Professional profile (approx. 600 words) I am a teacher and educational content creator specializing in the humanities, contemporary culture, and interdisciplinary analysis of the human experience through film, music, philosophy, history, and art. My approach goes beyond traditional teaching, aiming to cultivate a critical, aesthetic, and profound understanding of how we perceive the world. My main area of expertise is European and arthouse cinema, with a particular interest in directors who have transformed cinematic language, such as Ingmar Bergman, Federico Fellini, Andrei Tarkovsky, Jean-Luc Godard, and Michael Haneke. I analyze film not only as entertainment but also as a form of visual thought, capable of expressing complex philosophical, emotional, and social ideas. In my classes, I explore narrative, aesthetics, symbolism, and the relationship between cinema and society. In the musical field, I work from a broad perspective, encompassing everything from classical music (Beethoven, Mahler, Debussy, Bach) to contemporary genres such as alternative rock, shoegaze, and post-rock. Bands like My Bloody Valentine, Slowdive, and Radiohead are part of my analysis, especially regarding sonic texture, emotionality, and atmospheric construction. I also explore the history of rock as a cultural phenomenon and its impact on youth and social identity. Philosophy is another fundamental pillar of my teaching. I focus particularly on Friedrich Nietzsche, his critique of traditional morality, the concept of nihilism, the will to power, and the figure of the Übermensch (superman). Starting with Nietzsche, I connect philosophy with contemporary culture, film, and psychology, generating debates about the meaning of existence, individual freedom, and the construction of value in the modern world. In art history, I cover everything from the Renaissance to contemporary art, paying particular attention to how artistic movements reflect social and intellectual changes. I analyze works not only in terms of their technique, but also their historical, political, and symbolic context. I also explore the relationship between visual art, film, and photography as languages that engage in dialogue with one another. In general history and the humanities, I work with a cross-disciplinary approach that connects historical processes with the evolution of thought, culture, and social structures. I am particularly interested in how philosophical, artistic, and political ideas influence one another over time. Psychology is another key area, focusing on the psychology of art, perception, emotions, and identity. I explore how film, music, and culture shape the human mind and how individuals construct meaning from aesthetic and social experiences. Although it may seem like a different field, I also incorporate football as a cultural and social phenomenon, analyzing its symbolic dimension, its impact on collective identity and its relationship with contemporary narrative, passion and community building. Overall, my approach is interdisciplinary: I seek to connect film with philosophy, music with psychology, history with art, and popular culture with critical thinking. My goal is to help students develop a deeper, more analytical, and more sensitive perspective on the world, beyond the superficial consumption of culture.

Learn and improve to speak Italian with a real Florentine (Paris)
Gemma
rating star
rating green star
Gemma was a wonderful teacher. Her and I walked around Florence while she was simultaneously teaching me Italian. Her easy going and positive attitude made learning fun while also being very substantial. Gemma is super patient, and after the second day I could construct longer, more complicated sentences. I had mentioned some struggles I have had within schooling where I struggled with pronouns and prepositions, and by the first day I could do it easy no problem due to her explanations being very good. Overall I Gemma is a very good tutor and I highly recommend her.

Chinese art history from 5th century to contemporary (Uccle)
Penny
rating star
rating green star
Penny is very professional and extremely knowledgeable about Chinese Art History. The lesson is perfectly prepared with good documentation but also with the flexibility to branch out in neighbouring subjects or drill down deeper on certain topics. The presentation is very entertaining and clearly benefits from Penny's experience and eductation in China. Enjoyable and profound.
