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

58.41 $ /Std

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)

French institutions (in French for B2/C1 students)

This 20-hour course (10 x 2 hours) offers both an introduction to French and European political history (the concept of the rule of law, revolutions, representative system), and a detailed introduction to the 5th Republic (history, President, National Assembly, Constitutional Council, decentralized and deconcentrated administrative organization of the territory, independent administrative authorities, etc.). In the last hour, a presentation of the political landscape party by party if there is time left. This course is aimed at French-speaking students of political science, communication and journalism, or anyone wishing to better understand the French institutional system. Questions and presentations can be given in English.

Whether English, German, Powi, history or ethics. I accompany you from the 5th to the 12th grade and support you with advice and support. I adapt to your questions and your performance and we approach the topic step by step. With the right approach, any subject can be fun.

I look forward to you all!

PS I only give tutoring in German and am not a German teacher, which is why it is difficult to teach children who do not speak German the language first.

I'm an Italian native speaker from Venice, Italy.
My country is quite diverse, known by many and yet often its funding elements and its culture are misrepresented and oversimplified. Language is key to get to know another culture, its history and political institutions.
With this course you will learn the basics of the Italian idiom and at the same time you will be given tools and suggestions on how to familiarize and start understanding contemporary Italian culture and its political landscape.

Theories of international relations are a must to understand global politics. However, given the multitude of theories and authors, studying them can be a bit overwhelming. I offer this class for poli sci students who are struggling with the theories and how to apply them, but also to anyone curious to learn more about the world we live in today. If needed, we can also talk about political philosophy, which, in a way, forms the basis of the theories we know today.
I can teach this class in French or English.

Gesichte und Politik sind nicht nur für die Schule wichtig, sie erweitern auch den eigenen Horizont. Kinder lernen durch das Fach Politik welche Probleme es auf der Welt gibt und wie man sie lösen kann und wie wertvoll unsere Demokratie ist. In Geschichte lernt man wie wir zu unseren heutigen Gesellschaft gekommen sind, was wir in der Vergangenheit gut gemacht haben und auch welche Geschehnisse sich niemals wiederholen dürfen.

Speaking about films provides an almost endless possibilities for conversation. This class will usually be well-versed in many country's films, customs, foods!We will focus on what students like best/least about friends. The exercise allow you to practice a number of areas: opinions, comparatives and superlatives, descriptive adjectives, and reported speech. Also, storytelling lessons, how to share a story, tell a narrative!

For pupils who are still at school, I make an overview of the progress, so that the parents and specialist teachers remain informed about the work that has been done.

A Marseille-based graduate of International Security from Sciences Po Paris (2022) with living experience across Europe (Germany, France, Spain), the Middle East (Egypt, Lebanon), and the United States, I offer private tutoring in German and English or training in Political Science/International Relations.

From beginners (A1) to advanced users (C2), I boast experience in working with all age groups from primary school students to adults aiming to take the next step in their language proficiency.

My teaching methods are exclusively contingent on the student's needs/requirements, accounting for previous knowledge, the student's preferences, and feasibility of the project. As such, the first lesson seeks to provide me with an idea of the student's level while also ensuring that the synergy between teacher and pupil makes for a fruitful partnership.

With regards to training in Political Science/International Relations, I intend to draw on the knowledge and insights that I was able to acquire over 5 years of study in the respective fields at prestigious universities (Leiden University, Sciences Po Paris). Here, I am also able to tailor classes to the student's expectations.

The way things are, are because of how they were. History offers the greatest data set for us to make hypotheses on how we should organize our society and the means we use to maintain and grow it. In this class, we will choose the time periods and locations you are interested in (or have to study for), and do a deep dive on the How's and Why's of those historical events. Using multimedia approaches, such as drawing exercises, maps, historical documents, and more this course will help you:
1. Remember and commit to memory historical events and details
2. Understand the ideas and inventions that transformed the way we interact
3. Write better essays by better structuring and analyzing your ideas
4. Get acquainted with basic to intermediate Economic theories
5. Confidently present your ideas
6. Connect far off historical events to your local culture

Hello! I am a private tutor (in-person and online) in philosophy, history, social sciences, and political science. I have been teaching since 2014 and I support a variety of audiences (secondary, higher education, researchers). My teaching method is active: flipped classroom, Socratic debate, project-based learning, criterion-referenced assessments (rubrics), and rapid feedback. I help students formulate a solid problem, structure a plan, argue rigorously, and cite their sources correctly.

I work with digital tools (Moodle, Teams/Zoom, Zotero, NVivo/ATLAS.ti, SPSS/R) and I provide clear support: learning objectives, timetable, assessment criteria. The sessions alternate between summary contributions, guided exercises and discussion sessions. I value curiosity, intellectual discipline and academic honesty (zero ghostwriting, methodological support only).

Areas of expertise: ethics and political theory, history of ideas, discourse analysis, methodology (qualitative/quantitative). Languages: fluent French and English; German read/spoken, Portuguese read; Latin/Ancient Greek (reading). I am caring but demanding: I set explicit expectations, encourage autonomy, and remain available between sessions for targeted questions. If you are looking for structured mentoring, based on clarity, method, and the joy of learning, I will be happy to support you.
