About Glendon

My name is Glendon, and I am a deeply committed, professional educator with an extensive 26-year career teaching humanities and social sciences across both university and senior high school environments.I understand that choosing the right private tutor requires absolute confidence in their qualifications and background. To reassure you of my legitimacy and dedication to academic excellence, I hold a Bachelor of Arts in Philosophy alongside a Master of Arts in Education. Additionally, I have successfully completed all post-graduate coursework toward a Master of Arts in Philosophy, as well as 48 advanced doctoral units toward a Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) in Educational Management.Over nearly three decades in the classroom, I have developed highly effective, field-tested educational strategies. I have guided thousands of students through complex subjects, helping them transform confusing academic material into clear, accessible knowledge. My long-standing reputation in the academe is built entirely on professional integrity, structure, and a proven track record of helping students elevate their grades, master critical thinking, and build lifelong academic confidence. When you study with me, you are partnering with a seasoned professional who understands the exact standards of top-tier schools and is completely invested in your growth and success.

About the lesson

Hi! My name is Glendon, my students usually call me sir G, and after spending 26 years in the classroom, I have learned that the best teaching doesn't happen when a teacher lectures at a student, but when we think with the student.

My Teaching Approach & Techniques:
I rely heavily on a relaxed, modern version of the Socratic Method. Instead of forcing you to memorize dry definitions, I ask open-ended questions and use real-world scenarios. We will take a dense concept from your syllabus and connect it to current events, pop culture, or daily life. When it comes to Essay Writing and Critical Thinking, my technique is highly practical. I break down argument-building into simple, visual blocks so you can see exactly how to structure an introduction, body, and conclusion without getting overwhelmed.

A Typical 60-Minute Lesson Plan:
Every session is structured but flexible enough to adapt to how you are feeling that day:
• First 5 Minutes (The Check-In): We chat about your week. Did a specific topic in school confuse you? Did you get a paper back? We align on today's goal.
• Next 15 Minutes (The Breakthrough): I introduce one specific, core concept (like a theory in UCSP or a logic rule) using simple language and everyday examples.
• Next 25 Minutes (The Deep Dive): This is interactive. We look at a text, an essay prompt, or a case study together. We brainstorm, map out points, and practice analyzing the idea.
• Next 10 Minutes (Practical Application): You try it out. We write a practice thesis statement or draft a paragraph together so you gain immediate confidence.
• Last 5 Minutes (The Wrap-Up): We summarize what we learned, and I give you a clear, stress-free takeaway to think about before our next session.

What Sets Me Apart:
What sets me apart is the unique blend of deep academic training and genuine classroom warmth. I have completed all master’s coursework in philosophy and 48 doctoral units in educational management, but I don’t bring a rigid, intimidating university attitude to our sessions. I know the exact pain points of senior high and college students because I see them every day. I know how to coach you through academic anxiety, and I treat you as an equal partner in learning.

Who These Lessons Are For:
My lessons are specifically designed for:
• Senior High School Students struggling to pass or excel in core subjects like Introduction to the Philosophy of the Human Person, UCSP, Personal Development, and Life & Career Skills.
• College Undergraduates who need a mentor to help them sharpen their critical thinking, understand complex philosophical frameworks (Ethics, Existentialism, Political Philosophy), or write high-scoring academic essays.
• Lifelong Learners & Adults who want to explore practical philosophy as a tool for personal growth, career transitions, and understanding human relationships.

I always give a free 30-minute chat for our very first meeting. No pressure at all—we will just look over your school syllabus or personal goals, see if we are a good fit for each other, and map out a simple, stress-free plan to help you succeed. We can do our classes online through Zoom or Google Meet, whichever is easier for you!
