Academic support for social science students
Social science degrees live or die on method. Whether you are running a survey, coding interviews or building a theoretical argument, the marker is asking whether your claims are warranted by your evidence. That is exactly what we coach.

English · Arabic · French
Sessions are available in English, Arabic and French, so you can think through difficult ideas in the language you reason fastest in and still submit in the language your university requires.
Academic integrity
We coach, tutor and give feedback. Students research, build and submit their own assessed work, which keeps them inside their institution's academic integrity rules.
