About Rafael

I am a Swedish-Francophone philosopher, lecturer and writer with a PhD from University College London (in philosophy and psychoanalytic theory). My work has been published widely in academic journals, magazines, and newspapers. I am also working on two separate books together dealing with German and French philosophy, apocalyptic fiction, theology, psychoanalysis, political theory, and religion.

I completed my Bachelor's at Exeter University in 2021 and Master's at UCL in 2022. My interests revolve primarily around philosophy, psychology, and psychoanalysis (particularly: Freudian, Lacanian, and Laplanchean psychoanalysis; Hegel and German Idealism; phenomenology and existentialism; French post-structuralism; developmental and cognitive psychology; and neuroscience). However my interests also extend to political theory, film, literature, history, and theology.

Successful learning consists of experiencing how an object of study defines itself by its relations within an expansive web of knowledge. My approach to teaching therefore involves motivating students to broaden their frame of reference, to understand ideas and topics in depth by exploring texts in detail and eventually knowing precisely how one topic defines itself through other topics. For example, a cognitive psychologist would benefit from exploring his field's relation to Freud's transcription-based psychic model, Hegelian Logic, or Wittgenstein's Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus. My academic experience is in psychoanalysis, philosophy, and psychology. I have also tutored students in English Literature, and have an understanding of syllabus requirements from A Level to University level, including class relations and Marxism, ideology and Freud, and history and religious studies. Thus, whilst my teaching style incorporates the building of a frame of reference for each particular subject, this approach is tailored to the particular demands of each student and of the level of study (whether GCSE, A Level, or University). My lessons would generally be an hour, but this can be discussed and vary. My lessons can be tailored according to age and subject, and pedagogical considerations are adjusted according to the requests of each student (e.g. emphasis on philosophy over psychology, or preferred inclusion of history, politics, religious studies etc.).
