Van 44.58 $ /h

This 60-minute course provides a concise overview of the Ukrainian conflicts since 2014, exploring their complex recent history and deep-seated roots. We will begin by examining the immediate catalysts: the Euromaidan Revolution, Russia's annexation of Crimea, and the initial outbreak of conflict in the Donbas. The course will delve into the intertwined political, historical, and geopolitical factors that underpin the ongoing hostilities, including Ukraine's pursuit of closer ties with the European Union and NATO, Russia's security concerns and imperial ambitions, and the historical narratives shaping national identities. We will trace the evolution of the conflict from the initial phase in Donbas to the full-scale invasion in 2022, analyzing key events, international responses, and the devastating humanitarian consequences. By the end, participants will gain a clearer understanding of the multifaceted origins and trajectory of the Ukrainian wars.

The role of the Financial crisis in the wake of 1789: the political role of the public debt

59.44 $ /h

This 60-minute course examines the pivotal role of France's crippling public debt in the lead-up to the 1789 Revolution. We will explore how decades of costly wars left the monarchy fiscally insolvent. The course will reveal how the Crown's attempts to reform the tax system—and extend taxation to the privileged nobility and clergy—sparked a political showdown. We will analyze how the aristocracy’s refusal to sacrifice its fiscal exemptions created a constitutional deadlock, forcing the king to convene the Estates-General for the first time in over 150 years. Ultimately, this course demonstrates that the financial crisis was not merely an economic problem, but a deeply political one that catalyzed the collapse of the Ancien Régime. (based on academic research)

History and politics have always been a passion of mine and I am very much willing to teach anyone who desires any tutoring. At times it can be very difficult and overwhelming if you need to make an exam or write an essay - I can be there to help in case you need guidance! The goal here would be to make you understand history better, organize patterns in your head and possibly make you love the subject! This should definitely help in either expanding your worldview, or enhancing your history grades. I am willing to teach history (or politics/maatschappijleer) in Dutch or English.

I have little preference in regard to eras or themes in history, but if you must know I especially enjoy political and military macro-history. The grand patterns throughout history fascinate me, with of course, attention to large events. No era or area is particularly strange to me, again, being able to process history is the goal here!

The grand goal is to get a basic, intermediate or advanced understanding in one of the subjects. I could, possibly, rehearse with you and ask you how fluent you are in the topics at hand. I am fully willing to adapt to the student his or her academic needs. In case you wish me to help you in structuring or writing a history essay, then this, too is no problem!

Supervision at all levels - preparation for BAC exams
Accompaniment and follow-up for history, geography and philosophy courses
All courses are given in a pleasant, dynamic, non-stressful and caring atmosphere, my goal being to listen to the student, to interest them in the subject taught because in my opinion, the key word of any study is “pleasure”. no matter the difficulties to overcome!

German is a beautiful language, which combines the creativity of its Romantic roots with the logic of its Prussian heritage.
As somebody who lived in Berlin for 13 years and breathed German language and culture all along, I can help you in improving both your spoken and your written German.
Tricks, rules and will provide the participant with the resources and the skills to enjoy the language of both Goethe and Rammstein in a completely different manner from the get go.
Los geht's!

History isn’t always easy. Maybe you just need to get another look on it.
I’ll give you some tips and tricks to memorize faster and reproduce it like you were in the events.

I will welcome you in the very interesting world of history. As a student in history I have lots of own books. If you have a book you don’t like, hand it to me and I’ll help you to make it nice ;)

The subjects of World History and Social Studies are often left aside as they are seen as less useful that the other subjects, but I believe children can learn a lot from observing and learning about what happened in the past and what happens today. I want to share my knowledge about these subjects with them while also helping them managing the knowledge they already have and need to learn. In schools, history is often taught through learning dates and events but history should be taught in the form of a story, which is easier to remember, and the useful information will stick longer.
I am willing to help my students with the homework they have as well and teach them some skills in how to organize and manage the work they receive.

I have teaching experience in international schools in Qatar, Italy and the US with students in middle school and high school, having taught the American curriculum and the International Baccalaureates curriculum.

Thank you for your time :)
