Philosophical and/or Sociological Theory: Tailored Lessons and Guided Study

From 37.51 £ /h

This class offers personalized instruction in philosophical and/or sociological theory, suited both for students seeking academic support and for individuals with a general interest in a philosophical topic.
Sessions are designed according to the student’s goals, whether it’s clarifying course material, preparing written assignments, or exploring theoretical texts independently.

I am currently completing a Master of Arts in Philosophy. My areas of specialization include ancient philosophy, early modern philosophy, and phenomenology. I also hold a background in sociology, which allows me to offer interdisciplinary approaches to social theory and critical thought.

Sessions can be focused on specific authors or movements (e.g. Plato, Spinoza, feminist theory), or organized thematically around concepts such as love, beauty, perception, or subjectivity. The goal is to foster rigorous but accessible understanding, with attention to both conceptual clarity and historical context.

Please indicate your academic level, institutional requirements (if applicable), and areas of interest. Sessions are available in English or Spanish.

About Me

I’m a passionate and committed teacher currently completing a Master of Arts in Philosophy at KU Leuven. I hold a double degree in Philosophy and Sociology, and I’ve taught university-level classes in sociology in Chile, where I also worked as a teaching assistant in nearly all of my philosophy courses. Teaching has always been one of the parts I love most about academic life.

My areas of specialization include ancient philosophy, early modern philosophy, and phenomenology, but I also enjoy bridging philosophy with social and political theory. I offer tailored lessons for both academic support (high school and university) and for those simply interested in exploring philosophical or sociological ideas more broadly.

I aim to create a space that is both intellectually rigorous and open, where students can clarify complex concepts, develop their own voice, and ask meaningful questions. I adapt each session to your level and objectives — whether that’s preparing for exams, writing papers, or engaging deeply with a specific thinker or tradition.

I teach in English or Spanish, and welcome students of all levels. I especially enjoy working with curious, motivated learners who want to think seriously and grow in confidence.

Let’s explore ideas together, with patience, depth, and enthusiasm.
