GCSE English literature and GCSE/A-level sociology

A high achieving Year 13 student, with a successful track record of tutoring KS3 pupils in Engllish literature and KS3/A-level sociology. I have achieved grade 8 in GCSE English literature and grade 9 in GCSE sociology. My English classes will involve reading and in-depth analysis of texts; asking prompting questions and most importantly, helping students to master exam techniques in order to achieve the top grades. Recently completed my A-levels in sociology and therefore confident with the curriculum. My sociology classes will involve teaching important sociologists there is to know about; helping pupils to understand key concepts; and how to write essays under timed conditions that will secure the A/A*. Both of my classes will also involve set homework and regular assessments to track progress.

An approachable, proactive, and supportive individual. Seeking tutoring opportunities to inspire
young minds, create positive impacts, and motivate pupils to build a rewarding future.

Latin as a Living Language: from Zero to Cicero. Latin for Linguists and Polyglots
💜 Salvē quīcumque haec legis et linguam Latīnam discere cupis! 💜 Greetings to you, dear reader of these lines! Some say that I have travelled here from Ancient Rome to help bring the Latin language back to life. "But", you say, "Latin is dead and has been for 1.5 millenia!" If that's what you think, let me change your mind! =) I offer classes for all levels and topics, including but not limited to: ◈ Latin for complete beginners taught through guided reading and discussion, with a minimum of translation. You will be using the language to learn the language from the beginning; ◈ Latin for those who have studied grammar, but still don't know the language itself; ◈ Latin for those ready to approach non-adapted literature; ◈ Latin for those who can already read, but want to learn to speak and use the language actively; ◈ Latin for those who want to understand poetry (from Virgil and Plautus right up to modern Latin poets) and quantitative metrics intuitively, in the same way as they were understood by the Romans themselves; ◈ Latin for researchers, historians and anyone working with Latin texts and primary sources or writing academic papers; ◈ Latin for linguists: I have deep theoretical and practical knowledge of the phonetics and phonology of Latin as well as Latin historical linguistics. ◈ Latin for those not ready to commit, but interested in learning the Reconstructed Classical Pronunciation. Or the traditional Italian (aka Ecclesiastical), or the Germanic-Slavic, or even the Middle French pronunciation - whatever takes your fancy :-) ◈ conversational Latin and composition practice. 💡 About me and my lessons: I've long been part of the international community of Latin speakers, have produced videos in Latin and resources for learning it, as well co-authoring a graded poetry reader "Erictho: Tartarorum Terror" aimed at students who wish to transition away from reading adapted texts and tackle authentic poetry without the help of dictionaries or translation. Thanks to my deep interest in phonetics and phonology, I have put major emphasis on researching, modelling and teaching the sounds and rhythms of Republican Latin speech in order to make Latin poetry and prose sound the way the authors intended. I teach Latin through Latin using the singular series "Lingua Latina Per Se Illustrata" as well as various adapted and authentic texts. The goal of my lessons is simple: holistic acquisition of the language in order to allow you, the learner, to read Latin fluently, understand it at a deep level, and be able to communicate in it should the opportunity arise. Except at early stages, grammar instruction will also take place in Latin. ༻❁༺༻❁༺༻❁༺ Приветствую тебя, кто читаешь эти строки! Есть мнение, что я явился сюда из Древнего Рима, чтобы помочь воскресить из мёртвых латинский язык. Не веришь, что на латыни сегодня вообще кто-то говорит? Позволь мне тебя переубедить! =) Я предлагаю занятия любого уровня и тематики, включая: ◈ с полного нуля через чтение, обсуждение и спонтанную речь с первых занятий, с минимумом перевода; ◈ для тех, кто выучил грамматику, но до сих пор не знает язык; ◈ для тех, кто переходит к чтению неадаптированной литературы; ◈ для тех, кто уже умеет читать, но хочет научиться говорить и использовать латынь активно; ◈ для тех, кто хочет понять латинскую поэзию (от Вергилия и Плавта вплоть до современных латинских поэтов) и квантитативную метрику, как понимали её носители; ◈ для исследователей, историков и всех, кто работает с латинскими текстами и первоисточниками и пишет академические работы; ◈ для лингвистов: историческое языкознание, фонетика и фонология латинского, в которых я не только первоклассно разбираюсь, но владею близко к совершенству. ◈ для тех, кто лишь интересуется языком и хочет по крайней мере выучить аутентичное, восстановленное произношение классического латинского (или традиционное итальянское, германо-российское, да хоть среднефранцузское, хехе); ◈ практика разговорной речи и упражнения в сочинении. 💡 Обо мне и моих уроках: Я давно являюсь частью международного сообщества латинистов, делаю видео на латинском и стал соавтором graded reader (3х-уровневой читалки) поэзии Лукана под названием «Erictho: Tartarorum Terror» для тех, кто желает сделать шаг от адаптированных текстов к чтению классической поэзии. Я преподаю латынь через латынь с использованием несравненной серии «Lingua Latina Per Se Illustrata» и множества других адаптированных и аутентичных текстов; большое внимание уделяю произношению и ритму языка. За исключением начальной стадии, грамматика тоже будет объясняться на латинском, откуда к нам и пришла ;-) Цель наших занятий простая: целостное и всестороннее освоение языка с тем, чтобы читать любые латинские тексты без перевода и злоупотребления словарём, с естественной лёгкостью и эстетическим удовольствием. А при возможности и поддержать беседу на латинском - ведь таких возможностей становится всё больше! 𓆩♡𓆪

French private lessons by university graduate in Letters
Holder of a Master's degree in Letters and endowed with a solid experience in private lessons, I provide French lessons for students wishing to: - consolidate their bases in grammar, spelling - improve their language skills (allophone students) - improve their speaking skills (conversation classes) -profect the written expression - prepare for ECR exams - prepare for the written examinations at the end of the studies (maturity, certificate of completion) - help with the writing of works of maturity (or other works of end of studies), of dissertation - work on argumentative texts - acquire a method to analyze literary texts - learn how to perform bibliographic research The course material is a Google Docs document that I create in which my explanations, possible links, exercises appear. By reading it regularly, progress will be faster. It can also be used in addition to other documents (files printed by school teachers and/or books) and has many advantages: automatic updating, downloadable on tablets and smartphones, simultaneous monitoring of what is writing. For help with writing: The objective is above all to acquire effective tools. The student will thus be able to learn to structure his ideas, argue coherently (and convincingly) and enrich his vocabulary. It is essential for me to have written work from the student between each lesson. For analyzes of oral literary texts: In order to optimize the time available (and to put ourselves in conditions closest to oral exams), we choose together an extract from a work that the student will have previously prepared before the lesson. This would take around 20 minutes at most, and ideally just a little before the meeting time. If necessary, I have the habit of taking a paragraph at random which would serve as a basis for analyzing a passage. For the corrections of end of studies work: so that the meeting with the student is at the most profitable, I ask him to send me his writings before the meeting. Apart from my presence with the student, any course involves a preparation time before and after the lesson, including the work that I correct. My goal is to design an individualized course, so I take the time to write detailed comments on corrected work or tips to ensure maximum success for everyone. For example, an editorial correction can easily be the subject of a detailed commentary of 4 typewritten pages. For adults (FLE): In order to optimally prepare the first ones, I take the initiative to inform myself in advance of their objectives / expectations. Whether to practice speaking in everyday life, the professional world or to practice oral presentations, I prepare either PPT or technical sheets in advance that I send by mail ( after booking on the website). The other alternative is to make a PV of the course that I send (or that I print). Giving importance to keeping a written record on the one hand to better memorize the topics covered, on the other hand to better assimilate the spelling. Of a general nature, a concrete situation that responds to the learner's needs is the starting point. From this situation, I address the essential grammatical points.

Philosophical and/or Sociological Theory: Tailored Lessons and Guided Study
This class offers personalized instruction in philosophical and/or sociological theory, suited both for students seeking academic support and for individuals with a general interest in a philosophical topic. Sessions are designed according to the student’s goals, whether it’s clarifying course material, preparing written assignments, or exploring theoretical texts independently.

Sessions can be focused on specific authors or movements (e.g. Plato, Spinoza, feminist theory), or organized thematically around concepts such as love, beauty, perception, or subjectivity. The goal is to foster rigorous but accessible understanding, with attention to both conceptual clarity and historical context.

Albanian classes for natives and foreigners of all ages
Learning Albanian is a meaningful way to connect with a unique language, culture, and history. For members of the diaspora born outside the country, speaking Albanian helps preserve cultural identity and strengthens ties with family, heritage, and community. For tourists and international learners, knowing Albanian opens up a more authentic travel experience, allowing deeper conversations with locals, access to hidden gems, and a genuine appreciation of Albania’s rich landscapes and hospitality. As a language spoken across Albania, Kosovo, and parts of the Balkans, it also provides insight into a region full of diversity and history. In this class we can learn basic Albanian words but also share insights of the Albanian culture and traditions.

French courses - language and literature - for secondary school students, literature students and adults (FLE)
The courses are aimed at high school students, literature students, and adults learning French (FLE). Through courses tailored to their needs, learners will consolidate their French skills, either from a strictly linguistic or literary perspective. As for the language, we will be able to work on different aspects: grammar, conjugation, syntax rules, written and oral expression. More experienced learners, in rhetoric and at university, will be able to consolidate their skills in written expression and literary analysis. It is about progressing realistically and at the learner's own pace, and developing methods that allow for long-term improvement.

Marie
A practice-oriented German course or tutoring for students.
In my class I will teach German through conversation and reading literature together. It is a very practical course that focuses on using the German language. The focus can also be on everyday conversations. I am happy to adapt to your needs. I would choose the literature according to your language skills and interests. I also offer tutoring for students who need help with homework or more general tutoring on grammar and vocabulary.

Mandarin Through Stories, Culture, and Communication!
Learning Mandarin can be joyful, imaginative, and deeply meaningful—for children, teenagers, and adults alike. In my class, students will not only build a strong foundation in Mandarin Chinese, but also develop an appreciation for Chinese culture, literature, and ways of thinking. Whether we are practicing everyday conversation, exploring a traditional tale, or discussing a Chinese poem, I adapt each lesson to fit the learner’s age, level, and interests. I bring a background in literary studies and a passion for communication to every session. For younger learners, I create playful, engaging lessons that build confidence and curiosity. For teens and adults, I offer thoughtful, structured guidance that opens the door to both fluency and cultural insight. Every class is a chance to connect—not only with the language, but with the stories and people behind it.

Tips and Tricks for Sociology Essay Writing, Targeted to GCSE and AS/A Level Students.
I am eager to help young people feel confident when writing sociology essays. I will place an emphasis on deconstructing the questions students are given by encouraging them to reword the question to offer a different perspective on it. In addition, the main aim of a sociology essay is to convince the reader more and more of the argument you have claimed in the introduction. I want to help students do this by helping them follow the PEAL structure, i.e. Point, Evidence, Analysis, Link back to question. I have found this a very effective and coherent way of structuring an essay. I have studied Sociology for 7 years now, at AS/A Level, Undergraduate Level and now at MSc level at LSE. I was awarded First-Class Honours in my undergraduate as well as 'Best Dissertation of the year' by the School of Humanities and Social Sciences. I am seeking a potential career in academia so I truly feel passionate about engaging with the lesson plans on this platform and helping students feel confident in their essay writing.
