Class Experience
US Grade 8 - 12
**Please contact me to schedule a meeting!** This is an opportunity for young learners to receive personalized instruction on the great philosophers and their important works, and each session will be structured for their specific requests and needs. These may include, but certainly not limited to: *Heraclitus *Socrates *Plato *Aristotle *Plotinus *Proclus *Boethius *Avicenna *Aquinas *René Descartes *Maimonides *Hobbes *Hume *Spinoza *Locke *Voltaire *Kant *Fichte *Hegel *Schopenhauer *Schweitzer *Husserl *Heidegger *Foucault *Camus *Ricouer *Derrida *Ayer *Žižek Alternately, students may wish to proceed thematically: *Determinism (vs. Free Will) *Ontology *Epistemology *Theodicy *Hermeneutics *Postmodernism *Phenomenology *Cosmology *Nihilism The choices and possibilities are vast; the opportunity for learning equally the same! Each class with consist of a mini-lecture followed by an interactive seminar of questions and explorations on each topic and themes. The tutoring is aimed at providing students with insights on the true significance of these figures, their place in the history of philosophy, and how their works add to our understanding and appreciation of the human condition in the social, political, and natural worlds in which we inhabit and make our own.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Doctoral Degree from McGill University
I have a PhD in the Philosophy of Religion from McGill University. My comprehensive exams for my doctorate were on Nietzsche and Schopenhauer. My dissertation examined their influence on the philosopher Albert Schweitzer. My subsequent research continued this work by bringing all these philosophers into dialogue with Descartes, Hume, Kant, Hegel, Heidegger, Derrida, and Camus. This research was then published in a title from McGill-Queens University Press, and in a follow-up book with Fortress Academic Press. I have many years of experience teaching undergraduate and graduate courses in philosophy and ethics at university. Reviews
