Navigating the transition to A-Level Philosophy can be a real shock for many students as they move from learning facts to debating abstract theories. If your child is currently feeling buried under complex logic or finding it impossible to meet the rigid essay structures required, it’s a lot to ask of any parent to provide the right academic steer.
By bringing in a specialist A-Level Philosophy tutor, you can delegate those difficult debates to a professional. This lets you step back and be the supportive parent while a dedicated mentor helps your teenager untangle intricate arguments and develop the razor-sharp reasoning needed for high-grade essays.

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...

Shannon S
Shannon was my AQA A-Level Philosophy tutor and honestly, words cannot describe how wonderful and beneficial she was to my achievements within this subject! I was really struggling with philosophy and she helped me increase my grade significantly so I could secure a place in Durham University. She created these incredibly helpful PowerPoint presentations which simplified complex concepts into simple, coherent explanations. Also, she provided an amazing 25 marker essay structure and explained how each criteria within the mark scheme could be obtained. Shannon helped revitalise my love for philosophy, which had dwindled a due to exams and stress. I initially felt reluctant to share my opinions within my class because I felt my knowledge on philosophy was not strong enough, but, with Shannon, I felt comfortable and confident to share my opinions, question philosophers and deeply explore topics. We have had many delightful and thorough philosophical conversations and debates. I am forever grateful she was philosophy tutor! Thank you Shannon! :)

Ms. M has been absolutely fantastic. She breaks down complex topics into clear, manageable parts, making even the most challenging content much more approachable. Her ability to tie everything together across the course has really helped me deepen my understanding and develop my evaluative skills. Each session is structured and insightful, and she always offers detailed explanations that go beyond surface-level learning. I’ve come away from every lesson feeling more confident and prepared. Highly recommend!
