Online Sociology Tutor Ceren

I have extensive teaching and tutoring experience both in the UK and in Turkey, both online and offline. When I was a PhD student in Sociology at the University of Edinburgh, I tutored for three years for undergraduate students: I organised small-group discussion tutorials in sociology; I marked all the course assessments; I provided pastoral care and support for students. I tutored general sociology courses, research methods, and I also provided guidance for Honours undergraduate students in their sociology projects.

I also lectured at a private university in Istanbul for all levels of undergraduate students for one academic year. As my background also includes Psychology by training, I have also taught social psychology courses. During my lectureship, I organised the whole syllabi for my courses, marked all the course assessments, and provided mentorship and guidance to students for their postgraduate applications. As most of the students I lectured were lacking academic essay writing experience, I also devoted a significant amount of time to provide feedback on their essays. By their final assignments, there was significant progress in most students in terms of their academic writing. During this period, I also tutored Turkish as a foreign language via Skype.

In the summer of 2020, at the height of the Covid-19 pandemic, I tutored English online, and I prepared a guest lecture online by creating a narration voiceover to my Powerpoint slides, so I am familiar with online teaching methods, and I am willing to improve on it.
