    Philosophy lessons and tutoring (proof-reading for papers and exam preparation are also possible)

    I recently graduated with honors from an Advanced Master in Philosophy at KU Leuven. I have given lessons in Philosophy from high-school to undergrad professorship in my home country. A wide range of the topics of my interest (Ethics, Logic, Metaphysics, Phenomenology) and a passion for teaching always motivates me to make the teaching/tutoring experience both enriching and enjoyable.

    Struggling with a subject in the area of Philosophy or just want to dive into philosophical thinking? You’re in the right place! I also offer proof-reading and preparation of papers/exams (it will imply an extra cost, so please mention it when you book the lesson).

    About Me

    I am Paulo. I am Mexican and since I can remember, I have always been very passionate about music. I also play bass guitar, some drums, and some keys whenever needed! I am currently a student of an advanced master’s degree in philosophy at KU Leuven, looking forward for a PhD position. I have experience both as a teacher and as a university undergrad professor, so teaching has always been a part of my career. My aim while teaching has always been to make the process of learning an enjoyable experience, and music is no exception to that!

    Education

    - Master degree and Advanced Master in Philosophy, KU Leuven.
    - BA degree in Philosophy, Universidad de Guadalajara.
    - Freie Universität Berlin (research exchange)
    - St. Olaf College, USA (research exanche)

    Experience / Qualifications

    - Universidad La Salle (Germanistic Studies Professor)
    - Academia Europea (English, German, and Spanish teacher)
    - Universidad Internacional (Literature, Ethic, Philosophy)
    - Performed since ca. 2004 in bands with a wide array of genera: rock, metal, blues, pop, folk, country and even some jazz. I have live experience in several countries (Mexico, USA, Germany, and Belgium) and have given music lessons for several years now.
    Have you always wanted to play guitar or had the musical curiosity to develop your skills on a 6-string? Or maybe you’d like your children to learn an instrument? Learning guitar is a great way to further explore your own capabilities and to develop a deeper enjoyment and understanding of music. Music is, also, a very powerful tool for emotional self-regulation. I have years of experience performing for live audiences with local bands in different countries (Mexico, USA, Germany, Belgium), from rock, metal, blues, indie, pop, and even folk. I always adapt my lessons to the student’s intuition and to what the student wants to achieve (from learning their favorite songs to particular techniques). To enjoy and have fun playing is always very central to my lessons. You can also add basic music theory, and some singing techniques to broaden your musical experience (only the basic singing lessons would represent an extra cost). Let’s awaken the dormant artist in you!
    Would you like to learn Spanish and dive into Spanish-speaking culture (films, literature, music)? Spanish is the fourth most spoken language in the world, present in a whole continent. By learning Spanish, you’ll get access to a whole cultural world, expanding your intercultural and communicational skills. With years of experience in language academies, I adapt to the goals, needs, and level of each of my students. We will also dive into Spanish-spoken literature (narrative, short-story, poetry), films, and music to broaden the learning experience! Do not hesitate and start learning, or improving, your Spanish in a dynamic and enjoyable way!

    Philosophy to prepare for the final baccalaureate exam
    I propose to give lessons on the method in order to best succeed in the final philosophy exam. Indeed, the most important thing is to understand the method of constructing your essay. Based on the courses and the concepts, together we will seek to write ideas and concepts in a "logical" way for the construction of the argument that is requested. Obviously, I remain open to any special request; do not hesitate to contact me to discuss your desires/expectations.

    PHILOSOPHY OF HISTORY - THEORY OF HISTORY TODAY
    In this course we will work on an in-depth analysis of four key texts to understand the changes that have taken place in contemporary philosophy and history, as well as their implications for current and future social life. We will understand the inseparable link between philosophy, history, knowledge and social conflict. If you are a very curious and dedicated student, I look forward to seeing you in this course that will be demanding and meticulous, but it could change your way of thinking for the better in a definitive way.

    A study of the revealed books, Lesson One: “Come, let us ascend.”
    May the peace, mercy, and blessings of God be upon you. I am pleased to present to you a reading and analysis of the texts of the holy books of the people of monotheism. Maybe I'll start from Isaiah's prophecy. And it shall come to pass in the latter days, that the mountain of the Lord's house shall be established in the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills, and all nations shall flow unto it. 3And many peoples shall come, and they shall say, Come, let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, to the house of the God of Jacob: and he shall teach us his ways, and we shall walk in his paths. For out of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem.

    Myriam
    French literature and language, English literature and language, Philosophy
    My pedagogy relies essentially on my students’ personal goals. I generally offer a free first session of around thirty to forty-five minutes to exchange with students and familiarise myself with their objectives, whether it be academic support for their schoolwork, a desire to deepen their knowledge of the subject, or simply to improve their conversation and writing skills for my language classes. The next classes last about an hour with the number and frequency of sessions depending on the student’s needs. I teach all levels from beginners up to A-levels and work online. If you would like to book a session or find out more about my lessons please get in touch!

    Georgina
    Philosophy, Religious Studies, English Literature to highest standard
    A graduate of the University of Oxford, I offer tutoring up to undergraduate standard in philosophy, theology and religious studies, and up to A-Level standard in English literature. Students are guided carefully through relevant course material, and the structure of the lessons closely follows that of the Oxbridge tutorial system - an essay or essay plan is to be prepared as homework in advance of the meeting, and we will build on this and test the foundations of the essay in the lesson. We will work together through past papers if the student is preparing for exams. I can also help with university applications to Oxford/Cambridge. A keen tutor and researcher, I have strong foundations in the subjects I tutor, having studied Philosophy & Theology at Oxford University after achieving A*AA in my A-Levels and receiving the school prize for Religious Studies. I enjoy engaging students in the subject matter, finding ways to make dry course material inspiring. I focus especially on building students' confidence.

    Philosophy: General Philosophy and Specific Area Tutoring
    Philosophy is the underpinning of life, knowledge and civilisation itself. Its effects are found in every field and there is no element of life which is left unchallenged by one of its branches. Metaphysics tackles all that is, epistemology challenges how we may even speak of knowledge and logic stands behind all the marvels of our age. If you are an interested beginner, someone wishing to return to the discipline or even a current student then this course is for you. In this course we will tackle the basics of philosophy from Greece to France and to Germany. We will explore areas of metaphysics, logic, empiricism, rationalism and phenomenology. While such words may sound intimidating, within a short time they will loose their incomprehensible air. This course is taught by a seasoned and qualified tutor with half a decade of formal philosophical training alongside 2 years of in person philosophical teaching alongside another 2 years of philosophical tutoring. In addition you will be benefiting from an additional 4 years of teaching students of all levels from teenagers to young adults and beyond. This course also comes from a current philosopher currently publishing first class research in the field of phenomenology and the philosophy of love. This is a remote course taught from UK time zone. However, all time zones may be possible. The course has the possibility of being specialized for a specific need. If such is the case, the details will be arranged beforehand.
