Political Communication, Public Speaking, and PresentationThe course module is adapted to the student.
The summary will be communicated during the first lesson.
I teach you to speak and/or write with an approach to the sciences of political communication, international relations, social and human sciences while convincing the person(s) in front of you with several negotiation techniques.
▪️ Political communication is about the creation and exchange of ideas and opinions between citizens, public officials, political institutions, and related entities, such as the media. It includes discourse throughout the political process in local, state, national, and international political systems, as well as how political information can be exploited for political ends or to achieve political goals. People with a background in political communication may work in policy advice, foreign service, market research, public relations, journalism, and digital media, community organizing, lobbying, political campaigning, or other related fields.
▪️ The techniques used will improve your level of confidence in your public presentations and storytelling.
▪️ BUT! in order to achieve your goal you must master public speaking which is the process or act of giving a speech in front of a live audience. Public speaking is generally understood to be formal, face to face, speaking from a single person to a group of listeners.

I will be doing legal research and writing servicesA knowledgeable lawyer and legal services provider
Hello, dear customer. Meet your legal professional. I'm currently a practicing attorney, skilled writer, and online researcher who delivers exactly what I promise. The legal profession, research, and writing have been my passions since the early years of my legal career, and through learning and experience, I have sufficiently honed my skills in these areas. In addition, I am currently pursuing my P.HD, a degree that I believe is an added advantage to my expertise. Do not hesitate to entrust me with your task and expect the best from my services. Thank you in advance, and stay safe.
In this lesson I will guide you through the process of conducting legal research and writing legal documents.
- Legal Research: The tutor will explain how to conduct legal research, which is a critical skill for anyone involved in the legal field. This includes understanding how to use legal databases, how to find and interpret statutes, regulations, and case law, and how to stay updated with recent legal developments. The tutor will also cover how to analyze legal problems and apply the law to specific scenarios.
- Legal Writing: The tutor will then move on to legal writing, another essential skill for legal professionals. This involves learning how to write various legal documents such as briefs, memos, contracts, and legal opinions. The tutor will provide tips on how to write clearly and persuasively, how to structure your arguments, and how to cite legal authorities correctly.
- Practical Exercises: Throughout the lesson, the tutor will provide practical exercises to help you apply what you've learned. This might involve researching a particular legal issue or drafting a legal document.
- Feedback and Improvement: The tutor will provide feedback on your work, helping you to improve your legal research and writing skills. They will point out any areas of weakness and provide suggestions for improvement.
This lesson is designed for anyone interested in law, whether you're a law student, a legal professional looking to brush up on your skills, or someone considering a career in law. It provides a solid foundation in legal research and writing, two of the most important skills for any legal professional.

Courses in Philosophy, Ethics and Critical ThinkingPhilosophy is much more than a simple method; it's a more general way of positioning ourselves, even a way of life. At its core, it's critical thinking and the ability to see beyond what's left unsaid and unclear, and to find information, question, and arrive at a more nuanced vision of the world.
Together we will begin with everyday facts to explore the foundations of philosophy, look for clues in the history of thought and learn to be independent in our critical thinking.
I also support the questioning of major texts and problems posed in literature courses, philosophy courses in middle school, and preparation for the Swiss maturity, see prep for university studies.
NB: Particular interest in feminism to better understand current societal issues is welcome. I reserve the right to refuse any indecent or misogynistic contact.
