Christy B
£44.20 to £60.30 ph

Mr Christy B
Philosophy Tutor

Hi, I am a computer science teacher located in Bristol. I currently work in a secondary school but would be interested in doing some tutoring. I can tutor computer science, philosophy, and politics, both of which I hold to degree-level. I can cover all the aforementioned subjects up to A-Level. I would also be happy to tutor philosophy at degree level, since I hold a masters in the subject. Lessons would be bespoke to student needs, and I would be happy to set homework and mark it if that would be helpful! A bit about me: my hobbies are reading philosophy books and hanging out with my four cats, Viktor, Nico, Ember and Merlyn. I'm currently tutoring them in not scratching the furniture, but I must confess it isn't going particularly well.

Mr Paul T
Philosophy Tutor

As the head of department of one of the highest-performing secondary schools in the country for the last 13 years, I believe that the best way to help a student excel is to bring the subject to life. In comparison with other successful schools in the country, our RE results have consistently been some of the highest obtained. I specialise in GCSE Religious Studies and A-Level Philosophy and Ethics and have taught every key stage and various exam boards. I believe that one of the most powerful tools in a teachers arsenal is in building a positive relationship with the student. I have had much life experience; formerly spending time in New York (the Bronx and Harlem) as a Franciscan monk and also working in Film. Our schools recent RE inspection noted the following: the students are supported by an outstanding subject leader whose passion for the success of each student is tangible...'

Tuition with a qualified Philosophy teacher at your home costs from £46.00 ph. Online tuition with a qualified Philosophy teacher costs from £40.00 ph. Create your own small tuition group and Philosophy tuition costs from £17.50 ph.

Because we only ever work with qualified and experienced Philosophy teachers, you will always get a highly experienced teacher who is safe, reliable and up to speed with the current curriculum and exam requirements. There is no excellent learning without excellent teaching, and our Philosophy teachers are expected to teach in a way that inspires and motivates. We have over 20,000 talented teachers providing tuition, chosen for their broad range of experience, professionalism, academic specialisms, passion, and dedication to their students. We only ever offer qualified teachers as tutors, as we believe professional teachers provide the highest quality of tuition.

Location
Home Tuition: Involves a Philosophy tutor coming to your home to provide one-on-one instruction. This offers convenience as you don't need to travel. Online Tuition: This can take place anywhere with an internet connection. Small Group Tuition: Typically with between 2 to 4 children, and often occurs in a physical location such as your home, though it can also be online.

Individual Attention
Home Tuition: Offers the highest level of individual attention, as the Philosophy tutor focuses solely on one student. Online Tuition: Still allows for one-to-one attention, but it may be slightly less personal than home tuition due to potential distractions. Small Group Tuition: Offers less individual attention as the Philosophy tutor must divide their time and attention among multiple students.

Cost
Home Tuition: This tends to be more expensive because it involves one-on-one teaching, and the Philosophy tutor is required to travel to your home. Online Tuition: Often more affordable than home tuition as your Philosophy tutor does not need to travel but may still cost more than small group tuition. Small Group Tuition: Generally, this is the most cost-effective option, as the costs are shared among several families.

Flexibility
Home Tuition: Offers flexibility in terms of scheduling and curriculum, as your Philosophy tutor will only be working with your child. Online Tuition: Provides flexibility in terms of location and may offer a wider selection of Philosophy tutors. Small Group Tuition: Lessons will be more difficult to schedule as lesson times will have to fit in with other families.

Interaction
Home Tuition: Offers in-person interaction, which can be beneficial for students who learn better through face-to-face communication. Online Tuition: Provides interaction through video conferencing tools and chat, which can be engaging but may not suit everyone's learning style. Small Group Tuition: Allows for peer interaction, which can benefit collaborative learning and discussions.

The choice between home, online, or small group Philosophy tuition depends on your preferences, budget, and the student's specific educational needs. Each option has advantages and disadvantages, so it's essential to consider these factors when deciding.
