In these tutorials, I will teach you how to read and understand a philosophical text, how to solve a philosophical problem, how to answer an exam question, how to structure an essay, how to write clear and persuasive texts.

About me:
I am an emeritus university professor who still enjoys teaching. I have taught philosophy at top British universities for decades. Many of my former students have done very well in their subsequent careers, whether in academia or beyond.

I obtained my doctorate at the University of Oxford in the philosophy of logic and language, and have published many books and articles in various areas of philosophy. Among my favourite philosophers are Aristotle, Aquinas, Descartes, Kant, Wittgenstein and Heidegger. But I enjoy reading others as well!

Descartes is widely regarded as the founder of modern philosophy and one of the greatest thinkers of all time. But it is not easy for us today to understand his texts, written nearly 400 years ago.

In these tutorials you will learn
- to read and understand his most famous book "Meditations on First Philosophy",
- come to appreciate the originality and importance of his ideas,
- and, most especially, how to become a critical thinker and philosophize on your own.

Length: six tutorials (each two hours long) or twelve tutorials (each one hour long).

Note: The first tutorial will take place online. After that, the tutorials can also take place at my home in Brussels.

Learn to think with the great philosophers of the past!

In these tutorials you will learn
- about the ideas of some of the most famous and influential philosophers of the modern age,
- how to read and understand original philosophical texts,
- most importantly, how to become a critical thinker and philosophise on your own.

In ten tutorials (each two hours long), we will follow the development of modern philosophy from the 17th century to the present. We will start with Descartes, look at Spinoza, Locke, Hume, Kant, Hegel, Schopenhauer and Nietzsche, and end with Wittgenstein and Heidegger. We will cover topics in the philosophy of mind and language, in epistemology, metaphysics and ethics. We will discuss questions such as "Is the mind distinct from matter?", "Can I know anything?", "Can we distinguish between good and evil?", "Does God exist?" etc.
