I'm a certified primary and secondary school level teacher in Philosophy and also in English (TESOL/ESL). During the past 12 years I have taught English and Philosophy at primary, secondary, and uni level, as well as to adult learners. I have designed and delivered several academic courses for British, Japanese and Hungarian schools and universities, and I have experience with live, online and hybrid teaching, both for groups and individuals.
My largest class has been a freshman 'Introduction to Philosophy' lecture with 160+ students. At high school and in seminars I typically teach 15-30 students, and I also teach English to small groups of university students, primary and secondary level students, and adult learners. I also run several one-on-one tutorials both online and face-to-face.
