Àpd 254.68 CNY /h

Prehistoric Archaeology of the British Isles

Delve into the past with local Dr Amber as she introduces you to the prehistory of the British Isles. The course is aimed at anyone who is interested in the archaeology of Britain. It will cover 500,000 years of prehistory from the Palaeolithic to the Iron age, providing you with a grounding in British prehistoric archaeology and the changing ways of life over this vast period.

Lesson 1
The course outline will follow the chronology of prehistory, starting with the Palaeolithic (Old Stone Age) (500,000-10,000 BC). This week will introduce the different hominin species, such as Homo erectus, Neanderthals and Homo sapiens and their use of fire, tools and rock art.

Lesson 2
This week will discuss the changes we see in Britain in the Mesolithic (Middle Stone Age) (10,000-4,000 BC), including the use of microlithic (small) flint tools, the hunter-gatherer lifestyle and rock art. The much-debated change from the Mesolithic to the Neolithic period will also be introduced.

Lesson 3

Week three will discuss the Neolithic (New Stone Age) proper (4,000-2300 BC). This period is seen as the single most important economic transition in British History due to the beginning of farming, large scale trade networks and new ways of burying the dead.

Lesson 4
We will look at the technological changes in the Bronze Age (2300-800 BC) when copper, bronze and gold objects and weapons were first produced. Themes such as violence, the burial of the dead and the deposition of metal hoards will be discussed.

Lesson 5
The final week of the course will discuss the last period of British Prehistory, the Iron Age (800BC-43AD). The Celtic affiliation we often link with this period will be discussed along with the development of iron technology and the use of domestic areas for ritual. The shift into the Roman period will also be introduced to provide a full rounded introduction to British Prehistory.

Présentation

I am passionate about teaching and engaging others in my interests and specialisms. My experience teaching primary, secondary, university students and adults has reinforced this. I want to help others reach their full potential.

Having recently finished my PhD in Archaeology, I am very aware of university expectations for students and I wish to use this with my teaching experience and geography, history and archaeology knowledge to help others through their studies.

My teaching method is centred around understanding and focus so that my students are able to reflect and engage with their learning. I engage my students with frequent questions and discussions to reveal their understanding of the topic and shape my lesson around their progress.

I also believe that it is important to use mixed media when teaching and break up the lessons by changing the teaching techniques.
For instance, a lesson may begin with an introductory statement and discussion with the pupil about the topic, this would be followed by a PowerPoint presentation. To renew the student's focus and concentration an activity, such as a quiz or game, will follow. After which, the lesson can continue with greater focus.

In my third year of the history faculty at the Jean Moulin Lyon III University, I plan to enroll in a master's degree in medieval history. I want to write a research paper on the French and the Mongols in the 13th century. I would like to go on to write a thesis on the theme of Mongol incursions into Japan (1274 and 1281).
The sessions will aim to deepen or discover concepts about a period. I am comfortable with the era: medieval (especially from the 12th-13th century), modern (it all depends on the region and the century) as well as prehistory.
I am able to establish a progression curve, as well as adapt the lessons according to the need or simply in relation to the expectations of the student. If necessary, repetitions and accentuations on knowledge can take place.
Since I am not yet at the apotheosis of my studies, I will only offer these services to beginners or students (up to high school or first year of history school at the "maximum").
I can also offer help for tests related to the history dissertation or text commentaries, very famous and predominant exercises in studies in the history faculty.

Western Armenian is a language that has been put in the endangered language's list, and I personally believe that such a rich language should never die. I believe that I am taking a huge initiative to be one of the individuals who'll try to save this important language from disappearing.
I try to make my lessons as interacting as possible. The lessons and exercises will be provided through PowerPoint presentations. I try to listen to my student in order to prepare the lesson plan together, according to his needs and preferences.
I've always been the smiling and friendly tutor who makes the student comfortable during the lessons. I believe that in order to reach the students you need to understand them also emotionally and psychologically.

Hello, my name is Audrey!
I am a teacher, expatriate in Southeast Asia, I give online and face-to-face courses in Bangkok.

Over the past five years, I have had the opportunity to help numerous students in France and abroad, with attention deficit disorder, dyslexia, dysorthography, or simply those seeking self-confidence.

My studies led me to work on many and very diverse subjects but above all to learn and quickly master many concepts and knowledge!
To achieve my goals, I had to develop tricks and use methods, starting with preparing for the BACCALAUREAT. I therefore know how discouraging, frustrating and even impossible it can sometimes seem.
Also, I propose to support you to help you prepare for and succeed in your baccalaureate in the best conditions! (stress management, oral expression for Grand Oral and language orals, methodology for responding to subjects even when the knowledge is not all known or mastered, etc.).

Do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions. I will be happy to talk with you about your expectations, your objectives and my working method.

As a geography student at ENS Lyon, I offer individualized teaching and help in preparing for quizzes or exams.

My goal is to help the student progress without overloading them. I may assign homework after lessons, but this is only occasional.

The main objective of my courses is to instill (or rekindle) in students a love of history and geography. To achieve this, I use a variety of resources and do not limit myself to traditional lectures.
