Ancient Greek history and philosophy from Minoan civilisation

We do not need to learn exhausting lists of historical events, names and dates.
Just need to see what happened, take a look of humanity and certain people in our attempt to explain the reasons.
History is a science. A historian is a detective. Many or few clues are given, explanation and interpretation are laid on him.
At the same time, we meet Ancient Greek philosophy which tried to explain the birth of our universe and give answers to questions about our existence.

From the Minoan civilisation (circa 2000 B.C.) to the birth of Christianity.

Reviews (1)

Very nice way of teaching and very good and kind professor. The class is always interesting and rich in useful feedback for good practice.
I am about to finish my studies on German Language and Literature (Linguistik) at National and Kapodistrian University of Athens. I have already a Bachelor in History/Greek Language and a Master in Philosophy. I am specialised in CLIL method, e.g. teaching Philosophy/History parallel to the teaching of Greek/German language. I offer lessons of German language for levels: A1, A1+ A2, A2+ B1, B1+ B2, B2+ Especially for students with an English-language or Greek-language background.
With these lessons we aim to have a practical and theoritical acquaintance with the modern greek language and learn to: -read Greek -write Greek -speak Greek -greek grammar and syntax *For those who want to learn how to speak Greek, I have planned a specific guideline that acquires minimum 10 lessons, so you can communicate effectively in Greek! *For those who want to learn the greek language overall, we make a plan together, according to the needs and the purpose of each person!

German and English lessons with a native speaker and philosopher
Learning a language is like learning how to ride a bike. The first steps are the hardest and need much guiding. There are a lot of stepping stones and ways to fall. Later on it becomes easier, but on the other hand the language grows and the opportunities of use are widening. I offer German and English classes for beginners and advanced students. Furthermore I offer classes in Philosophy in both languages to deepen the language and deepen the knowledge and use of the given language. The classes can be structured in likes of the needs and the strengths of the student, as I am experienced in teaching abroad as well as different age groups and levels.

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.

Learn Armenian language, grammar, literature and history in Western Armenian.
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.

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.
