Sean - IslingtonC$97
C$97Piano for Beginners, Intermediate and Advanced. Striking a Balance between Technical and Fun.
Hey! My name is Seán, and I am an Irish singer-songwriter based in London with 2 years of teaching experience. I teach a range of disciplines, including piano, guitar, vocals, songwriting, and music theory. Having taught students of all ages and different levels of musicianship, I am pleased to say that I have built long-lasting relationships with many of my students. With an emphasis on creativity and student input; my lessons allow students to discover their own playing style and musical direction. I strongly believe that people learn best when they enjoy what they’re doing, and I incorporate this into my teaching style. I strongly encourage my students to bring their own ideas and suggestions to the lessons; that way they can learn a piece of music that they really like. With a background in classical music, I underpin my lessons with useful technical exercises that encourage dexterity, time-keeping and fluency. Finally, I encourage all my students to learn at least the fundamentals of music theory and sight reading. Striking a healthy balance between diligent exercises, music theory and fun musical expression, my lessons allow students to explore their musicality on all fronts. Whether you’re a complete beginner, or you’re building upon your existing skills, I am here to help you reach your musical goals. Lessons are available immediately, looking forward to hearing from you! Qualifications: - Grade 8 Classical Piano - Royal Irish Academy of Music - Piano, Vocal, and Guitar Training - MA in Music Production, LCCM - Decade of Songwriting Experience - Frontman for Seán and the Late Bloomers

Laiba - LondonC$43
C$43Foundations of Sociology, Foundations of Criminology, Theories and Thinkers of Sociology and Criminology
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.

Imogen - IslingtonC$48
C$48Maths and English tutoring for school children up to GCSE level, offered by an LSE Masters Student
I achieved 9s at GCSE in Maths, English Language, and English Literature. I also took Maths and English at A-level, and achieved A*s. I have tutored GCSE students in these subjects in the past, and I taught English to students in Burkina Faso. I also currently volunteer with children aged 11-15 at a charity called the 'Ministry of Stories' to develop children's writing abilities. On a personal level, as someone who was relatively recently in senior school (I am in my early 20s), and with two younger brothers who are at GCSE and A-level respectively, I want to use my up-to-date knowledge of the education system to help young people do well! I adapt all lessons plans to the student’s individual needs. Upon first meeting a student/their parent, we discuss the aims they want to achieve within the number of agreed lessons; e.g. whether there is a particular topic they wish to focus on, or if they would like to practise the subject more broadly. I formulate a potential lesson plan which I email to the student/their parent. After receiving feedback and comments, we agree on a final plan together. This is the approach I used in past tutoring jobs, and I have found it to be very successful. Due to my past tutoring experience with GCSE students, I am familiar with the current GCSE curriculum for Maths and English, for the AQA, Edexcel, and OCR exam boards. I use a combination of textbooks, extra material issued by the exam board, and past papers to teach students. I mark all their work according to the marking criteria issued by the exam board. I am also happy to go over a student’s class notes with them, if they are struggling to understand what the teacher has said. According to the student/parent preferences, I can set homework, which I mark before lessons and explain to the student during the lesson. In my approach to Maths, I aim to ensure the student fully understands the rationale of each mathematical step, rather than merely memorising the solutions to answers without understanding the logic behind them. During English classes, I will discuss texts and practise exercises with students orally and mark their written work, Also, I use my own tasks to improve students’ writing and analysis. For example, if students are often getting ‘stuck’ when faced with a text for the first time, I practise a list of key ‘trigger questions’ with them. (For instance: what is your instinctive emotional response to this text? Are there any specific sentences you think trigger this reaction in you? From the list of classic techniques authors use, like similes, extended metaphors, hyperbole, and oxymorons, are any used here? What is their effect? Are any of the themes we have identified in the rest of the book here?) To improve the students' writing abilities, I use techniques like encouraging students to produce ‘essay plans’ for me during lessons. They bullet point their ideas within ten minutes, and then we mark them together. This improves students’ structure, as they can more easily see the overall cohesion of their argument than if they were to write it out in full. It also helps students practise thinking on their feet. These are just two examples of techniques I use. Like lesson plans, I adapt the technique to the student, depending on what works best for them.
