Meditation is a skill that can help guide you through life's ups and downs. Learning to calm the mind and body then use skills to examine the experiences we have in order to come to new understandings of how we suffer. We will learn basic mindfulness of the breath and bodily sensations, how to bring up loving-kindness and compassion for oneself and others plus learning the basic tenets of Buddhism including impermanence, unsatisfactoriness and not-self or emptiness. I was an ordained Buddhist nun in the Theravada tradition for 11 years and continue to practise this path daily. My teacher was Ajahn Sumedho (senior student of Ajahn Chah) who gave his blessing for me to continue teaching out of the monastery. Guidance will be given so that you will be able to foster a regular meditation practise navigating any obstacles along the way in a way that enriches understanding.

Preparing for the SAT, GRE, or GMAT math sections and want to stop losing points on problems you actually know how to solve? This course is built around one goal: getting you the highest possible score on test day, in the shortest time, with the least wasted effort. I'm a State Engineer (IAV Hassan II) with a CPGE background in Mathematics and Physics — the most rigorous math preparation track in the Moroccan system. The math on these standardized tests is well within that level, which means I don't just know how to solve these problems — I know multiple ways to solve them, and I'll teach you the fastest and most reliable one for exam conditions. What's covered — by exam: 1-SAT Math - Heart of Algebra (linear equations, systems, inequalities) - Problem Solving & Data Analysis (ratios, percentages, statistics) - Passport to Advanced Math (quadratics, functions, polynomials) - Additional Topics (geometry, trigonometry, complex numbers) - Calculator vs. no-calculator strategy 2-GRE Quantitative Reasoning - Arithmetic and number properties - Algebra and coordinate geometry - Data interpretation and statistics - Quantitative comparison strategy - Time management under pressure 3-GMAT Quantitative / Focus Edition - Problem Solving and Data Sufficiency - Data Insights section - Elimination strategies for tricky wording - Pacing and guessing strategy My teaching approach: Standardized math tests are not about being good at math — they're about recognizing patterns, avoiding traps, and managing time. I teach you both: the actual math and the test-taking strategy that separates a 650 from a 750 on the GRE, or a 680 from a 780 on the SAT. Every session is personalized. We start with a diagnostic — I identify exactly which question types are costing you the most points — then we build sessions around fixing those specifically. No wasted time on things you already know. Who this is for: Students targeting top universities in the US, UK, or Europe (SAT) Professionals applying to MBA or graduate programs (GMAT / GRE) Anyone who feels "stuck" at a score plateau and needs a structured push Students with strong school math who just need to learn the test format What I offer: Diagnostic session to assess your current level and target score gap Personalized session plan based on your exam date and weak areas Practice problems with detailed step-by-step breakdowns Timed mock drills to build exam-day confidence Available for intensive short-term prep (2–4 weeks) or longer structured programs

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.
