Preparation for competitive examinations (political sciences and preparatory classes)

From 70 C$ /h

I prepare for competitive exams (written and oral) such as political science or the tests to enter an engineering school. They require a specific culture and for engineering schools to know how to use the three works on the program in an essay; for political science to know how to use an essay in a more specialized orientation (in particular sociology)

Extra information

The works on the program (when there are any), I use Skype and I write as I go along what can help the person preparing for this or that competition.

Location

Online from France

About Me

I am an atypical person who started her career as a training engineer (specializing in human resources) then as a "European development agent". I got tired of all that and changed direction. Since I loved philosophy as much as literature, I prepared for both competitive exams, I passed the modern literature exam and consoled myself by preparing a philosophy thesis that I defended before leaving for Qatar, then Morocco, then Cambodia. I have taught at almost all levels, from learning to read to the firefighter competition. I like novelty. When the French program became absolutely poor, and it became impossible to correct the slightest copy of philosophy, for lack of the slightest philosophical idea, I resigned. But since I still love teaching, I give private lessons to those who need it and I teach them what we most often no longer teach them in our schools. Understand a text, qualify it, situate it, interpret it correctly, comment on it. And write an essay that stands up.

Education

Three degrees (psychology, ethnology, sociology), a master's degree and a DEA in anthropology, a DESS in management, Capes in literature and a thesis in philosophy. I resigned from the National Education system in 2017. I write books, including a detective novel.

Experience / Qualifications

I taught in the field of combating illiteracy up to preparation for competitive examinations. And I ensured the staff training plan at the Mercure hotel in Doha Qatar.
I created the website "alternativephilolettres"
I was in charge of TD at the Jules Verne University of Amiens (in human sciences), I provided French training for BTS sales and tourism for Interfor (Amiens) and I developed a history of ideas course in an engineering school.
Then I joined the national education system. Two years preparing future primary school teachers, then back to secondary school where I went on an expatriation to Qatar, Morocco and then Cambodia, studying philosophy and French/French as a second language.
Back in France, I took the L stream in a Catholic high school in Fréjus, and I resigned to write books and take care of my association and the children of the Cambodian village where I had founded a center.

Preparation for the French baccalaureate exams

60 C$ /h

Experienced teacher, certified in literature, (author of detective novels) effectively prepares for the baccalaureate exams. Simple, practical methods, which alternate general culture and the art of writing. I work on baccalaureate past papers and on supports. I have taught in France, Morocco, Qatar and Cambodia. I am used to varied audiences.

Trained professor offers assistance in writing master's theses in the fields of literature and human sciences

70 C$ /h

Writing a dissertation is a difficult exercise, but with method, you can do it. There is the work of writing, but there is also the work of "composition": making a plan, establishing a clearly defined subject, a reference and/or specialized bibliography, chaptering, accepting unstable areas, learning not to freeze a plan too quickly, working while accepting remodeling... All this can be learned, and it is by doing that one becomes a blacksmith.
I can help you where you need it or for the whole thing.

An engineer by training, I have been supporting students of all levels, in mathematics and beyond, for 10 years.

My classes aren't just about explaining formulas: I strive to convey a work method, self-confidence, and a positive approach to learning. Together, we'll work on gaining a deeper understanding of mathematical concepts, but also on becoming more organized, managing stress, and progressing independently.

👉 What I propose:

- Clear explanations adapted to your level

- Practical and structured exercises

- Helps with memorization and organization

- Stress management and mental preparation before exams

- Regular and personalized monitoring

It's September, the start of the new school year: the perfect time to get off to a good start and give yourself the best possible chance. Getting support now will allow you to approach the year with confidence, with a solid foundation and an effective working method.

My goal? For you to succeed in math and gain peace of mind, so you can progress in school and beyond.

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.

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.

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 "Le Droit" is a breath of fresh air. This private tutoring program is aimed directly at high school students, undergraduate and graduate law students, and more generally at anyone intrigued by the beauty of legal language (you'll discover it soon enough).
Moreover, being currently preparing for the entrance exam to the National School of Magistrates, a solid mastery of legal fundamentals as well as the methods required in legal studies remains.

🎓 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, science, history and languages).
Regarding the law, and to clarify my point, the teaching that was provided covered and still covers a broad spectrum within the legal field, namely:
- Legal methodology (essential for success: legal essay, practical case study, case commentary and summary note)
- Civil Law (fundamental concepts, contract law, family law, tort law, property law, civil procedure, etc.)
- Criminal Law (fundamental concepts, special criminal law, criminal procedure, criminal law of property and business)
- Administrative Law (fundamental concepts, review of the vast body of existing case law on the subject)
- Labour Law (history of trade unionism, study of the employment contract)
- Public Law (Constitutional Law, Law of Local Authorities, Law of Social Welfare and Action, Constitutional Litigation)
- European Union Law (primary and secondary law, European Union litigation)
- The Law of English-speaking and Spanish-speaking countries
- ... and other subjects directly related to the program of the entrance examination to the National School of the Judiciary.

👋 What about my teaching approach, you might ask?
Beyond this desire for authenticity, it seems particularly crucial to dismantle the prejudices that poison the perception of legal studies. Law can then, and in my humble opinion must, be considered within the delicate balance between discipline and flexibility, between rigor and adaptability.

💬 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, Madam/Sir, it would be a real pleasure for me to support you as best I can on your path to success because, as its name suggests: you have the Right 😉

Do you want to improve your skills? Are you looking for effective help with your homework or your children's? Do you want to work in a calm, focused environment with specific goals? You've come to the right place! My name is Anna, and I'm a Political Science student at the University of Rouen. Passionate about teaching and education, I offer personalized tutoring for students from elementary school (CP) to middle school (3ème), primarily in French and History-Geography. For high school students, I also offer methodology courses for subjects like History, Geography, Geopolitics, and Political Science (HGGSP) and oral exam preparation.
To make your daily life easier, I also offer occasional babysitting services for children from 5 years old (ideal for combining end-of-day care and learning).

To guarantee a breakthrough and consistent progress, each session is structured in a fluid manner:

Step 1: Understanding - We review the lesson together to ensure that the basics and essential concepts are fully understood.
Step 2: Apply – The lesson is broken down through concrete examples and guided application exercises. Step 3: Develop independence – The student completes exercises independently, followed by an interactive peer review to understand any errors.

Because we learn best when we feel confident, I am committed to providing a calm, studious, relaxed, and supportive environment. No stress, no judgment: we progress together, at the student's pace, to boost their grades and self-confidence!

My approach follows a common structured logic:
define the objective → diagnose the current situation → identify constraints → select the appropriate methodology → build the plan → execute → monitor → evaluate → communicate the result → improve

We can work with your research proposal, thesis plan, supervisor feedback, conceptual framework, questionnaire, methodology chapter, project schedule, WBS, risk register, MS Project or Primavera file, CV, job description, interview questions, or professional-development challenge.

I do not simply provide generic templates or ready-made answers. I help you understand why a method or strategy fits your situation, what assumptions it depends on, how to evaluate alternatives, how to detect weaknesses, and how to defend the final decision clearly.

Academic and professional integrity are essential. I provide teaching, methodological guidance, critical feedback, analytical support, planning, coaching, and supervision-style mentoring. I do not write assessed theses or dissertations, complete examinations, fabricate research results, or misrepresent a student’s or professional’s experience.

My goal is to help you become the genuine owner of your research, project, or professional path—able to explain your decisions, manage complexity, communicate clearly, and move forward independently.

School tends to reduce success to one thing: results. Memorizing a lesson, getting the grade, then forgetting everything a week after the exam.
But learning is much more than that.

What matters to me is passing on skills that last. Learning how to learn. Developing a real work methodology. Knowing how to find information, understand it, analyze it, and build a sound argument. These are the skills that make the difference, not only in studies, but in everything that comes after.

My teaching method? I don't give the answers; I ask the right questions so that the student can find them for themselves, and I start with concrete examples before moving on to theory. Because a concept that is truly understood is never forgotten.

What I want to avoid above all else? Dependence. Many students wait for their teacher to provide the solution. My goal is for my students to gain autonomy and confidence, so they no longer need me.

I begin my support with a diagnostic session in order to fully understand the cognitive profile of my students.
If you are interested, contact me!

Because a year of PASS is not just about knowledge.
I don't teach medicine to students. I help them and/or their parents to create the conditions to maximize their chances of success.

After accompanying my daughter throughout her PASS year at Paris Cité University, I realized that success also depended on impeccable organization, rigorous monitoring, sustained motivation, and effective management of all the constraints surrounding this extraordinary year.

I do not teach medicine.
My role is to allow students to dedicate 100% of their energy to learning, while I help them structure, organize, and manage their academic year in the best possible conditions. I cannot guarantee success, but while prep courses provide the foundation, practice, and rankings, I offer support, personalized organization tailored to each student, and feedback on all aspects of this challenging year.

I propose two options for discussion.

Annual "PASS Piloting" package:
- Initial setup (3 hours): establishing the organization, the monitoring tools, and the physical work organization
- Weekly meeting (30 to 45 minutes)
- Available via WhatsApp/SMS for quick questions
- Administrative assistance
- Adjusting the organization before each key period (start of S1, start of S2, minor if UPC, start of oral exam preparation)
- Debriefing of mock exams, competitions, and adaptation of strategy

Annual "Pilotage PASS" package: Premium version (in addition to the classic version)
- Greater availability
- Exchanges with parents (6 times a year)
- Adaptation of the schedule (2/3 adaptations during the semester depending on key periods: before mock exams, revision period before exams)
- Precise stacking tool (weekly progress tracking, progress monitoring, simulation of competition results)
- Handling administrative tasks for the student
- Possible travel to Paris

Optional:
- Creation of the weekly schedule
- Exchange session during revision periods
- Monitoring the availability of courses / errata / news / important information from the university and/or preparatory school
- Another need to be studied (case of students without parents nearby for example).
