About Me

I hold a Ph.D. in Philosophy, Anthropology, Theology, Native American and Religious Studies. Additionally, I successfully completed all program requirements for earning the Oxford Advanced 220-Hour TESOL/TESL/TEFL Certificate with specializations in Teaching English Grammar, Teaching Business English, Teaching IELTS and TOEFL Preparation, and Teaching English to Young Learners.

Currently, I am the Subject Matter Expert and Lead Instructor for Cultural Anthropology classes in the College of Professional Studies, University of New England Maine. I recently served five months as a Peace Corps Virtual Service Pilot Volunteer assisting the Philippines Science High School with their STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Math) Curriculum Revision Project.

I love tutoring because I enjoy the one-on-one interaction I experience in assisting others achieve their own specific learning goals. Every student is unique and presents a different set of needs, expectations, abilities and ethnographic background. I have found tutoring and teaching to be immensely intrinsically rewarding because my students always appreciate the professional and empathetic assistance I am able to provide to them.

I have experience teaching domestically in the United States, and internationally in Nicaragua, Ecuador and Colombia. I was proud to serve nearly three years as a Peace Corps Volunteer teaching English and nutrition classes, along with developing the UNESCO TiNi Program in Cuenca, Ecuador.

It is true that the philosopher is the friend of wisdom, but above all, he is someone who does not want to make mistakes in reasoning. Philosophizing is a way of reasoning and a way of solving problems that will never have a perfect and definitive solution. Knowing the distance between the Earth and the Moon is not a problem of philosophy, because it is enough to measure to solve it. On the other hand, knowing, for example, what justice is, is a problem of philosophy. A meter will not be able to help us know the answer. We must go about it differently, and in the courses I offer, I will teach you how.

You will learn

- text reading strategies
- case studies with the aim of learning from experts
- methodology in philosophy
- writing an essay
- writing a text commentary
- a work on the philosophers of your choice
- an overview of the history of philosophy
- the general culture necessary to be able to philosophize

I will adapt to your individual needs. Each course is tailor-made. We will analyze where your difficulties lie and together develop a course program that will make you perform as quickly as possible. The basic principle of the courses I offer is dialectics, like Plato's dialogues: reflecting together, making theoretical contributions, asking questions and seeking answers, and testing the validity of reasoning.

For the past 10 years, I have been teaching German using the philosophy methodology, having studied philosophy at the Master's level at Aix-Marseille University. It turns out that the analytical mind is very useful even outside the confines of philosophy. Today, there are even fields of activity such as management with philosophy or philotherapy. In recent years, some German students have asked me to also teach them philosophy courses, and that is why I decided to offer philosophy courses directly.

I look forward to meeting you during a first lesson.

I am convinced that one of the most effective ways to learn a language is to start speaking it; hence, we will definitely have an "English only" policy in our classes. Don’t worry though! I will make sure that you are comfortable and always heard. We’ll focus heavily on speaking so you can freely talk about your everyday life, communicate with strangers while traveling, and even spill the tea with me without overthinking your grammar.

There are no specific textbooks, but separate lessons on different topics that include grammar, vocabulary, rules, and also movies, songs, TV series, and games, so you can grasp the language in various ways.

Working on your mistakes, focusing specifically on the topics that matter to you, boosting your conversational skills, or preparing for exams are all considered and integrated into the lessons. I am looking forward to having you in my classes!

So, shall we start? :)

I tailor one-on-one tutoring classes for LLB students, focusing on core modules such as Contract Law, Tort Law, Criminal Law, Property Law, Family law, dissertation and Equity & Trusts. My approach simplifies complex legal theories into manageable concepts, breaking down statutes and case law. Sessions focus on improving legal research, developing academic writing skills, and fostering the critical analytical skills needed to achieve first-class results in assessments.

Also i use past law papers and mock exams, to help students develop structured revision techniques and improve their application of law to problem-solving exercises. This includes training for timed conditions, identifying legal issues within scenarios, and mastering the IRAC (Issue, Rule, Application, Conclusion) structure.

Discover the magic of the original Tarot of Marseille through a traditional, spiritual and playful approach! A teaching faithful to its Neoplatonic, Hermetic and Christian roots.

Although the Tarot of Marseille appeared in Italy at the end of the 15th century, it is now practiced and interpreted according to the late tradition of 19th-century occultists, which opposes the original philosophy of its creators, cutting the tarot off from its roots.

I propose that you go back in time and immerse yourself in the practice of tarot from the early centuries through teaching that is both theoretical and practical.

With me, you don't just learn to interpret cards according to the original Western tradition, you experience the spiritual power of each card so that the tarot becomes a true compass for your soul, in the manner of our ancestors.

If the Tarot of Marseille seems obscure to newcomers, it's because we are often unfamiliar with the Neoplatonic, Hermetic, Christian, and Kabbalistic myths and symbols hidden behind each card. To benefit from a quality learning experience, it's not necessary to memorize endless lists of definitions; simply understanding the story, myth, or philosophical/theological concept associated with each card is enough to grasp its full essence and complexity.

My courses are structured around two main axes:

I) INTERPRETATION: MYTHS, CONTEXTS AND SYMBOLS

To grasp the true essence of the Tarot of Marseille, it is essential to understand it not with our modern perspective but with the eyes of a 15th-century European.
Therefore, the student will begin by familiarizing themselves with the cultural, philosophical and religious context specific to 15th century Italy, then they will discover the myths, stories, symbols and teachings specific to each major arcana.

II) SPIRITUAL EXPERIMENTATION

The Tarot of Marseille was initially conceived as a teaching aid but also as a tool allowing the soul to experience the Divine by illuminating the path that leads to the source of Life. To fully grasp the Tarot of Marseille, it is necessary to experience the spiritual power of each card through meditation exercises, prayers, and mystical experiences.

After each lesson, you receive a PDF summary so you can then put it into practice without forgetting anything!
