The course I teach is interactive, and I value the fact that the learner asks me what they need and what would be helpful. My goal is to be effective, and I want the course to be engaging thanks to digital tools and various applications. The learner defines their objectives and desires with me, and I can adapt accordingly. I am flexible, and the course schedule can be renegotiated after each session.

The type of course I teach aims at clarifying the difficulties related to the comprehension and production of philosophical texts. "How should I approach this philosophical problem or text? "In what philosophical and historical context does this issue/problem fit?" "Which texts should I read?" "How should I read them?""How should I organise the information to communicate philosophical ideas?" are some of the questions I can help you solve. I specialise in Wittgenstein later philosophy and in Ordinary Language Philosophy.

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.

In this class, we practice conversational English by diving into the stories we love. Instead of dry grammar drilling, our focus is on natural discussion centered on books, writing, cinema, and television. We can chat about characters, narrative themes, storylines, or simply discuss the stories that interest you.

We can also read and discuss short book excerpts or script pieces together, depending on your interests. As a writer, I'm especially interested in how language creates emotion, reveals personality, and brings stories to life. Together, we'll explore not only what characters say, but why they say it that way, and how you can use natural expressions to sound more confident in your own English.

Don't worry — you don't need to be a literary critic to enjoy these lessons. We use stories as a starting point for conversation, not as an excuse to overanalyze every page or scene. Whether you enjoy discussing your favourite novel, breaking down an unforgettable movie scene, or simply chatting about fictional worlds, the goal is to create a relaxed environment where English feels alive and enjoyable.

It's all about enjoying the language instead of seeing it as something intimidating. I will correct your mistakes when appropriate, but mistakes are a natural and valuable part of learning. They help us identify what to improve and build lasting confidence.

Every lesson is tailored to your interests, goals, and pace. The aim is to help you build real-world speaking confidence, expand your vocabulary, and enjoy using English in a relaxed, friendly environment.

MULTILINGUAL LISTENING SUPPORT

If you get stuck, you are welcome to use your native language when necessary. I have passive listening and reading comprehension of Spanish, French, Italian, Portuguese, and German, in addition to being a native Serbian speaker.

Our lessons and explanations will primarily be conducted in English or Serbian.

ONLINE LESSONS

Lessons are conducted via Google Meet or Microsoft Teams, depending on your preference. We can use screen sharing and digital materials when they are useful for the lesson.

Philosophy is a fascinating but often difficult discipline to grasp. For this reason, it discourages many. Yet it is essential for understanding the world around us. Philosophy develops critical thinking and helps to better organize one's thoughts, while allowing each individual to gain a deeper understanding of themselves and to better analyze social issues. I offer courses tailored to your needs and objectives.

For high school students:
- Analysis of the texts discussed in class
- Explanation of the concepts used in your course
- Fundamentals of commentary and essay writing to succeed in the baccalaureate exam
- General knowledge to prepare you for higher education

For undergraduate students at university:
- Reading and analysis of key texts from the philosophical tradition
- Consolidation of the commentary and essay writing method
- Logic of the proposals: a return to the fundamentals
- History of philosophy: focus on a school of thought of your choice
- If needed, work on philosophical texts in English or Ancient Greek
- If needed, philosophical discussions on your favorite topics
- If needed, support in choosing a thesis topic for the master's degree

For adults wishing to discover the wonderful world of philosophy:
- Reading texts related to your interests
- History of philosophy courses covering the periods that interest you
Discussions combining cinema, literature and philosophy
- If needed, proofreading of your personal writings (additional cost)

In this course, you will acquire a solid philosophical foundation through the study of the great authors of the tradition: Plato, Aristotle, Hobbes, Locke, Kant, Nietzsche, and Marx, to name just a few. This course also aims to be an entry point to philosophy as it is practiced today; therefore, we will not hesitate to explore more contemporary texts from diverse traditions (feminism, political ecology, technocriticism, transhumanism, etc.). All of this is done with the same goal: to develop and enrich your thinking.

What if human culture is not exclusively human?
Zooanthropology, or On Becoming Cultural with Non-human Animals is an introductory 10-lesson course exploring the relationship between humans and other animals and asking a fundamental question: how much of what we call “culture” has actually emerged through our relationships with other species?
The course offers a different perspective. Rather than considering culture an exclusively human achievement, zooanthropology understands it as something that has emerged through relationships, encounters and exchanges between species. Other animals are not simply objects of human knowledge or resources for human development: they are subjects who have influenced, shaped and transformed us.
This perspective invites us to reconsider our own position in the world and to question some deeply rooted assumptions about the supposed boundary between humans and other animals. It also encourages us to decentre our perspective and to become more attentive to forms of intelligence, communication, emotion, learning and relationship that do not seem to resemble our own.
The course is transdisciplinary, drawing on anthropology, philosophy, ethology and other fields. Along the way, you will encounter concepts such as intersubjectivity, epiphany, hybridisation and epimelesis, among many others. But don't be intimidated by the terminology! No previous knowledge of anthropology, philosophy, ethology or zooanthropology is required. What the course does require is curiosity, an interest in human–nonhuman animal relations, and a willingness to question some familiar ideas and look at the world from a less anthropocentric perspective.
Slides and a bibliography will be provided.
