Philosophy Tutors : 1-1 Philosophy Preparation

Hello! My name is Henry and I am an experienced tutor studying Philosophy and Theology at the University of Oxford, having achieved 3 A*s at A-Level, an A* EPQ and 11 9s at GCSE. I also received a Distinction in my first-year exams at university.

I love to work with students of all ages and levels of study. I bring a friendly and relaxed approach to tutoring, and am flexible and communicative in organising sessions. I have worked with tutees from 7 years old to Oxbridge applicants, as well as having previously worked multiple summers as a House Parent at an international summer school and as an Outdoor Activity Instructor.

I can tutor students for university admissions including Oxbridge; EPQ having achieved A*; Maths up to GCSE, having achieved an A* at A-Level and 9s in Maths and Further Maths at GCSE; Philosophy/Religious Studies/Ethics/Theology at A-Level, as this is my degree subject; Government and Politics up to A-Level, having achieved A* at A-Level; English up to GCSE having achieved 9s in English Literature and English Language at GCSE.

I have graduated from the University of Oxford with a 2.1 in Philosophy and Theology. Prior to attending Oxford, I achieved A*A*A* in English Literature, Latin and Religious Studies, with 5 A*S, 4 Grade 9s and a Grade 8 in GCSEs.

For the past few years, I have been a private tutor which has also entailed mentoring young students and seeing them progress and achieving their dream spots at their universities. This has enabled me to build client relationships and to handle multiple concurrent tasks, since I balanced tutoring with my ability to thrive in Oxford’s rigorous academic environment. I also believe that I work well under time constraints and to meet deadlines, which is an ability that my time at Oxford has prepared me well for.

I am well-placed to provide tuition at 11 and 13+, as well as English Language, English Literature and RE GCSE, A-Level and degree-level tuition. I am also up-to-date on examination syllabi and the requirements needed for achieving top marks.

I have tutoring experience in GCSE English Language, GCSE English Literature, GCSE Religious Studies and Oxbridge Classics admissions. I also mentor students in application for Oxbridge Classics, as I changed degrees in my third year, and assisted a student in her successful entrance to Oxford for Classics via personal statement, interview/test advice and general information about the course and university life. Therefore, I am available to support Oxbridge Classics admissions.

Hi there, I’m Cameron! It’s great that you are thinking already about raising your game and reaching your aspirations in education. It is not too long ago that I was in the same position. A bit about me: I am a current Oxford Philosophy and Theology undergraduate with a passion for education- a lifelong, enriching process which all learners should be able to access and where all should be feel a sense of achievement. Following from this, I have worked as a volunteer in educational outreach for state schools like where I came from before Oxford. I have ran personal statement and Oxbridge application workshops, as well as ‘tasters’ in philosophy. The biggest honour was that my high school allowed me to come back!
I studied English literature (A*), Psychology (A*), Philosophy (A) at A level, and I also studied History at AS where I received the highest mark in my cohort. I have always had a wide range of interests, and enjoyed seeing where and how they intertwine in interesting and creative ways.
My friends will say that I am both a solitary creature reading in libraries or wandering about Oxford, and a massive extrovert who loves staying out and meeting new people.
I hope that we can share an enthusiasm for learning, and I hope that I can help you in reaching your goals and aspirations.

I am a Law graduate from the University of Oxford, passionate about helping students reach their full potential. I have tutored a variety of students across a range of levels, from 11+ Maths and English to GCSE History and university law admissions. I have experience guiding prospective students through law applications, offering LNAT preparation, personal statement review, mock interviews and 1:1 tutorial-style sessions on a variety of topics on the university law syllabus. My personalised approach has helped students to secure offers to study law at top universities, including the University of Oxford. I have also delivered workshops and targeted sessions, having worked with the St John’s College Admissions team to run law application-focused sessions alongside Oxford tutors during Open Days, as well as leading constitutional law and essay-writing workshops for A-Level students. By creating tailored sessions and offering clear, practical guidance, I help students build confidence and achieve their goals.

I completed an AS Level award in English Literature and A Levels in History, Psychology and Art and Design. I then achieved a 2:1 in BSc Applied Psychology at Liverpool John Moores University in 2014. In 2018, I successfully completed a PGCert from the University of Birmingham in Low Intensity Psychological Interventions, and in 2021 I qualified as a teacher of Art and Design.
I am a creative-thinking and motivated individual looking for a new challenge to broaden my horizons. I have previously worked as a psychological talking therapist, and I am also a qualified secondary teacher with extensive experience in schools; which has led me to my current role as an SEN tutor for adolescents who are refusing school attendance. My role is to provide them with the emotional support and encouragement needed to return to school, as well as helping them to learn and revise all curriculum material needed to pass their exams. I relish the opportunity to build positive relationships with others, as this is what motivates me, and I love to see meaningful changes which lead to bright futures; as a result of the work that myself and others have put in. I believe that in order to overcome any challenge, the first step is to identify the barriers to change. This requires the development of trusting relationships with students, as well as their parents and key staff members at their enrolled schools. Once these barriers are identified, we are able to collaboratively come up with a tailored plan to integrate students back into school.

Hi

As a tutor, I bring a kind, caring, and empathic approach, deeply rooted in the belief that every child holds unique potential waiting to be nurtured. My practice is centred around developing individual capacity, confidence, and self-esteem through creative play and a Steiner-inspired educational philosophy.

I take time to understand each learner’s needs, designing a bespoke hidden curriculum that gently weaves academics and a natural problem-solving approach into meaningful, engaging experiences. This approach is especially supportive for children facing behavioural or personal challenges.

My goal is to foster a sense of curiosity and critical thinking, encouraging students to explore, question, and grow at their own pace—building not just knowledge, but a genuine love of learning.

Kind Regards,
Anthony.
