About Me

Hello! My name is Angelos Sofocleous and I have a PhD in Philosophy from the University of York. I also have an MA in Philosophy and a BA in Philosophy and Psychology from the University of Durham. My PhD research was focused on the phenomenology of depression experiences. In particular, I researched how interpersonal relationships are disrupted in experiences of depression by analysing first-person accounts of depression. I specialise in the fields of phenomenology, existentialism, and philosophy of mind. Further, my areas of interest include ancient Greek philosophy, ethics, and epistemology.

I have worked as a Graduate Teaching Assistant at the University of York and at the University of Leeds, teaching the following courses: Reason & Argument, Ethics, Ancient Philosophy, Early Modern Philosophy, Knowledge & Perception, and The Mind. I am currently a Tutor in Philosophy for the Centre for Lifelong Learning at the University of York for which I have developed and taught the following courses: Introduction to Philosophy, Existentialism and the Philosophy of Jean-Paul Sartre, Stoicism, Ancient Greek Philosophy, and Current Issues in Philosophy.

For my contributions to teaching, I have received the University of York Vice-Chancellor’s Teaching Award.

I am also an Associate Fellow of the Higher Education Academy (AFHEA).

I commit myself to correct you and to send the tests regularly after having fixed a schedule of work. But you remain responsible and master of your TFE / memory. In my opinion, teamwork remains the key to success. If you have any questions, do not hesitate to contact me, I will answer in all circumstances!

Homework help & MATH lessons on COLLE / St PAUL & Surroundings - By PROFESSOR OF TRADE & PROFESSIONAL COACH
By PROFESSOR & PROFESSIONAL COACH Hello, First and foremost, I would like to wish you a warm welcome back to school and a peaceful year ahead as you work towards your goals. I am aware that the economic situation can sometimes be challenging, which is why I offer my services to accompany your child throughout their academic journey with ease and serenity. Throughout my career as a Graduate Teacher and Graduate Professional Coach, I have worked in various contexts. Until last year, I taught in front of whole classes as well as in private lessons. Since this year, I have been providing face-to-face private lessons at home and also via video conferencing, a mode of teaching that I have practiced with university students for the past ten years. My teaching environment has undergone significant changes, especially with the emergence of the Covid pandemic. This shift has led our secondary school students to adapt to the new mode of learning and communication, namely video conferencing. Despite the success of this transition, it is important to acknowledge that our younger students still require attention and a psycho-emotional connection in order to develop their autonomy peacefully. Over the past two decades, I have implemented proven methodological approaches, some of which are borrowed from theater techniques, such as the Davis method (mind mappings/colors), and my specialty, professional coaching, which aims to enhance your child's motivation. My main goal is to foster agility in your child across all subjects, not only for the present but also for their future when I will no longer be by their side. Ultimately, my objective goes beyond simply focusing on gaining points in a subject. I firmly believe in this approach due to my experience as a Mental Coach working with young athletes between Nice and Cannes, as well as throughout Europe via video conferencing, as part of their preparation for the French Tennis Championships. It has reinforced my conviction that working on a subject should be a nurtured objective that encompasses personal growth and development. As a Professor in General Education, specializing mainly in scientific subjects, I suggest supporting your child in gaining agility in constructing their academic path during this unique period that is filled with both opportunities and challenges. Looking forward to meeting you soon, Corinne. Teacher and Professional Coach Courses offered: - Mathematics / Sciences / Biology - French / French as a Foreign Language - History geography 💼 1000 Trained professionals 🎓🏆 1000 Students and High-Level Athletes in 11 Universities, Sports Clubs, and Schools 🎧 5000 Hours of collective training carried out in person and through E-Learning 🎤 1000 Face-to-Face and E-Learning Conference Hours 👫 6000 Individual Training Hours | Personalized support.

Philosophy to prepare for the final baccalaureate exam
I propose to give lessons on the method in order to best succeed in the final philosophy exam. Indeed, the most important thing is to understand the method of constructing your essay.
