Distance learning philosophy course - taught by an independent philosopher with a Master's degree in philosophical research.
I'm currently working on my thesis. I took a literary preparatory class with an average of 16.5 in philosophy. I'm currently an "independent philosopher." I'm very interested in aesthetics, phenomenology, and the humanities and their approaches to urbanity! My favorite theme is the notion of dwelling. My approach will consist, mainly, of learning methods so that you are more efficient in your work - time is precious! As for knowledge, I will adapt it according to your needs/requests. I look forward to talking about it more fully and – why not – practicing it!

Political Belief Systems: An Introduction to Ideology
Everyone who engages with politics (which is to say, everyone) has an ideology. But not everyone is conscious of- let alone consistent in their ideology. In fact, most people’s conscious politics are nothing more than an inconsistent aesthetic. But anyone who has a world they long to see owes it to themselves to at least be self aware of their own ideology, and they should probably also familiarize themselves with others as well. I can help on both fronts. This 10-session class serves as an introduction to the concept of political ideology. We will begin with a brief overview to various major academic theories of ideology, before moving on to a taxonomical survey of different ideological genuses and families, both “thick-centered” ideologies, that is, ideologies with a comprehensive core specific enough that they can stand on their own as it were, such as liberalism, conservatism, socialism, and fascism, and “thin centered” ideologies, which have much broader and hence much less specific cores, and hence must attach themselves to other thick centered host ideologies in order to fully manifest themselves, such as populism, nationalism, feminism, and ecologism.

Philosophical and/or Sociological Theory: Tailored Lessons and Guided Study
This class offers personalized instruction in philosophical and/or sociological theory, suited both for students seeking academic support and for individuals with a general interest in a philosophical topic. Sessions are designed according to the student’s goals, whether it’s clarifying course material, preparing written assignments, or exploring theoretical texts independently. I am currently completing a Master of Arts in Philosophy. My areas of specialization include ancient philosophy, early modern philosophy, and phenomenology. I also hold a background in sociology, which allows me to offer interdisciplinary approaches to social theory and critical thought. Sessions can be focused on specific authors or movements (e.g. Plato, Spinoza, feminist theory), or organized thematically around concepts such as love, beauty, perception, or subjectivity. The goal is to foster rigorous but accessible understanding, with attention to both conceptual clarity and historical context.

How to be Happy: The Science and Philosophy of Happiness
Are you happy? Hey, my name's Dan, and I want to offer you a course all about exploring what happiness is and how you can achieve it. To do this, we'll be integrating modern scientific research and evidence with millennia of ancient philosophies, belief systems, and cultural insights. By doing this, you get all the wisdom you need and it's all backed by science! This course will give you a new worldview on life to make you happier, wiser, and more self-aware. To do this, we don't just look at happiness- we look at human nature itself, evolution, the human brain, the body, morality, religion, emotions, meaning, self-actualisation, self-transcendence, and much more. All of these topics are explored from scientific and philosophical perspectives, drawing on what the experts and evidence in all these fields are saying. And none of this is abstract: this whole course is all about giving practical advice to help you become the best version of yourself. But unlike other courses on happiness, all that advice is backed by real, trustworthy scientific research: so we know that it all works. This course is for absolutely everyone. Whether you stopped science before GCSEs or chose it as your career, this course has a colossal amount of information that I've integrated from lots of different fields, and can present to you in an easy and friendly way. For more information on the course's structure and what we'll be doing together, just drop me a message. Take care!
