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 the Right is a breath of fresh air. This tutoring program is aimed directly at middle school students who are struggling with the following subjects: French, Mathematics, Science, History, and Languages (English and Spanish).

Moreover, being currently preparing for the entrance exam to the National School of Magistrates and passionate about the beauty of multidisciplinary learning, the school program is being reviewed extremely regularly.

🎓 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, Mathematics, Sciences, History and Languages), and this at all levels (primary, middle school, high school, university students and adults).

Regarding my teaching experience in legal subjects, I invite you to consult my other course offering dedicated to this subject and also published on Apprentus.

👋 What about my teaching approach, you might ask?
Beyond this desire for authenticity, it seems particularly important to dismantle the prejudices that poison the perception of students experiencing difficulties. To ensure the smooth running of this lesson and to help the student feel as comfortable as possible, it is essential to remember that the foundation of all conversation and understanding remains listening. Listening to one's equal, regardless of age.

💬 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, ladies and gentlemen of the college, it would be a real pleasure for me to accompany you as best I can on the path to success!

Hi! I’m Thảo, a Vietnamese tutor based in Hanoi, Vietnam, with over 20 years of professional experience and a background in communication and journalism.

I help learners speak Vietnamese clearly, improve their pronunciation, and understand how the language is actually used in real-life situations.

Many learners struggle not because of vocabulary, but because they don’t fully understand pronunciation, context, and cultural meaning.

With over 20 years of professional experience, I know how to communicate clearly and explain complex ideas in a simple, structured way.

In my lessons, I focus on:

• improving your pronunciation step by step

• helping you understand how and why Vietnamese is used in different situations

• building your confidence in real conversations

I carefully correct your mistakes and guide you step by step, so you can improve your accuracy and speak more naturally.

I adapt each lesson to your needs and learning style, so you can learn in a way that works best for you.

Learning Vietnamese can feel confusing at first, especially when you don’t understand how the language works in real life.

Scaffolding, Gamification, Immediate Feedback, Project-Based Learning (PBL), Guided Practice, and Critical Thinking. Language and Spanish Culture and Traditions. Warm-up, working on one or two of the 4 skills (speaking, writing, listening, reading comprehension), and wrapping up with some tips and feedback. I can explain the same concept to you in 100 different ways without getting tired (infinite patience), flexible availability, empathy (I offer a safe space). From kids, curious beginners and intermediate students eager to debate, all the way to advanced senior professionals. My classes are ideal for the modern self-directed learner looking for a mentor who adapts to their pace.
