About Me

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
As a philosopher, journalist and curator (in the broadest sense of the word) I cherish a natural interest in people and their worlds. Teaching gives me the opportunity to involve myself with one of yours, while I share some of mine. I hope I can offer you your very own interpretation of the inspiring tools that where handed to me by the many thinkers that I have studied over the years. Heidegger, Kant, Derrida, Foucault, Benjamin, Bell Hooks, Donna Harraway, Bruno Latour are just a few of the many that I have familiarize myself with. I am curious to find out what inspires you!

Education

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
As a philosopher and cultural scientist (Field: Art, Culture & Politics) I owe a great deal to the University of Amsterdam, teachers as well as fellow students and researchers. For my career as a journalist and editor I have to give credit to many other mentors. Not just at the Hogeschool voor Journalistiek / School of Journalism Utrecht, but foremost in all the practices that followed it: Novum News Press Agency, RTL Nieuws, etc.

Experience / Qualifications

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
Like every philosopher I am fascinated by language. To make my sentences move along with all the twists and turns I have taken so far, I have followed many courses, expanding my skills for screenwriting, podcasts and many other exiting things, like my ecological fieldwork, in which I study bats. Teaching turned out to be a second nature, when I started helping out friends during covid19.

Good information and an action plan. I really liked it

As a creative copy professional and philosopher, I see every lesson as an experiment. To keep us both on the edge of our seats, I continuously explore new ways of teaching that fit your specific needs. Feel tempted? Book your first lesson and get one extra! Doubts? Dutch might feel a little violent to a delicate mouth in the beginning. But once you get passed that, a sea of inspiring and quirky new ways to express yourself will open up. To help you move beyond that hump, I will adjust my lessons to your personal passions and interests, including your specific reasons to speak and/or write in this language right now. Two kids that are roughly the same level can share one webcam lesson of one-hour minimum. Keep in mind that we will stay online for at least 15 minutes extra, as young ones will need at least two 5 minute breaks.
Whether it concerns your homework or the emails, letters and speeches at work. When you write and speak clearly and fluently, you get more done. A few webcam lessons can make all the difference. You feel more confident, which makes speaking and writing fun again. Try a lesson! Then we will see where your pain points are and whether my way of teaching appeals to you.

Dominic
Philosophy tutoring for high school and university students
Philosophy can often seem like a frustrating and alien academic field, with arbitrary questions and endless arguments. However with a experienced philosopher as a guide (such as myself) the discipline can be revealed as an exciting exploration of ourselves and the world around us. Depending on what interests you, or what your course requires you to study, we will read texts together, analyse concepts and arguments and actually practice philosophy by having discussions and refining arguments. Philosophy is a magic sword when it comes to navigating the modern world. As we are bombarded with information, a engaged philosophy education gives you the critical thinking and logical analysis skills dismiss the rhetoric and nonsense and find the truth and falsity in a statement, making you a better citizen and friend. My specialism is the philosophy of physics, including the philosophy of quantum mechanics, philosophy of science and philosophy of time. My other interests include metaphysics and the political philosophy.

Kejal
Private lessons in philosophy, French and English
School tutor with a literary baccalaureate from Rocroy Saint-Vincent de Paul (Paris 9), two years of CPGE AL from Jules Ferry (Paris 9), a degree and a Master's degree in philosophy from Paris I Panthéon-Sorbonne, always with honors, I give distance learning support courses in philosophy for the baccalaureate, for CPGE (preparatory classes for the grandes écoles) and undergraduate students, as well as French, literature and English courses from primary to final year, or for CPGE students. My goal is to help students progress with lectures or fun courses, typical training for preparing for written and oral exams (brevet, baccalaureate, oral exams, mid-terms, grandes écoles), and in-depth study of methodology, without overloading the students and always in a good mood by motivating them, reassuring them, and supporting them emotionally.

Arabic and Philosophy Courses for All Levels - Special Preparation Plan for 1st Year Baccalaureate Students!
My courses are aimed at students of all levels, from primary to university. Whether you are a beginner or an advanced student, my teaching methods adapt to your individual needs. I also offer an exceptionally dedicated plan for first year baccalaureate students, offering ongoing support throughout the year for preparation and revision for exams, including the regional exam. This specific program aims to strengthen necessary skills, consolidate knowledge and provide strategic guidance to excel in assessments.

Megane
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. Based on the courses and the concepts, together we will seek to write ideas and concepts in a "logical" way for the construction of the argument that is requested. Obviously, I remain open to any special request; do not hesitate to contact me to discuss your desires/expectations.

PHILOSOPHY OF HISTORY - THEORY OF HISTORY TODAY
In this course we will work on an in-depth analysis of four key texts to understand the changes that have taken place in contemporary philosophy and history, as well as their implications for current and future social life. We will understand the inseparable link between philosophy, history, knowledge and social conflict. If you are a very curious and dedicated student, I look forward to seeing you in this course that will be demanding and meticulous, but it could change your way of thinking for the better in a definitive way.

A study of the revealed books, Lesson One: “Come, let us ascend.”
May the peace, mercy, and blessings of God be upon you. I am pleased to present to you a reading and analysis of the texts of the holy books of the people of monotheism. Maybe I'll start from Isaiah's prophecy. And it shall come to pass in the latter days, that the mountain of the Lord's house shall be established in the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills, and all nations shall flow unto it. 3And many peoples shall come, and they shall say, Come, let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, to the house of the God of Jacob: and he shall teach us his ways, and we shall walk in his paths. For out of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem.

German Literature, English Language, Philosophy, Writing skills, UK University applications
I am an enthusiastic educator with 4 years experience in teaching and tutoring. Being a native speaker of both English and German, I can help you improve your language skills starting at any level. I hold a degree in German Literature and Philosophy from the University of Oxford and have experience tutoring both subjects. For the past two years I worked as a Teaching Assistant in a secondary school, preparing students to take their German GCSEs. I have done individual mentoring as well as small group interventions to help students with their specific needs. In addition, I have helped individuals on their journey applying to UK universities, from writing their Personal Statement to preparing for interviews at Oxbridge and other Russell Group universities.

"Dedicated tutor with a passion for education. Providing personalized guidance and support. Helping students unlock their understanding and achieve academic success. Patient and knowledgeable in explaining complex concepts. Empowering students to reach their full potential."

Myriam
French literature and language, English literature and language, Philosophy
My pedagogy relies essentially on my students’ personal goals. I generally offer a free first session of around thirty to forty-five minutes to exchange with students and familiarise myself with their objectives, whether it be academic support for their schoolwork, a desire to deepen their knowledge of the subject, or simply to improve their conversation and writing skills for my language classes. The next classes last about an hour with the number and frequency of sessions depending on the student’s needs. I teach all levels from beginners up to A-levels and work online. If you would like to book a session or find out more about my lessons please get in touch!

Georgina
Philosophy, Religious Studies, English Literature to highest standard
A graduate of the University of Oxford, I offer tutoring up to undergraduate standard in philosophy, theology and religious studies, and up to A-Level standard in English literature. Students are guided carefully through relevant course material, and the structure of the lessons closely follows that of the Oxbridge tutorial system - an essay or essay plan is to be prepared as homework in advance of the meeting, and we will build on this and test the foundations of the essay in the lesson. We will work together through past papers if the student is preparing for exams. I can also help with university applications to Oxford/Cambridge. A keen tutor and researcher, I have strong foundations in the subjects I tutor, having studied Philosophy & Theology at Oxford University after achieving A*AA in my A-Levels and receiving the school prize for Religious Studies. I enjoy engaging students in the subject matter, finding ways to make dry course material inspiring. I focus especially on building students' confidence.

Philosophy: General Philosophy and Specific Area Tutoring
Philosophy is the underpinning of life, knowledge and civilisation itself. Its effects are found in every field and there is no element of life which is left unchallenged by one of its branches. Metaphysics tackles all that is, epistemology challenges how we may even speak of knowledge and logic stands behind all the marvels of our age. If you are an interested beginner, someone wishing to return to the discipline or even a current student then this course is for you. In this course we will tackle the basics of philosophy from Greece to France and to Germany. We will explore areas of metaphysics, logic, empiricism, rationalism and phenomenology. While such words may sound intimidating, within a short time they will loose their incomprehensible air. This course is taught by a seasoned and qualified tutor with half a decade of formal philosophical training alongside 2 years of in person philosophical teaching alongside another 2 years of philosophical tutoring. In addition you will be benefiting from an additional 4 years of teaching students of all levels from teenagers to young adults and beyond. This course also comes from a current philosopher currently publishing first class research in the field of phenomenology and the philosophy of love. This is a remote course taught from UK time zone. However, all time zones may be possible. The course has the possibility of being specialized for a specific need. If such is the case, the details will be arranged beforehand.

Alan
Philosophy (Secondary school to University), French, English (Secondary school only)
I recently graduated from the University of Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne with a degree in Philosophy, and would like to use my knowledge and methods to help any student who needs it. As a tutor with the ALVEUS association, I have learnt to manage several students at the same time—and at different levels—in literary courses: philosophy, french, history-geography, english, german. I therefore invite you to study the three subjects indicated (philosophy, french, english) at the level you wish, either to consolidate your gaps or to get a head start on the program. To this end, I offer free access to my Dropbox, where I regularly post documents (exercises, subjects, methods, textbooks, books), to make sure you don't miss out on anything. I'm also friendly and dynamic in my tutorials, which gives my students a rhythm to their work, although they don't hate it—quite the opposite, in fact. I usually give feedback to each parent about their child, indicating the subjects worked on, exercises completed, strengths and weaknesses identified and, finally, anticipate the next tutoring session by planning what remains to be done. So you can be sure that your tutorials will be enjoyable and that you will see progress in the subject being taught.
