Why Philosophy is a Powerful Choice

Choosing Philosophy for your child's A-Level or university studies develops essential critical thinking skills, logical reasoning, and the ability to develop and articulate nuanced arguments. All of these skills developed while studying Philosophy are valued by top universities and employers alike. Whether deconstructing complex arguments from Plato, grappling with ethical dilemmas or crafting compelling essays, Philosophy equips your child with the tools they need to approach any challenge with clarity and depth. It provides a robust foundation for competitive degrees in law, politics, economics and other fields you might not expect.

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!
