Online tutoring for students from seven to fifteen yearsHi, my name is Lekshmi and I have a bachelor's degree in Humanities (History, Philosophy, and English) and hold a master's degree in International Affairs. I specialised in Science in high school (Physics, Chemistry, Math, Biology) and in History for my undergraduate studies. I can do private tutoring for students from age seven to fifteen years in Math, Science, English, and Social Studies. I can help with school homework as well. I used to tutor my friends in school and would consider myself a teacher who can explain things well. As I am starting my professional journey in tutoring, I will focus more on your needs rather than have my own teaching system.
I look forward to hearing from you soon!

International Relations / Political Science / International Law / World PoliticsDo you need help with navigating the major schools of International Relations (realism, liberalism, constructivism)? Do you struggle with understanding the ongoing political developments on both global and domestic scales? Do the subtleties of International Law seem challenging? In my class, we can thoroughly unpack all the difficulties these questions pose.
I am a graduate student of International Relations at Central European University (CEU) in Vienna, Austria. The coursework I have undertaken during my undergraduate and graduate studies has allowed me to gain a comprehensive understanding of the following academic fields: International Relations, Political Science, and International Law. Additionally, my professional experience of working at the 73rd session of the United Nations General Assembly First Committee has awarded me first-hand inside knowledge of the most global international organization - the United Nations.

What is sociology? An introductory course on key conceptsThe course entitled ‘What is sociology?’ is taken from a textbook. The textbook is a comprehensive exploration of sociology, aimed at both students and educators. It explores various aspects of sociology and provides a rich understanding of social structures, institutions and their impact on human behaviour and the organisation of society. The course follows the same lines. It will cover, among other topics:
1- **Social structures and institutions** and their complex dynamics as well as institutions, highlighting their profound effects on human behaviour and the organisation of society. The importance of capturing these subtleties in order to better understand the evolution and transformation of society will be emphasised.
2- **Social Change and Movements**: We will explore the formidable forces of social change and the movements that shape human society. These movements reflect the aspirations and struggles of individuals and communities striving for a more equitable world.
3- **Sociology of Religion**: An overview will be given of how religion influences and is influenced by social structures, cultural values and individual experiences.
4- **Research Methodologies**: The essential role of research methodologies in sociology will be highlighted, including quantitative, qualitative, mixed methods, experimental and comparative approaches. These methodologies allow us to uncover valuable information about behaviour, structures and social transformations while respecting ethical principles designed to protect research participants and preserve the integrity of the research.
- Historical perspective**: We will also trace the historical trajectory of sociology as a dynamic discipline that adapts to an ever-changing social environment. Various perspectives will be combined to provide a holistic understanding of the social world, and inform initiatives to solve social problems and advocate for social equity.
Overall, the course provides a theoretical foundation for understanding key sociological concepts and their application to the analysis and resolution of societal complexities. It will be supplemented by practical exercises in content analysis, text intelligence, etc.

Political Communication, Public Speaking and PresentationThe course module is adapted to the student.
The summary will be communicated during the first lesson.
I teach you to speak and/or write with an approach to the sciences of political communication, international relations, social and human sciences while convincing the person(s) in front of you with several negotiation techniques.
▪️ The techniques used will improve your level of confidence in your public presentations and storytelling.
▪️ Political communication is about the creation and exchange of ideas and opinions between citizens, public officials, political institutions, and related entities, such as the media. It includes discourse throughout the political process in local, state, national, and international political systems, as well as how political information can be exploited for political ends or to achieve political goals. People with a background in political communication may work in policy advice, foreign service, market research, public relations, journalism, and digital media, community organizing, lobbying, political campaigning, or other related fields.
▪️ BUT! in order to achieve your goal you must master public speaking which is the process or act of giving a speech in front of a live audience. Public speaking is generally understood to be formal, face to face, speaking from a single person to a group of listeners.

A level Economics: Content, Structure and PerfectionA-level Economics is a significant step up from IGCSE and AS-level Economics. It can often seem daunting, leading some students to struggle with the basics and ultimately underperform. In the worst-case scenario, this can even extinguish their interest in a potentially rewarding career path.
This course takes an innovative approach to breaking down the fundamentals of economics using real-world examples to foster a deeper understanding of the subject matter. Additionally, students will gain valuable A-level tips and tricks to significantly boost their grades and aim for A* or A.
The course is led by Ameer Sarfarazhusain, a first-year student at the University of Warwick. The University is ranked among the top 5 universities in the UK for its Economics course and top 3 for employability in top investment banks. Ameer has over 5 years of experience in student leadership roles and has taught various subjects to high school students. As the founder of the AYEP, he also delivers environmental economics classes to young people across the MENA region. AYEP has even partnered with the United Nations to contribute youth policy inputs to COP28 in Dubai.
In conclusion, this course will expertly unravel the complexities of A-level Economics, setting students up for success and potentially opening doors to a fulfilling career.

Bilingualism and Code-Switching: by popular demandIn these neuro-divergent times, the binary division of "one language or two" in bilinguals is perhaps due some contestation, which students are capable of providing. I have always found bilingual production models (and the ubiquitous Powerpoint slide) that university teachers provide a hindrance because of their lack of explicitness and discussion - they are just not relatable as presented nor do they provide much information or examples for monolingual students.
Code-switching, a by-product of bilingualism, is now a term that is even found in minority-ethnic neighbourhood grafitti ("can white people code-switch" a found example). Please note that this is a linguistic term, used for switching between two languages, and not between local or social varieties of English.
My personal position is that there is no such thing as bilingualism: there is always a language that suffers attrition, and one language that prevails, mostly because of its prestigious standing over the other language. On the other hand, a child exposed to more than one language cannot be truly monolingual.
For this course (very popular at universities around Europe both at undergraduate and postgraduate level) we shall go through the terms used to discuss bilingualism, in detail, and then discuss, with the help of published books and articles, who can be considered bilingual (or are we all, one other language lying dormant?). Can bilingualism be defined by the speaker, instead of the "community"? Can it be imposed by the State? Does a bilingual brain function in the same manner as a monolingual brain? These are research questions that emerge as dissertation or thesis topics both at undergraduate and postgraduate courses.
