Philosophy Classes for Curious Minds - Everyone Welcome!

From 38.91 € /h

Whether you are studying Philosophy and need assistance in capturing complicated philosophical problems or support in preparation for the exams (GCSE, A Levels, University level) or are simply interested in that exciting branch of knowledge, I am here to help!

My name is Anna, and I am a qualified teacher (DET L5 diploma) with over ten years of professional experience in private tutoring (online and face-to-face) as well as classroom experience (RS & Philosophy) in the UK. Moreover, I hold degrees in Polish Philology and Philosophy. But what is most important is that I am passionate about teaching Philosophy to curious minds!

Philosophy - 'the love of wisdom' - is a valuable tool for navigating the meanders of our everyday life. During our sessions, we will draw on the wisdom of the Ancients, learn the history of philosophical thought, and present the profiles of the most exciting philosophers, but above all, practice the disappearing art of dialogue.

Moreover, logical, analytical and critical thinking skills - learning to think wisely - are useful in every other area of life. So, I invite you to this exciting journey through the centuries, continents and currents of thought to find out about the 'big questions' of Philosophy, World Religions and contemporary Ethics.

If you have any additional questions, please feel free to message me. I am happy to tailor the session if you are interested in very concrete aspects of Philosophy, for instance, the notion of Freedom, Responsibility, or Friendship.

About Me

Most importantly, I am always open to my students' suggestions, and the main thing at first is assessing their level and learning goals.

Then, I am adapting the methods and resources accordingly. My personal aim is for my students to enjoy our sessions and learn at their own pace. Usually, I would focus on communication, which means learning through speaking (even if you are a beginner!). However, I will use multiple additional resources to support our learning - videos, pictures, presentations, charts, and shared files with vocabulary and grammar.

In terms of Philosophy, I have a similar approach. Firstly, using my experience and expertise, I provide students with solid theoretical knowledge on the subject. Then, we will gradually develop a deeper understanding of the philosophical problem through methods like Socratic questioning to promote my learners' independent thinking.

I believe I can motivate my students and support their effective learning while remaining an understanding and entertaining teacher!

2. Principles of the Islamic Religion: We will then explore the fundamental principles of Islam, including faith (Iman), practice (Ibadah), and the Islamic way of life (Sharia). We will also discuss the moral and ethical values of Islam.

3. Discussion and Reflection: Each lesson will be followed by a discussion session where you can ask questions, share your thoughts, and deepen your understanding.

4. Interactive Learning: The course will include interactive activities, quizzes, and assignments to reinforce your learning.

This course is open to everyone, regardless of their level of knowledge of Islam. It provides a valuable opportunity to learn and understand the Quran and the Islamic religion in a respectful and open environment. We hope to see you soon in our course!

First class will be to assess the level you are at and where you need assistance. Then we can start tackling whatever questions and problems you have.

I am here to help, and to guide you through the questions, but you are here to learn, not to have someone do the work for you, so I won't give you the answers, I will help you find them.

This mathematics course is aimed at students in lower or upper secondary education who wish to strengthen their basic skills, fill in gaps or effectively prepare for an exam.

We will work together on understanding key concepts (arithmetic, geometry, algebra, functions, etc.) through clear explanations, progressive exercises and a method adapted to the pace of each student.

The goal is to restore confidence, develop logic and reasoning skills, and make mathematics more accessible and concrete.

This course is also suitable for students in scientific, technical or linguistic fields who need regular or occasional support.

It is true that the philosopher is the friend of wisdom, but above all, he is someone who does not want to make mistakes in reasoning. Philosophizing is a way of reasoning and a way of solving problems that will never have a perfect and definitive solution. Knowing the distance between the Earth and the Moon is not a problem of philosophy, because it is enough to measure to solve it. On the other hand, knowing, for example, what justice is, is a problem of philosophy. A meter will not be able to help us know the answer. We must go about it differently, and in the courses I offer, I will teach you how.

You will learn

- text reading strategies
- case studies with the aim of learning from experts
- methodology in philosophy
- writing an essay
- writing a text commentary
- a work on the philosophers of your choice
- an overview of the history of philosophy
- the general culture necessary to be able to philosophize

I will adapt to your individual needs. Each course is tailor-made. We will analyze where your difficulties lie and together develop a course program that will make you perform as quickly as possible. The basic principle of the courses I offer is dialectics, like Plato's dialogues: reflecting together, making theoretical contributions, asking questions and seeking answers, and testing the validity of reasoning.

For the past 10 years, I have been teaching German using the philosophy methodology, having studied philosophy at the Master's level at Aix-Marseille University. It turns out that the analytical mind is very useful even outside the confines of philosophy. Today, there are even fields of activity such as management with philosophy or philotherapy. In recent years, some German students have asked me to also teach them philosophy courses, and that is why I decided to offer philosophy courses directly.

I look forward to meeting you during a first lesson.

Italian is a rich and expressive language, and my lessons are designed to help students gain confidence and clarity in both speaking and writing. I offer personalised Italian lessons adapting each class to the student’s level and goals.

With academic training at the University of Oxford, I combine a clear and structured approach with practical exercises in grammar, vocabulary, conversation, and writing. Lessons can focus on everyday Italian, exam preparation, or the analysis of literary texts and essays.

Each lesson is engaging, goal-oriented, and tailored to the individual student.

I offer tutoring tailored to all levels, from primary school to post-secondary studies, as well as to adults. The courses are suitable for students needing occasional support as well as those experiencing more persistent difficulties, including students with special needs.

Each lesson begins with an analysis of the student's needs and objectives. The work focuses on understanding the material, reviewing fundamental concepts if necessary, practicing through targeted exercises, and developing effective study methods. I pay particular attention to adapting the pace and explanations to each student's individual learning style.

Drawing on my experience in schools, private tutoring, and specialized settings, I prioritize a supportive, structured, and challenging approach aimed at strengthening students' understanding, independence, and confidence. Lessons can be conducted in person or online, depending on individual needs.

I have 10 years of teaching experience and am fully familiar with all educational levels. I have various communication methods with students and the appropriate content for each level. I provide preparatory notes, phonics and grammar materials, and encourage students during interactive lessons using a deep and easy-to-understand conversational style, thanks to God.

In primary and secondary school, I had many friends who struggled with specific subjects, which I didn't. It also happened the other way around. It was great to be able to help each other with this. When that wasn't possible, we received tutoring from a great coach, and this helped us all pass our exams.

School can be frustrating, overwhelming, and overwhelming. Having the right person to help you through this and provide guidance can reduce a lot of stress. Besides tutoring, I'm also a Psychology student and could help with planning, fear of failure, ADD/ADHD, etc.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us!

Symbolic writing
philosophy
Simplified explanations
Literary texts
Novels, poetry, and prose. Example: (1) Can we live in peace?

I am almost certain from the beginning that this question is incorrect, and on the other hand, I add with conviction that the wording of this question is wrong, since the complexity that surrounds this title, or rather the motives that lie behind the curtain, makes it difficult to fathom its depths easily.

At first glance, this article (inquiry or question) seems naive, like a question born of a little girl's innocence to her mother, like a spiritual breath that should be distributed fairly without being touched. But in reality, it is a mischievous question surrounded by many barriers, which are made by man himself. Therefore, it can be said that it seeks solutions to problems caused by the ignorance of superstitions, fanaticism, deviation, extremism, straying from the truth, evils, slipping into the abyss of religions, and so on. As for the penultimate point, it is a copy of the action and theorizing of the first suspect, as is the case since religion (its basic pillar) generally has a clear, sound, and logical goal, and its branches, most of which lie in organizing social life and contributing to its improvement, from the mothers of morality and settling disputes, inheritance, marriage, love, and enjoining good... some of which have been brought and others left for what has been revealed to us in a clear indication to us to complete the path in the best way. And here is the crux of the matter: this (thing) that is given that is likely to make peace or against it? To create conditions and means for making peace or breaking it? To decide on it or to deviate from it? So what is the matter of this peace that everyone loves morally and practically in spreading without end or limit and is not enabled! If we consider peace as a constitution with conditions, its articles and principles are the abstract moral terms by which a person acts in word and deed, in character and morals and even inwardly (intention) as it is a purity in the soul that does not need evidence seen in public or benefited from by a certain person or certain people to the exclusion of others in an indication of “selfishness” that undermines the principles of peace and affects its integrity, as we can look at the matter as the air for the lungs that has been corrupted and has crippled the work of the second.

Now, when one considers the aesthetic and fundamental aspects of peace, its point of intersection becomes clear: humanity. Ironically, the very means by which it undermines the right path is the same means by which it poses questions that supposedly underpin the ultimate goal of peace—such as, "Can we live without violence... without conflict... without animosity... without hatred... etc."—without addressing the necessary justice and reality.
