Introduction to Contemporary Political Theories and their developments

Political Theories mainly explore the theories around political structures that make up different societies. Introduction to Political Theories, as the name suggests provides students with explanations and insights into these seemingly overwhelming political theories, enabling one to understand their intricacies and evolution. These classes will prove to be of much use for someone who is just starting a bachelor's degree in political science. Also, students who are interested in International Relations might find these classes useful due to the context of the course being wholly international. The theories can get complicated quickly real soon and these classes will serve the purpose of getting the concepts cleared thoroughly.

The classes will cover the following topics:
Liberalism and its various forms
Socialism and its variants
Communism and its developments
Feminism and its evolution
Understanding the role of theories in historical and contemporary geopolitical conflicts
The Liberalism and Communism debates
Addressing the Glass Ceiling in Feminism

The resources will be provided by me and shall be plenty. Being a scholar myself, there won't be any shortage of subject material to study and understand. Moreover, the classes can be modified to a reasonable extent in accordance with the student's syllabus or requirements.

In a world where everyone's political opinions are getting quickly inflated and highlighted through social media, they can also affect mental health to some extent. Then, the only solution that remains is to understand the theories better. All of these billions of opinions are merely versions of the developments of a handful of these political theories. Owing to the nature of the classes they may also be useful for people who are curious about topics such as economics, political science, and history.

Extra information

It is adviced to carry a laptop or even just phone to access digital resources which the classes will pick up from.
Owing to the nature of my teaching no prior preparation is necessary for these classes. I shall be using a descriptive approach based on logic and reasoning based on comparative analysis.

About Me

I have been an academic student for about 20 years of my life, and as a teacher, I've been for around 10. I come from a family of doctorates in biotechnology, botany, microbiology, taxonomy, and others. But I hold some other subjects dear. The 'trinity' in particular. Political Science, Economics, and History. Over the years I've studied them in forms ranging from Philosophy, Philanthropy, Psychology, and Anthropology, to Human Resources, International Politics, International Law, and Marketing. Additionally, I've got a few grandparents who have studied Sanskrit, Vedic Sciences, and Classical Music. So I've got a bit of that in me as well.
Something less academic about me would be that I really am into adventure sports. Particularly white water rafting which I've done across The Himalayas. Another thing that I really associate myself with is being a motorcycle rider. Driving in the mountains is a cheaper alternative for therapy and I'm an international student so life finds a way.
Speaking of life, I currently am a CIPD Associate HR based in London and have lived here for slightly more than a year now. All my life I've grown around learning and imparting knowledge. I was involved in two national debating circles and about a dozen international and national model united nations across my early college years but I didn't miss the better parts as well. I have tried my hands at painting, singing, poetry, and writing at both national levels. Till now I have taught and educated about a thousand students from all walks of life and in that process i got educated as well. Looking forward to more students now.

Education

Completed schooling in humanities (Psychology, Political Science and Economics) with an overall percentage of 95% and a 100% in Political Science.
Attained a Bachelor's Degree in Political Science from the University of Delhi. CGPA 6.9 with 11 distinction modules out of the total 15.
Completed a Master's Degree in International Human Resource Management from the University of Westminster. Graduated with Merit and Distinctions in core modules.

Experience / Qualifications

I have about 6 years of experience teaching, both casually and formally.
In terms of qualifications, I am an approved CIPD Associate Member.

History and geopolitics courses in middle and high school
Learn the methodology in dissertation and document analysis from middle school as well as high school. This is what is present in History Geography and in the HGGSP specialty, and I offer courses aimed, in addition to helping the learning of courses in these subjects, to put it into practice in an exercise with a built methodology. It is this methodology that I teach, in order to provide the student with independence. I can also provide homework help in these classes, as well as re-explain and repeat poorly understood course points. As for speaking in public, it is necessary for the oral exams at the end of high school. I have been part of a debate group for 3 years and have acquired a certain mastery there. I am a student in high school, in the final year and I already have experience in helping with homework in my high school. I also chose the HGGSP specialty (geopolitics and political science) in second and I obtained my baccalaureate in this subject.

Political Communication, Public Speaking, and Presentation
The 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.

Philosophical and/or Sociological Theory: Tailored Lessons and Guided Study
This class offers personalized instruction in philosophical and/or sociological theory, suited both for students seeking academic support and for individuals with a general interest in a philosophical topic. Sessions are designed according to the student’s goals, whether it’s clarifying course material, preparing written assignments, or exploring theoretical texts independently. I am currently completing a Master of Arts in Philosophy. My areas of specialization include ancient philosophy, early modern philosophy, and phenomenology. I also hold a background in sociology, which allows me to offer interdisciplinary approaches to social theory and critical thought. Sessions can be focused on specific authors or movements (e.g. Plato, Spinoza, feminist theory), or organized thematically around concepts such as love, beauty, perception, or subjectivity. The goal is to foster rigorous but accessible understanding, with attention to both conceptual clarity and historical context.

How to be Happy: The Science and Philosophy of Happiness
Are you happy? Hey, my name's Dan, and I want to offer you a course all about exploring what happiness is and how you can achieve it. To do this, we'll be integrating modern scientific research and evidence with millennia of ancient philosophies, belief systems, and cultural insights. By doing this, you get all the wisdom you need and it's all backed by science! This course will give you a new worldview on life to make you happier, wiser, and more self-aware. To do this, we don't just look at happiness- we look at human nature itself, evolution, the human brain, the body, morality, religion, emotions, meaning, self-actualisation, self-transcendence, and much more. All of these topics are explored from scientific and philosophical perspectives, drawing on what the experts and evidence in all these fields are saying. And none of this is abstract: this whole course is all about giving practical advice to help you become the best version of yourself. But unlike other courses on happiness, all that advice is backed by real, trustworthy scientific research: so we know that it all works. This course is for absolutely everyone. Whether you stopped science before GCSEs or chose it as your career, this course has a colossal amount of information that I've integrated from lots of different fields, and can present to you in an easy and friendly way. For more information on the course's structure and what we'll be doing together, just drop me a message. Take care!

Courses in Philosophy, Ethics and Critical Thinking
Philosophy 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.
