About Me

When it comes to tutoring, I believe that it is critical that the sessions go beyond simply a transaction of information from the tutor to the student. The development of critical thinking, ability to analyze a text and place it in a particular context, effective writing as well as continuous engagement with the respective study material are all fundamental elements that every high school student should have in his or her toolkit. As a result, my approach does not only exclusively focus on a mere surface-level understanding of the material but also developing the necessary skills to successfully use the knowledge gained.

In addition, I also attempt to make the tutoring sessions as intellectually stimulating as possible and interesting for the student. Tutoring is often conceptualized as simply a means to improve in a particular subject that the student is weak at. While that is the primary purpose, I have found out that in my one year experience of tutoring, there is a lot more to be gained from. For me being a tutor means instilling a passion for students for learning and encourage them to harvest a willingness to overcome challenges.

As someone who has been through multiple educational systems, the need for good tutors is extremely high because they can make that difference between success and failure in school, and I consider myself someone who wants to make that difference.

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.

English is the quintessential global language, used almost everywhere and in everyday life. It's becoming increasingly mainstream, especially among children, thanks to memes like 6-7. English-language videos go much more viral on TikTok and Instagram, naturally raising the question of whether speaking the language is advantageous. Many claim to be able to speak English simply by watching short videos, but ultimately, a deeper understanding is crucial. I studied English from third to tenth grade at a grammar school and consistently earned top marks. I've always been passionate about languages, having grown up bilingual at home, speaking Vietnamese and German, and learning three additional foreign languages at school: English, French, and Spanish. I would be thrilled if you'd give my English course a try ;)

I am an American living in Switzerland. English is my first language, as well as having been one of my primary studies during my time in college. I excel in English at all levels; however, my primary focus is to help people through the beginner and intermediate stages. As someone who learned English as their first language, I find the textbook way of teaching English to be a little rigid; my goal is to help you learn English in the most natural way possible.
