Philosophy and Film - Appreciation and Essay TutoringPhilosophy and Film – Appreciation and Essay Tutoring is an interdisciplinary course designed for learners who are curious about the deeper meanings behind cinema. Through selected films—ranging from classics to experimental works—we will explore philosophical themes such as identity, freedom, morality, memory, and the absurd. Each session blends film appreciation with critical thinking, guiding students to see how cinema can express, challenge, and reshape philosophical questions in ways that are emotionally and intellectually powerful.
In addition to discussion-based learning, the course provides one-on-one or small group essay tutoring to support students in articulating their thoughts through writing. Whether you aim to develop academic essays, creative reflections, or structured reviews, this course helps you build the analytical and rhetorical skills needed to engage with film as a form of philosophical expression. Ideal for high school students, university applicants, or anyone interested in deepening their understanding of both philosophy and film.

English classes and reinforcement of any subject from primary to high schoolI am currently a third-year student pursuing a double degree in Philosophy and Social Studies at the University of Madrid (UCM). I have one year of experience teaching private tutoring and English classes. I offer classes in any subject from elementary to high school. However, I specialize in English and humanities and social sciences, which constitute my current field of study.
My one-year stay in Dublin allows me to introduce my students to the English language more deeply, thereby instilling my passion for teaching and learning it. I also learned firsthand the study and examination methods at Cambridge, an institution from which I hold a C1, although my ongoing language training means I currently have a C2 level.
In my classes, I try to tailor the content to the students' unique characteristics and interests to achieve the desired results as effectively as possible, while also improving their relationship with their studies and passion for knowledge.

Tailor-made courses on Chinese culture, eg. history, philosophy, society, economy, popculture,...This private class offers an exploration into rich and complex tapestry that is Chinese culture. Based on your interest, you'll learn more about Chinese history, philosophy, traditional and modern Chinese society, literature, religion, etc.
With China's importance on the international stage growing incessantly, I believe it's very useful to understand the Chinese way of thinking, to develop awareness of cultural sensitivities and to gain some insight in the history that structures China's perspective on the world.
Originally structured as a lecture-based course, the content can also be restructured into a more interactive learning design. Whether you're interested in ancient classical philosophy, dynastic history, modern Chinese society and popculture or the economic development of China, this course has something to offer.

Distance learning philosophy course - taught by an independent philosopher with a Master's degree in philosophical research.I'm currently working on my thesis. I took a literary preparatory class with an average of 16.5 in philosophy. I'm currently an "independent philosopher." I'm very interested in aesthetics, phenomenology, and the humanities and their approaches to urbanity! My favorite theme is the notion of dwelling.
My approach will consist, mainly, of learning methods so that you are more efficient in your work - time is precious!
As for knowledge, I will adapt it according to your needs/requests.
I look forward to talking about it more fully and – why not – practicing it!

Political Belief Systems: An Introduction to IdeologyEveryone who engages with politics (which is to say, everyone) has an ideology. But not everyone is conscious of- let alone consistent in their ideology. In fact, most people’s conscious politics are nothing more than an inconsistent aesthetic. But anyone who has a world they long to see owes it to themselves to at least be self aware of their own ideology, and they should probably also familiarize themselves with others as well. I can help on both fronts.
This 10-session class serves as an introduction to the concept of political ideology. We will begin with a brief overview to various major academic theories of ideology, before moving on to a taxonomical survey of different ideological genuses and families, both “thick-centered” ideologies, that is, ideologies with a comprehensive core specific enough that they can stand on their own as it were, such as liberalism, conservatism, socialism, and fascism, and “thin centered” ideologies, which have much broader and hence much less specific cores, and hence must attach themselves to other thick centered host ideologies in order to fully manifest themselves, such as populism, nationalism, feminism, and ecologism.

Philosophical and/or Sociological Theory: Tailored Lessons and Guided StudyThis class offers personalized instruction in philosophical and/or sociological theory, suited both for students seeking academic support and for individuals with a general interest in a philosophical topic.
Sessions are designed according to the student’s goals, whether it’s clarifying course material, preparing written assignments, or exploring theoretical texts independently.
I am currently completing a Master of Arts in Philosophy. My areas of specialization include ancient philosophy, early modern philosophy, and phenomenology. I also hold a background in sociology, which allows me to offer interdisciplinary approaches to social theory and critical thought.
Sessions can be focused on specific authors or movements (e.g. Plato, Spinoza, feminist theory), or organized thematically around concepts such as love, beauty, perception, or subjectivity. The goal is to foster rigorous but accessible understanding, with attention to both conceptual clarity and historical context.
