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!

Brilliant Philosophy tutors who you’ll really click with.
Our experienced tutors take the time to understand where each student needs to focus and their preferred way of learning. They make a measurable difference – 90% of all students improve by at least one grade.
My child's school in Luton doesn't seem to prioritise Philosophy. Can a tutor fill that gap?
Absolutely. This is a common concern for parents, and it's exactly where we can help. An online tutor provides that dedicated, specialist focus your child might be missing, helping them explore topics in greater depth, practise advanced essay skills, and build the confidence to excel beyond the curriculum.
We're aiming for a top university like Cambridge or UCL. Can an online tutor really prepare my child for that level?
Yes. In fact, online tutoring gives your child an advantage. You can connect with tutors who may be graduates or postgraduates from those very universities. They understand the level of critical thinking and analytical depth required and can provide targeted preparation for personal statements and interviews.
Is online tutoring as effective as in-person for a subject like Philosophy?
It really is. Philosophy is all about discussion and the exchange of ideas, which works brilliantly in a focused, one-to-one online environment. With tools like digital whiteboards and document sharing, tutors and students can analyse texts and map out arguments together. Plus, it gives your Luton-based child access to the best tutors across the UK.
What if my child doesn't click with their first Philosophy tutor?
Finding the right personality match is crucial. That's why we have our first lesson guarantee. If you don't feel the first tutor is the perfect fit, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover the cost of your first session with a new tutor.
Can we find a tutor who has studied Philosophy at a top university themselves?
Yes, you can. Many of our tutors are graduates and postgraduates from leading universities. You can view each tutor's full educational background on their profile, helping you find someone with the direct experience to inspire and guide your child towards their own university ambitions.
How much does online Philosophy tutoring cost for a student in Luton?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, which typically range from £25 to £50 depending on their experience and qualifications. You can see each tutor's price clearly on their profile, allowing you to find an expert who fits your family's budget.
My child is also studying History and Politics. Can you find a tutor who understands how these subjects connect?
Definitely. Many of our Philosophy tutors have expertise in related humanities subjects. When you search, you can filter by multiple subjects or read tutor profiles to find someone who can help your child draw powerful connections between their A-Levels, strengthening their understanding across the board.
How are your tutors vetted?
We're very selective because your child's education is so important. We only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply. Every tutor is interviewed, has their qualifications checked, and undergoes a background check, so you can be sure your child is learning from a trusted and capable expert.
What do we need for an online lesson to work?
It's very simple. All your child needs is a laptop or computer with a webcam and microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our online classroom is built into our website, so there's no complex software to download. It's designed to be straightforward and easy to use.
How many sessions a week will my child need?
Most students have one session per week, as this provides consistency without being overwhelming. However, it's completely flexible. You might want more sessions in the run-up to exams or fewer during quieter periods. You can discuss the best plan directly with your chosen tutor.
Can a tutor help specifically with A-Level exam technique?
Yes, this is one of the most valuable areas of support. Tutors can teach your child exactly how to structure essays to meet the marking criteria, how to manage their time under pressure, and how to craft arguments that earn the highest marks. It's targeted support that makes a real difference to their final grade.
My child is also studying History and Politics. Can you find a tutor who understands how these subjects connect?
We do! Whilst we have experts for every academic subject from primary to university level, we also have tutors who can help with practical skills like learning a musical instrument, coding, public speaking, or even university application support. It's all about helping your child build their confidence and skills for the future.
