Western Armenian is a language that has been put in the endangered language's list, and I personally believe that such a rich language should never die. I believe that I am taking a huge initiative to be one of the individuals who'll try to save this important language from disappearing.
I try to make my lessons as interacting as possible. The lessons and exercises will be provided through PowerPoint presentations. I try to listen to my student in order to prepare the lesson plan together, according to his needs and preferences.
I've always been the smiling and friendly tutor who makes the student comfortable during the lessons. I believe that in order to reach the students you need to understand them also emotionally and psychologically.

The authenticity of an exchange. In a society increasingly rooted in a competitive approach, where automated exchanges with Artificial Intelligence cannot replace the need for human interaction, this is precisely what we lack.
As a lawyer by training and an independent legal consultant, creating "Le Droit" is a breath of fresh air. This private tutoring service is aimed directly at students and any adult who needs to overcome difficulties in studying the following subjects: French, Mathematics, Sciences, Philosophy, History, and Languages (English and Spanish). To be clear, these subjects will be studied up to the Baccalaureate level (General/Technological/Vocational).

Moreover, being currently preparing for the entrance exam to the National School of Magistrates and passionate about the beauty of multidisciplinary learning, the school program is being reviewed extremely regularly.

🎓 It is now necessary to elaborate somewhat on my experience:
4 years already dedicated to private lessons (which is significant) via the organization Complétude as well as independently (Law, French, Mathematics, Sciences, History and Languages), and this at all levels (primary, middle school, high school, university students and adults).

Regarding my teaching experience in legal subjects, I invite you to consult my other course offering dedicated to this subject and also published on Apprentus.

👋 What about my teaching approach, you might ask?
Beyond this desire for authenticity, it seems particularly important to dismantle the prejudices that poison the perception of students experiencing difficulties. To ensure the smooth running of this course and so that the student or adult feels as comfortable as possible, it is worth remembering that the foundation of all conversation and understanding remains listening. Listening to one's equal, regardless of age.

💬 Wouldn't you be interested?
Please feel free to contact me by message and I remain available to discuss the frequency of classes and their modalities (in-person in Tours, videoconference and possibility of travel if necessary).

In the meantime, ladies and gentlemen, students or interested individuals, it would be a real pleasure for me to accompany you as best I can on your path to success because, as its name indicates: you all have the Right to Knowledge! 😉

History can be a confusing subject.

I specialise in tutoring history specifically the classical era of antiquity (ancient Greece and Rome).
Were I’m getting my degree in right now.

World History is through this a familiar subject in witch I have a lot of expertise in.

In our lessons we will go through time and search for patterns to make sense of history.
As understanding how History happened will make you understand the modern world.

We will at the same time work on your school curriculum.

Italian, history, and art history are subjects that may be part of your high school graduation exams, which is why my courses would be an excellent way to strengthen your skills through texts, written and oral exercises, readings, and much more. If your high school graduation exams are already a distant memory but your desire to learn remains, you’ve come to the right place: my courses are suitable for all ages! Together, we can study both written and spoken Italian, or refreshing your knowledge of history or art history through varied and engaging texts and exercises.

Professional profile (approx. 600 words)

I am a teacher and educational content creator specializing in the humanities, contemporary culture, and interdisciplinary analysis of the human experience through film, music, philosophy, history, and art. My approach goes beyond traditional teaching, aiming to cultivate a critical, aesthetic, and profound understanding of how we perceive the world.

My main area of expertise is European and arthouse cinema, with a particular interest in directors who have transformed cinematic language, such as Ingmar Bergman, Federico Fellini, Andrei Tarkovsky, Jean-Luc Godard, and Michael Haneke. I analyze film not only as entertainment but also as a form of visual thought, capable of expressing complex philosophical, emotional, and social ideas. In my classes, I explore narrative, aesthetics, symbolism, and the relationship between cinema and society.

In the musical field, I work from a broad perspective, encompassing everything from classical music (Beethoven, Mahler, Debussy, Bach) to contemporary genres such as alternative rock, shoegaze, and post-rock. Bands like My Bloody Valentine, Slowdive, and Radiohead are part of my analysis, especially regarding sonic texture, emotionality, and atmospheric construction. I also explore the history of rock as a cultural phenomenon and its impact on youth and social identity.

Philosophy is another fundamental pillar of my teaching. I focus particularly on Friedrich Nietzsche, his critique of traditional morality, the concept of nihilism, the will to power, and the figure of the Übermensch (superman). Starting with Nietzsche, I connect philosophy with contemporary culture, film, and psychology, generating debates about the meaning of existence, individual freedom, and the construction of value in the modern world.

In art history, I cover everything from the Renaissance to contemporary art, paying particular attention to how artistic movements reflect social and intellectual changes. I analyze works not only in terms of their technique, but also their historical, political, and symbolic context. I also explore the relationship between visual art, film, and photography as languages that engage in dialogue with one another.

In general history and the humanities, I work with a cross-disciplinary approach that connects historical processes with the evolution of thought, culture, and social structures. I am particularly interested in how philosophical, artistic, and political ideas influence one another over time.

Psychology is another key area, focusing on the psychology of art, perception, emotions, and identity. I explore how film, music, and culture shape the human mind and how individuals construct meaning from aesthetic and social experiences.

Although it may seem like a different field, I also incorporate football as a cultural and social phenomenon, analyzing its symbolic dimension, its impact on collective identity and its relationship with contemporary narrative, passion and community building.

Overall, my approach is interdisciplinary: I seek to connect film with philosophy, music with psychology, history with art, and popular culture with critical thinking. My goal is to help students develop a deeper, more analytical, and more sensitive perspective on the world, beyond the superficial consumption of culture.

This class brings Latin to people who enjoy words, history, puzzles, and the feeling of getting closer to the ancient and medieval worlds. I work with your interests and level, whether you studied Latin at school, or are completely new to learning, to help you enjoy this historical and cultural language with its connection to our world today and in the past.

Hello, my name is Clément. I'm 19 years old and currently studying law. I'd like to teach history. Although many people think history is useless, I disagree. In fact, I believe that knowing history helps us understand where we come from in order to better understand where we want to go.

Passionate about general knowledge, I've always loved school and learning new things. I also really enjoy sharing knowledge, which is why I earned my teaching certification; I'm therefore perfectly comfortable giving lessons and guiding students' progress :)
In the case of a student in the school system: we will review the current year's lessons/those to come next year in order to make up for any potential delays and/or get ahead to facilitate the coming year.
Outside of the school system: I will create materials tailored to your tastes :)
