Tutoring Experience

I have over ten years of experience teaching IB DP Global Politics, supported by my background in Political and Social Sciences and a Master’s in Education. As a former Head of Humanities, I’ve developed and delivered IB-aligned curricula across international schools, integrating my expertise in MYP Individuals and Societies to prepare students for success in Global Politics.

Tutoring Approach

My approach is centred on building students' confidence and mastery of IB DP Global Politics. I assess each student's current knowledge to tailor lessons effectively and focus on syllabus coverage, including targeted preparation for the Internal Assessment (IA) and Papers 1 and 2. Lessons incorporate engaging methods such as small presentations, podcast discussions, and real-world political scenarios to foster critical thinking. Formal assessments and mock exams are regularly used to measure progress, ensuring students are well-prepared for their exams.
