Situational Systemic Action Theory (SSAT) for Basics on Probability

From 94 C$ /h

The course is centered on Systems Theory and Elinor Ostrom's Situational Action Theory. The purpose is to inform pupils of the work of Niklas Luhmann, the XX-century German sociologist of law, who has written a new perspective on relationships among social actors and the surrounding environment. The course is furthered through the brilliant asset constituted by Ostrom's theory, demonstrating that everyday life and RWG (real-world games) have the chance to show reality as they are interwoven with cognition and behavioral decision-making. We will explore the fundamentals of probability laws together, with a cut on unprepared responses to unexpected events.

Learn Arduino, robotics and electronics one to one with a qualified electronics engineer who teaches this at university level. Complete beginners through to degree students, online worldwide or in person in Birmingham, with a free 30 minute introduction before you book anything.

I'm Ghous. I hold an MSc in Electronics and Electrical Engineering with Distinction from the University of Chester, where I teach as a Visiting Lecturer on a Master's module, and I work as a freelance engineer designing circuit boards and writing embedded firmware for clients. I have taken a four layer ESP32 board from schematic to manufactured hardware, built the electrical power system for a CubeSat, and published two international conference papers on running neural networks on microcontrollers. When you ask why your sensor reads nothing or how to justify a design choice in a report, the answer comes from doing this work rather than from a tutorial.

Adults and hobbyists

If you own an Arduino kit and have stalled, or you can copy a project but cannot change it, this is the gap I close. We build what you actually want, home automation, data logging sensors, motorised builds, a device that talks to your phone, and underneath it you pick up the real skills: reading a datasheet, using a multimeter, wiring safely and debugging when nothing happens. No technical background required.

University and college students

Embedded systems, microcontrollers, robotics, control systems, circuit analysis and digital electronics. Arduino, ESP32, nRF52, PIC with MPLAB and STM32, plus Proteus, Multisim, Webots and PCB design in KiCAD. I also supervise final year and Master's projects from scoping through to the write up. I mark Level 7 work myself, so I know where reports lose marks. I teach students on UK, IB and continental European programmes and have worked with engineering students in Germany, so an unfamiliar syllabus is not a problem. Send me your course material and I will work from it.

School students, ages 9 to 18

Beginners who want to build something real, and students with coursework in Design and Technology, Computer Science or Engineering, whether on GCSE, A Level, IB or a national curriculum. Typical builds are a line following robot, an obstacle avoiding car, a live weather station or a motion triggered alarm. For lessons in Birmingham I bring all the equipment. Parents are welcome to sit in on the first session (UK DBS checked).

How lessons run

Tell me your level and what you want to build, or send your assignment brief, and I plan the session around it before we meet. I demonstrate first, then you take over while I guide, because nobody learns electronics by watching. Online students share a screen and I debug code and wiring photos live. Every session ends with something working and a clear next step, and you can message me between lessons.

Lessons run over Google Meet or Zoom, 60 or 90 minutes. I teach across GMT and Central European time with evening and weekend slots. Online students can start with any board they already own, or I will point you at one starter kit under 30 euros that covers the first several months.

Message me with your level and what you are trying to build and we will arrange the free 30 minutes.

Creative writing can sound daunting, but we all have stories within us - whether novels, short fiction or simply pieces we write for ourselves. Whether you're an experienced writer or just beginning, we can work together to develop and improve your writing skills, covering everything from character and plot to dialogue, pace and structure. As an author of four novels (two published by Head of Zeus and two by Quercus) I have extensive experience of working with an agent, and editorial publishers, can offer valuable insights into the world of publishing. Writing is like a muscle; the more you use it, the better you become, and through a variety of writing exercises and different techniques, we can focus on helping you produce your best writing.

I am also an experienced proofreader and editor and can help you improve existing works and ready them for submission.

Develop your creative writing through worldbuilding, myth, lore, symbolism, poetry, and character-driven storytelling.
My own work focuses on dark fantasy and mythic worlds shaped through characters, symbolic systems, atmosphere, and poetic language. I am especially interested in worldbuilding that grows organically from relationships, perception, identity, conflict, transformation, and the internal logic of a fictional universe.

In our sessions, we can work on worldbuilding, lore, character development, mythology, symbolic systems, atmosphere, narrative structure, poetry, or the connections between these elements. Rather than simply adding more information to a fictional world, we can explore how its cultures, beliefs, histories, languages, spaces, and characters influence one another and create a coherent whole.

My academic background in Comparative Literature, Philosophy, and Archaeology also allows us to approach creative work from different perspectives, especially when exploring myth, symbolism, culture, meaning, and narrative structure.

You can bring an existing manuscript, poem, character, setting, lore document, or worldbuilding project. You can also come with only an initial idea. Sessions can be shaped around brainstorming, creative development, feedback, close discussion of your text, or building the conceptual foundations of your fictional world.

You do not need to be an experienced writer. The aim is to help you develop a creative language and fictional universe that feel distinctive, internally coherent, and meaningful to you.

Having recently completed my A-Levels, achieving an A* in Politics and an A in Sociology, I understand first-hand what it takes to succeed in these subjects. Now undertaking a competitive law degree apprenticeship, I aim to help students develop the knowledge, confidence and exam technique needed to achieve their academic goals.

My Teaching Approach

I believe that achieving top grades requires more than simply memorising content. It's about understanding how to apply knowledge effectively, construct convincing arguments and demonstrate the analytical and evaluative skills that examiners reward.

My lessons are personalised to each student's individual needs, whether that's strengthening subject knowledge, improving essay structure or developing exam technique.

I follow a structured approach:

Identify areas for improvement: We begin by reviewing current performance, past essays and teacher feedback to understand where marks are being lost.

Build subject knowledge: I break down challenging topics into clear, manageable explanations, using examples and revision resources.

Develop exam technique: We work through past-paper questions, essay plans and model answers, focusing on argument development, evaluation and structure.

Provide constructive feedback: I offer detailed feedback on written work, highlighting strengths and specific areas for improvement.

Track progress: Lessons are adapted as students develop, ensuring we continue working towards their target grades.

Lesson Structure

My lessons typically last 60 minutes and are delivered online. Sessions combine subject teaching, active discussion, exam-question practice and personalised feedback.

I can also provide revision materials, essay plans and written feedback between lessons to support independent learning.

Who My Lessons Are For

I specialise in:

Edexcel A-Level Politics, including UK and US Politics.

AQA A-Level Sociology.

My lessons are designed for Year 12 and Year 13 students, whether they're aiming to strengthen their foundations, improve their predicted grades or push towards A and A* results.

As someone who has only recently completed these qualifications, I can offer a relatable perspective alongside a structured, academically focused approach. My aim is to make lessons engaging, supportive and challenging, helping students become more confident and independent learners.
