From 85.86 C$ /h

With this course I want to make available to anyone the knowledge acquired over 20 years teaching history courses in colleges and universities. History and humanism are my passion and I take great pleasure in sharing this passion through enjoyable and entertaining lessons, always supported by appropriate audiovisual resources. This course aims to cover the topics that the student wants to know and/or delve into.
History is an educational experience that allows students to explore and understand humanity's past. By emphasizing significant events and analyzing how these factors have influenced the evolution of society and civilization we can understand how the decisions and actions of the past have shaped the world we live in today.

Do you love Italian people, history, and food and you would like to speak the language?
I am a CEDILS-certified Italian teacher born and raised in Florence, and I've also been a language student myself for a long time! If you want to be able to interact with Italians quickly, I can give you some tips about correct pronunciation, fundamental grammar, and vocabulary, but also Italian art and popular culture, which I think is fundamental to understanding the mentality and the country that you are going to interact with.
Lessons will be tailored according to the student's needs, level, and mother language and focused on the conversation.

I am also available to proofread your writings.

History is the vector that allows us to better understand our society, the world in which we live. It is essential for general culture. The level of the course will adapt to the level of the student, from primary to university. It is also possible to adapt it in relation to an exam or competition to be taken, or to a person wishing to complete their general knowledge on a particular subject.

Greek Art A-Z is a journey into the world of Modern Greek Art & culture from the independence of the Greek State to the present times.
We will explore together all the important artistic creations and set them in their historical and social context, in order to understand their coherence, establish the direct relationship between art and the cultural evolution of each period, and connect Art with life.
Art, whether it serves religion, beliefs, ideals, passions, ambitions, hopes, or the need for communication, is a unique aesthetic experience combining myth with history and science.
The course also includes guest lecturers and artists talks as well as visits to museums, galleries and ateliers.

*Trips and in situ lectures for students in Athens or virtual tours for the web students.

Presentations, texts, images, videos, virtual collections, documentaries, gallery & museum visits*

Language: Greek, English

Whether your children need support to pass their History subjects (from Primary to High School), prepare for the EvAU (Educational Assessment), or pass a subject you're struggling with at university, or for their Final Project (FYP) or Master's Thesis (TFM) if you're pursuing a Master's degree, or simply want to expand your knowledge of History and general culture, count on me! I have a degree in History and am currently working on my doctoral thesis in Modern History.

Spanish lessons on conversation and culture: You don't get to know a country by reading its laws, but through experience. This is a conversation-based course that will give you the knowledge you need for learning spanish through a ludic experience, taking confident steps towards the goal of mastery. Speak on culture give you the tool to encourage with patience the learning on grammar and vocabular the language needs.
