Foundations of Sociology
Dive into the essentials of sociology and explore how society shapes our lives. In this course, we’ll uncover key sociological concepts like culture, socialization, social structures, and group dynamics. Through case studies, real-world examples, and interactive discussions, students will learn to critically examine social issues, understand patterns of inequality, and develop insights into human behavior within different social contexts. Ideal for beginners or those looking to strengthen their understanding of the social world, this class sets a solid foundation for further study in the social sciences.
Foundations of Criminology
This course introduces the fundamental concepts of criminology, focusing on the study of crime, criminal behavior, and the criminal justice system. Students will explore various types of crime, factors influencing criminal behavior, and how society responds to crime. Topics include crime statistics, victimology, criminal law, and policy implications. Using real-life case studies and analytical tools, students will gain an understanding of criminological perspectives and their application in addressing current criminal justice issues.
Theories and Thinkers of Sociology and Criminology
Explore the ideas that have shaped sociology and criminology with a focus on influential thinkers and groundbreaking theories. This class covers major sociological and criminological theories, from classical frameworks to contemporary perspectives. Students will examine the works of key thinkers like Durkheim, Weber, Marx, Foucault, and others, understanding how their ideas contribute to our knowledge of society and criminal behavior. By analyzing these foundational theories, students will develop critical thinking skills and a deep understanding of how social forces and structures impact individual and group actions in society.

A-Level Sociology (OCR predominantly, but can teach other exam boards)A-Level Sociology is one of the hardest subjects to tackle at A-Level if you are not familiar with memorising an entire compilation of names and theories. I specialise in teaching Sociology and achieved an A* at A-Level with OCR Sociology. In spite of this, I can teach and adapt to other exam boards like AQA, and there is a demand for Sociology tutoring. I currently study at King's College London University, but am free during weekends to tutor.
Thank you for reading.

Law Classes - Exams, Test, LNAT Tutoring by LSE Law Graduate and Future Trainee SolicitorHi! I am a recent LLB in Laws graduate from LSE. I have taught law tuition to degree level students who have secured high 2.1 and first grades in their examinations. My method of teaching is not to make you memorise the law but to understand the law in a simplistic manner, using laymen terms to explain the law which can be often complex or daunting to comprehend. During our sessions, I aim to finish a topic within a class or two before we tackle past year questions together.
After our sessions, I will also encourage the student to use mindmaps/diagrams to consolidate his/her understanding. The student is free to attempt past year questions and we can go through it together during our next session as well. My method of teaching law has resulted in a former student of mine to score a first class honours grade in her EU Law examination earlier this year.
Subjects which I can teach, having taken them at LSE include public law, property and trust law, company law, competition law, jurisprudence, tort law, IT law, EU Law and criminal law.
Beyond teaching law, I can also help students with their applications to law firms, having secured a Vacation Scheme and a Training Contract.
Looking forward to our classes and helping you realise your potential!

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.

Native English Conversation for all. Are you interested in English for travel, Business, or just as a hobby? No stress, fun classes for all"My teaching style is centered around creating an engaging and supportive environment that encourages active participation and critical thinking. I believe that language acquisition is most effective when students are immersed in authentic, real-world contexts, so I often incorporate multimedia, literature, and current events to make lessons both relevant and dynamic. I strive to foster a classroom atmosphere where students feel comfortable taking risks, making mistakes, and learning from them.
I focus on building strong communication skills, including reading, writing, listening, and speaking, by using interactive activities, group discussions, and project-based learning. I also believe in tailoring lessons to meet the needs of individual learners, offering personalized feedback and adjusting my teaching methods to suit different learning styles. Whether through creative writing exercises, debate, or grammar drills, my goal is to inspire confidence in students' ability to use English effectively in both academic and everyday settings."
