AUD 200/moOne-on-one language instructionGet all the benefits of the previous tiers, plus a 45min weekly Greek lesson with me over Zoom. I also offer courses in Latin and Coptic. Design your own learning to meet your needs. We can cover basic grammar, read a text together (guided reading) and much more
AUD 257/moI'm your editorWant to write a book, essay, or novel in the broad area of religious studies/early Christianity/Gnosticism/Hermeticism and you just don't know how to do it? Need someone to improve your writing, make sure your arguments are sound, and your stories sink in? I've got two years experience as the editor of a journal and thousands of pages of scholarly books and articles in print. I can help you realize your dream to be a good writer. Send me your drafts and I'll provide timely and expert feedback.
AUD 529/moDesign your own Course!Get all the benefits of the previous tiers, but design your own course with me. The sky's the limit: we can do ancient philosophy, the Hermetica, New Testament, Early Christian history, Gnosticism, Nag Hammadi literature, Gospel of Thomas, Secret Book of John--anything in my field is fair game. You'll get an hour of dedicated, one-on-one instruction per week over Zoom. This will be a real, academic course! I'll assign a book and/or articles; we'll have discussion time, direct q&a during our Zoom call, interactive digital learning, and even quizzes and tests if you want them. At the end of your course, I'll design your certificate so you can show off. :)
AUD 1,562/moI become your full-time ACADEMIC ADVISORIn this tier, you get all the other benefits with a huge difference: I become your one-on-one academic advisor. We study what you want to study. You learn what you want to learn. We communicate daily by direct email and have weekly 1hr Zoom calls. How you design your learning is up to you: You can learn a language with me through daily instruction (Greek/Latin/Coptic, including reading knowledge of German and French), I can teach you how to write an academic article or book. You can write a dissertation or thesis with me and make it into an article or book. I will then help you revise your article or book for publication, offering you feedback on drafts every week. In short, you will become a scholar. But more importantly, you'll learn to think and act like a scholar, and be equipped to share your learning in the global marketplace. So take this step and let's learn one-on-one!
