I like the lesson a lot, good tutor

I was incredibly impressed by Alastair's academic rigour and passion for philosophy. It was especially notable to see how diligent he was in verifying information before believing it, and it inspired me to be diligent on that front too.

I was having a lot of issues understanding some of the concepts we were learning during my course, so having Alastair as a tutor was a relief as he was able to explain things in a clear manner as well as help appreciate philosophy on a deeper level. Would highly recommend him.

Helped me a lot with my essay last year, highly recommend

I’ve always had a passion for philosophy, however while studying for my A levels, I realised my exam sitting confidence was low. Particularly, I had trouble with structuring essays and communicating my ideas clearly.

Luckily I found Alastair. His lessons were enjoyable and highly informative. After each lesson, I saw marginal improvements in my writing and critical thinking skills. Alastair helped reconcile my passion for philosophy with my lack of confidence, by giving me the tools and insight necessary to properly express my self. Moreover, I feel as though the skills I developed actually improved my grades across multiple classes.

Alastairs experienced insight not only improved my academic rigour, but also opened my eyes to the vastness of philosophy. This quickly made me grow my appreciation for the topic!

Ultimately, I would absolutely recommend Alastair as a tutor. He has helped develop my interests, skills and confidence; invaluable qualities as I continue my academic journey and proceed through life.

Alastair is a hardworking, disciplined student who strives only for the best in what he seeks to accomplish. Along with his passionate drive for excellence, Alastair is an incredible conversationalist, making him an ideal option for a student looking for a friendly tutor.

Alastair was super knowledgeable and presented ideas that I hadn't thought of before. I was challenged in ways I didn't think I would've been otherwise and my critical thinking skills have definitely been expanded upon. The debate style he uses helped in making lessons engaging and also generally for practicing my own debate skills. All in all, was a great time and I felt like I learned a lot!
