Private tutoring in economic and social sciences (SES) for Première (second year of lycée)

In Première (the second year of lycée), the SES speciality goes deeper into all three disciplines: in economics, markets, their failures and money; in sociology, socialisation, social groups and deviance; in political science, public opinion and voting. Assessments follow bac formats, in particular the three-part paper. It is also the year when you must decide whether to keep the speciality.

School success and study choices

Private SES tutoring at lycée: a method for succeeding in analyses and exams

Private tutoring in SES (Economic and Social Sciences) at lycée (upper secondary school) is above all useful when it teaches the student to connect three skills: mastering the curriculum’s concepts, using documents precisely and building a reasoned argument. In Première as in Terminale (the second and final years of lycée), knowing your lessons is therefore not enough. You need to be able to explain an economic or social mechanism, interpret a figure, select a relevant example and organise an answer suited to the instruction. Good SES support should identify the link in the chain that is really blocking the student, then train them on specific tasks rather than simply going over the lesson again.

Methods and revision

Active recall: the revision method that makes the brain retrieve information

Active recall means retrieving information from memory, without looking at your notes, and then checking your answers. It is a more effective method than simple rereading for long-term memorisation. To use it well, you need to space out recall sessions and use your mistakes to target the gaps.

Private tutoring

How many hours of private tutoring a week does a student need?

How often to have private tutoring depends on the goals: 1 weekly session is enough for regular follow-up or a targeted difficulty, while 2 or more sessions may be needed to catch up on a significant gap or prepare for an approaching deadline. Effectiveness rests on regularity, targeting and the student’s own work between sessions.

Frequently asked questions

Your questions about tutoring in economic and social sciences (SES) for Première (second year of lycée)

Which SES chapters cause trouble in Première?

Money and the financing of the economy, then market failures. The tutor revisits them with diagrams and examples.

How do you work on the three-part paper from Première?

By practising each of its parts separately, then complete papers. The tutor corrects the method as much as the content.

Should you keep SES in Terminale?

It depends on your plans: economics, business, political science and law value it. The tutor can help weigh the choice against the year's results.

How do you draw a market equilibrium correctly?

With labelled axes, labelled curves and a clear equilibrium point, then by explaining each shift in a sentence. The tutor has you redo it until it becomes automatic.
