£50What is sociology? An introductory course on key concepts
The course entitled ‘What is sociology?’ is taken from a textbook. The textbook is a comprehensive exploration of sociology, aimed at both students and educators. It explores various aspects of sociology and provides a rich understanding of social structures, institutions and their impact on human behaviour and the organisation of society. The course follows the same lines. It will cover, among other topics: 1- **Social structures and institutions** and their complex dynamics as well as institutions, highlighting their profound effects on human behaviour and the organisation of society. The importance of capturing these subtleties in order to better understand the evolution and transformation of society will be emphasised. 2- **Social Change and Movements**: We will explore the formidable forces of social change and the movements that shape human society. These movements reflect the aspirations and struggles of individuals and communities striving for a more equitable world. 3- **Sociology of Religion**: An overview will be given of how religion influences and is influenced by social structures, cultural values and individual experiences. 4- **Research Methodologies**: The essential role of research methodologies in sociology will be highlighted, including quantitative, qualitative, mixed methods, experimental and comparative approaches. These methodologies allow us to uncover valuable information about behaviour, structures and social transformations while respecting ethical principles designed to protect research participants and preserve the integrity of the research. - Historical perspective**: We will also trace the historical trajectory of sociology as a dynamic discipline that adapts to an ever-changing social environment. Various perspectives will be combined to provide a holistic understanding of the social world, and inform initiatives to solve social problems and advocate for social equity. Overall, the course provides a theoretical foundation for understanding key sociological concepts and their application to the analysis and resolution of societal complexities. It will be supplemented by practical exercises in content analysis, text intelligence, etc.

£31Conversation in English through Positive Psychology
What are the sessions about? The sessions are to work on conversation in English through topics and content of psychology, well-being and self-help. The presentation is designed so that the person shares their comments on several occasions and elaborates responses using common vocabulary, improving conversation, fluency, vocabulary, and pronunciation. The content is on positive psychology topics, where tools for life are acquired through information and reflection exercises. Breathing techniques, mindfulness, gratitude, habits, resilience, flow state, resistance to change, and more are mentioned and used. Why use positive psychology content? According to several studies, including a study conducted by Cambridge in 2022, the best method to learn a language is through immersion (exposure and engagement). This means that when we learn topics or activities that interest us, the brain activates the prefrontal cortex, the striatum, the limbic system, and the hippocampus, which are the areas of long-term memory, motivation, concentration, reward, and emotional experience. These functions together create greater receptivity to new information. It is about talking about topics that motivate and interest us to enhance learning. They are also life tools that benefit us all. The more a person opens up to talking and reflecting on their personal experiences, whether positive or negative, the more they will be able to handle life's difficulties and improve their well-being. What level should I be at? Once you understand the written and/or spoken language, and can say the basics, we can start working. It doesn't matter if your level is basic, since that's exactly what the sessions are for. When you try to create a statement with interesting content, the areas of the brain that promote learning are activated. Here, through the chat, pronunciation and grammar are corrected, new vocabulary is added, and the correct way to say what is desired is taught. The person is asked to repeat the statement "correctly" and that's how learning takes place. How long will it take to see changes? The time varies for each person, as it depends on their initial level, and if the method is compatible with their way of learning. It is recommended to evaluate if this method is suitable for you, after the first session. However, due to previous experience with people at a basic - intermediate level, changes in fluency are seen from the first two or three sessions. From the first or second session you will notice more comfort when speaking and listening to the language. What mental health benefits can I get from sessions other than language? The sessions are taught by a clinical psychologist trained in positive psychology and other therapy methods. Some of them can be used in the sessions. The topics covered encourage conversations about personal life, and only if it is of interest to the person, can they delve into it and use this space to work on certain topics through psychological guidance. Additionally, information supported by scientific evidence will be provided, on tools for greater emotional well-being based on positive psychology, and reflection on mental and personal habits will be encouraged. Important: This is NOT, nor does it seek to replace, psychological therapy. Issues that require further exploration and/or external help will be referred to a therapy or a professional as appropriate. By what means can I take the session and how many frequencies do I need? Most sessions are via Zoom. The teacher will send you the link via WhatsApp or email and at the time of your session you can access it via a device. It is recommended once a week if the session is individual. You will notice that they are very complete and you may be a little tired after the session, if you are not very familiar with the language. If the session is in a group of two or more people, it can be once or twice a week. We will talk about many interpersonal topics in the session and we may follow up during the week by sharing relevant content via WhatsApp and voice notes, also in English for both parties to continue practicing fluency and vocabulary. It can be in person in Monterrey, Nuevo León in groups of 3 or more, or within the Republic for workshops.

Koreaanse cursus/Online Korean/Easy Korean/Let's have fun learning Korean!/TOPIK (Hengelo)
Sanghee
I already had a few lessons with Sanghee and I can definitely recommend her! Her patient and interactive teaching style work very well together with her well planned, organized lessons and her nice personality. Her classes are completely in Korean so that in itself teaches you a lot and will improve your speaking abilities immediately, especially if speaking in Korean is still difficult for you. If you don't understand something she of course will switch to English. The homework also keeps my study drive going and I already have the feeling that I can express myself better in Korean. :)

CHEMISTRY and BIOLOGY (Cambridge IGCSE / O-Levels / Person Edexcel / Oxford AQA Int, GCSE / AS & A-LEVELS / IB Diploma) (Tokyo)
Benson
After my first lesson with Benson, i have felt more confidence in my skills with chemistry than i have in many years. Where I previously felt very subconscious and unable to answer questions, i have now been able to answer difficult IB exams questions with ease. Benson provided me a safe and comfortable environment which has left me excited for my next class at school to show what i have learned with a fresh confidence! I highly recommend this tutor to anyone who struggles with confidence in both themselves and their subjects.

LEARN OR IMPROVE YOUR SPANISH WITH A NATIVE SPANISH TEACHER (Palma de Mallorca)
Carlos
Carlos is an amazing teacher! I have learned more studying with him in a few months then I have learned in a year with other teachers. He is patient, knowledgeable and organized. We have good conversations and he really knows how to activate the language and give confidence to his students. For more basic students like myself it's very useful that he can speak other languages so well, although we use mostly Spanish in our lessons. He is simply the best! I highly recommend Carlos as a teacher!
