About Me

Hello,

My name is Luiza Sommer and I'm currently a student in Leiden University. I am Brazilian but have lived abroad for many years, hence have grown up in an international environment. I am both friendly and firm, so will push you to the best of your abilities.

I completed the IB with a total of 36 points, with my best performing classes being ESS SL, English Language, and Literature HL, and Portuguese HL. Therefore, I will be able to assist you in both knowledge questions and also essay questions. You will learn how to best structure your answers in order to achieve full marks!

In case you have any urgent inquiries please shoot me a message on Apprentus. I will gladly help!

Education

I graduated from Graded School - The American School of São Paulo with a total of 3 diplomas; IB, Brazilian and American. I achieved many awards during my academic life, including the ESS IB Excellence award for two consecutive years. Furthermore, I also wrote my EE on ESS and received a final grade of B.

Currently, I am pursuing a bachelor degree in International Relations and Organizations in the Netherlands in Leiden University. As well as this, I also minor in Business Administration.

Experience / Qualifications

I have leadership experience as I was the leader of many of my high school clubs. This has also given me planning and organizational skills.

Very informative
If you need extra help with ESS SL in the IB, this is your chance! Here you will get tips on how to do your IA and exams. Most specifically, how to answer the essay style questions in both Paper 1 and Paper 2! A little about myself: I was top of my class in ESS for the two consecutive IB years and also did my EE on ESS!
Bachelor theses are usually the last step needed for a student to graduate. Such task is challenging and requires dedication and focus. Therefore, I offer to give you some guidance and feedback on your thesis. It is important to have a second reader who has never read your thesis before and may not be as knowledgeable in your chosen topic as it provides new insight which you may have overlooked yourself. I have recently graduated myself, with a political science degree and international relations specialization, and have gone through this process. My thesis focused on exploring the relationship between democratic systems and voter turnout. Therefore, if you are writing your thesis on a similar research area, I can also recommend great academic literature and further feedback!

Portuguese with Katie - Learn Portuguese with an enthusiastic and qualified teacher who loves languages!
Are you in need of Portuguese language tuition in London or online? I'm a dedicated and enthusiastic Portuguese tutor with a background in languages and a passion for teaching. Coming from a trilingual family, I speak Spanish, Portuguese, and English fluently and hold a first-class BA in History with Spanish and Portuguese from the University of Leeds. After a decade-long career in law, I then changed profession to pursue my original love for languages. Having taught Spanish to secondary school students in London for three years and acted as a GCSE Portuguese speaking examiner within the school, I now focus on private tutoring full-time. Whether you're looking for formal public exam preparation or a tutor to practise everyday conversational skills with, I'm ready and willing to help. My hour-long lessons are designed to be an open and encouraging space in which students can practise and improve their language skills. I work to ensure that they are fun, interactive and as light-hearted as possible while always focused intently on my students' learning needs. My goal is not only to help you achieve your language goals but also to ignite a love for Portuguese and its culture. Let's embark on this language-learning journey together!

Portuguese is the 6th most spoken language in the world, and it is spoken in 4 continents (Europe, South America, Africa and Asia - Macau, China). In my class, you can learn anything about the language! We can talk about Funk, Football, Memes, Bossa Nova...

French, English & Portuguese language tutoring: Come learn from a native French and British citizen with Portuguese ancestry!
Passionate about language learning, I adapt my lessons to suit my pupils. I am currently studying a masters in sciences of learning at Munich so learning for all ages is my passion! Last year wihtin French primary schools, I brought an interest for the English language at the same time to pupils who remained mute and were known for being behind in class, to pupils who were constantly dissipated and highly performing native speakers. I use both fun and academic methods to enthuse my students while developing their linguistic foundations. Don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions!
