Private lessons in HISTORY, GEOGRAPHY, HOMEWORK HELPI adapt to the profile of each intern or student according to their objective and level.
The goal is not to work endless hours, but to show how to be able to work alone or partially independently in a short time.
It is always a pleasure for me to be recognized in the street 15 years after classes, and to be thanked for having provided a real service to the person concerned.
This activity is a passion of mine that I have been pursuing since I was 16 years old.
I hope to be able to share it with you to prepare effectively, by significantly reducing your legitimate apprehension of exams.

Global History & Society: From Empires to Modern NationsThis course introduces secondary and sixth-form students to the evolution of global civilizations, with a focus on comparative history, political thought, and social transformation. Drawing on 30+ years of experience teaching History and Liberal Studies in Hong Kong—including at A-Level and university level—I guide students through themes such as colonialism, revolutions, global conflicts, and modern political ideologies.
Each lesson combines primary source analysis, critical discussion, and structured writing skills (essays, arguments, and document-based questions). Ideal for students preparing for GCSE, A-Level, or international entrance exams.

Italian language course. Learning a new language is always a challenge, so we will get there in small steps.Italian is the language of literature, of bel canto, and the language of one of the most beautiful countries in the world. In my course we will start with the linguistic and phonetic basics to then advance to more complex writings. You will practice speaking and correct pronunciation, to then arrive at written exercises, which you will also have to do at home to better assimilate the contents.

Personalized history and social studies classes. Grading and tutoring of practical work. Academic and secondary levels.I am a history teacher, having graduated with honors from UNLu and honored by the National Academy of History as the highest national average. I have been focused on private education for over half a decade, both at the academic and secondary levels.
Beyond my specific academic training, I have been dedicated to the study of history and social sciences for 20 years (and to the creation of a library—of almost 2,000 volumes—that is available to students: if any material is required, it is digitized and sent).
I specialize in ancient history, medieval history, Argentine history, history of religions, and more. I have extensive knowledge of philosophy, theology, and the history of ideas. I also teach classes in politics, sociology, anthropology, art history, economics, and other social sciences that make up the corpus of history as a discipline.
In addition to teaching highly prepared and personalized classes, he can also guide, direct, and assist in the creation of practical projects or dissertations, whether group or individual.
For academic or school work, grammar and style corrections are also provided, along with tutoring to ensure the work is perfect.
Classes are delivered in a constructive manner, with the key focus being on students truly understanding the subject matter, developing an interest in it, and discovering how their daily lives connect with what they are studying. Beyond academic depth and the presentation of the subject matter, a fruitful dialogue between professor and student is highly valued.
This is my particular approach to teaching, but it may vary depending on the needs of each student.
I'm also interested in sharing study techniques—beyond the specific topic we're going to cover—that adapt to each student's needs, since it's not just what you study that's important, but how you study it.

Finally, the class prices shown in the ad are averaged and referential; the type of work to be done, the number of classes, and the different dynamics and realities make it difficult for me to come up with a "fixed" price for the classes. Teaching is an eminently human service, not a trade in goods. Therefore: contact me and let's talk.

Courses in Philosophy, Ethics and Critical ThinkingPhilosophy is much more than a simple method; it's a more general way of positioning ourselves, even a way of life. At its core, it's critical thinking and the ability to see beyond what's left unsaid and unclear, and to find information, question, and arrive at a more nuanced vision of the world.
Together we will begin with everyday facts to explore the foundations of philosophy, look for clues in the history of thought and learn to be independent in our critical thinking.
I also support the questioning of major texts and problems posed in literature courses, philosophy courses in middle school, and preparation for the Swiss maturity, see prep for university studies.
NB: Particular interest in feminism to better understand current societal issues is welcome. I reserve the right to refuse any indecent or misogynistic contact.
