Àpd 35 $ /h

In my classes, I employ a dynamic and engaging teaching approach that combines traditional lectures, thought-provoking exercises, and challenging logical puzzles. I firmly believe that philosophy is not an isolated discipline but rather a vital link between various other sciences and real-world problems. As such, my teaching philosophy revolves around exploring the intricate interplay between philosophy and other scientific disciplines, bridging the gap between theory and practical applications.

Vous êtes lycéen ?
Mon enseignement repose sur une méthode claire et efficace, conçue pour être appliquée le jour de l’examen. En suivant chaque étape, vous pourrez comprendre précisément la problématique du sujet (et donc éviter le hors-sujet), ainsi que les questions qui en découlent (ces questions vous guideront pour construire votre plan). Et pour répondre en détail à ces questions, nous réviserons les notions au programme, en les réduisant à l'essentiel.

Vous êtes étudiant ?
Dans de nombreux parcours (sociologie, littérature, art, psychologie, etc.), vous serez amené à travailler à partir de textes philosophiques. Je vous accompagnerai pour les décrypter et les relier à votre cursus, afin d’enrichir votre réflexion et vos analyses.

A très bientôt,

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.

Are you struggling with philosophy, or do you want to learn the subject or deepen your knowledge? I adapt to each student's needs to help them progress and succeed in philosophy. To achieve this, I help students acquire the necessary methods, understand unclear course content, and train them in text commentary and essay writing exercises. The goal is to cultivate an interest in philosophy while equipping them with the keys to exam success.
The first step is to meet the student and determine together the difficulties and expectations of the lessons.
Master's degree and teaching qualification in philosophy. 5 years of teaching experience and currently preparing a thesis in environmental philosophy. Bilingual French-English.

Enseignant de Philosophie depuis 25 ans, j'ai notamment enseigné en lycée et en C.P.G.E. en France, en Chine, au Maroc, et au Qatar.
Je poursuis par ailleurs un travail de recherche en Philosophie autour de la question de l'esclavage.
Souvent les élèves échouent en Philosophie car ils ne comprennent pas de quoi il s'agit : comprendre l'état d'esprit philosophique, c'est provoquer le déclic qui vous fera réussir. Ensuite, un peu d'entrainement, et c'est gagné !
