I am a trained French teacher with a degree in linguistics. I have been teaching since 2012 and I support candidates in improving their French and preparing for official exams.

The preparation is fully tailored to your level, the date of your exam and the skills you need to strengthen.

We are working on the different challenges:
- listening comprehension;
- understanding of written texts;
- written production;
- oral production.

The goal is not only to improve your French, but also to understand what examiners expect and to learn how to respond effectively to exam instructions.

Depending on your needs, we can work on methodology, organization of ideas, argumentation, grammar, vocabulary, time management and correction of written or oral productions.

Exercises and practice topics may be offered between lessons to track your progress and identify areas that require more work.

As the exam approaches, we can also carry out simulations under conditions close to the real test, particularly for oral production.

Before we begin, simply tell me the diploma and level you are preparing for, the scheduled date of the exam, and the difficulties you wish to work on as a priority.

The type of course I teach aims at clarifying the difficulties related to the comprehension and production of philosophical texts. "How should I approach this philosophical problem or text? "In what philosophical and historical context does this issue/problem fit?" "Which texts should I read?" "How should I read them?""How should I organise the information to communicate philosophical ideas?" are some of the questions I can help you solve. I specialise in Wittgenstein later philosophy and in Ordinary Language Philosophy.

This class is suitable for all interested people young, teens and adults.
Zambian history is so rich coming back to the pre -colonial days, colonial days and post colonial days.Zambia a land locked country with 8 neighbouring countries :
Democratic Republic of the Congo, Tanzania, Malawi, Mozambique, Zimbabwe, Botswana, Namibia, and Angola.
The country has 72 Tribes and 10 provinces with 226 parliamentary Constituencies for political governance.
Each tribe is rich in culture and amazingly all the tribes have some common culture practices across the country.
More interesting it's abundance of natural local foods and different methods of preparing food.

If you may have the following questions:
1.What was the pre-colonial life in Zambia before being colonized by Britain?
2.What was it like during colonial days in Zambia?
3.What was a breaking point that made local people unite and fight colonialism?
4.What was the post-colonial life style?
5.What is the current lifestyle in Zambia?
Guess what? All those Questions are covered and satisfactory answers are given during lessons.
At this point you're recommended to book some lessons to understand Zambia🇿🇲 better.

It is true that the philosopher is the friend of wisdom, but above all, he is someone who does not want to make mistakes in reasoning. Philosophizing is a way of reasoning and a way of solving problems that will never have a perfect and definitive solution. Knowing the distance between the Earth and the Moon is not a problem of philosophy, because it is enough to measure to solve it. On the other hand, knowing, for example, what justice is, is a problem of philosophy. A meter will not be able to help us know the answer. We must go about it differently, and in the courses I offer, I will teach you how.

You will learn

- text reading strategies
- case studies with the aim of learning from experts
- methodology in philosophy
- writing an essay
- writing a text commentary
- a work on the philosophers of your choice
- an overview of the history of philosophy
- the general culture necessary to be able to philosophize

I will adapt to your individual needs. Each course is tailor-made. We will analyze where your difficulties lie and together develop a course program that will make you perform as quickly as possible. The basic principle of the courses I offer is dialectics, like Plato's dialogues: reflecting together, making theoretical contributions, asking questions and seeking answers, and testing the validity of reasoning.

For the past 10 years, I have been teaching German using the philosophy methodology, having studied philosophy at the Master's level at Aix-Marseille University. It turns out that the analytical mind is very useful even outside the confines of philosophy. Today, there are even fields of activity such as management with philosophy or philotherapy. In recent years, some German students have asked me to also teach them philosophy courses, and that is why I decided to offer philosophy courses directly.

I look forward to meeting you during a first lesson.

1-to-1 classes for students who get stuck not so much because they “don’t understand”, but because they cannot start, organise, hold attention, or break a big assignment into steps.

We use artificial intelligence as a scaffold — not to do the homework for them.

Who it is for
Secondary / high-school students (also last years of primary if they already work on a computer) with ADHD, dyslexia, dyscalculia or other SEN that affect organisation, focus or processing. It also fits if there is no formal diagnosis but the same pattern repeats at home: forgotten work, freezing in front of a blank page, assignments handed in at the last minute.

What we practise in class
• Breaking a topic or project into a realistic list
• Asking AI for a summary or outline — then checking it against school materials
• Turning a dense paragraph into a map, a visual guide or 5 practice questions
• Building a weekly routine: what gets done today, what can wait, how long it should take
• Clear rules: when AI helps and when it does not

The student leaves the session with something they can use that same afternoon (a plan for an assignment, a guide to a topic, a 3-day calendar).

What the family gets
After several sessions, a small home kit: prompts they may use, tools that fit their age, and how to repeat the method without hovering the whole time.

Pace
8–10 sessions, once a week, is usually what makes the habit stick. You can start with 3–4 and decide after that.

What if human culture is not exclusively human?
Zooanthropology, or On Becoming Cultural with Non-human Animals is an introductory 10-lesson course exploring the relationship between humans and other animals and asking a fundamental question: how much of what we call “culture” has actually emerged through our relationships with other species?
The course offers a different perspective. Rather than considering culture an exclusively human achievement, zooanthropology understands it as something that has emerged through relationships, encounters and exchanges between species. Other animals are not simply objects of human knowledge or resources for human development: they are subjects who have influenced, shaped and transformed us.
This perspective invites us to reconsider our own position in the world and to question some deeply rooted assumptions about the supposed boundary between humans and other animals. It also encourages us to decentre our perspective and to become more attentive to forms of intelligence, communication, emotion, learning and relationship that do not seem to resemble our own.
The course is transdisciplinary, drawing on anthropology, philosophy, ethology and other fields. Along the way, you will encounter concepts such as intersubjectivity, epiphany, hybridisation and epimelesis, among many others. But don't be intimidated by the terminology! No previous knowledge of anthropology, philosophy, ethology or zooanthropology is required. What the course does require is curiosity, an interest in human–nonhuman animal relations, and a willingness to question some familiar ideas and look at the world from a less anthropocentric perspective.
Slides and a bibliography will be provided.
