading skills. I cannot wait to see you in class soon.

    Be the best in Mathematics and English with personal assessment.
    Providing coaching for upskilling in mathematics and English Grammar is my core function. Boost the students for better challenges is my major aspect. Happy to help with the entrance exam and test-related Mathematics. Mathematics is the only subject that is learned in all of the fields of study. As a mathematician, I personally believe that maths is an easier subject to learn if you are taught in proper ways and methods. Also, English is the only language that is spoken in the whole world. The easiest way to learn English is to prefer grammar at first sight and then keep using and practicing. For better tomorrow, start learning these crucial challenges.

    Portuguese for vacationers, careers or tutoring
    For career, vacation or tutoring - Hamburg Whether for Brazil, Portugal or anywhere else. Beginner or advanced, I adapt to the requirements. I am also happy to help consolidate and expand existing knowledge. Portuguese is my 2nd mother tongue. Conversation is the first and certainly the most important step in learning a foreign language. My teaching is based on it, without neglecting the grammar. Form simple sentences, that's what it's all about at the beginning: How do I ask questions about everyday life? How do I greet people abroad? How do I say or understand the time, days of the week, seasons, etc ...? How do I find my way? Which bus or train should I take? How do I order something to eat? What does this or that cost ...? Learn what you need when you meet abroad! Individual students, groups or companies. I come to you (in Hamburg). On-line (Skype) is also an option - especially during the "Corona Days".

    English Tutoring, lets get you comfortable in all scenarios of English
    I am an English speaking native from New Zealand. I have learnt both styles of English from America and England because as a New Zealander we learn and use both. My goal would be to get you comfortable with understanding, speaking, reading and writing english at a good level and to work on anything specific that you are interested in. From the start I would like to know the best way you learn, your main goals, so we can build our lesson structure around that. Currently I work in a full time job where I am the only native english speaker in the company, so my understanding of German is at a level of B1. Never the less what ever level your English is we will find a way to improve it.
