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!

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is at a competitive Birmingham school like King Edward's. How can a tutor help them stand out in Philosophy?
We understand the high-pressure environment of Birmingham's top schools. A Tutorful philosophy tutor can give your child a significant edge by providing one-to-one attention that isn't possible in a classroom. They can work on advanced analytical skills, essay structuring for top marks, and exploring topics beyond the syllabus to help your child develop a truly distinctive and confident voice in their work.
We're aiming for a Russell Group university like the University of Birmingham. Can a tutor help with this?
Absolutely. Philosophy is a highly-regarded A-Level for top universities as it demonstrates critical thinking. Our tutors, many of whom are Russell Group graduates themselves, can help your child hone the analytical and argumentative skills that admissions tutors look for. They can also assist with personal statement refinement and interview preparation, focusing on articulating complex ideas clearly and confidently.
Is online tutoring really as effective for a discussion-based subject like Philosophy?
Yes, and in many ways, it can be even better. The one-to-one online environment is perfect for focused, in-depth discussions without classroom distractions. Our interactive whiteboard allows for mind-mapping arguments and deconstructing texts together in real-time. It provides a brilliant space for your child to test ideas and build confidence with an expert.
How do I track my child's progress when Philosophy seems so subjective?
This is a common concern, and our tutors are skilled at making progress tangible. They will set clear goals with your child, focusing on specific skills like essay structure, clarity of argument, and use of evidence. You'll see progress through improved grades on practice essays, sharper analytical skills, and most importantly, a growth in your child's confidence when discussing complex ideas.
Are your tutors qualified to teach A-Level Philosophy?
Yes, definitely. We have a rigorous selection process, and only 1 in 8 applicants are successful. All our tutors are background-checked, and you can view their full academic and teaching experience on their profile, including their specific expertise in the A-Level curriculum, so you can find the perfect match for your child.
What if my child doesn't click with their first Philosophy tutor?
Finding the right personality fit is crucial. That's why we have our first lesson guarantee. If you don't get on with your first tutor for any reason, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover the cost of your first session with a new tutor.
How much do online Philosophy lessons for a student in Birmingham cost?
Our prices vary as tutors set their own rates based on their experience. Prices are clearly displayed on each tutor's profile, allowing you to find an expert who fits your budget. Because it's all online, you get access to a UK-wide range of specialists without any travel costs.
How often should my child have a session?
Most students have one hour-long session per week, which is usually ideal for making steady progress. However, the schedule is completely flexible. You can arrange more frequent sessions during exam periods or less frequent ones as needed. It's all managed between you and your tutor to fit your family's life.
My child also studies Politics and History. Can you help with those too?
Yes, we can. We have expert tutors across more than 300 subjects, including many that complement Philosophy perfectly, like Politics, History, and Religious Studies. You can find specialist tutors for each subject to provide comprehensive academic support for your child.
What technology do we need for online lessons?
It's very straightforward. All your child needs is a laptop or computer with a webcam and microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our lessons take place in our bespoke online classroom, which runs directly in your web browser, so there's no complex software to install.
Can a tutor help with specific exam techniques for A-Level Philosophy?
Absolutely. This is one of the key areas where our tutors make a huge difference. They are experienced in the requirements of all the main exam boards and can teach your child exactly how to structure their answers, manage their time effectively, and hit the assessment objectives needed to achieve the highest grades.
