Information About Robert:

Personal Description:

I have recently finished my Masters degree and am currently working towards a PHD. I have a passion for education, and specifically politics and philosophy as subjects essential to any young adult.

Teaching Experience:

I have tutored successfully for two years. I have also taught on a part time basis in a Large London College.

Tutoring Approach:

I have always approached education and learning in two ways: the importance of the subject and achievement in examination. I feel that it is necessary to explore the relevance and importance of it outside of the directly examined area. I think for all subjects it is essential to pay attention to the broader issues around it in the media, in society and in history. Through this method not only are avenues of interest opened, but a more holistic learning made possible.

Alongside this it is necessary to keep focused upon the primary end of education in our times: Results. As achievement is measured in examination results, preparation in this area should play a central role. I always believe exam practice and learning with exam questions in mind is the safest and most effective way of guaranteeing results. This does not mean blindly learning exam answers but rather enabling learning through looking at exam skills and technique.

Qualifications:

• MA from UCL in European Thought
• First Class BA(Hons) Politics fro University of Nottingham
