My approach is deeply Socratic. I do not lecture — I question, challenge, and guide. My students learn to construct rigorous arguments, evaluate evidence critically, and write with clarity and precision. These skills serve them not only in examinations but throughout their intellectual and professional lives.
I specialise in A-Level and IB History and Philosophy, Oxbridge entrance preparation, and undergraduate supervision-style tutoring. My students have gained places at Oxford, Cambridge, LSE, UCL, and other top universities. Several have gone on to win undergraduate prizes in their departments.
My bilingualism in English and French allows me to draw on both Anglo-Saxon and Continental philosophical traditions, giving my students a broader perspective than most tutors can offer.
