Passionate Politics tutor fostering critical thinking on interconnected global issues through interactive online lessons

Advert description
My lessons are designed for high school, university students, and adults eager to deepen their understanding of politics. Whether you're new to political theory, studying international relations, or preparing for exams, I’ll guide you through key concepts and real-world applications. Every lesson is personalized to your specific goals, fostering critical thinking, research skills, and a clear understanding of the interconnectedness of global issues. Let's work together to build a strong political foundation and empower you to think independently.

I bring to each lesson not only a passion for politics but also a robust academic foundation: I hold a BA in Sociology and Political Science from Ludwig-Maximilian-Universität Munich and I graduated with Distinction in Global Economic History from the London School of Economics, where I learned to connect past economic developments to contemporary challenges.
My deep engagement with critical theories—from the Frankfurt School’s analysis of ideology and emancipation to postcolonial and feminist critiques—equips me to guide you through complex frameworks that reveal how power, culture, and history shape our world. Over years of tutoring, I have honed my expertise in essay and research writing—teaching students to craft clear theses, structure compelling arguments, and apply rigorous sources—so whether you need feedback on structure or help articulating nuanced analysis, I’ve got you covered.

In my lessons, you will never encounter one-size-fits-all slides; instead, we’ll co-create a learning journey tailored to your ambitions—be it mastering the fundamentals of political theory, dissecting case studies in international relations, or preparing for examinations with targeted practice and feedback. Drawing on my grounding in economic history, we’ll explore how historical contexts inform policy decisions and social transformations, helping you appreciate the interconnectedness of global issues and local realities. By weaving in critical theory, I’ll encourage you to question prevailing assumptions and develop independent, analytical perspectives that transcend rote learning.

I’ve been working with Sophia once a week online, and her tutoring has genuinely changed how I write, think, and communicate. She has a rare ability to teach political theory and comparative politics in a way that is both intellectually demanding and completely accessible, and her framework for debating—the cognitive, relational, and energetic layers—has helped me stay clear and grounded even under pressure. I’ve noticed real results in my essays and in how I approach difficult conversations. Sophia is also remarkably flexible and easy to work with, and I recommend her without hesitation.

Sophia really tailors her lessons to my individual needs. She has a wonderful way of motivating me with her tasks and encouraging personality. Working with her is truly a joy, and I learn so much!

I started lessons with Sophia because I was honestly lost with essay writing at uni. I never really knew how to get my ideas on paper in a structured way, but she helped me a lot with that. What I liked is that she didn’t just tell me what to write but asked questions that made me think about my own arguments and how to make them clearer. She also explained theories in a way that actually made sense and linked them to real-life stuff, which made things way less boring than in lectures. I definitely feel more confident now when I have to write essays or prepare for exams. I’d recommend her if you want someone who’s patient, kind, and really supportive
