Kay P.

5 Philosophy lessons

Paul and I met for two sessions to work on a challenging Philosophy assignment. Paul was very quick to respond and offer his help. He reviewed, edited and commented on my essay and provided me a list of questions and issues he offered to discuss with me the same day. Philosophy is a tough subject, especially to write papers on, so if you are looking for help contact Paul! He is really awesome at explaining tough concepts. Thank you Paul!
