I have 600+ hours of experience as a tutor, studied English at Oxford, have a Masters in Philosophy and I’m a historical novelist.

I help students at GCSE & A Level who are struggling with humanities subjects ahead of their exams. I have worked with students of all abilities and aptitudes, my priority is making sure they understand the subject, what the work is asking them to provide and can deliver it appropriately.

Most of all, I understand that struggling at school can be frustrating or intimidating so I do my best to ensure that learning feels relaxed and fun.

About Me

I’m a novelist, currently also a neuroscience grad student with a former life as a corporate executive at Accenture. I write forgotten histories about communities overlooked across time. My first book In the Palace of Flowers was set in Iran, named one of Times Radio’s top 5 books of the year, a Harvard special recommendation and named to African Arguments’ Best Books of 2021. My last essay for Granta was declared Best of the Literary Internet by LitHub and endorsed by Pen/Faulkner.

The “forgotten” is a central facet of my life and work. Tutoring is about focusing and attending to students who need more support that they are receiving in their class or have ambitions that cannot be catered to in the classroom, or are not able to access a traditional classroom. My tutoring practice is thus centred on the comfort, ease and needs of the student. I prioritise making them feel seen, visible, dignified because that is when their confidence and capabilities will shine. It is in these settings that they begin to thrive.

Education

My degrees in order. I began my academic career at Oxford University, MA Oxon in English Language and Literature.
UCL, MA in Philosophy
KCL MSc in Neuroscience — currently ongoing

University English Instructor| Started teaching English 9 years ago| Specializing in Conversational English.

My teaching approach is designed to develop communication skills above all. We watch or read materials, such as videos, articles, stories, poems, caricatures, then discuss them; we act out situations from everyday life; we take positions and practice debates. However, this doesn’t mean that we just practice speaking. I also make sure the learner is not running in circles. I’m here to ensure that they do not keep repeating the same mistakes or keep using the same expressions over and over in conversation.
In order to keep making progress, I take my student on a journey that involves:
• Improving their grammar.
• Fixing their pronunciation.
• Enriching their vocabulary by learning to use new words and common idioms.
By the end of this course, you should be able to speak English fluently and confidently.

PS: Because of my academic specialty, I also help with academic writing and creative writing.

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.

English is the quintessential global language, used almost everywhere and in everyday life. It's becoming increasingly mainstream, especially among children, thanks to memes like 6-7. English-language videos go much more viral on TikTok and Instagram, naturally raising the question of whether speaking the language is advantageous. Many claim to be able to speak English simply by watching short videos, but ultimately, a deeper understanding is crucial. I studied English from third to tenth grade at a grammar school and consistently earned top marks. I've always been passionate about languages, having grown up bilingual at home, speaking Vietnamese and German, and learning three additional foreign languages at school: English, French, and Spanish. I would be thrilled if you'd give my English course a try ;)
