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!

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!
