About Scott
I have a First Class BA in philosophy from Essex University where I earned the Barbara Crawshaw Prize for best performance in my year group, a Distinction MA in philosophy from York University on the Jane Tomlinson Scholarship for academic excellence, and am currently working on my PhD in philosophy - the project involving extensive research in chemistry and biology - back at Essex, for which I have been awarded government (AHRC) funding to complete in virtue of the promise of the research and my academic track record. I have worked as a summer-school teacher for over five years in a Cambridge University based summer school, teaching Philosophy & Ethics, Politics & International Relations, History, Sociology, and Psychology, on a group and individual basis. I have also worked as an online tutor for over six years, teaching, in addition to the above subjects, English Language, English Literature, Religious Studies, Chemistry and Biology. I have taught in classrooms, online, in public spaces, and even in prisons. There is perhaps nothing that I find as rewarding as teaching, and this love of the art translates to the best results for my students.

In my teaching, I follow a student-centred approach. I aim to develop students' confidence in their own abilities alongside improving their knowledge of the subject in question. I principally achieve this with problem-oriented and dialogue-based teaching techniques that naturally make topics interesting and encourage students to arrive at the answers themselves under careful guidance, cultivating the inquisitive mind. Typically, lessons are an hour long, though I am happy for them to be longer.
Recommendations
Recommendations are written by the tutor's friends, family, and acquaintances.
Scott and I have taught together for the past few years at a Summer School in Cambridge University. I can confidently say that his students are thoroughly engaged in his sessions, which he teaches in a way which encourages active participation, thought development, and discussion. Scott's students talk about his lessons beyond the classroom, as his method of teaching leaves a long lasting impact. I highly recommend Scott as a tutor for Philosophy, Politics, Sociology, History and English.
Scott has taught on my summer school class for 4 years now. He is an exceptional teacher, and always recieves rave reviews from his students.
