I offer A-level Sociology tutoring, drawing on over nine years’ experience teaching students in further and higher education.

My approach is results-driven and focused on helping students understand exactly what examiners are looking for. I work with students across the major exam boards, including AQA, Edexcel, OCR and Eduqas. I help students develop clear, well-structured answers, use sociological case studies and theoretical perspectives effectively, and build strong analytical and evaluative arguments that meet the relevant assessment objectives, including AO1, AO2 and AO3.

A key focus of my lessons is developing exam technique and strategy. Students learn how to approach different question types, structure their answers effectively, and apply their knowledge, analysis and evaluation under timed conditions. Lessons are structured and progressive, with each session building on previous learning.

I make Sociology relevant and engaging by connecting topics to current affairs and contemporary social issues. For example, we might explore sweatshops and fast-fashion brands such as Shein in relation to globalisation and exploitation, or examine the reasons behind the recent rise in the number of young people in the UK who are not in education, employment or training (NEETs).

I provide my own up-to-date teaching and revision materials, tailored to each student’s individual needs, level and exam board.

I work with students according to their individual goals, whether that means building confidence, securing a pass or working towards the highest grades. My aim is to help students become more confident, independent and effective sociological thinkers, while developing the knowledge and exam skills they need to perform at their best in those crucial 100% examinations.

For students under 18, I provide regular updates to parents on progress, strengths and areas for development.
