Philosophy tutors
7 UK tutors who teach Philosophy. £40–£80/hr · median £60
Philosophy at A-level (AQA is the main board) covers epistemology, moral philosophy, metaphysics of mind, and metaphysics of God: close in style to a first-year university PPE module. There's no GCSE Philosophy in the standard offer, though Religious Studies covers some of the ground. Tutoring helps most with the essay craft (philosophy mark schemes reward precision and counter-argument over rhetorical flourish) and with the technical vocabulary, which students often half-learn from secondary sources. Look for tutors with a philosophy degree, ideally analytic-tradition; the subject is poorly staffed in many schools and tutoring genuinely closes a gap.
