Master of History

Experience

I have been teaching history and sociology for 8 years in International schools worldwide. I successfully prepared students for IB Diploma History and AP History and Sociology exams. My strength is understanding of exam criteria and persistent work towards the goal. My approach evokes motivation and enables students to discover things that make history entertaining.

Tutoring Approach

The lesson planning is based on the student's needs. I often use flipped classroom in order to let students actively participate in lesson alongside discussions and working out examples from past papers. I conduct assessments with questions taken from real exams and give constructive feedback on students' work to make sure we are moving towards our goals. The first session will be introductory: - we will assess your knowledge - set goals - find the right approach to crack the curriculum - set a routine that will consist of homework, online sessions, self-check assessments, benchmark assessments.

Masters in International Relations

Experience

I had the privilege to live abroad and to graduate from top institutions : private primary school in Paris with mentors who emphasized the importance of humanities.

I also studied for a year at the University of Tokyo and got a summer course rom Harvard. I now focus on an MBA but have time to share my experience with youngsters.

Tutoring Approach

Mine is an original approach that focuses on a pedagogic learning with tangent media : I firmly believe you can learn from different sources of information ie news, TV and socializing. However I grant paramount importance to classics and to me it is necessary to review specifics in literature, History and language in order to grasp international relations and culture, to address modern subjects such as business and marketing.
