    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.

    PROFESSIONAL SUPPORT IN HIS JOB SEARCH / CAREER TRANSITION, ESPECIALLY DURING COVID19
    Adapted to each case and need, the objective is support in accessing a job, from the search for departure to the signing of the contract: - After the search and selection of relevant advertisements, establish and illustrate your transversal skills profile then create an attractive CV and write a striking cover letter highlighting your professional background - stand out in the preparation of their interviews, from oral presentation to expression through appropriate body language. Interview simulation & video analysis filmed if necessary. - Identify your values, promote your professional project / your assets and strengths but also work on areas for improvement in order to find new momentum in your career. Note that during the videoconference session, all the notes are transcribed in the chat so that you can access them at any time when you wish. Statistically, the progression following these private sessions is quickly noticeable, from 2 sessions. (study 2020) PLACES : - Locations: Geneva - Lausanne - Friborg - Neuchâtel - Montreux - Basel - Sion - Sierre - Morges - Bienne. But currently and until further notice, only by videoconference in accordance with national recommendations on Covid. These sessions also seem perfectly unanimous since they have the advantages of direct (example: quality of the interaction), without its disadvantages (example: loss of travel time) with additional advantages (example: chat notes that can be read later). In this context, these videoconference sessions for which you have requested me, seem to suit everyone perfectly, take place in a very optimal way and generate a certain enthusiasm (and a certain enthusiasm). That is why, at your request, I continue to offer this option. Take good care of yourself and yours.
