About Me

Hi! My name is Maju, and I’m a multilingual tutor from Brazil who speaks Portuguese, English, Spanish, and intermediate Swedish. I’m passionate about languages, communication, history, and helping students feel more confident while learning.

My teaching style is personalized, supportive, and interactive. I believe every student learns differently, so I adapt my lessons based on each student’s goals, interests, pace, and learning style. I enjoy working with students who want to improve naturally through conversation, practical exercises, real-life situations, and engaging discussions.

I teach English, Portuguese, and History, and my lessons can focus on conversation practice, grammar, pronunciation, travel communication, academic support, cultural topics, or professional English. I like creating a comfortable environment where students feel safe making mistakes, asking questions, and developing confidence step by step.

Because I also have experience working in international and remote environments, I bring practical communication and real-world language usage into my classes. I especially enjoy teaching teenagers and adults who are motivated to improve for travel, work, studies, or personal growth.

Western Armenian is a language that has been put in the endangered language's list, and I personally believe that such a rich language should never die. I believe that I am taking a huge initiative to be one of the individuals who'll try to save this important language from disappearing.
I try to make my lessons as interacting as possible. The lessons and exercises will be provided through PowerPoint presentations. I try to listen to my student in order to prepare the lesson plan together, according to his needs and preferences.
I've always been the smiling and friendly tutor who makes the student comfortable during the lessons. I believe that in order to reach the students you need to understand them also emotionally and psychologically.

Having a good grasp of your country's history (or the history of a country you are moving to) is important, and to be able to achieve that, you need to be able to understand it in a meaningful way. My goal is to help you do just that! Our lessons will be tailored to your needs and learning styles, and you will be tutored in an attentive and patient environment.

I will tutor and/or teach any era of US History from the founding of Jamestown in 1607 to the beginning of Obama's presidency in 2008 (which is roughly where most high school and middle school U.S. History textbooks end). If need be, I will stick with students throughout the entire year. Once I am told where we need to start, and I assess what lesson type would fit the student the best, I will begin with our lesson plans.

Classes and tutoring ARE offered year-around, 7 days a week (though availability in terms of time may vary). This is to give students the availability to access help and education throughout the year, anytime, on a schedule that suits their needs.

The authenticity of an exchange. In a society increasingly rooted in a competitive approach, where automated exchanges with Artificial Intelligence cannot replace the need for human interaction, this is precisely what we lack.
As a lawyer by training and an independent legal consultant, creating the Right to Knowledge is a breath of fresh air. This tutoring service is aimed directly at high school students who need to overcome any difficulties in studying the following subjects: French, Mathematics, Science, Philosophy, History, and Languages (English and Spanish).

Moreover, being currently preparing for the entrance exam to the National School of Magistrates and passionate about the beauty of multidisciplinary learning, the school program is being reviewed extremely regularly.

🎓 It is now necessary to elaborate somewhat on my experience:
4 years already dedicated to private lessons (which is significant) via the organization Complétude as well as independently (Law, French, Mathematics, Sciences, History and Languages), and this at all levels (primary, middle school, high school, university students and adults).

Regarding my teaching experience in legal subjects, I invite you to consult my other course offering dedicated to this subject and also published on Apprentus.

👋 What about my teaching approach, you might ask?
Beyond this desire for authenticity, it seems particularly crucial to dismantle the prejudices that poison the perception of students experiencing difficulties. To ensure the smooth running of this course and to help high school students feel as comfortable as possible, it is important to remember that the foundation of all conversation and understanding remains listening. Listening to one's equal, regardless of age.

💬 Wouldn't you be interested?
Please feel free to contact me by message and I remain available to discuss the frequency of classes and their modalities (in-person in Tours, videoconference and possibility of travel if necessary).

In the meantime, ladies and gentlemen of the high school system, it would be a real pleasure for me to support you as best I can on your path to success because, as its name suggests: you all have the Right to Knowledge! 😉

Drawing on my experience teaching in middle and high school, I offer support and private tutoring to those who need it. I provide online lessons for all levels, from middle school to high school. Need to review a lesson or methodology? I'm here to help. I have also participated in marking the national Brevet exams and served on the Grand Oral juries. Therefore, I can provide support before these exams.

Difficulties in history and geography can be varied. I can help answer your questions. My first goal will be to identify your specific challenges, and then, through an initial discussion, to define your objectives in order to develop a shared learning strategy.

History and geography can seem daunting, full of dates and names to remember. I will also strive to show you how fascinating and captivating they can be, not only for younger students who need extra help at school, but also for older students who want to broaden their general knowledge or satisfy their curiosity.

Fill it fully — longer, detailed descriptions rank better and convert more students. Mention your teaching style, what students will achieve, and any materials needed.
The biggest gap I see is the Class Title and Category fields appear empty — those are critical for appearing in search. Fill those in first before posting.

Philosophy has got to be one of the most interesting things in the world, and understanding it is greatly helpful for living your life well and, most importantly, having great conversations with others! If you wanna be that guy who knows everything and can talk with people across different beliefs, then understanding the history of philosophy lets you understand what underpins their beliefs and maybe even what opposes them!

History can be a confusing subject.

I specialise in tutoring history specifically the classical era of antiquity (ancient Greece and Rome).
Were I’m getting my degree in right now.

World History is through this a familiar subject in witch I have a lot of expertise in.

In our lessons we will go through time and search for patterns to make sense of history.
As understanding how History happened will make you understand the modern world.

We will at the same time work on your school curriculum.

Italian, history, and art history are subjects that may be part of your high school graduation exams, which is why my courses would be an excellent way to strengthen your skills through texts, written and oral exercises, readings, and much more.

Professional profile (approx. 600 words)

I am a teacher and educational content creator specializing in the humanities, contemporary culture, and interdisciplinary analysis of the human experience through film, music, philosophy, history, and art. My approach goes beyond traditional teaching, aiming to cultivate a critical, aesthetic, and profound understanding of how we perceive the world.

My main area of expertise is European and arthouse cinema, with a particular interest in directors who have transformed cinematic language, such as Ingmar Bergman, Federico Fellini, Andrei Tarkovsky, Jean-Luc Godard, and Michael Haneke. I analyze film not only as entertainment but also as a form of visual thought, capable of expressing complex philosophical, emotional, and social ideas. In my classes, I explore narrative, aesthetics, symbolism, and the relationship between cinema and society.

In the musical field, I work from a broad perspective, encompassing everything from classical music (Beethoven, Mahler, Debussy, Bach) to contemporary genres such as alternative rock, shoegaze, and post-rock. Bands like My Bloody Valentine, Slowdive, and Radiohead are part of my analysis, especially regarding sonic texture, emotionality, and atmospheric construction. I also explore the history of rock as a cultural phenomenon and its impact on youth and social identity.

Philosophy is another fundamental pillar of my teaching. I focus particularly on Friedrich Nietzsche, his critique of traditional morality, the concept of nihilism, the will to power, and the figure of the Übermensch (superman). Starting with Nietzsche, I connect philosophy with contemporary culture, film, and psychology, generating debates about the meaning of existence, individual freedom, and the construction of value in the modern world.

In art history, I cover everything from the Renaissance to contemporary art, paying particular attention to how artistic movements reflect social and intellectual changes. I analyze works not only in terms of their technique, but also their historical, political, and symbolic context. I also explore the relationship between visual art, film, and photography as languages that engage in dialogue with one another.

In general history and the humanities, I work with a cross-disciplinary approach that connects historical processes with the evolution of thought, culture, and social structures. I am particularly interested in how philosophical, artistic, and political ideas influence one another over time.

Psychology is another key area, focusing on the psychology of art, perception, emotions, and identity. I explore how film, music, and culture shape the human mind and how individuals construct meaning from aesthetic and social experiences.

Although it may seem like a different field, I also incorporate football as a cultural and social phenomenon, analyzing its symbolic dimension, its impact on collective identity and its relationship with contemporary narrative, passion and community building.

Overall, my approach is interdisciplinary: I seek to connect film with philosophy, music with psychology, history with art, and popular culture with critical thinking. My goal is to help students develop a deeper, more analytical, and more sensitive perspective on the world, beyond the superficial consumption of culture.
