About Harriet
read Theology, Religion & Philosophy at Cambridge University where I went on to graduate with First-Class Honours. I am an experienced tutor, having tutored Religious Studies/Philosophy A-level for a number of years now, across all exam boards. Philosophy is a fantastic subject and I thoroughly enjoy teaching every one of my students! Over the years I have developed a teaching style and method which has helped students achieve those top grades. I typically work through the specification in chronological order, ensuring students understand the content while simultaneously developing essay-writing skills. As exam season approaches, I provide my students with practical advice on how best to revise and consolidate material and really perfect that exam technique. My experience has meant that I am able to pool from a large selection of resources, including exemplar essays, which I provide to students as we go. My teaching style is inspired by the way I was taught at Cambridge; lessons are interactive and I encourage my students to explain things back to me as much as possible. A final aspect of exam success is fully understanding what the relevant exam board is asking of students; AQA for example, is quite different to, say, OCR. Appreciating how the exam is assessed is therefore very important! I therefore always allocate some teaching time to going through the specification in depth, understanding how exactly exams are marked and considering past-paper exemplar answers. I really enjoy my job and find it incredibly rewarding seeing how much progress my students make throughout the year. Feel free to drop me a message and I will endeavour to get back to you within 24 hours.

I studied Philosophy, Theology & Religious Studies at Cambridge, where I later graduated with First Class Honours. I have tutored for a number of years now and understand how to ensure students achieve their full potential in examinations, across all exam boards. Many of my students have gone on to achieve As and A*s and it is really rewarding to see them grow in confidence and ability.
I provide students with additional resources to supplement those provided in school and give detailed feedback on their work, ensuring they understand what steps they need to take going forward. I`m friendly and endeavour to make my lessons as interactive as possible! This mimics how I was taught at Cambridge and I have found that getting students to explain concepts or arguments out loud is an excellent way to learn and identify areas to work on. I also offer practical advice on how to approach revision and how to perfect exam technique.

I was Harriet’s Director of Studies at Sidney Sussex College, Cambridge, which means that I oversaw her academic progress in the College, as well as the modules she took and the tuition she received. I also taught her one-on-one, for two of the Philosophy of Religion modules she has studied in her course. In the time that I have worked with her she has proven herself to be an eloquent, intelligent, organised, and industrious student.
Her exam results for her first two years of study included some excellent performances: averaging a very high 2:i overall, she also achieved good first class results in a cluster of modules, including work in the history of Christianity, Philosophy and Ethics, and Literature. Last year, Harriet was awarded the Robert Johnson Scholarship by the College for placing among the top 20% of students in her year. This year, she achieved a 1st class result in her degree overall: a splendid achievement.
In the papers that Harriet has achieved high marks, her supervisors have described her as producing well-argued, well-structured and detailed essays, and as being a thoughtful, perceptive and wide-ranging thinker.
She also stands out among her peers for her ambitious record of pairing a commitment to her studies with a score of extra-curricular activities. That she has produced good results alongside these commitments is testament, no doubt, to her hard work and determination. In her second year (in which she earned her scholarship) she was on the Varsity dance team, was a member of the Corpus Christi College Choir, a member of the College Boat Club, and took on responsibility for helping to administrate the College Gym. Early in her third year she was elected President of the June Event, and has therefore not only had to lead the planning of a large-scale entertainment event, but has also had to oversee the cancellation of plans and the dismantling of structures in the light of the COVID-19 crisis this year.View more recommendations
