Philosophy class - For highschoolers (beginners) or college students - perfect your essays and commentaries

From 163.35 CNY /h

These philosophy classes are destined to students who are in highschool or in their first three years of college. They contain help for completing homework (writing essays or commentaries), for studying and learning school classes efficiently, as well as advices on useful books to read and bonus exercices with their corrections.
The methodology for essays or commentaries is very rigorous in France and it can be hard to incorporate it in your work. This class will allow the students to understand this methodology clearly through repeated exercices and their corrections.

English classes - Improve your oral and written comprehension, learn to speak naturally

163.35 CNY /h

English is taught at every stage of a scholar career and in every specialty, which shows that mastering this language is an essential skill no matter your line of work.

These classes offer help with all kinds of homework demanded by schools (essays, commentaries, oral presentations, translations). They are taught in English or in French in order to adapt to the needs each student and to help them perfect their speech and their practice of this language. I also give bonus exercices which we correct together in order to really undertand the methods of each type of exercice and incorporatte it into your works.

For students interested by these classes outside the context of schoool, I offer oral and written exercices taylored to the needs of each student.

Hello,

This course will aim to give you more or less general elements, according to your needs, in order to acquire the basics, or deepen your knowledge of philosophy, and this in any sub-field of the latter: moral, political, epistemological, etc.

Whether you want to prepare for exams, your baccalaureate, the general competition, or a personal publication, I will give you the elements necessary to produce a clean, clear, and well-articulated philosophical reflection.
There’s no need to be afraid, philosophy is ultimately logic and a few questions.
The gibberish, maraboutage, and unknown mystical languages, very little for us!

I hope to find you very soon, to share with you my passion, perhaps also yours, for philosophy!

As part of an anti-modern and out-of-date cultural tradition, my work as a teacher aims to surprise anyone who, disappointed by the traditional school system, has not yet renounced things or the pleasure of thought... In short, the challenge of this teaching being to organize all types of reflection workshops around the greats of the news, thus opening the doors to the themes of philosophy and General Culture

Associate professor of philosophy, I have solid knowledge and solid experience of teaching within the National Education.

My classes are centered on philosophy which are subjects that I really like, which I am keen to teach because they are useful for succeeding in life, for living well.

You will learn a lot of things, you will clarify a lot of things, you will discover or develop your pleasure of reading and thinking freely.

You will see how to approach and resolve problems that seem huge or simply incomprehensible to you.

There are no problems, there are only solutions!
So see you soon !

For seven years now, he has been giving French and philosophy lessons, with a view to preparing for the baccalaureate exams. I seek to help my students to structure their ideas, to assimilate the methods of dissertation and text commentary and to improve their writing and oral expression.

I really appreciate the privileged setting that private lessons provide for strengthening students' self-confidence. I try to ensure that classes are a space for discussion in which they can confide in each other if necessary. I also try to pass on to them my taste for philosophy and literature, in particular through reading recommendations adapted to each person.

I provide students with the documents necessary to prepare for their tests.

✦✦✦ French and literature lessons ✦✦✦

Typical procedure:
- The first hour of class is devoted to an analysis of the copies, the program seen in class and the student's needs.
- Depending on the texts and themes covered in class, I offer a series of exercises as well as progressive training in dissertation and text commentary exercises.
- I provide them with supports so that they can better understand the major literary trends, the different figures of speech and the works followed in the French program.
- To prepare for the French baccalaureate oral exam, I give them “mock orals” on text comments prepared in class and give them a series of tips to improve their oral expression.
- I systematically give homework to be done between each lesson.

Results of my former students in the anticipated French tests for the 2022/2023 session:
Louis: written 18, oral 12
Léa: written 11, oral 15
Estelle: written 14, oral 14
Arnaud: written 15, oral 16
Tiphany: written 16, oral 13
Roxane: written 10, oral 14

✦✦✦ Philosophy lessons ✦✦✦

Graduated with a master's degree in Philosophy from the University of Paris Nanterre and passionate about philosophy, I have been giving lessons for five years to students preparing for the philosophy exam for the baccalaureate.

Typical procedure:
- The first hour of class is devoted to an analysis of the copies, the program seen in class and the student's needs.
- My philosophy courses are more focused on the methodology of the dissertation and the explanation of text and on the development of philosophical reflection than on the learning of “quotations” or philosophical doctrines.
- We approach and explain together some important philosophical texts, which complement and fuel the reflection on the theme covered in class.
- I offer a series of exercises which aim to understand the major philosophical concepts and currents of thought. I also suggest that they practice writing dissertations and explaining philosophical texts.
- I then do a precise analysis of each philosophy assignment and give feedback on what remains to be improved.

Results of my former students in the philosophy tests for the 2021/2022 and 2022/2023 sessions:
Ludmila: 17
Damiya: 15
Ahe: 15
Emma: 16
Clemence: 14

PLEASE NOTE: I do not accept requests to write an assignment for the student. I think that the private teacher must support the student in mastering the commentary and the dissertation with a view to the baccalaureate and must not serve the simple acquisition of a "good grade" in the short term.

We look forward to providing you with further details and meeting you!

All my courses are invoiced, tax exemption possible.

Currently studying in L3 at Sorbonne University, I plan to continue my master's degree in the same establishment. I went through the preparatory class for the major literary schools of Toulouse at the Saint-Sernin high school.
I would like to share my knowledge and my passion for philosophy by helping final year students to prepare for the BAC exam, for which I received a score of 19/20. However, I can of course teach in a framework other than that of the BAC in philosophy.
Although I have never taught, I aspire to become a philosophy teacher one day and I hold the BAFA. I therefore have a keen interest in teaching and I think I have the skills to give high quality courses.

An innovative and interactive course approach in human and social sciences to better understand the mechanisms of our society, develop a solid culture of the disciplines studied and learn to think and discuss as required by the various competitions and exams (Partials, IEP, Preparatory class , Grandes Ecoles competition).

Depending on the student's needs, lessons will focus on philosophy or French, with the study of classic and contemporary works, history and sociological and economic theories, contemporary world and French history.

Above all, my objective through these courses is to make each pupil or student autonomous in their work by two means:
- By providing him with effective working methods that he will retain throughout his schooling
- By arousing curiosity and appetite for “disciplines” which can become fascinating if we understand them beyond their academic dimension.

During our first interview, I suggest discussing with the student their needs and difficulties. In philosophy, it is often a question of going over the course again, working on the method (dissertation, text commentary), and exploring some references in more depth. Subsequently, the course is often structured around a question, a theme or a subject of philosophy, which we learn to deal with together. I also support people in preparatory classes, having myself studied in B/L for two years.

In French, our work takes several directions, depending on the level and needs of the student: FLE, spelling or grammar lessons, but also method (dissertation, text commentary), or explanation of the course in literature.

A graduate of the baccalaureate with congratulations from the jury and a philosophy student at the Catholic Institute of Paris, I offer personalized courses to improve your literary and linguistic level.
Whether you are in middle school preparing for the brevet or in high school (bac 1st and final year), I suggest you work on methods (commentary, dissertation, linear explanation), literary or philosophical analysis, and improve your oral level!

I teach this philosophy course with the aim of allowing everyone to take ownership of the subject and understand the philosophical issues going far beyond simply academic use and with pedagogy and dynamism. It also aims to take ownership of the authors and references.

A former PhD student in philosophy, I have been giving private philosophy lessons for several years now. I specialize in phenomenology and the philosophy of science, but I have a fairly comprehensive knowledge of all philosophical topics.

Skilled in providing support following the baccalaureate method, I can also adapt to university profiles. In fact, I have already supported several students in writing their dissertations.

I am at your disposal for any further information!

My methodology: Learning to structure one's thoughts to express oneself better
My approach is based on a simple observation: success is not achieved through lack of effort, but often through a lack of method and confidence. My role is to transform subjects sometimes perceived as abstract (Philosophy, French) or intimidating (English) into concrete tools for success.

The typical course of a session:
1. Quick diagnosis: We start by identifying the areas of uncertainty from the previous lesson or the difficulties with a specific exercise.
2. Taking action: No boring lectures! We work on concrete exercises, essay plans or oral practice (in English) to "learn by doing".
3. The "Montreal Method": Having worked for two and a half years in Quebec, I use a North American pedagogy that is very focused on encouragement, clear structure and student autonomy.
4. Summary & Objectives: We end each session with a recap of the key points so that the student knows exactly what to revise.

What makes the difference: As a philosophy student, I don't just teach authors; I teach the methodology that allows students to think for themselves about major philosophical concepts. In English, my dual nationality allows me to naturally correct speech patterns and accents. In French, I've had the privilege of preparing dozens of students for their Baccalaureate exams, using a targeted approach. My experience has taught me that there are no wrong answers, only ideas that need to be better formulated.
