    Philosophy Classes with a French-Australian polymath

    I offer classes of Philosophy to students interested in taking them for three main reasons :
    1/ They want to learn more about specific topics out of curiosity. In this case, I would be available to write short essays or articles on topics of their choice.
    2/ They are preparing for the French Baccalaureate or the IB and would want to improve certain aspects of the methodology they are currently using when analysing texts or writing essays and dissertations...
    3/ They want a private lesson on a specific author or concept.

    As a way of background, I have graduated from UCL (University College London) with a highly interdisciplinary Bachelor's degree in Arts and Sciences in June 2021 (First Class Honours) -- as well as from La Sorbonne in June 2022 with two BAs (one in Literature and another in Philosophy). I am currently undertaking a Master of Philosophy at La Sorbonne.

    I make sure to tailor my lessons to the student's needs and am always willing to share my passion with fellow readers and pupils.

    Please feel free to get in touch for any extra information. The price of the session may vary depending on the type of course I am required to organise.

    Extra information

    I can deliver classes both in English and French, as I am fluent in both.
    I will send you a document to ask more information about your expectations, your level and the potential exams you are preparing for.
    I will send Zoom links at the beginning of each classes via email.

    About Me

    I am a patient and passionate teacher. I love helping my students out, listening to what they have to say, sharing ideas with them.

    I believe that, in order to truly make some progress, one must know exactly what skills they want to develop, as well as what their core motivation is to get the work done (in the most enjoyable and constructive way possible).

    It is so important that the student knows where he/she is going, what is expected of him/her and what he can hope to take out of an otherwise solely academic experience. Sometimes, students fail only in reason of lack of confidence in their own skills and capacities, or because they feel like they will never be able to meet the teachers' expectations (which they don't understand or overevaluate). A whole lot of pressure can be taken off a student's shoulders with the right working method.

    Experience / Qualifications

    I have experience with tutoring, mainly with young kids. I have volunteered in English and French schools (Quennessen Institute, Maria Fidelis Convent School), and I have held paid, regular tutoring positions in both countries.

    I was an Intern Consultant at Equal Education (London, UK) between September 2020 and January 2021. I was the team leader and project leader. With the help of my team, we redacted a report aimed at providing recommendations for the design of a digital learning experience, targeted to STEM and LAC students' needs. To do so, we designed a filtering method and an evaluation table in order to assess the educational apps in line with Equal Education's mission and future ambitions.
    Whether the student wants to learn more about French Literature or master the many intricacies of the language, be it solely out of curiosity or in order to improve certain aspects of the methodology he/she uses when analysing texts or writing essays and dissertations (to prepare for the French Baccalaureate, the IB or other)... I would gladly like to offer my help ! I always make sure to tailor my lessons to the student's needs, to meet his/her expectations. I have graduated from UCL (University College London) with a highly interdisciplinary Bachelor degree in Arts and Sciences (back in June 2021, First Class Honours)-- and from La Sorbonne in June 2022 with two Bachelor's degrees (one in Literature and another in Philosophy). I am currently undertaking a Master of Philosophy at La Sorbonne. Please feel free to get in touch for any extra information.

    Political Belief Systems: An Introduction to Ideology
    Everyone who engages with politics (which is to say, everyone) has an ideology. But not everyone is conscious of- let alone consistent in their ideology. In fact, most people’s conscious politics are nothing more than an inconsistent aesthetic. But anyone who has a world they long to see owes it to themselves to at least be self aware of their own ideology, and they should probably also familiarize themselves with others as well. I can help on both fronts. This 10-session class serves as an introduction to the concept of political ideology. We will begin with a brief overview to various major academic theories of ideology, before moving on to a taxonomical survey of different ideological genuses and families, both “thick-centered” ideologies, that is, ideologies with a comprehensive core specific enough that they can stand on their own as it were, such as liberalism, conservatism, socialism, and fascism, and “thin centered” ideologies, which have much broader and hence much less specific cores, and hence must attach themselves to other thick centered host ideologies in order to fully manifest themselves, such as populism, nationalism, feminism, and ecologism.

    Philosophical and/or Sociological Theory: Tailored Lessons and Guided Study
    This class offers personalized instruction in philosophical and/or sociological theory, suited both for students seeking academic support and for individuals with a general interest in a philosophical topic. Sessions are designed according to the student’s goals, whether it’s clarifying course material, preparing written assignments, or exploring theoretical texts independently. I am currently completing a Master of Arts in Philosophy. My areas of specialization include ancient philosophy, early modern philosophy, and phenomenology. I also hold a background in sociology, which allows me to offer interdisciplinary approaches to social theory and critical thought. Sessions can be focused on specific authors or movements (e.g. Plato, Spinoza, feminist theory), or organized thematically around concepts such as love, beauty, perception, or subjectivity. The goal is to foster rigorous but accessible understanding, with attention to both conceptual clarity and historical context.

    How to be Happy: The Science and Philosophy of Happiness
    Are you happy? Hey, my name's Dan, and I want to offer you a course all about exploring what happiness is and how you can achieve it. To do this, we'll be integrating modern scientific research and evidence with millennia of ancient philosophies, belief systems, and cultural insights. By doing this, you get all the wisdom you need and it's all backed by science! This course will give you a new worldview on life to make you happier, wiser, and more self-aware. To do this, we don't just look at happiness- we look at human nature itself, evolution, the human brain, the body, morality, religion, emotions, meaning, self-actualisation, self-transcendence, and much more. All of these topics are explored from scientific and philosophical perspectives, drawing on what the experts and evidence in all these fields are saying. And none of this is abstract: this whole course is all about giving practical advice to help you become the best version of yourself. But unlike other courses on happiness, all that advice is backed by real, trustworthy scientific research: so we know that it all works. This course is for absolutely everyone. Whether you stopped science before GCSEs or chose it as your career, this course has a colossal amount of information that I've integrated from lots of different fields, and can present to you in an easy and friendly way. For more information on the course's structure and what we'll be doing together, just drop me a message. Take care!

    Courses in Philosophy, Ethics and Critical Thinking
    Philosophy 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.
