Amanda A.

6 Philosophy lessons

William didn't just explain the material, he would challenge me to think about the topics critically for very deep understanding. Philosophy is hard. Let's just say it. The only way to get it is to work at it. I am so glad that I got William as a tutor. Not only did I get the Cum Laude, but I also finished the class with an A. The final went better than I could have imagined as I answered every question with confidence and pride.
Saad B.

25 Philosophy lessons

She is a really great tutor. I took her for my philosophy course, and I was not interested in philosophy at all. But, she made it very easy to understand, and she likes to make sure her students comprehend the material as easy as possible. She is also very very very patient with her students: she can say things over and over again which is not all tutors tend to do. If you want to succeed in your classes, take her immediately.
Miryam V.

8 Philosophy lessons

I needed of a philosophy tutor and Mr. John H was very patient and very knowledgeable. I had had several tutors (in other subjects) in the past and Mr. H was the only one who carried books with him. In his tutoring he displayed professionalism as well punctuality... no problems. I will take him as a tutor in the future and I highly recommend him as a philosophy tutor.
