Tailor-made courses on Chinese culture, eg. history, philosophy, society, economy, popculture,...

From 41 € /h

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.

Mandarin Chinese courses: Beginner - Intermediate - Advanced

41 € /h

With a master's degree in Sinology (KULeuven, 2015), years of professional experience in the field and 6 years of experience in the Chinese Minor bachelor programme and evening courses at VUB, I'm confident that my courses offer an efficient and comprehensive path to Chinese language proficiency.

This class provides tailor-made Chinese language courses for any age. By default, the course focusses on oral communication (listening and speaking skills) with a large amount of interaction. Reading and writing is available (and recommended), but optional. As a non-native speaker, I know what it is to learn Chinese at a later age.

Textbooks, workbook exercises and additional character writing exercises are included in the price.

Philosophy is not inaccessible! We must find the right way to approach it and give ourselves the time to get to know it. It should not be held as a secret for a small number of people. You can benefit from it. Despite the fact that it is often considered complex enough, if you just give it a sincere essay, you might realize that you really love what it can bring you.
I know that approaching a subject like philosophy or even the history of literature is not always easy. But interest can arise in contact with the material, and the way to approach it can really change the prospects of such learning.

For each student, there is a unique way to learn. So, let's see what suits you best.

I am graduated in French and professor of philosophy and I hope to meet you soon. Do not bring happiness and tranquility
I am currently a professor of French and an associate in philosophy.

I graduated with a Master in Philosophy, a Master in Political Science, a Master in University Pedagogy (with distinction), and I am a doctoral student in Philosophy. I like the interaction with the students and the dynamics in my races. I have several interests and motivations (including musical composition and literature), so conversation lessons are my asset.

Folklore from the south of the world – Music Lesson

I am Chilean and I am fan and player of the music of the southern cone: Chile, Argentina and Uruguay. Specifically I can help you learn tango, cueca, milonga, murga, boleros and tonadas. To a lesser extent I can help to learn Afro-Peruvian and bossa nova.

The lessons I offer can include musical practice, rhythms, progressions and typical melodies, as well as the study of the history of the musical genres and the culture associated with them.

If you want to nurture your career as a musician with other genres or if you are an amateur musician with an interest in music from the south of the world, these lessons are for you. If you are not a musician and simply want to approach the study of the culture, I can also provide books, articles and videos relating to it.

I would love to contribute to the further dissemination of this folklore that I love so much.

Are you interested in learning Spanish and expanding your popular culture in a different language?

Spanish is in the top five most important languages in the World and is present in a whole continent. The language changes in its dialects across different countries and a good way of exploring this is through our favorite storytelling method, movies!

This course provides skills for students to increase their cinema culture as well as their knowledge of Spanish!

I offer my services to help your children achieve their academic goals, whether it is for the little ones who are discovering reading and writing, or for teenagers in the middle of preparing for exams. I also have experience with university students who needed a helping hand in certain subjects.
Patient and attentive, I adapt to the specific needs of each student, offering them personalized support to help them progress at their own pace and with confidence.
In terms of education, I followed a Preparatory Class for the Grandes Écoles in France (literature, philosophy, history, geography and languages), and obtained a bachelor's degree in English Language, Literature and Civilization. I then continued with a master's degree in British and American translation and civilization. I had the chance to work for two years at the Lycée Français Jean Monnet in Brussels, where I acquired solid experience with students of all ages and a good understanding of the expectations of the school system.
I would be happy to discuss this with you and see how I can contribute to its success.

In these tutorials, I will teach you how to read and understand a philosophical text, how to solve a philosophical problem, how to answer an exam question, how to structure an essay, how to write clear and persuasive texts.

About me:
I am an emeritus university professor who still enjoys teaching. I have taught philosophy at top British universities for decades. Many of my former students have done very well in their subsequent careers, whether in academia or beyond.

I obtained my doctorate at the University of Oxford in the philosophy of logic and language, and have published many books and articles in various areas of philosophy. Among my favourite philosophers are Aristotle, Aquinas, Descartes, Kant, Wittgenstein and Heidegger. But I enjoy reading others as well!
