Political Science, Essays, Dissertations, Political Economy, Economics & European Studies - University Level & Adults

Hello,

I offer one-to-one private tuition to university students and adults in Political Science, Essay/Dissertation-writing, Political Economy, Economics, and European Studies.

I have 15 years of experience in high-quality private tuition, and I am also a Lecturer in EU Politics at one of the world’s leading universities (University College London).

My main areas of specialization are European Union politics and political economy, but I also regularly teach all other areas of Political Science, including Public Policy, Comparative Politics, Introduction to Politics, Populism, Democratisation, and many more. In addition, I teach Economics at a beginner/intermediate level.

I can also help with dissertations and essays, at the undergraduate, Master or Ph.D. level. As I supervise and mark UCL students ' dissertations throughout the year, I am able to give you the marker's perspective and help you ensure that you obtain a top mark. In addition, I am experienced in helping adult learners who want to improve their skills in Political Science or basic Economics, for professional or personal reasons.

Teaching is an activity that I deeply enjoy, and for which I have great enthusiasm. I was recently nominated for the Award for Outstanding Teaching by the UCL Students' Union. The feedback which I received from students taught in the past was very positive. In particular, I was told that my teaching had inspired students, and had made complex subjects appear simple and interesting.

My approach to teaching is results-focused. I first discuss with the student what are his/her objectives (this may be achieving top marks on a final exam, being able to undertake exercises given as homework, or increasing their understanding of certain aspects of a subject). We then devise together a work plan, to ensure that the student meets those goals.

This approach has been very successful in the past, as it is not only important to understand a certain subject, but also to be prepared for the particular type of examination or assessment that the student will need to face.

I have a Ph.D. in Political Economy from Utrecht University, a master's in European Studies from the College of Europe in Bruges, and a degree in Economics from the London School of Economics (LSE).

I teach either in person in London (ideally at UCL), or via email exchanges for written advice. Unfortunately I do not offer online classes.

I am available to meet students either in person in Brussels (ideally at ULB or VUB, other locations also possible) or online through Zoom. Alternatively, I can work via email exchange only (for example, to help with essays and dissertations). I normally teach in English, but as a fluent French speaker, I could also teach in French.

Professional accounting, finance and business tutoring in Switzerland – for sustainable learning success and deep understanding
► For many years, I have successfully taught Swiss students in the areas of accounting, bookkeeping, finance, and economics. I am intimately familiar with the requirements and structures of Swiss curricula and have access to all past exam papers. I have prepared many of my students specifically, sustainably, and with great success for cantonal and national examinations in accounting and business subjects. My focus is on making complex business concepts understandable, closing knowledge gaps, and building confidence in one's own abilities. My goal is not only to achieve better grades, but also to develop a long-term, in-depth understanding of business processes that will also be valuable in later professional life. ► ► How do I teach? ►I attach great importance to ensuring that my students truly understand economic relationships and accounting concepts and do not just apply methods mechanically – this is how we achieve sustainable success in finance and accounting. ►My success is based on my ability to flexibly adapt my teaching style to the individual needs of my students in the areas of accounting and business in order to convey the material to them in the most understandable way possible. ►I use practical, lively examples from accounting, finance and economics that make the theoretical material tangible and ensure it is anchored more deeply in the memory. ►With patience and clarity, I break down complex financial and accounting processes into their essential components so that no student is overwhelmed and a solid foundation in accounting is created. ►I firmly believe that trusting collaboration is crucial to reducing anxiety in accounting or business and creating a productive learning atmosphere. ►I offer intensive exam preparation in bookkeeping, accounting, finance and economics, develop strategies to combat exam anxiety with my students and practice the material under realistic conditions. ►As an experienced online tutor for accounting, finance, and economics, I use modern tools such as whiteboards and document sharing to make my lessons as efficient as possible. ►Locations: I teach accounting, finance, and economics at your home, online, or by appointment – flexible, professional, and tailored to your exact needs.

Political Communication, Public Speaking, and Presentation
The course module is adapted to the student. The summary will be communicated during the first lesson. I teach you to speak and/or write with an approach to the sciences of political communication, international relations, social and human sciences while convincing the person(s) in front of you with several negotiation techniques. ▪️ Political communication is about the creation and exchange of ideas and opinions between citizens, public officials, political institutions, and related entities, such as the media. It includes discourse throughout the political process in local, state, national, and international political systems, as well as how political information can be exploited for political ends or to achieve political goals. People with a background in political communication may work in policy advice, foreign service, market research, public relations, journalism, and digital media, community organizing, lobbying, political campaigning, or other related fields. ▪️ The techniques used will improve your level of confidence in your public presentations and storytelling. ▪️ BUT! in order to achieve your goal you must master public speaking which is the process or act of giving a speech in front of a live audience. Public speaking is generally understood to be formal, face to face, speaking from a single person to a group of listeners. ▪️ Based on the student’s request, this course may also include some skills in Marketing, Promotion, Digital Optimization, and SEO, where you will earn: • An integrated digital marketing strategy based on your own organizational context. • Skills to effectively analyze and leverage data to make breakthrough data-driven decisions. • A future perspective on marketing and an overview of how to use emerging digital channels and technologies, such as artificial intelligence (AI) and chatbots, within your organization. • Accept the challenges and opportunities of disruptive technology in your digital marketing strategy.

Preparing for, and Improving, College Composition and Reading
Despite advances in AI and other technologies, the core practice of excelling in college remains reading comprehension and essay writing. While these tools can act as a band-aid, they do not help students with foundational learning skills overall. With five years of experience in teaching college composition, I am aware of the gaps between high school and college literacy with which many students enter. My course will focus on filling such gaps to improve prospective and current students' overall reading and writing skills to aid in textbook comprehension and essay writing for any class they may attend. In attending my course, you will practice: - 1:1 help with essay edits and writing - Reading and critical engagement with excerpts from typical college material - Short writing drills to improve overall writing towards a college level - Line editing and peer review

I adapt to each student's level and offer a variety of materials to make the sessions interesting and interactive. Whether you need to brush up on the basics, improve your GPA, or aim for excellence, I'm here to help you gain confidence and succeed.
