Ian B
Inspirational Philosophy Tutor
I have taught in schools, colleges and as a private tutor for twenty five years. Whether one-to-one or in a class situation I have developed a teaching style that centres on the individual. Essential to my success over the years has been my ability to listen to a student, analyse their needs, then put in place a scheme of work that will accomplish set targets. I teach Social Science (Psychology and Sociology) Philosophy and English. My focus in a lesson plan can include work on elucidation of theories, ideas or methods, but also I cover work on writing skills and essay planning as often it is not...

I am a social sciences tutor with a wealth of academic and teaching experience. I have taught and lectured in universities both in the UK and internationally for well over ten years.

Samuel M
Sam is an extremely encouraging and helpful tutor.
I've had two sessions with him in which we covered the Chinese room thought experiment and some of its replies. At first, I didn't have a very good understanding of the topic, but after having a general discussion about it and exploring areas I was really unsure about in depth, I have come to understand it really well. These two sessions have been very insightful and allow me to approach my work with a greater understanding of the topic. I would recommend Sam to any Philosophy student!

Krasimira F
Krasimira is an excellent tutor, and I would highly recommend her. Though its only been a short amount of time since we started communicating, her help and support has helped me immensely in the lead up, and since the start of my Philosophy course. Her feedback and advice, have been and are invaluable
She is very knowledgeable, professional, flexible and patient and I regard her as not just my tutor but mentor too.

Gemma C
I thought Gemma's feedback for my essay was very helpful, she did more than I expected. Her grammar checks were great, pointing out what areas to expand on and providing me with suggestions on what to include in different areas was beyond helpful. She understood my areas of improvement as she pointed that out in the feedback and gave suggestions on how to do so in a first-class way, which is what I wanted. She also acknowledged the extra point that I didn't do any work on but still explained how I could incorporate that which I really appreciate. I feel a lot more confident in my essay and know how to navigate future ones
