About Me
Hello! My name is Claire and I have recently graduated from the University of Edinburgh. I have been an online tutor for over three years now, and I specialise in French, History, English, and Sociology. I enjoy creating a comfortable and productive environment in which my students improve their confidence as well as their academic and/or linguistic ability. I thoroughly enjoy what I do, and I find passing on my enthusiasm for a subject immensely satisfying.Education

Experience / Qualifications

Languages: English (native), French (B2), Spanish (A2)
As an experienced tutor specializing in English as a Second Language (ESL) classes, I bring creativity and a wealth of diverse resources to each session. My teaching approach is tailored to make learning both effective and enjoyable, ensuring that students feel supported and motivated. I am dedicated to creating a warm and comfortable environment where students can confidently practice and improve their English skills. I have experience teaching all levels of English, including preparing students for exams to enter universities and more. Join me, and let's embark on an engaging journey to learning - and one day mastering - the English language together!
Using interactive and engaging activities, we will explore whichever issues within the Britain, European and World, and Scottish topics you are focusing on. Each week, I always include quizzes on your chosen topics to assess your understanding at random points, and we start completing essay-style and past paper source questions from the get-go to ensure students are comfortable with the exam format. I have pre-made answer structures for each type of source question to simplify this part of the exam, and to ensure that students can pick up as many marks as possible. Having achieved 100% in both my National 5 and Higher History prelims and therefore obtaining the History award at my school, I know exactly how to get every mark available to students taking this exam. I also understand how to achieve a very good mark in the assignment which can give students a huge boost in terms of marks and confidence going into the final exam.
As an experienced tutor specializing in French for GCSE and A-level, and SQA National 5 and Higher qualifications, I employ a creative approach using a variety of resources to make learning engaging and effective. My sessions are designed to help students not only excel in their exams but also to develop a deep appreciation for the French language. I am passionate about creating a warm and comfortable environment where students feel confident to practice and improve their skills. I also have experience teaching French to adult beginners, as well as the International GCSE qualification. Let's work together to achieve your French language goals with confidence and enthusiasm!
SQA National 5 and Higher English are arguably the most important qualifications you undertake whilst in Secondary School in Scotland. In the lessons I run, I make powerpoints/pdfs each week that are tailored to the specific needs of students. We go through poems, short stories, or prose via interactive and engaging tasks to ensure a deep understanding of the text(s) is consolidated. I then always introduce past paper questions at the earliest point possible in order to ensure students are fully comfortable with the format of the exam, and to assess the extent to which they understand the text(s) they are studying. The same goes for the reading paper (RUAE) - I have pre-made answer structures for each type of question that can be asked for this paper, and I get students to apply these when answering past papers. I often ask students to write summaries, prepare essays, and/or answer past paper questions as homework.

Philosophical and/or Sociological Theory: Tailored Lessons and Guided StudyThis 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.
I am currently completing a Master of Arts in Philosophy. My areas of specialization include ancient philosophy, early modern philosophy, and phenomenology. I also hold a background in sociology, which allows me to offer interdisciplinary approaches to social theory and critical thought.
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.

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.
