About Me

Hello,

My name is Luiza Sommer and I'm currently a student in Leiden University. I am Brazilian but have lived abroad for many years, hence have grown up in an international environment. I am both friendly and firm, so will push you to the best of your abilities.

I completed the IB with a total of 36 points, with my best performing classes being ESS SL, English Language, and Literature HL, and Portuguese HL. Therefore, I will be able to assist you in both knowledge questions and also essay questions. You will learn how to best structure your answers in order to achieve full marks!

In case you have any urgent inquiries please shoot me a message on Apprentus. I will gladly help!

Education

I graduated from Graded School - The American School of São Paulo with a total of 3 diplomas; IB, Brazilian and American. I achieved many awards during my academic life, including the ESS IB Excellence award for two consecutive years. Furthermore, I also wrote my EE on ESS and received a final grade of B.

Currently, I am pursuing a bachelor degree in International Relations and Organizations in the Netherlands in Leiden University. As well as this, I also minor in Business Administration.

Experience / Qualifications

I have leadership experience as I was the leader of many of my high school clubs. This has also given me planning and organizational skills.

Very informative
If you need extra help with ESS SL in the IB, this is your chance! Here you will get tips on how to do your IA and exams. Most specifically, how to answer the essay style questions in both Paper 1 and Paper 2! A little about myself: I was top of my class in ESS for the two consecutive IB years and also did my EE on ESS!
Bachelor theses are usually the last step needed for a student to graduate. Such task is challenging and requires dedication and focus. Therefore, I offer to give you some guidance and feedback on your thesis. It is important to have a second reader who has never read your thesis before and may not be as knowledgeable in your chosen topic as it provides new insight which you may have overlooked yourself. I have recently graduated myself, with a political science degree and international relations specialization, and have gone through this process. My thesis focused on exploring the relationship between democratic systems and voter turnout. Therefore, if you are writing your thesis on a similar research area, I can also recommend great academic literature and further feedback!

Do you want to start speaking Portuguese? The second most beautiful language in the world
The best way to speak a language is not by learning boring grammar rules; the best way is to start having routine conversations, and gradually get comfortable. With experience in Brazil and Portugal, if you want to get into the Portuguese language, I can help you to start speaking the second most beautiful language in the world, a language very similar to Spanish. Apart from the grammar and vocabulary that I will provide you, we will have conversations, and why not, even listen to songs.
