Philosophy and Theology at Pre-U and A level (taught in English)

From 51 C$ /h

This class is aimed at students who are studying Philosophy and Theology at Pre-u (Cambridge) or A level, however, if prospective students would like to learn this subject at a more simplified level I am able to do that also. While this class is aimed at preparing the student for their final examinations, my aim is to also imbue love and interest in some of the most interesting questions asked by mankind such as; what is the nature of reality? Is morality subjective or objective? and do we really have free will? During this online class, students will also develop their argumentative/essay writing skills while also enhancing their general ability to think critically. If you are already well accustomed to this course, I can help you develop your understanding of the topic further, offering services such as how to plan a good essay as well as suggestions for further reading.

Extra information

We will be working from set texts for which there will be online pdf versions available.
Considering the current pandemic, these classes will be conducted online using either "zoom" or "go to meeting" until restrictions are lifted.

About Me

My favourite part of teaching is when I'm able to have an open and intellectual discussion with my students. I see discussion as the ultimate way of developing one's understanding of any humanities subject, especially Philosophy, as this gives the student the opportunity to express their own opinion. In doing so and defending it, this allows them to gain a wider understanding of the strengths and weaknesses of their argument and to also consider other perspectives which they may not have considered before. This is all in the spirit of coming closer to a better understanding of the truth which for me is the fundamental purpose of philosophy.

Learn more about God as you go through your day. Learn about who he is, Who he created you to be and how you can work each day to better understand the bible and live in the way God called and created us to live.

Daily Devotions, Q&A and confidence building (because you cannot love others the way you are called to, if you cannot first love yourself) and more.

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.

Hello!

My name is Lokesh. I hold a postgraduate degree in Sanskrit Sahitya and have a deep passion for teaching this beautiful language. I was ranked No. 1 in the All India Arthashastra Shalaka competition, and I have completed the Dakshina Bharata Sabha exams up to the Rashtrabhasha level. I've also progressed through three levels of Chittoor exams.

Currently, I work as a Sanskrit teacher at Ramaratnam School, Mylapore, where I enjoy helping students discover the richness of Sanskrit. In addition to language expertise, I also have knowledge of programming languages like C, Python, HTML, and CSS.

I am happy to teach Sanskrit to students of all levels whether you're a beginner, a school student, or simply someone curious to explore this ancient language. I focus on making lessons engaging, structured, and tailored to each student's needs.

I look forward to learning with you!

My name is Or, and I am a graduate of Zhejiang Chinese Medical University (ZCMU) in Hangzhou, China, one of the leading institutions for Traditional Chinese Medicine. Over the past five years of study, I focused on Chinese herbs, acupuncture, and Chinese philosophy, guided by experienced professors. Alongside my studies, I volunteered with oncology patients and children, an experience that deepened both my compassion and my commitment to holistic care. I also worked for four years as a Teaching Assistant, helping students understand complex TCM concepts with clarity and structure. Today, I run my own clinic, where I guide patients with Chinese medicine, and I also work in two companies as a Shiatsu practitioner, bringing hands-on experience to complement my academic background. I am passionate about sharing authentic knowledge of Chinese medicine in a way that is professional, supportive, and easy to understand — whether for students, healthcare professionals, or anyone curious about TCM.

Through my courses, students will acquire a solid command of the Italian language, improving their grammar, written expression, comprehension, and text analysis skills. The courses are suitable for both beginners and students wishing to deepen their knowledge or prepare for exams.
I also offer support in philosophy, helping students understand key authors, schools of thought, and fundamental concepts through clear explanations tailored to their level.
To facilitate learning, I prepare personalized course materials, summary sheets, diagrams, concept maps, and various other worksheets. These tools allow students to effectively organize their revision, better understand the concepts studied, and develop an independent and rigorous study method. Each lesson is tailored to the student's needs and objectives to promote their progress and success.

Together we will prepare a lesson to discover or reinforce previously acquired knowledge.
The idea is to learn effectively through privileged dialogue, a space where all questions are welcome.
We will focus on a particular school of thought or philosopher in order to be prepared by the end of the year!

Philosophy isn't just about memorizing authors and dates; it's about learning to think, argue, and connect ideas. If you struggle to understand Plato or Kant, find yourself bored in class, or need to improve your grades for university entrance exams, I can help!

Welcome to a comprehensive, student-tailored approach to understanding philosophy and ethics. As a holder of a Bachelor's degree in Philosophy and a current Master's student in Applied Ethics, I help students navigate complex theoretical frameworks and apply critical thinking to real-world issues. With over five years of experience as a tutor in Poland, including time spent teaching directly in a school environment, I bring a strong pedagogical foundation to every session, ensuring abstract concepts are clear, structured, and practical.
In our lessons, we will cover a wide range of topics customized to your specific goals. We can dive into core philosophy and epistemology by exploring fundamental texts and primary sources, or break down ethical theories such as utilitarianism, deontology, and virtue ethics to see how they apply to modern life. We can also explore contemporary socio-political debates, bioethics, technology, and AI ethics, which happens to be a personal passion of mine, without losing sight of the broader philosophical discipline.
Beyond studying theoretical content, I place a strong emphasis on practical academic skills and critical thinking. Drawing from my background as a school teacher and private tutor, I focus on helping you evaluate complex viewpoints objectively, spot logical fallacies, structure philosophical papers, and refine your overall argumentation. Lessons are fully adaptable to your learning style and academic level, whether you are an absolute beginner looking for a clear introduction or an advanced student seeking in-depth feedback on your work.
