Francesca W
Enthusiastic Philosophy medicine and Oxbridge tutor
Hi I'm Fran, I studied Classics at Oxford University and since then have gone on to do a Graduate Entry Medical Course in Southampton where I have just started placements and finished the preclinical medicine part of the course.

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...
