I offer Social Sciences and qualitative research classes for university students in all levels. I have experience teaching and mentoring students at different levels of their academic formation. From classic social studies, to the most recent theoretical developments in Anthropology, Sociology, Political Sciences or History, I can guide you through the intricacies of social thought and research in a clear, motivated and exciting way.

Who am I?
A committed social scientist, MA and Ph.D in Anthropology, completed 4yrs post-Ph.D in political anthropology. I have conducted four different research projects, all of them focusing in southern African communities and dealing with an array of distinct topics (religious syncretism; memory and identity; local and state politics; literary practices; history making; power and authority). During my studies I have built a very consistent and broad theoretical and ethnographic knowledge, particularly, but not only, when it comes to the interdisciplinary field of African studies (a complex literature in which I feel very comfortable and able to navigate with full proficiency). I am a very experienced researcher (with more than 3 years of fieldwork experience in southern Africa), acquainted with all kinds of qualitative methods, from interviews, ritual analysis, archival work and social media research. I have much experience writing, assessing and tutoring research projects; peer-reviewing academic papers (including American Anthropology, Caderno de Estudos Africanos, among others); participating in thesis commission board; and as a university professor. Mentoring and teaching is truly my passion, and with a very consistent and mature knowledge of the literature you can expect a most precise, competent assistance.

How do I work?
* You have a specific topic to unravel: we will go to the button of it through an interdisciplinary genealogy of concepts and an attentive look to their uses in concrete situations.

* You have an ongoing/finished paper: I will proofread your paper and offer you a logic schematics of your central argument. The idea is to first pull you out of the hurricane to identify its trajectory, and then push you back at its peaceful centre, were we can polish your ideas, cleaning unnecessary digressions and adding relevant data and literature.

* You have/need a research project: I will read and comment your project in case you already have one and offer you with a schematic of the literature related with your topic so that we can identify relevant gaps in the literature. After doing that, we will consider your objectives and consider through pertinent questions for your research.

* You are writing a thesis: I will first go through your research project and cross-check with you the actual results of your research. Once we have done that, we will analyse the nature and quality of your data, the span of the literature covered, chapters you might have already written, and, of course, the issues that excites you most. The idea is to identify where your strength is and what can be done do reinforce your arguments (more research, if possible; or literature review, if necessary). All this will be done with organizational support, helping you plan and schedule your writing with confidence, grace and, most importantly, no suffering!

This Sociology class focuses on the topic “The Family”, one of the core areas in Sociology that helps students understand how family structures, roles, and relationships shape society. Students will learn how families are defined, how they function, and how they have changed over time in modern societies.

The lesson covers key sociological perspectives including Functionalism, Marxism, Feminism, and Postmodernism, enabling students to critically evaluate the role of the family in both traditional and contemporary contexts. It also explores different family types such as nuclear, extended, single-parent, reconstituted, and same-sex families, with real-life examples to support understanding.

This class is designed for students preparing for major international Sociology examinations, including:

AQA GCSE Sociology (8192) – Paper 2: The Sociology of Families
AQA A-Level Sociology (7192) – Paper 2: Topics in Sociology (Families and Households)
OCR GCSE Sociology (J203) – Socialization, Culture and Identity (Family content included)
OCR A-Level Sociology (H580) – Paper 2: Sociological Themes (Families and Households section)
Cambridge IGCSE Sociology (0495) – Paper 1 (Theory & Methods) and Paper 2 (Social Structures, including Family)

Students will practice exam-style questions, learn how to structure high-scoring answers, and develop evaluation skills required for marks in short-answer and essay-based papers.

By the end of the class, students will be able to confidently explain, apply, and evaluate sociological theories of the family and perform effectively in exam questions across different exam boards.

What if human culture is not exclusively human?
Zooanthropology, or On Becoming Cultural with Non-human Animals is an introductory 10-lesson course exploring the relationship between humans and other animals and asking a fundamental question: how much of what we call “culture” has actually emerged through our relationships with other species?
The course offers a different perspective. Rather than considering culture an exclusively human achievement, zooanthropology understands it as something that has emerged through relationships, encounters and exchanges between species. Other animals are not simply objects of human knowledge or resources for human development: they are subjects who have influenced, shaped and transformed us.
This perspective invites us to reconsider our own position in the world and to question some deeply rooted assumptions about the supposed boundary between humans and other animals. It also encourages us to decentre our perspective and to become more attentive to forms of intelligence, communication, emotion, learning and relationship that do not seem to resemble our own.
The course is transdisciplinary, drawing on anthropology, philosophy, ethology and other fields. Along the way, you will encounter concepts such as intersubjectivity, epiphany, hybridisation and epimelesis, among many others. But don't be intimidated by the terminology! No previous knowledge of anthropology, philosophy, ethology or zooanthropology is required. What the course does require is curiosity, an interest in human–nonhuman animal relations, and a willingness to question some familiar ideas and look at the world from a less anthropocentric perspective.
Slides and a bibliography will be provided.

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.
