Political Theories mainly explore the theories around political structures that make up different societies. Introduction to Political Theories, as the name suggests provides students with explanations and insights into these seemingly overwhelming political theories, enabling one to understand their intricacies and evolution. These classes will prove to be of much use for someone who is just starting a bachelor's degree in political science. Also, students who are interested in International Relations might find these classes useful due to the context of the course being wholly international. The theories can get complicated quickly real soon and these classes will serve the purpose of getting the concepts cleared thoroughly. The classes will cover the following topics: Liberalism and its various forms Socialism and its variants Communism and its developments Feminism and its evolution Understanding the role of theories in historical and contemporary geopolitical conflicts The Liberalism and Communism debates Addressing the Glass Ceiling in Feminism The resources will be provided by me and shall be plenty. Being a scholar myself, there won't be any shortage of subject material to study and understand. Moreover, the classes can be modified to a reasonable extent in accordance with the student's syllabus or requirements. In a world where everyone's political opinions are getting quickly inflated and highlighted through social media, they can also affect mental health to some extent. Then, the only solution that remains is to understand the theories better. All of these billions of opinions are merely versions of the developments of a handful of these political theories. Owing to the nature of the classes they may also be useful for people who are curious about topics such as economics, political science, and history.

I am a passionate History, Sociology and Philosophy teacher (both ancient and modern). Fluent in Italian, Spanish and English I have taught History and Sociology in Madrid, Barcelona, North Italy and London. I can also teach Politics. Outside of the classroom, I have written and directed school plays, organized the school journals and the olympic games of philosophy. My students are of differing ages and stages of proficiency, so I have plenty of experience teaching at all levels. I consider myself a friendly and patient teacher, concerned above all else with the all round development of my students' capacity for comprehensive thought. I have a strong belief in the unification of knowledge and am always striving to incorporate seemingly disparate branches of learning into a broader horizon in order to provide my students with a sufficiently complete picture. Availability The length and frequency of sessions can be determined by the student's requirements and availability. The first lesson For any given first session I like to get to know the student, find out where they're at in their course of study, and see what their current working methods are like. Usually, talking about the current piece of homework, the next upcoming exam, or due assignment is a great way to gauge their requirements, assess where my help is most needed, and thus collaboratively devise a joint programme of work. My teaching method 
I bring a broad-based interdisciplinary knowledge to a range of subjects. This allows the opportunity to consider new ideas and to place different perspectives in conversation with each other, which is an instrumental skill for improving academic writing. A lesson with me will be interactive and lucid. I am adaptable as all students are different, so I will constantly monitor and remain attentive to our learning objectives.
 
My teaching methods vary, but as a rule I start with an in depth account of the subject, taking care to ground it contextually, and then proceed to a discussion of the main points. Whether the lessons take more of a dialogical form or the more typical lecture type format depends on the needs and preferences of the student. The lessons will be focused on studying techniques, written exercises with supervision and recalling techniques. We will work not just to close any gaps but also help the student in learning how to optimize private study. For students who need to get up to speed with content, I can offer sessions where I present you with ideas and new ways of understanding the topic. I approach each topic according to the immediate and long-range needs of the student, whether they require help in comprehending their topic, in preparing for exams, or in planning, executing, and proofing written work. Depending on the desire and temperament of the student, I can gear my lessons either towards cramming and exam survival or towards the nurturing of lifelong learning. My general policy is also to be flexible with what the student needs of me. For example, my payment is for the hour, however I am happy to look over work and send comments. My fee is not just one hour as I work with the student in all aspects of their learning via e-mails outside the lessons. Pushing forward If you're enthralled by your subject and wish to pursue it further, beyond the bounds of learning outcomes and assessment, then I can cultivate that passion in you. If you want to improve your critical or creative writing, I can help you articulate your vision and present it according to high standards; along the way I will instill good practices that will help you in any such task.

Trusted teacher: All classes are given online. You will be provided with full methodology and an individual program will be generated for you to make sure you reach your goals. Philosophy is the foundation of all knowledge, the pursuit of truth through reason, and the key to understanding the world, human nature, and society. To study philosophy is to develop the ability to think critically, argue rigorously, and grasp the underlying principles that shape reality. Raised in a family devoted to intellectual discipline and excellence, I was immersed from an early age in classical philosophy, logic, ethics, metaphysics, and political thought. My approach is both historical and analytical, ensuring that students not only learn philosophical concepts but also develop the ability to question, debate, and apply philosophical reasoning to modern issues. A Rigorous Methodology for Mastering Philosophy: Understanding philosophy requires more than reading — it demands a structured approach to reasoning and analysis. I provide my students with a rigorous methodology that enables them to: -Analyze texts with precision, identifying key arguments and logical structures. -Construct well-formed philosophical arguments, mastering the art of reasoning and rhetoric. -Engage in dialectical thinking, refining their thoughts through structured discussion. -Write and express ideas with clarity and coherence, essential for academic and intellectual pursuits. A Dual Approach: The Great Thinkers & The Great Questions: History of Philosophy – The Evolution of Thought -Ancient Philosophy – Socrates, Plato, Aristotle, Stoicism, Epicureanism. -Medieval & Scholastic Philosophy – St. Augustine, St. Thomas Aquinas, Duns Scotus, Suarez. -Modern Philosophy – Descartes, Kant, Rousseau, Hegel, Nietzsche. -Contemporary Philosophy – Existentialism, phenomenology, political philosophy, ethics, metaphysics. Philosophical Themes – Mastering the Core Questions: -Metaphysics & Ontology – What is reality? What is existence? -Epistemology – How do we know what we know? What is truth? -Ethics & Moral Philosophy – What is good? What is justice? How should we live? -Political Philosophy – What is the best form of government? What is freedom? -Logic & Argumentation – Learning how to construct, deconstruct, and refine arguments. -Scholasticism – Mastering the structured reasoning of medieval philosophy, essential for theology and metaphysics. - Languages and societal questions. A Course Designed for Your Needs Whether you seek to explore philosophy for personal enrichment or academic excellence, this program is tailored to your level and goals: -Academic support (school, high school, university) Essay & debate preparation -Personal enrichment (deepening your understanding of the great ideas) -Diplomatic, political, or legal insight (for those in governance, law, or international relations) Philosophy is not just an intellectual exercise—it is a way of seeing the world, questioning assumptions, and refining thought. With my structured methodology, you will gain the ability to navigate complex ideas with precision and confidence. Join me, and develop a mind that is sharp, informed, and ready to engage with the deepest questions of life, to find the truth and, most important, to understand why it is true and how to act upon it.
