As a politics student I am interested in how society works whether its domestic politics or international. My current dissertation research project is on rituals and ceremonies in the UK's Parliament which is particularly relevant for those studying A-level politics as the specification covers British politics quite closely. I also studied abroad for a year to learn about French politics in Paris and I am very interested in the current politics surrounding Brexit and the EU. I achieved 97% in my Politics A Level and have continued to achieve high 2:1s and firsts in my undergraduate degree. My friends would call me a politics nerd as I like spending time watching BBC Parliament and find any excuse to be in Parliament myself, whether undertaking internships in Portcullis House or attending debates in the chambers.

Beyond politics I am also tutoring in English Literature and the Extended Project Qualification. As an essay based subject I have continued to hone my English skills throughout my politics degree and also took a course on controversial literature at Sciences Po Paris in my third year of university. I am currently researching my dissertation and am confident I can assist with research for the EPQ.

I like to tailor lessons to individual student needs and match that to specifications rather than the other way round. If your goal is to pass an English Literature GCSE but you don't enjoy the poems your school has chosen, I will teach you how to analyse poems and extract information from poems you do enjoy and we can then work on applying that to the texts necessary for the course. If this isn't your style I am happy to work as close to the specification as you wish, that is just one example of how I work.

In a free video meeting I like to ascertain what the goals of the student are, how often they would like tutoring as well as any written work reviews they would like. We can then set some goals for the next lesson together and work on exactly the right content.
