Natasha

Hi, I’m Natasha! I teach A Level Philosophy and Religious Studies on a private 1:1 basis, having previously taught within an Ofsted Outstanding college.

I adore these subjects and I would love to help anyone who feels they need some guidance.

Tutoring Experience

I have ten years worth of experience centred around Philosophy and RS. These subjects enchanted me whilst studying during my own A Levels, but it wasn't an easy ride! The topics often present you with a new way of thinking about things, as well as being challenging and confronting... not to mention rather abstract!

It’s my purpose and passion to facilitate others’ understanding of philosophical issues, covering need-to-know topics on the AQA/Eduqas/OCR syllabus, and providing a wider context from which they can be better analysed and evaluated. We can also focus on essay writing, one of the mysterious but crucial components of A Level. With correct coaching and continued practice, this skill will develop and once it clicks you’ll wander why it seemed elusive.

Tutoring Approach

To get the most out of Philosophy, it’s important to draw parallels with ancient and modern thought. For this reason, I see Philosophy as not only an academic subject but also as life enriching; the ancient search for meaning and well being. The application of ideas is always there – sometimes only subtly – and together we can untangle some of the complexity and find sense in the nonsensical.

If you would like a friendly, knowledgeable person (who can also have a laugh and make some of the heavy topics more interesting!) then please feel free to get in touch.
