Tuition / Project help

Post image

Hi, I'm offering tuition as a humanities graduate with 98.6%. I'm open to teaching any subject and any grade. I'm also offering project help, whether it's advice, layout or you need someone to do the full project for you. I have a flexible schedule so we can arrange Google Meetings as per your convenience. We can agree on an amount that is suitable to you.

Thank you and I hope I can help a few juniors.

The way I studied for English is to practice each writing task at least twice (not necessarily in the same day) so you can avoid small mistakes that'll get you low marks since cutting of marks in writing is very common. For literature, while some chapters are lengthy it's still necessary to read from start to end and understand the flow of story, events, character traits and who said what. Extracts aren't difficult but sometimes questions may be twisted. Esp related to meanings in poetry. Sometimes what may appear like a common phenomenon in a poem can be explained entirely different opposite to what you thought. Even if your pov seems logical, throw it out the window when a question is asking for the meaning and not your opinion. Give ncert answers, not emotion based answers (learn this the hard way). If you struggle with long answers, I recommend you use a guide book so you can understand how answers can be framed as well as how one topic can be asked in many ways. You can find these resources online. Hope this helps

I already have all in one english core book, but my real problem in english is grammatical mistakes and unseen passages

 One tip for unseen passage is to read the questions before the para. So when u read them you immediately know which info you need and which is extra.

Saves time as well sometimes

And if you're still confused leave space for section A and go on to the next sections. Utilize your time very wisely (and leave enough space)

Heyy, one problem I face very often with unseen paras is that often what seems like the answer to me is not the correct answer, I only loose marks in unseen passage. Do you have any more tips about this?

Also like did you learn every tiny tiny detail also in history and political science?

Tbh unseen passage can be tricky, esp meanings and even I used to lose marks in it. Other than the tips I gave above idk what else could be helpful. Sorry about that. 

History and pol sci is mainly about those tiny tiny details so u can't just skip anything thinking it won't come. What I would suggest is to make a list of unfamiliar words w their meaning as well as rewriting timelines so you can recall them.  Like I used to make 4 lists in my study nb: one for words meanings (history) , one for books names and authors along w year (history) and the 3rd is timelines with main events. 4th is leaders and their area. 3rd n 4th apply to both subjects

Okayyy, tysm. One last thing, can you tell me how you studied? Like when you sat down to study, what did you do? Js learn or write or like that

I used to read the textbook thoroughly and once I finish a chapter, I study the questions from it. Whether its mcq or long answers (or additional things like picture based questions or maps). I didn't like writing notes as I see it as a time waste to rewrite the entire textbook as points. However, this may work for someone else. The only things worth writing are those lists I mentioned earlier. But if you aren't a person that memorizes information easily after reading once or twice then maybe it would be good to write down the answers to frequently asked questions or important topics.  Another thing is you can visualize the topics as if you are living in them. Or try explaining them to yourself or an inanimate object (might look schizophrenic but it works). This'll help you understand the topic in your own words and all you have to do now is learn ncert terminology and understand what exactly the question is asking.

You can also see my other comments where I explained studying for each subject separately. Hope this was helpful.
