About Rory
With years of experience studying and teaching philosophy, I can help you read philosophical literature at a high level, develop your own arguments and refine your analytical writing skills. I welcome students at all levels of study!
Having marked thousands of papers and exams, I know what markers want and can help improve your grades and get a lot more value from your studies.
In terms of my background, I have studied politics and international relations, psychology, history and philosophy of science, philosophy as well as ancient and modern history at the tertiary level, completing a Bachelor of Arts from the University of Sydney, First Class Honours from ANU, and a Master of Arts from the University of Sydney. Subsequently I have worked in research and teaching within three separate philosophy departments. I have tutored many classes across a range of units and subject areas and spent a decade in academia.
I continue my own career development through studying a Masters of Secondary Education degree in 2024.
Feedback from students:
"Rory was an excellent facilitator of discussion, and an incredibly knowledgeable and thoughtful teacher. He made my learning experience a positive one. I count myself lucky to have been in his class."
"Very open to dialogue and engaging in both lectures and tutorials. Provided good examples, argument breakdowns and notes about philosophical concepts or methods to help learn the content beyond simply the texts."
"Rory was exceptional throughout all tutorials and lectures and aided in my enjoyment and passion for ethics greatly. His engagement was the best part of his teaching"
"Very engaging! Amazing tutorial!! very engaging and learnt a lot through discussion questions!"
