About Me
I am a humble seeker of the truth and I love to be able to help others in the same search. I believe it does not have to be a cohercion to learn, but only following the path your own nature suggests. If you do not feel the wish to learn within you, what may even the perfect teacher do? And if you instead wish so, how can a poor teacher convince you to let it go? Therefore I, who am neither perfect nor the worst, only think my purpose is to let you realize what you want for yourself.Education

Philosophy 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.

Ideal for high school students, university applicants, or anyone interested in deepening their understanding of both philosophy and film.
