Dissertation methodology course for university students

From 45.95 £ /h

I graduated from Jean Moulin University Lyon III with a degree in philosophy and have been teaching this subject privately for several years, to both high school and university students. Passionate about thought and its transmission, I now also assist students with writing and structuring their philosophy theses.
My services are for anyone who wishes to:
• clarify and formulate your problem;
• construct a coherent and reasoned plan;
• strengthen the conceptual precision and logical consistency of the whole;
• work on the style and quality of philosophical expression;
• benefit from a critical and thorough review;
• develop a methodology for reading and organizing work (note-taking, summarizing texts, planning time and prioritizing sources).
Each session is entirely personalized. The first session takes the form of an in-depth discussion about your topic, your difficulties, your approach to the text, and your expectations. We then define together a working framework adapted to your pace and needs.
My goal is twofold: to help you develop rigorous and unique thinking, and to enable you to find your own philosophical voice through writing.
The sessions take place via videoconference. Regular follow-up by email or WhatsApp is also offered between sessions to support progress.
Feel free to contact me to discuss your project or for any further information.
Best regards,
Camille

Philosophy professor in Geneva, personalized support for guaranteed success and greater serenity.

39.25 £ /h

I have a Master 2 degree in philosophy and I teach this subject.
I am deeply passionate about this field as well as about pedagogy and transmission. It is a real pleasure to help my students improve through this special relationship that is established during the courses. Likewise, I have a real ability to grasp your personality, your strengths and your unique difficulties. My support is completely individualized and I prepare my own courses that respect the official programs. Also, I offer regular follow-up by email.

Regarding my methodology, first of all I am keen to get to know my students. The first class is always led by a time of discussion around the student's personal expectations and profile. In addition, it seems absolutely crucial to me to always provide solid methodological bases to all of my learners. This is why a detour via the methods specific to philosophy exercises is systematically made with students preparing for the maturity or the baccalaureate. Then, depending on the specific needs of the student, I adapt the session and it is often structured around two moments: on the one hand, I give a lecture on a concept, an author or conceptual distinctions, and on the other hand I lead practical exercises. Finally, digital documents can be sent to the student later, this is important so that they can keep a record of our work.

Feel free to contact me for more information.
I travel to homes in the following municipalities: Geneva and its surrounding areas, Collonges-sous-Salève, Archamps, Saint-Julien-en-Genevois, Viry.
The courses can also take place by videoconference, in which case there are no travel costs.

See you soon.
Best regards,
Camille

I offer you a new learning experience.

The focus is on practical application and theory is only introduced where intuition reaches its limits.

Whether you are a beginner or an advanced learner, my tailor-made lessons will accelerate your language acquisition in a positive learning environment.

You can book a complete course with regular sessions or individual lessons to overcome a specific problem, such as pronunciation or a particular point in grammar.

Learning a foreign language is not a linear process that consists of memorising a list of words, and speaking a foreign language is not an oral translation exercise.

There are two types of approaches to acquiring knowledge:

When asked what year follows 1999, you can immediately answer 2000 without having to think for a long time and, above all, without having memorised each number individually, starting with 1, 2, 3 ... You know that numbers are formed according to a certain pattern. With only ten digits, you can form an infinite number of numbers and always know which number comes next.

When it comes to the alphabet, words and sentences, it's more or less the same, but school pedagogy, school textbooks and regular lessons still follow the rote learning approach. In the lessons I propose, you will learn to use patterns because this is more efficient and faster.

Learning is easy, but unlearning bad habits is extremely difficult. This makes it all the more important to learn the right reflexes as early as possible.

My offer is aimed at both young people and adults who want to learn German or improve their knowledge without wasting time on nonsensical school methods.

I offer individual or group lessons for German. The methods are based on cognitive science and, in particular, comparative linguistics. My flexible programme can be tailored to your individual needs. The programme focuses on your independence in spontaneous conversations in real life.

What is particularly important to me:

motivating my students and help them establish a learning rhythm;
encouraging their creativity;
helping them become more familiar with the language;
teaching them the letters and their sounds;
strengthening their memory by training their phonological loop;
teaching sentence building plans instead of memorising sentences;
explaining how language works so that my students can become independent as quickly as possible.

I look forward to meeting you.

Presentation :
As a former National Education teacher and BAC examiner, I know how to make French enjoyable for struggling students who don't connect with the subject.
Whether it is to explain how to make a dissertation pleasant to read, how to organize a composed commentary or read one's text clearly, distinctly and posed for an oral.
French is not only a subject, French is difficult and requires effort, but these are rewarded!

Method:
My students have always made significant progress, going from an average of 5 per year to having an average of 14 in the French baccalaureate. My last one to send me his results went from 6 in writing and 9 in speaking to 15 in writing and 17 in speaking (EAF 2024 session).
I have been preparing classes for these tests for years, I am up to date on methodology and programs.
My services combine the experience of teaching French and the vivacity of a young teacher who succeeds in motivating the most recalcitrant students.
My students have always made significant progress and above all, go to tests with confidence in their abilities.

I adapt to your level and I give exercises to do for the next course (finish a comment, make an introductory essay ...).
I am nice and enthusiastic but nevertheless serious: you will make satisfactory progress because you will work for 😉

Student in M1 Public Law at the University of Paris-II, I give courses in law and methodology for undergraduate students.

The courses are mainly intended for law degree students but are open to all. Depending on the needs indicated before the session, I can adapt to all requests and create tailor-made courses in methodology, constitutional law, administrative law, family law, contract law, tort law and other degree subjects.

The goal is to help you master points of law that may have remained obscure and to better explain the course. To this end, I also offer help in carrying out tutorials. I can also prepare a detailed correction of an assignment that would have been sent to me in advance.

Classes can be done alone or in groups depending on needs.
