Basic Research - How to understand the research process and how to apply it

Social science research is often a very intimidating subject. Many students are intimidated by the thought of conducting research. The course introduces and understanding of how research is conducted, how it differs from other classes and homework and why research is conducted in the manner it is.

This class is useful to all students. It will teach students to present thoughtful and supported work in their papers, understand the use of words and numbers, and how to present their work and the work of others in a professional manner. This will also maximize the critical thinking skills of students while giving them more confidence in their own abilities.

About Me

I suffered from stage fright ('speech anxiety') and found out the hard way, in front of a large audience. My future jobs I knew would require me to speak often in public, often under very difficult circumstances.

Not long after, I was sent to various engagements to be the speaker instead of others. I began teaching the subject at colleges in the evening and consulting with prominent public speakers to improve their skills and effectiveness.

What most don't realize is that those who fear communication or public speaking the most, almost always show the most improvement. It takes stumbling without fear, not worrying about mistakes and the realization that we all suffer insecurities. In other words, we manage, overcome and thrive.

Education

I have a PhD in research and have applied that to many areas, including public speaking, messaging, press conferences, group dynamics, systems, etc. I also try to recreate real-world settings and experiences so students can be wholly engaged in their own learning process.

Experience / Qualifications

I have been advising, consulting and actually conducting many public speaking engagements for 35 years. At a young age, I knew I was bad and had to get better. Within a short time, I was teaching college students how to do it in the evening, advising politicians on how to improve, and engaging regularly in public speaking events. Not all go well. However, just like anything, a person can learn far more by failures or when things don't go well then they do by successes.
Students will gain a much better understanding of US and international political and governing systems. This will be of great help to students to understand how culture, history, and communication impact various political systems. Issues will be examined objectively so students can gain a clearer understanding of what they see in the media and hear from friends, family and social circles. This course teaches how to look at the evidence and facts and remove bias in order to faint a greater understanding of various ideologies, political philosophies, and influences on political systems. The course teaches students how to think, reason and develop their own world views when they are ready and to understand the views of others as they learn about political influences.
This course is designed for students and participants of all backgrounds to vastly improve their public speaking abilities and confidence in communication. Rather than focusing on standardized methods, this course focuses on the individual speaker's needs and is tailored directly toward those areas that are assets as well as to improve on any weakness. The most important characteristic to improve is confidence, no matter how a particular speech goes. It's a process that turns fear into a challenge and then a challenge into fun. Public speaking is a very personal experience in a public setting. Each person is different and finding the approaches, methods, and styles that work for that particular person will help them to realize that not only can they do something most people hate, they may actually start enjoying it.

Ali
Medical student teaches SVT, biology and mathematics online
Hi! My name is Ali, a 4th year medical student with an overflowing passion for life sciences, biology and physiology. My academic background has allowed me to dive deep into these fascinating disciplines, and I have been fortunate to share this passion by teaching various students. Whether in the final year of high school, in the undergraduate program or even in private lessons for middle school students, I have helped learners demystify complex concepts in physiology, biophysics, immunology and biology. Nothing motivates me more than seeing a student overcome a challenge and understand a subject that seemed insurmountable. That spark of understanding is what I aim to provoke in each person I coach. Thanks to my varied experience with students of different ages and levels – from elementary school to university students preparing for competitions such as the LASS – I have refined a flexible teaching method adapted to each individual. Whether it is to explain concepts in depth, analyze errors in exercises, or mix the two, I am here to respond precisely to your needs. My age allows me to create a natural and fluid connection with my students, facilitating a climate of trust and exchange. Having completed my studies in basic sciences, I am ready to accompany you on subjects such as neurology, cardiology, and many others. Together, we will overcome academic obstacles to achieve your goals! Looking forward to starting this adventure with you!

Social Sciences Course - Arabic Language-Sociology
This course offers an interdisciplinary approach to exploring social sciences, philosophy and Arabic language learning. It aims to provide learners with a deep understanding of the fundamental concepts of social sciences, to develop critical thinking skills in philosophy. In social sciences, we will analyze social dynamics, institutions and social phenomena, such as mental health, education, family and inequality. Students will study classical and contemporary sociological theories while developing a critical understanding of the structures that govern society. Philosophy, for its part, will encourage an exploration of major ethical, existential and metaphysical questions, with an emphasis on reflection and logical reasoning. Students will be invited to question the concepts of justice, truth and freedom, and to connect these notions to contemporary issues. In parallel, learning the Arabic language will be aimed at non-native speakers wishing to develop their oral and written communication skills. The course will offer an immersion in the basics of grammar, vocabulary and cultural expressions, allowing students to express themselves in Arabic in various contexts.
