Stress is, in biology, the set of reactions of an organism subjected to pressures or constraints of the environment. Anxiety is a mental and physical malaise, born from the feeling of the imminence of a danger, characterized by a diffuse fear which can go as far as panic. While anxiety is a one-time emotion & often occurs as a fit, whereas anxiety can be more chronic in nature.

All three are not necessarily signs of weakness and without being a choice, they affect many people to varying intensities. Not ignoring your pain and being accompanied to find coping strategies is vital.

These workshops offer you to learn to listen, tame, manage and control your emotions, stress, anxiety and anxiety.

The objectives are clear, with always practical applications:
- Discover your own emotional process to understand the role and impact of emotions
- Analyze its operations and implement (concrete) strategies & clear techniques to channel them
- Develop your emotional awareness to strengthen your balance / harmony / self-confidence as well as the best discovery & control of your own resources / skills / potential as well as new tools
- Overcome your fears and blockages to be able to move forward and calmly
- Reduce the psychological / psycho-somatic manifestations of his emotions
- Optimize the emotional process thanks to the concept of emotional intelligence
- Make your sensitivity & possible hypersensitivity a strength

Indeed, the sensitive & hypersensitive represent a small part of the population and are able to perceive what others do not feel, which is hidden but try to conform to what is expected of them and of them. '' be able to live in community. After appropriate support, a hypersensitive can learn to tame their innate abilities

What happens during a session ?

After having defined together one or more global objectives based on your initial problem, each session takes place in two stages.

1) Browse, analyze & dissect together the reflections, thoughts and notes taken during the week and related to your emotions: actions taken based on the suggestions of the previous week; thoughts; feelings: what worked or not / corresponded or not to your expectations. It is also an opportunity to get to know you better in order to better define / define / identify and then solve together the challenges / emotional blockages of the moment.

2) Based on the conclusions of the first part, a proposal of two to three sub-issues of the day to be dealt with during the session (sub-issues built from your initial issue): to answer them, for each of them 'between them, a series of ten to fifteen pragmatic reflections / actions will be proposed to you. Three possible answers:
- "I have already tried this solution but it does not suit me" or "I do not really believe it": we go to the next suggestion
- “Never tried” or “why not”, “I'll think about it”: we set ourselves the goal of trying as soon as the opportunity arises, by the next session

Concretely, a session = a reflection but above all A SESSION = SOLUTIONS / proposals / concrete suggestions to put into practice for the following session in order to overcome its blockages.

According to the defined objective, it is a question of identifying & resolving the impact of emotions and their bad channeling not only on his communication but especially on his daily life.

► Learn to know your intimate and sexual desires, deepen them, assume them and perceive their meaning, while being aware of your own limits and those of your partner, understand your blockages in order to overcome them, take advantage of the approach socio-cognitive of sexual desire, better integrate the functioning of one's partner, integrate tools / techniques / methods / know-how / key phrases to take pleasure while leaving it to spontaneity & naturalness, improve the link between affectivity and sexual intimacy but also communication with your partner, play (...): these are examples of the objectives of these personalized sessions, in order to ultimately improve your intimate and sexual satisfaction, accompanied by a mediator specialized.

➤ Together, step by step, it's about getting to know each other better (through your past experience, what you like or appreciate the least about yourself / about the other), by analyzing situations in a thorough and pragmatic way. Indeed, this step is essential in order not to orient towards / "tackle" a pre-established model, but to adapt to each situation.

➤ In parallel, from the first session, once the key points are better understood / assimilated, and the objectives gradually defined, tackle, based on your daily life / your experience, the art of sexuality and its subtleties, while valuing the complexity of sexuality and not its complications.

► My mission: to help you understand, analyze, discover and discover yourself to better enjoy yourself, while gaining self-confidence & acting in order to no longer be limited by your beliefs.

➤ If the discretion and confidentiality of the coach are essential, it is therefore a question of offering a tailor-made program / training, following an initial 'diagnosis'.

► These sessions can, for example, deal with how to regain confidence and make you reconnect with a complex but not complicated, subtle but not tangled sexuality, in short fulfilled while understanding the key elements of your own psychology and that of your partner (... ). But also how to strengthen your sexual charisma to unlock your potential and take pleasure.

➤ Objective here again: to introduce concrete techniques / methods which make it possible to communicate easily, in a fluid, efficient and always natural way, while mastering situations.

➤ Non-verbal language, sexualization and avoidance of the friend zone (...): the objective being to demystify these themes in theory and in practice.

➤ Coaching is based on precise questioning techniques, helping the person being supported to find a solution to a problem. At the end of each session, the coachee will master new ways of thinking, actions to accomplish and will have better motivation. Depending on the clients' expectations, the coach can suggest other approaches.

➤ So what do the first individual coaching sessions look like? First, a first exploratory contact during which your expectations are examined, the nature of the request and the context are evaluated, a 'diagnosis' is discussed, taking into account your difficulties, your needs, your objective.
Then, it is a question of developing a precise procedure and proposing lines of work. A relationship of trust is gradually established through a benevolent alchemy, where listening, empathy and the absence of judgment are central.

➤ Thus, after having carried out together an initial assessment of the situation, a kind of inventory, it is a question of determining the objectives to be reached, the feelings and the questions related to the situation as well as proposing actions to achieve your goal, resolve constraining situations that stand in your way, using tools that will be offered to you according to your situation to get out of your comfort zone and change your perspective.

➤ The guide then asks questions aimed at exploring solutions aimed at achieving the objective, through experiments and exercises. Through various tools (drawing, role playing, metaphor, visualization, etc.), this questioning helps to change perspective, get out of an impasse in order to explore various options that you might not have thought of. this way, based on tools and experience. For example, it could be a new way of thinking about difficulties or another approach to identifying and considering resolving conflicts or a progression in terms of personal development or in terms of a career focusing always on the development of personal resources and self-knowledge.
At the start of the next meeting, the coachee begins with a summary of the activations and the evolution of the state from the last meeting. This step makes it possible to have an evaluation of the positive points and those which are less so in order to readjust the set strategy.

➤ Concretely, ONE SESSION = SOLUTIONS / proposals / concrete suggestions to put into practice for the next session in order to overcome blockages or improve self-knowledge.

Note that during the videoconference session, all the notes are transcribed in the chat so that you can access them at any time when you wish.

I am a Doctor of Psychology (PhD) and researcher with extensive experience in teaching and mentoring. Since October 2016, I have successfully tutored undergraduate, postgraduate, and Ph.D. students, as well as professionals, in areas including Psychology (AS, A-level (AQA or other exam boards), and degree level), Statistics, Data Analysis, SPSS, Jamovi, JASP, R/RStudio, Research Methods, and in support of research projects, theses, and dissertations.

I specialise in Clinical Psychology, particularly reading disabilities and dyslexia, though I also have strong knowledge across other areas of psychology, research methodology, and data analysis, with expertise in SPSS.

I offer individual, live, one-to-one online sessions via Zoom, tailored to your learning goals. I can also recommend relevant literature and provide resources from my own curated database to support your studies and research.

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.

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.

Philosophy and Psychology for Adults: Thinking, Understanding, and Getting to Know Yourself Better

Have you ever wondered why you make certain decisions, what you really want from your life, or what meaning some experiences that have marked you have?

This class arises precisely from those questions.

This isn't your typical philosophy or psychology class, and you don't need any prior knowledge. It's a space to pause, reflect, and discuss the questions we all ask ourselves at some point in our lives, but rarely find the time to address.

Through philosophy, psychology, and other related disciplines, we will explore topics such as self-knowledge, relationships, freedom, fear, happiness, decision-making, identity, the meaning of life, our beliefs, and the great questions that accompany us as human beings.

The idea isn't to give you ready-made answers. On the contrary: it's about learning to ask better questions and finding your own answers.

The sessions will be dynamic and participatory, combining explanation

Explore questions of meaning, freedom, responsibility, values, choice, suffering, identity, mortality, and existence through Logotherapy, Existential Analysis, and philosophical inquiry.

My background includes advanced training in Logotherapy and Existential Analysis, alongside academic studies in Philosophy, Archaeology, and Comparative Literature. This interdisciplinary background allows me to approach questions of meaning and existence through both philosophical concepts and the framework developed within Logotherapy and Existential Analysis.

In our sessions, we can explore the ideas of Viktor Frankl, the foundations of Logotherapy and Existential Analysis, existential philosophy, meaning-centered perspectives, and philosophical questions related to freedom, responsibility, values, purpose, suffering, and human existence.

Depending on your interests, we can focus on a particular concept, philosophical question, book or text, or follow a more structured introduction to Logotherapy and Existential Analysis. We can also compare different philosophical perspectives and examine how concepts such as meaning, freedom, responsibility, values, mortality, and existential choice have been approached across different traditions.

You do not need any previous knowledge of philosophy, Logotherapy, or Existential Analysis. Sessions can be introductory or more advanced depending on your background and interests. The aim is to create a thoughtful and intellectually engaging space for learning, reflection, and philosophical dialogue.

These sessions are educational and discussion-based. They are not psychotherapy, psychiatric care, medical treatment, or a substitute for professional mental health services.

Block period coming up?? If you are struggling to understand a difficult philosophical text, organise your ideas for an essay, or express a complex argument clearly: I am happy to help!

I am a PhD Candidate in Political Philosophy, and I enjoy working through complex ideas, understanding how arguments fit together, and finding ways to express them clearly. If you want to feel more confident in your university work and need one-on-one guidance, I'd like to share these skills with you.

Together, we can work on:
- Text analysis: philosophical papers and books can be tricky. We can unpack them and work step-by-step on identifying the main arguments and understanding the key concepts behind them.
- Essay structure and academic writing: do you have lots of ideas but don’t know how to organise them? Finding the right words isn’t always easy. We can work together to define a clear direction for your essay, structure your arguments and ensure your ideas flow naturally from one point to the next.
- Academic discussion: whether you’re preparing for a seminar, an oral exam or simply want to feel more confident debating ideas, we can practise explaining your point of view, responding to objections and critically engaging with other perspectives.

Every student is different, and I like to adapt our lessons to what you need most: don't hesitate to reach out and share your goals!
Naturally, you can bring your own texts, readings, essay questions, or drafts, so we can work directly on the material you're studying at university. During the lesson, we'll discuss your ideas, work through examples, and tackle any questions or difficulties that come up.

Lessons take place either online or in Groningen -- either in a café, at the Forum, or on campus!

Soy psicóloga y docente, y acompaño a estudiantes que quieren aprender a estudiar mejor y con menos estrés. No solo repasamos contenidos: como psicóloga sé por qué un estudiante no retiene, se bloquea antes de un examen o pierde la motivación, y trabajo sobre eso.

En las clases trabajamos:
• Hábitos y rutinas de estudio adaptados a cada estudiante.
• Organización del tiempo y planificación antes de los exámenes.
• Comprensión lectora, toma de apuntes y estrategias de memoria.
• Manejo de la ansiedad ante los exámenes, motivación y constancia.
• Apoyo en ciencias sociales, filosofía, ética y redacción en español (primaria, ESO y bachillerato).
• Psicología a nivel universitario: psicología general, evolutiva, psicopatología, metodología de la investigación y acompañamiento en trabajos de fin de grado.

Experiencia: he diseñado e impartido un módulo formativo completo y he coordinado académicamente un programa con más de 100 estudiantes, con seguimiento individual a cada uno. También he trabajado con niños, incluidos niños con trastornos del neurodesarrollo, y con sus familias.

Cómo son las clases: empezamos con un diagnóstico de cómo estudia el alumno y qué le cuesta, y a partir de ahí armamos un plan con objetivos claros. Doy seguimiento del progreso y comparto material de apoyo propio. Clases por videollamada (Zoom o Google Meet) con horario adaptado a España.

También doy clases de:
• Canva: diseño de presentaciones, trabajos escolares, infografías y piezas para redes sociales.
• Uso de la inteligencia artificial para niños y adolescentes: cómo usarla de forma segura y responsable para estudiar, investigar y crear, sin que haga las tareas por ellos.
• Psicología: clases y refuerzo para estudiantes de bachillerato y de universidad.
• Artes manuales y manualidades: actividades creativas que desarrollan la motricidad fina, la concentración y la paciencia.

Do you sometimes feel trapped in anxiety, frustration, anger, or overthinking? Do you wish you could respond to difficult situations with greater calm and clarity?

In this class, we will explore how emotions arise, how they influence our thoughts and behavior, and how we can develop a healthier relationship with them.

Drawing on insights from modern psychology, mindfulness, and contemplative traditions, we will combine practical exercises with reflection and self-discovery.

What you will learn:

Recognize and understand your emotional patterns.

Manage stress, anxiety, anger, and overwhelming feelings.

Develop emotional awareness without suppressing your feelings.

Use mindfulness and body-based techniques to restore inner balance.

Respond more consciously instead of reacting automatically.

Cultivate self-compassion, resilience, and emotional stability.

My approach

I believe emotional regulation is not about controlling or eliminating emotions. It is about understanding them, learning from them, and developing the freedom to choose how we respond.

My approach combines my academic background in cognitive science with an interest in meditation, Buddhist philosophy, and the relationship between mind and body.

➤ In parallel, from the first session, once the key points are better understood / assimilated, and the objectives gradually defined, tackle, based on your daily life / your experience, the art of sexuality and its subtleties, while valuing the complexity of sexuality and not its complications.

► My mission: to help you understand, analyze, discover and discover yourself to better enjoy yourself, while gaining self-confidence & acting in order to no longer be limited by your beliefs.

➤ If the discretion and confidentiality of the coach are essential, it is therefore a question of offering a tailor-made program / training, following an initial 'diagnosis'.

► These sessions can, for example, deal with how to regain confidence and make you reconnect with a complex but not complicated, subtle but not tangled sexuality, in short fulfilled while understanding the key elements of your own psychology and that of your partner (... ). But also how to strengthen your sexual charisma to unlock your potential and take pleasure.

➤ Objective here again: to introduce concrete techniques / methods which make it possible to communicate easily, in a fluid, efficient and always natural way, while mastering situations.

➤ Non-verbal language, sexualization and avoidance of the friend zone (...): the objective being to demystify these themes in theory and in practice.

➤ Coaching is based on precise questioning techniques, helping the person being supported to find a solution to a problem. At the end of each session, the coachee will master new ways of thinking, actions to accomplish and will have better motivation. Depending on the clients' expectations, the coach can suggest other approaches.

➤ So what do the first individual coaching sessions look like? First, a first exploratory contact during which your expectations are examined, the nature of the request and the context are evaluated, a 'diagnosis' is discussed, taking into account your difficulties, your needs, your objective.
Then, it is a question of developing a precise procedure and proposing lines of work. A relationship of trust is gradually established through a benevolent alchemy, where listening, empathy and the absence of judgment are central.

➤ Thus, after having carried out together an initial assessment of the situation, a kind of inventory, it is a question of determining the objectives to be reached, the feelings and the questions related to the situation as well as proposing actions to achieve your goal, resolve constraining situations that stand in your way, using tools that will be offered to you according to your situation to get out of your comfort zone and change your perspective.

➤ The guide then asks questions aimed at exploring solutions aimed at achieving the objective, through experiments and exercises. Through various tools (drawing, role playing, metaphor, visualization, etc.), this questioning helps to change perspective, get out of an impasse in order to explore various options that you might not have thought of. this way, based on tools and experience. For example, it could be a new way of thinking about difficulties or another approach to identifying and considering resolving conflicts or a progression in terms of personal development or in terms of a career focusing always on the development of personal resources and self-knowledge.
At the start of the next meeting, the coachee begins with a summary of the activations and the evolution of the state from the last meeting. This step makes it possible to have an evaluation of the positive points and those which are less so in order to readjust the set strategy.

➤ Concretely, ONE SESSION = SOLUTIONS / proposals / concrete suggestions to put into practice for the next session in order to overcome blockages or improve self-knowledge.

Note that during the videoconference session, all the notes are transcribed in the chat so that you can access them at any time when you wish.

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.

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.

Philosophy and Psychology for Adults: Thinking, Understanding, and Getting to Know Yourself Better

Have you ever wondered why you make certain decisions, what you really want from your life, or what meaning some experiences that have marked you have?

This class arises precisely from those questions.

This isn't your typical philosophy or psychology class, and you don't need any prior knowledge. It's a space to pause, reflect, and discuss the questions we all ask ourselves at some point in our lives, but rarely find the time to address.

Through philosophy, psychology, and other related disciplines, we will explore topics such as self-knowledge, relationships, freedom, fear, happiness, decision-making, identity, the meaning of life, our beliefs, and the great questions that accompany us as human beings.

The idea isn't to give you ready-made answers. On the contrary: it's about learning to ask better questions and finding your own answers.

The sessions will be dynamic and participatory, combining explanation

Explore questions of meaning, freedom, responsibility, values, choice, suffering, identity, mortality, and existence through Logotherapy, Existential Analysis, and philosophical inquiry.

My background includes advanced training in Logotherapy and Existential Analysis, alongside academic studies in Philosophy, Archaeology, and Comparative Literature. This interdisciplinary background allows me to approach questions of meaning and existence through both philosophical concepts and the framework developed within Logotherapy and Existential Analysis.

In our sessions, we can explore the ideas of Viktor Frankl, the foundations of Logotherapy and Existential Analysis, existential philosophy, meaning-centered perspectives, and philosophical questions related to freedom, responsibility, values, purpose, suffering, and human existence.

Depending on your interests, we can focus on a particular concept, philosophical question, book or text, or follow a more structured introduction to Logotherapy and Existential Analysis. We can also compare different philosophical perspectives and examine how concepts such as meaning, freedom, responsibility, values, mortality, and existential choice have been approached across different traditions.

You do not need any previous knowledge of philosophy, Logotherapy, or Existential Analysis. Sessions can be introductory or more advanced depending on your background and interests. The aim is to create a thoughtful and intellectually engaging space for learning, reflection, and philosophical dialogue.

These sessions are educational and discussion-based. They are not psychotherapy, psychiatric care, medical treatment, or a substitute for professional mental health services.

Block period coming up?? If you are struggling to understand a difficult philosophical text, organise your ideas for an essay, or express a complex argument clearly: I am happy to help!

I am a PhD Candidate in Political Philosophy, and I enjoy working through complex ideas, understanding how arguments fit together, and finding ways to express them clearly. If you want to feel more confident in your university work and need one-on-one guidance, I'd like to share these skills with you.

Together, we can work on:
- Text analysis: philosophical papers and books can be tricky. We can unpack them and work step-by-step on identifying the main arguments and understanding the key concepts behind them.
- Essay structure and academic writing: do you have lots of ideas but don’t know how to organise them? Finding the right words isn’t always easy. We can work together to define a clear direction for your essay, structure your arguments and ensure your ideas flow naturally from one point to the next.
- Academic discussion: whether you’re preparing for a seminar, an oral exam or simply want to feel more confident debating ideas, we can practise explaining your point of view, responding to objections and critically engaging with other perspectives.

Every student is different, and I like to adapt our lessons to what you need most: don't hesitate to reach out and share your goals!
Naturally, you can bring your own texts, readings, essay questions, or drafts, so we can work directly on the material you're studying at university. During the lesson, we'll discuss your ideas, work through examples, and tackle any questions or difficulties that come up.

Lessons take place either online or in Groningen -- either in a café, at the Forum, or on campus!

Soy psicóloga y docente, y acompaño a estudiantes que quieren aprender a estudiar mejor y con menos estrés. No solo repasamos contenidos: como psicóloga sé por qué un estudiante no retiene, se bloquea antes de un examen o pierde la motivación, y trabajo sobre eso.

En las clases trabajamos:
• Hábitos y rutinas de estudio adaptados a cada estudiante.
• Organización del tiempo y planificación antes de los exámenes.
• Comprensión lectora, toma de apuntes y estrategias de memoria.
• Manejo de la ansiedad ante los exámenes, motivación y constancia.
• Apoyo en ciencias sociales, filosofía, ética y redacción en español (primaria, ESO y bachillerato).
• Psicología a nivel universitario: psicología general, evolutiva, psicopatología, metodología de la investigación y acompañamiento en trabajos de fin de grado.

Experiencia: he diseñado e impartido un módulo formativo completo y he coordinado académicamente un programa con más de 100 estudiantes, con seguimiento individual a cada uno. También he trabajado con niños, incluidos niños con trastornos del neurodesarrollo, y con sus familias.

Cómo son las clases: empezamos con un diagnóstico de cómo estudia el alumno y qué le cuesta, y a partir de ahí armamos un plan con objetivos claros. Doy seguimiento del progreso y comparto material de apoyo propio. Clases por videollamada (Zoom o Google Meet) con horario adaptado a España.

También doy clases de:
• Canva: diseño de presentaciones, trabajos escolares, infografías y piezas para redes sociales.
• Uso de la inteligencia artificial para niños y adolescentes: cómo usarla de forma segura y responsable para estudiar, investigar y crear, sin que haga las tareas por ellos.
• Psicología: clases y refuerzo para estudiantes de bachillerato y de universidad.
• Artes manuales y manualidades: actividades creativas que desarrollan la motricidad fina, la concentración y la paciencia.

Do you sometimes feel trapped in anxiety, frustration, anger, or overthinking? Do you wish you could respond to difficult situations with greater calm and clarity?

In this class, we will explore how emotions arise, how they influence our thoughts and behavior, and how we can develop a healthier relationship with them.

Drawing on insights from modern psychology, mindfulness, and contemplative traditions, we will combine practical exercises with reflection and self-discovery.

What you will learn:

Recognize and understand your emotional patterns.

Manage stress, anxiety, anger, and overwhelming feelings.

Develop emotional awareness without suppressing your feelings.

Use mindfulness and body-based techniques to restore inner balance.

Respond more consciously instead of reacting automatically.

Cultivate self-compassion, resilience, and emotional stability.

My approach

I believe emotional regulation is not about controlling or eliminating emotions. It is about understanding them, learning from them, and developing the freedom to choose how we respond.

My approach combines my academic background in cognitive science with an interest in meditation, Buddhist philosophy, and the relationship between mind and body.
