The Social Sciences, Philosophy and Academic Writing.

Àpd 49.84 € /h

A mature and serious postgraduate with international experience and vast repertoire of skills to impart to young learners and future academics, I seek to significantly improve confidence, performance and achievement.

In my approach I study the challenges with the client and together set out a plan with a guiding timeline to reach goals and targets.

I work to harness the student ability to digest complex and technical information to succeed in their academic career. The ability to focus, work to competing deadlines are habits that can be nurtured. Trust and rapport are the foundation to good learning atmosphere.

Having worked in student services, course administration and tutored/mentored at University, I have become well rounded in the field of education.

Coming from an ethnic background I understand cultural sensitivity and tact when dealing with sensitive matters and for most young students I easily build a rapport to gain their trust and respect.

During my work experience I have acquired excellent time management skills, as well as interpersonal, relationship building and communication skills (written and oral), not to mention a keen eye for detail.

French and (British) English native. I spent the past 6 years in London studying Politics and lived in Paris for a year to undertake internships in Finance. I am now back in London for the first semester of my Master's in Management until August.

I have 5+ years of experience tutoring students of various ages (from 4 to 40+) as I used to work free lance for the tutoring company Enjoy Education based in Chelsea. There I tutored French, English, Business, Political Science, Political Economy and Social Pyschology.

I also spent a year as a headhunter in the financial sector and can help with applications and CVs.

Bonjour,

Etudiant à HEC Paris, je suis actuellement à Londres en double diplôme avec UCL où je vais étudier durant un semestre. Je propose des cours particuliers de français, philosophie et mathématiques aux collégiens, lycéens, étudiants et adultes souhaitant combler certaines lacunes.

Après avoir obtenu mon baccalauréat Scientifique mention Très Bien (spécialité mathématiques), j’ai effectué ma classe préparatoire ECS dans un grand lycée parisien, où j’ai étudié les mathématiques, le français, la philosophie et l'histoire à un niveau soutenu durant deux années.

J’ai par ailleurs aidé plusieurs élèves de différents niveaux (lycée, classes prépa, université, adultes) dans les matières mentionnées plus haut.

Je peux me déplacer dans tout Londres afin de dispenser mes cours.

N’hésitez pas à me contacter pour plus d'informations (CV, horaires etc.)

Bien à vous,

Idris

I specialise in academic writing, english as a second language, ghost writing, creative writing, poetry, philosophy and art.
The course can be tailored to meet the needs of students who wish to fine tune their academic writing work in any subject, delve deeper into literary analysis, philosophical and theoretical explorations applied to interdisciplinary subject areas, and for those who wish to have an interlocutor, mentor, editor or muse to guide them through their own creative process.

Hello, after having done a preparatory literary class, I am currently in the last year of philosophy and art history at UCL. I have been supporting students in the preparation of the French baccalaureate, philosophy and history-geography for several years. Through personalized support, I help them acquire a solid methodology for the baccalaureate exams. These courses aim to overcome the difficulties they encounter in class as well as to allow them to gain confidence in their academic capacities and their ability to develop complex thinking.

Hello,

I offer one-to-one private tuition to university students and adults in Political Science, Essay/Dissertation-writing, Political Economy, Economics, and European Studies.

I have 15 years of experience in high-quality private tuition, and I am also a Lecturer in EU Politics at one of the world’s leading universities (University College London).

My main areas of specialization are European Union politics and political economy, but I also regularly teach all other areas of Political Science, including Public Policy, Comparative Politics, Introduction to Politics, Populism, Democratisation, and many more. In addition, I teach Economics at a beginner/intermediate level.

I can also help with dissertations and essays, at the undergraduate, Master or Ph.D. level. As I supervise and mark UCL students ' dissertations throughout the year, I am able to give you the marker's perspective and help you ensure that you obtain a top mark. In addition, I am experienced in helping adult learners who want to improve their skills in Political Science or basic Economics, for professional or personal reasons.

Teaching is an activity that I deeply enjoy, and for which I have great enthusiasm. I was recently nominated for the Award for Outstanding Teaching by the UCL Students' Union. The feedback which I received from students taught in the past was very positive. In particular, I was told that my teaching had inspired students, and had made complex subjects appear simple and interesting.

My approach to teaching is results-focused. I first discuss with the student what are his/her objectives (this may be achieving top marks on a final exam, being able to undertake exercises given as homework, or increasing their understanding of certain aspects of a subject). We then devise together a work plan, to ensure that the student meets those goals.

This approach has been very successful in the past, as it is not only important to understand a certain subject, but also to be prepared for the particular type of examination or assessment that the student will need to face.

I have a Ph.D. in Political Economy from Utrecht University, a master's in European Studies from the College of Europe in Bruges, and a degree in Economics from the London School of Economics (LSE).

I teach either in person in London (ideally at UCL), or via email exchanges for written advice. Unfortunately I do not offer online classes.

This class is designed for anyone eager to explore the intricate and interconnected political systems of the UK, European Union, and the United States. In this course, we will delve into the unique political landscapes of these regions and understand how they shape global politics, influence international relations, and impact global policy.
Through dynamic discussions, analysis of current events, and deep dives into political theories, students will gain a comprehensive understanding of how political systems in these three regions function. You’ll learn about the political history, governance structures, and policy challenges each region faces today.
Whether you're interested in understanding the UK's post-Brexit political shifts, the complexities of EU politics, or the influence of the US on global diplomacy, this course provides the knowledge and tools to analyze and engage with these major political forces. Get ready to gain new insights into the ever-evolving political world! All levels welcome!

It is true that the philosopher is the friend of wisdom, but above all, he is someone who does not want to make mistakes in reasoning. Philosophizing is a way of reasoning and a way of solving problems that will never have a perfect and definitive solution. Knowing the distance between the Earth and the Moon is not a problem of philosophy, because it is enough to measure to solve it. On the other hand, knowing, for example, what justice is, is a problem of philosophy. A meter will not be able to help us know the answer. We must go about it differently, and in the courses I offer, I will teach you how.

You will learn

- text reading strategies
- case studies with the aim of learning from experts
- methodology in philosophy
- writing an essay
- writing a text commentary
- a work on the philosophers of your choice
- an overview of the history of philosophy
- the general culture necessary to be able to philosophize

I will adapt to your individual needs. Each course is tailor-made. We will analyze where your difficulties lie and together develop a course program that will make you perform as quickly as possible. The basic principle of the courses I offer is dialectics, like Plato's dialogues: reflecting together, making theoretical contributions, asking questions and seeking answers, and testing the validity of reasoning.

For the past 10 years, I have been teaching German using the philosophy methodology, having studied philosophy at the Master's level at Aix-Marseille University. It turns out that the analytical mind is very useful even outside the confines of philosophy. Today, there are even fields of activity such as management with philosophy or philotherapy. In recent years, some German students have asked me to also teach them philosophy courses, and that is why I decided to offer philosophy courses directly.

I look forward to meeting you during a first lesson.
