Courses in Philosophy, Ethics and Critical Thinking

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
Philosophy is much more than a simple method; it's a more general way of positioning ourselves, even a way of life. At its core, it's critical thinking and the ability to see beyond what's left unsaid and unclear, and to find information, question, and arrive at a more nuanced vision of the world.

Together we will begin with everyday facts to explore the foundations of philosophy, look for clues in the history of thought and learn to be independent in our critical thinking.

I also support the questioning of major texts and problems posed in literature courses, philosophy courses in middle school, and preparation for the Swiss maturity, see prep for university studies.

NB: Particular interest in feminism to better understand current societal issues is welcome. I reserve the right to refuse any indecent or misogynistic contact.

About Me

Bettina est philosophe indépendante et autrice, spécialisée dans l’exploration des dynamiques contemporaines de la pensée et de leur ancrage historique, ainsi que l'éthique appliqué. Forte de plus de vingt ans d’expérience en recherche académique, en édition et en écriture, elle interroge les mutations du savoir, les formes de rationalité et l’évolution des cadres symboliques qui structurent notre rapport au monde. Son travail s’inscrit dans une approche critique et transdisciplinaire, intégrant notamment la philosophie continentale, la pensée jungienne et l’histoire des idées. À travers ses écrits, elle examine des thématiques telles que l’externalisation du discours et du sens, la dissolution des espaces de réflexion intérieure et la manière dont ces phénomènes façonnent nos sociétés et subjectivités.

Education

Bachelor's degree in Philosophy & French from the University of Basel, post-graduate studies with various diplomas from the Universities of Fribourg, Geneva, Oxford and Paris-Sorbonne with a focus on the history of ideas and medieval philosophy.

Experience / Qualifications

Academic research, various SNF doctoral projects, freelance work in a corporate ethics think-tank, work on professional ethics at the University of Zurich in Evolutionary Medicine.

Tailor-made courses on Chinese culture, eg. history, philosophy, society, economy, popculture,...
This private class offers an exploration into rich and complex tapestry that is Chinese culture. Based on your interest, you'll learn more about Chinese history, philosophy, traditional and modern Chinese society, literature, religion, etc. With China's importance on the international stage growing incessantly, I believe it's very useful to understand the Chinese way of thinking, to develop awareness of cultural sensitivities and to gain some insight in the history that structures China's perspective on the world. Originally structured as a lecture-based course, the content can also be restructured into a more interactive learning design. Whether you're interested in ancient classical philosophy, dynastic history, modern Chinese society and popculture or the economic development of China, this course has something to offer.

US & European History for Middle & High School Students
History is one of the most important subjects for any student to understand. In addition to being part of a student's core curriculum, an understanding of history is essential for viewing the world in an informed manner. Through this course, we will learn about US & European History at the middle and high school levels. Rather than exploring history through dates and memorization, we will view history through the lenses of causation, continuity and change over time, and comparison.

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!
