Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child is aiming for a competitive course at a university like King's College London. How can a Philosophy tutor help them stand out?

This is exactly where a Philosophy tutor can make a huge difference. They help your child develop and articulate sophisticated arguments, analyse complex texts, and demonstrate intellectual curiosity beyond the syllabus – all key qualities that top admissions tutors look for. It helps them build a compelling personal statement and perform strongly in interviews.

With the intense competition for grammar schools like St Olave's, can Philosophy tutoring provide a different kind of academic advantage?

Absolutely. Whilst not a core subject for entrance exams, Philosophy tutoring builds the foundational skills of critical thinking, logic, and reasoning that are tested in verbal and non-verbal reasoning papers. It encourages children to think methodically and creatively, giving them a valuable edge in problem-solving.

Are your tutors actually based in south-east-london?

Our tutors are based all across the UK, not specifically in south-east-london. All our tutoring is online, which is a huge advantage. It means your child isn't limited to local tutors but can connect with a Philosophy specialist from any part of the country, right from your home.

Is online tutoring really as effective for a discussion-based subject like Philosophy?

It's fantastic for it. The one-to-one online format is perfect for deep conversation without classroom distractions. Tutors use interactive whiteboards to map out arguments and can share texts and resources instantly on-screen. It creates a focused environment for your child to really explore and debate complex ideas.

What if my child doesn't click with their first Philosophy tutor?

We know that the right personal connection is vital. If the first session with a tutor isn't the perfect fit, please email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk. We will happily cover the cost of your first lesson with a new tutor to ensure you find the right match.

What qualifications do your Philosophy tutors have?

We have a very selective process, accepting only 1 in 8 applicants. Our Philosophy tutors are typically subject-matter experts, including university graduates from top institutions, postgraduates, and experienced teachers. You can view each tutor's full profile, qualifications, and reviews before you book.

How do I find the right Philosophy tutor for my child?

You can use our search filters to find tutors who specialise in the right level, from GCSE and A-Level to university preparation. You can read their profiles, watch their introductory videos, and message them directly to discuss your child's needs before booking a session.

Can tutoring help my child feel more confident expressing their own opinions?

Yes, this is one of the greatest benefits. A tutor provides a safe, encouraging space for your child to test out their ideas and build arguments. As they see their thoughts being taken seriously and learn how to structure them effectively, their confidence in speaking up in class and in life grows immensely.

Besides Philosophy, do you offer tutoring in other subjects that build critical thinking?

We do. Many students find that subjects like Politics, Economics, and Classical Civilisation also develop strong analytical and argumentative skills. We offer expert online tutors across more than 300 subjects, so you can always find support to broaden your child's intellectual horizons.

What technology does my child need for online lessons?

It's very simple. All your child needs is a laptop or desktop computer with a webcam and microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our custom-built online classroom runs directly in your web browser, so there's no complicated software to install.

How much do online Philosophy lessons cost?

The price of a lesson varies as our tutors set their own hourly rates based on their experience and qualifications. You can see each tutor's price clearly on their profile, allowing you to find an excellent tutor who fits your family's budget.

How do I find the right Philosophy tutor for my child?

Most of our students have one hour-long session per week. This provides consistency and allows the tutor to build momentum, but the schedule is completely flexible and up to you. You can discuss the best frequency with your chosen tutor based on your child's specific goals.
