About Philip
I love teaching and tutoring as it enables me to help others to become as curious as I am about the world and hungry to learn more.
I am a masters student in Philsophy of Cognitve Science at the University of Oxford, previously I was at Winchester College and Wellington College as well as Sussex House.
I have a wealth of experience on childern aged 6 to 18 and have taught a number of subjects at Pre-U, IB, A-level and GCSE. I often work on school and university admissions as well as standardised examinations. I have experience with children suffering from learning disabilities and am particularly keen to help them as I am dyslexic and dysgraphic myself and have learnt to work alongside such difficulties.
Tutoring always works best when the tutor and the tutee really enjoy working together to pinpoint skills and areas of study which could benefit from development. In addition to developing key marking areas I aim to grow a student’s drive and motivation to improve and build a shared understanding of their strengths and weaknesses. For a student to continually grow their capabilities and achieve the best results academically, it's very important that the sessions are framed in a way which works well for them and contributes to their overall enjoyment of a subject, by making sessions engaging as well as instructive.

Philip is a lovely chap. Clever and witty he does very well with our two children and somehow got them interessed in thinking about their studies.
Over a couple of months. He took them to Museums and conversed with them at length as well as worked through their schoolwork. He is great at engaging and inspiring them to look beyond the material.Philip is an absolute natural at tutoring. The sessions are well structured, he explains points in a succinct manner and he asks thought provoking questions which really help to strengthen my son’s understanding.
Philip is a very intelligent, likeable and easy to talk to young man that is surely going places in life. I am very happy to have him tutor my son.Philip was a wonderful mentor to my daughter in the months before her GCSE and Pre-U's. He was always very professional and reliable.But most of all his enthusiams and intellectual vigor really inspired my daughter to enjoy her studies and she has has a much better idea what she wants to do at university and beyond. I would strongly recommend him.
Phil is an exceptional teacher that has a good breadth of experience. He’s succeeded in ensuring a number of his students at GCSE and scholarship achieve top marks.
