I received my PhD in philosophy from King's College London in 2016. I am passionate about teaching philosophy and politics, both to university students and secondary school pupils studying for A Levels. I believe that a good education in philosophy and critical thinking opens up a whole world of culture and possibilities for a person and can immeasurably enrich their life.
I have 7 years teaching experience as a university tutor in philosophy and politics at King's College London. While I was working on my masters and PhD I supervised students at King's in small group tutorials and seminars in the following areas: political philosophy, ethics, global justice, epistemology, philosophy of mind and logic and metaphysics. I also have extensive experience teaching A Level philosophy and religious studies. In 2010 I was awarded the graduate teaching award by the philosophy department at King's on the basis of student nominations.
My discursive approach helps develop critical thinking and the skills required for students to reason and argue for themselves in a structured way. This dialectical training is essential for success in essay based arts and humanities subjects, both at university and A Level. I aim to foster a culture of positivity and encouragement in tutorials to help students beat anxiety so they can focus on the topics and questions in hand to their fullest extent.
