Philosophy - How to think critically and reason ethically
Students learn:
Critical thinking: Philosophy teaches you how to analyze arguments, identify fallacies, and evaluate evidence. This skill is valuable not only in academic pursuits but also in everyday decision-making and problem-solving.
Ethical reasoning: Philosophy delves into questions of morality, exploring concepts such as justice, rights, and the nature of good and evil. Studying ethics can help you develop a thoughtful approach to ethical dilemmas and a deeper understanding of your own values.
Metaphysical inquiry: Philosophy investigates fundamental questions about the nature of reality, existence, and the universe. This exploration can lead to insights about the nature of being, consciousness, and the relationship between mind and body.
Epistemology: Philosophy examines the nature of knowledge, belief, and truth. By studying epistemology, you can gain a better understanding of how we acquire knowledge, the limits of human understanding, and the criteria for justified belief.
Logic: Philosophy involves rigorous logical analysis and reasoning. Studying logic can enhance your ability to construct clear arguments, recognize valid reasoning, and detect inconsistencies.
Cultural and historical perspectives: Philosophy encompasses a rich history of ideas spanning cultures and time periods. By studying philosophical texts and movements, you can gain insight into different worldviews, traditions, and intellectual trends.
Self-reflection: Philosophy encourages introspection and reflection on fundamental questions about existence, meaning, and purpose. Engaging with philosophical ideas can prompt personal growth and foster a deeper understanding of yourself and your place in the world.
As a tutor I want to provide the following:
Conceptual Understanding: A tutor helps students grasp fundamental philosophical concepts such as ethics, metaphysics, epistemology, and logic. They explain complex ideas in a clear and accessible manner, breaking down abstract concepts into digestible parts.
Textual Analysis: Philosophy often involves close reading and analysis of primary texts by influential philosophers. Tutors assist students in understanding the nuances of philosophical texts, interpreting difficult passages, and identifying key arguments and themes.
Critical Thinking Skills: Tutors help students develop critical thinking skills by engaging them in discussions, debates, and exercises that require them to analyze arguments, identify assumptions, and evaluate evidence. They encourage students to question assumptions, think logically, and articulate their own views effectively.
Essay Writing: Philosophy coursework typically involves writing essays that present and defend arguments on philosophical topics. Tutors provide guidance on essay structure, argumentation, and clarity of expression. They help students develop their writing skills, refine their arguments, and support their claims with evidence.
Exam Preparation: Tutors assist students in preparing for exams by reviewing course material, discussing key concepts and themes, and practicing sample questions. They help students develop effective study strategies, manage their time efficiently, and build confidence in their understanding of the material.
Research Skills: Philosophy often requires students to conduct independent research on specific topics or philosophers. Tutors teach students how to locate relevant sources, evaluate the credibility of information, and incorporate research findings into their writing effectively.
Personalized Support: Tutors provide individualized support tailored to the needs of each student. They identify areas where students may be struggling and offer targeted assistance to help them overcome challenges and achieve academic success.

Camille
Philosophy professor in Geneva, personalized support for guaranteed success and greater serenity.I have a Master 2 degree in philosophy and I teach this subject.
I am deeply passionate about this field as well as about pedagogy and transmission. It is a real pleasure to help my students improve through this special relationship that is established during the courses. Likewise, I have a real ability to grasp your personality, your strengths and your unique difficulties. My support is completely individualized and I prepare my own courses that respect the official programs. Also, I offer regular follow-up by email.
Regarding my methodology, first of all I am keen to get to know my students. The first class is always led by a time of discussion around the student's personal expectations and profile. In addition, it seems absolutely crucial to me to always provide solid methodological bases to all of my learners. This is why a detour via the methods specific to philosophy exercises is systematically made with students preparing for the maturity or the baccalaureate. Then, depending on the specific needs of the student, I adapt the session and it is often structured around two moments: on the one hand, I give a lecture on a concept, an author or conceptual distinctions, and on the other hand I lead practical exercises. Finally, digital documents can be sent to the student later, this is important so that they can keep a record of our work.
Feel free to contact me for more information.
I travel to homes in the following municipalities: Geneva and its surrounding areas, Collonges-sous-Salève, Archamps, Saint-Julien-en-Genevois, Viry.
The courses can also take place by videoconference, in which case there are no travel costs.
See you soon.
Best regards,
Camille
Loraine
Philosophy or French courses, from beginner level (in French) or college (French-philosophy), up to preparatory classDuring our first interview, I suggest discussing with the student their needs and difficulties. In philosophy, it is often a question of going over the course again, working on the method (dissertation, text commentary), and exploring some references in more depth. Subsequently, the course is often structured around a question, a theme or a subject of philosophy, which we learn to deal with together. I also support people in preparatory classes, having myself studied in B/L for two years.
In French, our work takes several directions, depending on the level and needs of the student: FLE, spelling or grammar lessons, but also method (dissertation, text commentary), or explanation of the course in literature.

At the end of it will be possible to write an essay, a story or an academic paper on the reflections you make around the novel you choose. You can suggest ideas for discussion and reading. The only requirement is an intermediate level of the language where you can understand listening. As for writing, reading and speaking, this will work throughout the course to improve your skills.

May
A graduate of HEC Paris / Sorbonne gives courses in philosophy and general culture (high school/prepa level).Hello everyone,
My name is May, I am Franco-English and I offer online courses in philosophy and general culture.
I have been giving private lessons for 8 years. I always try to adapt as well as possible to each of my students, and to pass on to them the enthusiasm I have for philosophy. My classes are always caring, and demanding without being strict - I believe you learn best when you are relaxed and having fun. Especially when studying philosophy, which is above all incredible gymnastics for the mind, and a means of discovering other ways of thinking about the world, the things around us, human relationships. I remain attentive to my students and seek the best ways to move forward with them, to develop their analytical skills, and to consolidate their methodology while exploring fascinating subject matter.
I live in London where I am a writer, actress and director. I did a baccalaureate L (with honors TB), studied in the hypokhâgne/khâgne literary preparatory class at the Lycée Henri IV, then at HEC Paris (Msc in Business) and at the Sorbonne (bachelor's degree in philosophy, honors TB).
Do not hesitate to contact me for more information and to discuss your expectations.
See you soon !
