Philosophy and Theology at Pre-U and A level (taught in English)
This class is aimed at students who are studying Philosophy and Theology at Pre-u (Cambridge) or A level, however, if prospective students would like to learn this subject at a more simplified level I am able to do that also. While this class is aimed at preparing the student for their final examinations, my aim is to also imbue love and interest in some of the most interesting questions asked by mankind such as; what is the nature of reality? Is morality subjective or objective? and do we really have free will? During this online class, students will also develop their argumentative/essay writing skills while also enhancing their general ability to think critically. If you are already well accustomed to this course, I can help you develop your understanding of the topic further, offering services such as how to plan a good essay as well as suggestions for further reading.
Considering the current pandemic, these classes will be conducted online using either "zoom" or "go to meeting" until restrictions are lifted.

About Me
My favourite part of teaching is when I'm able to have an open and intellectual discussion with my students. I see discussion as the ultimate way of developing one's understanding of any humanities subject, especially Philosophy, as this gives the student the opportunity to express their own opinion. In doing so and defending it, this allows them to gain a wider understanding of the strengths and weaknesses of their argument and to also consider other perspectives which they may not have considered before. This is all in the spirit of coming closer to a better understanding of the truth which for me is the fundamental purpose of philosophy.Education

38-year-old PhD student offers classes and tutoring at secondary and university levels for any area of HumanitiesI have taken a few years off to complete my PhD in History and I would not like to stop teaching and learning in the meantime. I guess it is a cliché, but it is amazing what I have learned by teaching. If anything can distinguish me, it is that my personal experience has shown me that, when it comes to learning, complexities such as age are simply that. Experience in national and international schools. Possibility of classes in English (C1).

Téo
Business school student (EDHEC) gives math and English lessons from middle school to high school in Lille. Experience as a tutor at EDHECI mainly teach math lessons from middle school to high school.
Before starting the lessons, I need to get in touch with the student to know their level, the areas where they want to improve and their objectives.
Depending on the level, I adapt the work seen in class to the different points of improvement and suggest exercises consistent with what the student is stuck on.
At the same time, I go over point by point the elements that were not for the student (in the Ds and the questions) I rework the exercises seen in class.
Finally, and this is the most important, I advise the student on his working methods, with what state of mind to approach the exercises.
I can also provide homework help in subjects other than mathematics: I got 17 in the HEC philosophy exams and I didn't get below 18 in subjects such as SES, Philosophy and history in the BAC.
I recommend at least one math lesson per week in order to take stock of the week; it is regularity that allows progress.
As a Tutor at EDHEC I already have experience of courses with high schools.
I am a calm, composed and educational person.
In terms of math, I got 18 in my math baccalaureate and then I went to a HEC preparatory class at Louis-Le-Grand in advanced math where I had more than 12 hours of math per week.

A study of the revealed books, Lesson One: “Come, let us ascend.”May the peace, mercy, and blessings of God be upon you. I am pleased to present to you a reading and analysis of the texts of the holy books of the people of monotheism.
Maybe I'll start from Isaiah's prophecy.
And it shall come to pass in the latter days, that the mountain of the Lord's house shall be established in the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills, and all nations shall flow unto it. 3And many peoples shall come, and they shall say, Come, let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, to the house of the God of Jacob: and he shall teach us his ways, and we shall walk in his paths. For out of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem.
