Alberto - Battersea£36
Trusted teacher: 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: It is true that the philosopher is the friend of wisdom, but above all, he is someone who does not want to make mistakes in reasoning. Philosophizing is a way of reasoning and a way of solving problems that will never have a perfect and definitive solution. Knowing the distance between the Earth and the Moon is not a problem of philosophy, because it is enough to measure to solve it. On the other hand, knowing, for example, what justice is, is a problem of philosophy. A meter will not be able to help us know the answer. We must go about it differently, and in the courses I offer, I will teach you how. You will learn - text reading strategies - case studies with the aim of learning from experts - methodology in philosophy - writing an essay - writing a text commentary - a work on the philosophers of your choice - an overview of the history of philosophy - the general culture necessary to be able to philosophize I will adapt to your individual needs. Each course is tailor-made. We will analyze where your difficulties lie and together develop a course program that will make you perform as quickly as possible. The basic principle of the courses I offer is dialectics, like Plato's dialogues: reflecting together, making theoretical contributions, asking questions and seeking answers, and testing the validity of reasoning. For the past 10 years, I have been teaching German using the philosophy methodology, having studied philosophy at the Master's level at Aix-Marseille University. It turns out that the analytical mind is very useful even outside the confines of philosophy. Today, there are even fields of activity such as management with philosophy or philotherapy. In recent years, some German students have asked me to also teach them philosophy courses, and that is why I decided to offer philosophy courses directly. I look forward to meeting you during a first lesson.

Symbolic writing philosophy Simplified explanations Literary texts Novels, poetry, and prose. Example: (1) Can we live in peace? I am almost certain from the beginning that this question is incorrect, and on the other hand, I add with conviction that the wording of this question is wrong, since the complexity that surrounds this title, or rather the motives that lie behind the curtain, makes it difficult to fathom its depths easily. At first glance, this article (inquiry or question) seems naive, like a question born of a little girl's innocence to her mother, like a spiritual breath that should be distributed fairly without being touched. But in reality, it is a mischievous question surrounded by many barriers, which are made by man himself. Therefore, it can be said that it seeks solutions to problems caused by the ignorance of superstitions, fanaticism, deviation, extremism, straying from the truth, evils, slipping into the abyss of religions, and so on. As for the penultimate point, it is a copy of the action and theorizing of the first suspect, as is the case since religion (its basic pillar) generally has a clear, sound, and logical goal, and its branches, most of which lie in organizing social life and contributing to its improvement, from the mothers of morality and settling disputes, inheritance, marriage, love, and enjoining good... some of which have been brought and others left for what has been revealed to us in a clear indication to us to complete the path in the best way. And here is the crux of the matter: this (thing) that is given that is likely to make peace or against it? To create conditions and means for making peace or breaking it? To decide on it or to deviate from it? So what is the matter of this peace that everyone loves morally and practically in spreading without end or limit and is not enabled! If we consider peace as a constitution with conditions, its articles and principles are the abstract moral terms by which a person acts in word and deed, in character and morals and even inwardly (intention) as it is a purity in the soul that does not need evidence seen in public or benefited from by a certain person or certain people to the exclusion of others in an indication of “selfishness” that undermines the principles of peace and affects its integrity, as we can look at the matter as the air for the lungs that has been corrupted and has crippled the work of the second. Now, when one considers the aesthetic and fundamental aspects of peace, its point of intersection becomes clear: humanity. Ironically, the very means by which it undermines the right path is the same means by which it poses questions that supposedly underpin the ultimate goal of peace—such as, "Can we live without violence... without conflict... without animosity... without hatred... etc."—without addressing the necessary justice and reality.

Kevin

rating green star
Kevin is a genius, who is capable of breaking down complex concepts into manageable, useful bits. If you think of a really large basket of vegetables and fruits. You know all the nutrients are good for you, but it would be tedious to try to eat it all raw. But then, you get a juicer or blender or 'Nutribullet', and juice all those vegetables and fruits into a refreshing smoothie. You can then drink that smoothie as quickly or slowly as you wish, and still get all the necessary nutrients... That's what Kevin can do - he juices all the complex intricacies of the German language into something you can understand and digest. His methods are unconventional, but very helpful in laying a proper foundation for a successful language learning journey. Very highly recommended.
