Paths of the past: Exploring History and the Humanities.

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
With this course I want to make available to anyone the knowledge acquired over 20 years teaching history courses in colleges and universities. History and humanism are my passion and I take great pleasure in sharing this passion through enjoyable and entertaining lessons, always supported by appropriate audiovisual resources. This course aims to cover the topics that the student wants to know and/or delve into.
History is an educational experience that allows students to explore and understand humanity's past. By emphasizing significant events and analyzing how these factors have influenced the evolution of society and civilization we can understand how the decisions and actions of the past have shaped the world we live in today.

Geography and History support classes for Primary, Secondary and Baccalaureate, and Art History
I offer personalized classes for middle and high school students who want to delve deeper into these subjects in a dynamic and understandable way. I have a degree in Geography and History from Pablo de Olavide University, a Master's Degree in English from the same university, and a B2 level in English. I truly enjoy teaching and helping students reach their full potential. Classes are currently online, but I can offer in-person classes in Tomares, Castilleja de la Cuesta, Gines, Mairena del Aljarafe, and parts of Seville. I want to make the classes adapted to the needs of the student.

Art history lessons by an art teacher, at any level, online or in Velp.
Everyone learns differently. That's why I teach the way you want. You decide what you want to learn and how, including when your lesson takes place and how long it lasts. I teach art history to anyone who wants to, regardless of age or level, online or at my home in Velp. You can learn about, among other things, the visual arts, music and literature from prehistory to the present. You can work towards an exam/test/training or just learn out of interest. Whether it concerns Michelangelo's David or the graffiti on the walls of Dubai, I'll be happy to tell you about it. Anything is possible. I am trained as a musician/writer and am a second-degree teacher. I have over 10 years of experience in education and have been teaching art history, music history, creative writing and other subjects at the senior level of a small secondary school for a number of years, where I am also a team member. I write teaching materials that are used at various schools in secondary and higher education. I have a lot of experience with innovative education and one-on-one teaching. If you are interested or have any questions, please feel free to contact us. In addition to art history, you can also come to me for lessons in music theory, creative writing, mathematics and physics.

American History from an African American perspective.
Knowing American history is critically important—and an essential part of that history is the story of the diverse people who make up America. This course focuses on the Black American perspective of U.S. history—also known as African American, Black American, or simply Black history. In this class, we will explore five major eras of American history: 1. Slavery and Reconstruction 2. The Jim Crow Era 3. The Civil Rights Era and the Black Power Movement 4. The 1980s and 1990s 5. President Obama’s Presidency to the Present Throughout these eras, we will cover key topics such as the transatlantic slave trade, the Harlem Renaissance during the Roaring Twenties, the Red Summer and the many race riots and massacres during the Jim Crow era, segregation and the fight for civil rights, and more recent events like the Obama presidency and the 2020 pandemic. This course will help students not only understand American history, but specifically from a Black perspective, while also examining how that history shapes current events and the future.

Art history for beginners
The history of art is vast and wonderful. By studying it, we not only learn techniques, but we also discover the richness of the different cultures that exist in the world. Our differences are reflected in the beliefs that give rise to our works, and in the techniques developed thanks to the ingredients from each area. From cave paintings to contemporary art, we will see the history of humanity captured in pieces that defy the passage of time. This course is ideal for: - Students of artistic careers (I have a degree in visual arts). - Students who need school support. - Fans who love our history. The History of art is vast and wonderful.

Brynn
Art classes for aspiring artists beginner to advanced!
You will always need a blank piece of paper and a pencil for class. Some people say that you need fancy materials to make art but that is far from the truth. Using what you have at home is perfect! We will be taking notes each class on techniques and we will also be doing sketches every class. On the first day of class we will start by setting goals for something we want to learn more about in art. I will work with you to gradually get to that place you want. Art is something that you learn just like everything else, putting in the work is part of learning and is needed in the subject of art as well!

Learn and improve to speak Italian with a real Florentine
Do you love Italian people, history, and food and you would like to speak the language? I am a CEDILS-certified Italian teacher born and raised in Florence, and I've also been a language student myself for a long time! If you want to be able to interact with Italians quickly, I can give you some tips about correct pronunciation, fundamental grammar, and vocabulary, but also Italian art and popular culture, which I think is fundamental to understanding the mentality and the country that you are going to interact with. Lessons will be tailored according to the student's needs, level, and mother language and focused on the conversation. I am also available to proofread your writings.

Ping
Art classes (oil painting, drawing, comics, illustration, etc.)
Learning to draw or paint is not just about "reproducing well," but more importantly, about developing creativity. My classes emphasize developing the imagination while incorporating a rich and relevant knowledge of art history. Students thus improve both their technical drawing skills and their deeper understanding of art.

Dominique
history, geography, archaeology, art history.
History is the vector that allows us to better understand our society, the world in which we live. It is essential for general culture. The level of the course will adapt to the level of the student, from primary to university. It is also possible to adapt it in relation to an exam or competition to be taken, or to a person wishing to complete their general knowledge on a particular subject.

Mikel
Private lessons in history over several periods + Academic support
In my third year of the history faculty at the Jean Moulin Lyon III University, I plan to enroll in a master's degree in medieval history. I want to write a research paper on the French and the Mongols in the 13th century. I would like to go on to write a thesis on the theme of Mongol incursions into Japan (1274 and 1281). The sessions will aim to deepen or discover concepts about a period. I am comfortable with the era: medieval (especially from the 12th-13th century), modern (it all depends on the region and the century) as well as prehistory. I am able to establish a progression curve, as well as adapt the lessons according to the need or simply in relation to the expectations of the student. If necessary, repetitions and accentuations on knowledge can take place. Since I am not yet at the apotheosis of my studies, I will only offer these services to beginners or students (up to high school or first year of history school at the "maximum"). I can also offer help for tests related to the history dissertation or text commentaries, very famous and predominant exercises in studies in the history faculty.

US & European History for Middle & High School Students
History is one of the most important subjects for any student to understand. In addition to being part of a student's core curriculum, an understanding of history is essential for viewing the world in an informed manner. Through this course, we will learn about US & European History at the middle and high school levels. Rather than exploring history through dates and memorization, we will view history through the lenses of causation, continuity and change over time, and comparison.

Italian language course. Learning a new language is always a challenge, so we will get there in small steps.
Italian is the language of literature, of bel canto, and the language of one of the most beautiful countries in the world. In my course we will start with the linguistic and phonetic basics to then advance to more complex writings. You will practice speaking and correct pronunciation, to then arrive at written exercises, which you will also have to do at home to better assimilate the contents.
