Owls, Vultures, and Cattle: How Do You Read Those Hieroglyphs? 8 session course

From 18 C$ /h

This 8 session course (60 minutes each session) has three interrelated goals: have students understand the basics of Middle Egyptian hieroglyphs, make students aware of the variety of reputable non-print/ print sources that are out there for Egyptology/ ancient history overall, and enable students to be able to go into a museum or exhibit of Egyptian artifacts and translate common phrases of five fold royal titulary, pronouns, Offering Formula, etc. In sum I want students to be able to apply to a so-called ‘dead language” real world examples. This will be accomplished through discussion, lectures, and relevant PowerPoint slides. I will use PowerPoint slides to show students examples from real life objects that match up with the grammatical lesson theme for that week. Keeping in mind that different students have different learning styles and methods to have content ‘click’, for most of the weeks I have also put optional links (to web sources or youtube videos) that either restate and/or give further info for that week's grammar theme. Depending on student preference and desires multiple choice quizzes are also possibilities. I will teach hieroglyphic words/phrases having to do with monarchy/kingship, members of a family, masculine and feminine versions of words, and words/phrases commonly found on private/royal stelae that concern offerings to deceased. Just like my other offered courses, students can choose to take all eight or just select the themes that draw them in the most. We do not have to follow the order listed in the content breakdown.

About Me

I have a BA from Sweet Briar College where I majored in History and minored in Archaeology. In 2019 I received an MA from Tufts in History and Museum Studies. I traveled to Egypt in 2011 and was able to see a fair amount of the archaeological sites on my bucket list! In 2024 I hope to begin a PhD or MA program in Egyptology (my ultimate aim is to be an Egyptologist)! While my ultimate goal is to bring narratives and stories to light that tend to receive less focus, I design my client sessions and visual aids around client requests and what they most want to learn about!

My online classes focus on Ancient History and Egyptology in particular! I have taught most of the courses offered on my profile online for the Osher Life Long Learning Institute program branch through Tufts University. I believe that the study of history should be made fun and engaging for all students, irrespective of background, age, economic circumstances, etc. My one hour teaching sessions move beyond the presentation of history as a series of boring facts and figures with one 'right' answer and include primary sources, maps, and online sources where appropriate.

I incorporate both narratives and stories that tend to receive less focus in addition to the achievements (and shortcomings) of white cis men for different time periods. I also try to place historical figures and events within their greater context. For instance, the decipherment of hieroglyphics and the Rosetta Stone is so much richer than a lot of people know. The larger story involves the start of European advances into Egypt, imperialistic competition between France and England, and the understudied attempts of medieval Arabic scholars in hieroglyphic decipherment. Sessions on classical Greece and Athens could include direct democracy in Athens and the general historical trajectory of the city. Other options include the limits of that direct democracy for women and slaves.

FAQ's
1. When was I bitten by the 'history bug'?
Essentially, as far back as I can remember I have been fascinated with ancient history and ancient Egypt in particular. 2011 travel to Egypt and Greece (for undergraduate study abroad) only solidified that further.
2. What is my main historical focus in my teaching sessions?
Prehistory, beginning with the Paleolithic and ending with the 'fall' of the Western Roman Empire in 476 AD.
3. Within that framework, what historical periods/ cultures am I strongest on?
I know the most about the Paleolithic, the Neolithic (when farming and animal domestication occurred in different parts of the world), the ancient Near East (roughly speaking modern day Iran/Iraq/Syria, Turkey), ancient Egypt, ancient Mediterranean/ ancient Greece/Rome/, and archaeology.
4. How do I structure my teaching sessions?
You as the client tell me whether you want to go through all the sessions for each course or selected ones. More generally, you as the client tell me what culture/ period of time/subject focus you are most interested in, and I craft a series of teaching sessions that focus on what you most want to learn within that.
5. What would be some hypothetical examples of this?
Say you want to know more about the Romans. I would first ask, do you want to focus on the Roman Republic, Empire, or both? Next, I would ask if you want a social history focus (the religion, laws, general beliefs), or a political focus (important battles, personalities, etc.) Say you came to me wanting to know more about the ancient Egyptians (a very long lived culture). I would first try to pinpoint your general focus: "pharaonic Egypt"? (i.e the 3000+ years of Egypt's prehistory and independent statehood), the Greco-Roman period?, both?.
6. Do I have experience in online teaching (particularly for adult learners?)
Yes! In the final year of my graduate program at Tufts, I became a Study Leader for the Osher Life Learning Institute branch (post graduation, I have remained a Study Leader for Osher). Of the more than five courses I have taught, enrollment has regularly exceeded three, including some returnees!
7. When am I available?
Mondays, Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays.
8. Do I know any ancient languages that would make a visit to a museum even better ?
Yes, within this last year I have become competent in Middle Egyptian hieroglyphs.
9. Based on client preference, am I able to work visual aids/ multimedia into my teaching?
Yes! My starting visual aid tool is an optional personalized Power Point for each session. From there, depending on client subject matter and themes, relevant youtube videos and scholarly websites are possibilities.

Hominids, Farming, and Amazing Cultures From Our Past: Ancient History from the Neolithic to Augustus, Ruler of Rome, 8 Lesson Course

18 C$ /h

This 8 session (60 minutes each session) course is an overview of ancient history. The course begins with an overview of prehistory and will end (roughly) with the first emperor of Rome. By the course's end I hope to have given students an overview of the questions and debates facing scholarship in ancient history. Students can choose to either take all eight or have me teach the parts that they are most interested in (i.e just the Ancient Near East, or Ancient Greece, etc). We do not have to follow the order listed in the content breakdown.
Throughout the course I will use maps to talk about the influence geography has played in these cultures and relevant social media clips from Youtube. To illustrate broad patterns, the following three databases will be recuring sources: the world history maps of Thomas Lessman at Historical World Maps - World History Atlas (https://worldhistorymaps.net/), the interactive Map of the Ancient World (https://www.worldhistory.org/map/), and maps from The Timemap of World History ( https://timemaps.com/). I look forward to our explorations together!

Overcome your fears and unlock creative inspiration to finally get to the end of your writing project.

Let yourself be guided and finally realize your dream of writing.

➤ Overcome your fears.
➤ Discover the secret to writing 100% fun and 0% blank pages.
➤ Awaken this writer's flame that has been dormant in you for a long time.
➤ Build unwavering legitimacy and overcome the fear of failure, lack of time and procrastination that keep you from moving forward.

In short, put an end to the fear of writing! Isn't it difficult to be consumed by the desire to write your project and not succeed in doing it? Break forever the insurmountable wall that prevents you from writing today.

It is a matter of combining improvements in form with improvements in substance. For this, the sessions can for example take place according to your needs as follows:
a) Comments / proposals on the text that you will offer me b) Writing exercises based on a statement.
c) A series of precise and pragmatic recommendations and their application through style exercises.

Whether it is a novel, an essay, song lyrics, various texts, a biography or simply a report for professional or school purposes, it is about offering you elements personalized pedagogy:

- Study your text
- Build text, song lyrics etc
- Calmly polish the style
- Research and develop your lexical fields
- Differentiate between writing for oneself and writing for others

All this by combining theory and practice: Writing work from exercises then as part of a personal project.

During the sessions, you are guided in your writing project. The trainer accompanies you and teaches you the preparation method, gives you writing tools and helps you work on your style and your imagination.

The objective is multiple, including a reflection on one's own literary path, an introduction to the basic tools of style work and exercises on description.

Learning objectives:
- Identify your writing path.
- Mobilize your imagination.
- Learn and master the practical writing tools.
- Broaden its reflection on creation and professional and personal writing.
- Create and develop one or more projects.

Trained in a European Grande Ecole & Ivy League University in the United States, specialized and has been working in Europe and North America for more than 16 years in this field, in reputable international institutions , also intervening in forums and conferences.

- Locations: Geneva - Lausanne - Friborg - Neuchâtel - Montreux - Basel - Sion - Sierre - Morges - Bienne. But currently and until further notice, only by videoconference in accordance with national recommendations on Covid.

These sessions, for which you have asked me, also seem to be perfectly unanimous since they arouse a certain enthusiasm (and a certain enthusiasm). Indeed, they have the advantage of face-to-face sessions (ex: quality of the interaction), without its disadvantages (ex: loss of travel time) with additional advantages (ex: the entire session transcribed in writing on the chat). That is why, at your request, I continue to offer this option.

À la carte: evaluated and adapted to each personality.

Learn the methodology in dissertation and document analysis from middle school as well as high school.
This is what is present in History Geography and in the HGGSP specialty, and I offer courses aimed, in addition to helping the learning of courses in these subjects, to put it into practice in an exercise with a built methodology. It is this methodology that I teach, in order to provide the student with independence.
I can also provide homework help in these classes, as well as re-explain and repeat poorly understood course points.
As for speaking in public, it is necessary for the oral exams at the end of high school. I have been part of a debate group for 3 years and have acquired a certain mastery there.
I am a student in high school, in the final year and I already have experience in helping with homework in my high school. I also chose the HGGSP specialty (geopolitics and political science) in second and I obtained my baccalaureate in this subject.

The Arabic writing system may seem challenging at first glance, but in reality, it’s a beautifully structured alphabet that anyone can learn. With the right approach and a bit of dedication, mastering it takes less time than you might think.

In this class, we will learn and memorize the shape of the letters and their correct pronunciation through listening exercises and writing practice. As we explore the alphabet, we will also dive into Arabic culture and traditions, making the learning process both engaging and meaningful.

After years of teaching Arabic, I created this class to help:

Curious learners who want to explore the Arabic alphabet and pronunciation.
Arabic speakers who never had the chance to learn how to write.
Those struggling with the language and looking for a stress-free way to break the ice.

➤Let yourself be guided: your dream of writing can become a reality.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION:
➤Exploring and sharing the pleasure of words, building the stories that inhabit you, developing your expression, deepening your creativity, exploring contemporary writing, proposing a novel, short stories, a life story, an (auto)biography, a fiction, an essay, song lyrics, various texts or simply a report, a thesis, a report for professional or academic purposes... these are among the objectives of these workshops to deepen or initiate writing and realize one's aspirations by prioritizing the pleasure of writing based on elements of personalized pedagogy.

➤Overcome your fears and unlock creative inspiration to finally complete your project.

Let yourself be guided and finally realize your dream of writing.
➤ Overcome your fears
➤ Discover the secret to producing high-quality writing that's 100% enjoyable and 0% writer's block.
➤ Awaken this writer's flame that has been dormant in you for a long time
➤ Build unwavering legitimacy and overcome the fear of failure, lack of time and procrastination that keep you from moving forward.

In short, overcome your fear of writing. Isn't it frustrating to be consumed by the desire to write your project and yet unable to do so? Break down that insurmountable wall that's holding you back.

This involves combining improvements in form with refinements in content. For example, concrete techniques for starting your text and overcoming writer's block, feedback/suggestions on your texts, writing and style exercises based on a prompt, a series of precise/pragmatic recommendations and their implementation.

That is why, if your manuscript is stuck and you don't know how to start or continue it, if you have all the ideas but don't know what form they should take, if you want to save time in the creative process: let's build the architecture of your story together.

Learning objectives include:
• Discover writing, build confidence, let your own literary voice/path emerge, and unleash your imagination
• Studying and constructing a text, song lyrics...
• Calmly refine the style and create consistency between form and content
• Research and develop your vocabulary
• Acquire techniques and know-how to convey your message both clearly and simply
• Differentiate between writing for oneself and writing for others
• Explore your creativity and develop your expression
• To construct a complete story by creating characters, settings, lively scenes...
• Acquire and master practical writing tools, always with a focus on simplicity/simplification and efficiency (both in content and form)
• Discover contemporary writing and diversify your practice
• Acquire narrative techniques to engage in long stories

So, start, resume or finish a piece of writing you have dreamed of for a long time if you want to write but don't know where to start; if you have a story but don't know how to tell it; if you love to write but have lost your inspiration; if you have a manuscript buried in a drawer and you are afraid of failing.

To achieve this, the first step is to unleash your writing and let go: strengthen your imagination, explore your inspiration, and cultivate your originality. Next, turn your weaknesses into a driving force for writing by exploring your wounds to better utilize them and adopt an effective writing method. Finally, master writing techniques and bring characters to life while crafting captivating stories, controlling pacing, and developing suspenseful plots.

All this by combining theory and practical/concrete applications: writing assignments based on exercises and then within the framework of your project.

During the sessions, you will be guided in your writing project. The trainer will support you in your written communication and offer tools, while helping you to work on and/or optimize your style and imagination.

Proofreading, revising, correcting and formatting articles, theses, etc.: these options are also possible.

Furthermore, these sessions allow one to improve one's written communication and to study the different methods to achieve this (email, letter, report, presentation...), both in terms of content and form.

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 the Right is a breath of fresh air. This tutoring program is aimed directly at middle school students who are struggling with the following subjects: French, Mathematics, Science, History, and Languages (English and Spanish).

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 lesson and to help the student feel as comfortable as possible, it is essential to remember 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 of the college, it would be a real pleasure for me to accompany you as best I can on the path to success!

My name is Coraline Parmentier, pianist, composer, author and founder of the Piano Mondo institution for cultures, in Nyon.

I have been writing since primary school, where I began inventing my first stories and writing poems. Writing thus grew with me, long before it took a place in my artistic and professional journey.

I created Piano Mondo based on a conviction: artistic creation should not be confined to a single discipline. While music forms the historical heart of the institution, writing has always been part of my creative world and naturally nourishes my various projects.

Over the years, this practice has developed in various forms and become intertwined with my work as a composer, performer, and cultural project manager. It is in this spirit that Piano Mondo is now opening its **Writing Hub**, in order to share, in turn, the joy of creating, building, and expressing oneself through words.

As with Piano Mondo's music lessons, I favor a personalized approach: each student progresses at their own pace, according to their personality, desires, and goals. The aim is not to force everyone into the same model, but to acquire tools, gain confidence, and gradually develop an expression that reflects who you are.
