Political Theories mainly explore the theories around political structures that make up different societies. Introduction to Political Theories, as the name suggests provides students with explanations and insights into these seemingly overwhelming political theories, enabling one to understand their intricacies and evolution. These classes will prove to be of much use for someone who is just starting a bachelor's degree in political science. Also, students who are interested in International Relations might find these classes useful due to the context of the course being wholly international. The theories can get complicated quickly real soon and these classes will serve the purpose of getting the concepts cleared thoroughly. The classes will cover the following topics: Liberalism and its various forms Socialism and its variants Communism and its developments Feminism and its evolution Understanding the role of theories in historical and contemporary geopolitical conflicts The Liberalism and Communism debates Addressing the Glass Ceiling in Feminism The resources will be provided by me and shall be plenty. Being a scholar myself, there won't be any shortage of subject material to study and understand. Moreover, the classes can be modified to a reasonable extent in accordance with the student's syllabus or requirements. In a world where everyone's political opinions are getting quickly inflated and highlighted through social media, they can also affect mental health to some extent. Then, the only solution that remains is to understand the theories better. All of these billions of opinions are merely versions of the developments of a handful of these political theories. Owing to the nature of the classes they may also be useful for people who are curious about topics such as economics, political science, and history.

I am a passionate History, Sociology and Philosophy teacher (both ancient and modern). Fluent in Italian, Spanish and English I have taught History and Sociology in Madrid, Barcelona, North Italy and London. I can also teach Politics. Outside of the classroom, I have written and directed school plays, organized the school journals and the olympic games of philosophy. My students are of differing ages and stages of proficiency, so I have plenty of experience teaching at all levels. I consider myself a friendly and patient teacher, concerned above all else with the all round development of my students' capacity for comprehensive thought. I have a strong belief in the unification of knowledge and am always striving to incorporate seemingly disparate branches of learning into a broader horizon in order to provide my students with a sufficiently complete picture. Availability The length and frequency of sessions can be determined by the student's requirements and availability. The first lesson For any given first session I like to get to know the student, find out where they're at in their course of study, and see what their current working methods are like. Usually, talking about the current piece of homework, the next upcoming exam, or due assignment is a great way to gauge their requirements, assess where my help is most needed, and thus collaboratively devise a joint programme of work. My teaching method 
I bring a broad-based interdisciplinary knowledge to a range of subjects. This allows the opportunity to consider new ideas and to place different perspectives in conversation with each other, which is an instrumental skill for improving academic writing. A lesson with me will be interactive and lucid. I am adaptable as all students are different, so I will constantly monitor and remain attentive to our learning objectives.
 
My teaching methods vary, but as a rule I start with an in depth account of the subject, taking care to ground it contextually, and then proceed to a discussion of the main points. Whether the lessons take more of a dialogical form or the more typical lecture type format depends on the needs and preferences of the student. The lessons will be focused on studying techniques, written exercises with supervision and recalling techniques. We will work not just to close any gaps but also help the student in learning how to optimize private study. For students who need to get up to speed with content, I can offer sessions where I present you with ideas and new ways of understanding the topic. I approach each topic according to the immediate and long-range needs of the student, whether they require help in comprehending their topic, in preparing for exams, or in planning, executing, and proofing written work. Depending on the desire and temperament of the student, I can gear my lessons either towards cramming and exam survival or towards the nurturing of lifelong learning. My general policy is also to be flexible with what the student needs of me. For example, my payment is for the hour, however I am happy to look over work and send comments. My fee is not just one hour as I work with the student in all aspects of their learning via e-mails outside the lessons. Pushing forward If you're enthralled by your subject and wish to pursue it further, beyond the bounds of learning outcomes and assessment, then I can cultivate that passion in you. If you want to improve your critical or creative writing, I can help you articulate your vision and present it according to high standards; along the way I will instill good practices that will help you in any such task.

My passion for teaching has led me to study different languages and teach my mother tongue, French, for many years. Originally from Paris, I currently teach, and have done for several years, French as a foreign language in an American University (R1 - Top 25 US News ranking). I also carry out research work there on the philosophy of language which, combined with the various training courses followed in this prestigious establishment, has allowed me to acquire solid experience in teaching French (from A1 to C2, Cadre common European reference for languages). Today, I support students in their mastery of the language in an efficient manner and by adapting to the deadlines imposed on them in achieving their objectives. Thus, many of them who started learning French with me were admitted to prestigious French-speaking university programs (La Sorbonne, Sciences Po, Fulbright...). My teaching is focused on a 360 approach, taking into consideration the most recent studies on the acquisition of foreign languages and innovative teaching techniques. It is based on an immersive and multimedia method (podcasts, series, films, newspapers, etc.). My classes are done entirely in French and in a progressive manner, adapting to each person's rhythms. The main thing for me is to take into consideration the requests of my students, to listen to their needs and their desires. I pay particular attention to the specificities of learning necessary for each person; the emphasis may be placed on orality, visual aspect and/or grammar. In short, I design tailor-made courses to ensure that you achieve your objectives and discover the richness of French-speaking cultures! Philosophy course My training as a philosopher (La Sorbonne; Sciences Po), and my passion for this discipline have also allowed me to give philosophy courses for 10 years already. My teaching focuses on one of the aspects sometimes neglected when preparing for the baccalaureate or university exams: methodology. Methodological questions allow students to obtain the grades they desire. The transmission of my passion for this discipline, through the exploration of the interests of my students, makes my teaching come alive. Philosophy is everywhere: we will therefore base ourselves on your passions to nourish your dissertations and make your learning more fulfilling. Together we will explore the beauty of philosophy so that you can fully enjoy it!
