Detalles de la lección

This immersive bootcamp helps you transition smoothly into life and learning in the U.S. through practical, conversation-led guidance. Here’s what’s included:

  • Understanding U.S. classroom norms (e.g., participation, office hours, professor interaction)

  • Navigating social contexts — small talk, group work, peer networking

  • Recognizing and decoding indirect communication and cultural cues

  • Real-life social strategies for study groups, campus life, and research collaborations

  • Optional: personalize your strategies based on your field or research context

Perfect for students just settling in, and for those preparing to study abroad—this course offers clarity, empathy, and actionable insight for smoother adaptation.

 


My approach is practical, adaptable, and student-focused, tailored to your subject area—whether you’re in social sciences, humanities, cultural studies, or interdisciplinary research. I specialize in qualitative researchethnographic methods, and academic mentoring for projects ranging from high school assignments to university theses. Over multiple sessions, I can help you design, execute, and refine your research, providing continuous feedback so you gain both academic skills and confidence.

 

I hold a Ph.D. in Cultural Anthropology, an M.A. from Yale University, and have trained nearly 100 researchers in the field. I’ve advised IB Extended Essay students, university undergraduates, graduate students, and professionals in understanding human behavior, culture, and cross-cultural communication.

 

Bring your questions. Bring your ideas. Let’s work through them together—step-by-step—so your work is clear, credible, and ready for academic success.
