Information about Roderick
Hello! I am a first-class tutor in the arts and humanities, specialising in Philosophy and Religious Studies. I have over seven years of experience at a range of levels, with a consistent track-record of success tutoring and teaching for: GCSE, A Level and University level (undergraduate and postgraduate). With my help, students have obtained places at some of the UKs top universities (e.g. LSE, Durham, KCL) or been able to obtain better grades whilst studying at these universities (e.g. Oxford, KCL). Outside of tutoring work, I am an academic in my own right and have recently been awarded a PhD in Philosophy from the University of Sheffield. Alongside this, I am also in the process of creating an educational programme for schools in conjunction with the Las Casas Institute, based at the University of Oxford.
Availability: I am available at most times, including weekends.
Willing to travel: 5 miles
Experience: I have over seven years of experience teaching within different institutional settings, as well as tutoring in a private capacity. My teaching and tutoring experience is extremely versatile. I have worked with primary aged children as a youth centre residential retreat leader and sports coach; teenagers as a teacher in a secondary school; and young adults as a graduate teaching assistant at the University of Sheffield. This range means that I am well placed to cater and respond to each students specific needs and abilities, adjusting where appropriate. Moreover, I am also able to harness a variety of different teaching styles and strategies to aid the learning process. In addition to this, I am also an examiner for AQA`s Philosophy A Level.
I take great pride in my long-term track record of helping individuals achieve success. In examinations and coursework at GCSE, A Level, and university, my students consistently go on to achieve their desired result. In many cases, this has required them to gain three or four grades in the process. With my support, students have also obtained places at some of the UKs top universities (e.g. LSE, Durham, KCL) or achieve better grades whilst studying at these universities (e.g. Oxford, KCL).
I have tutored the following subjects in the past: (GCSE), Philosophy and Ethics/Religion; English Literature; History; (A Level): Philosophy and Ethics/Religion; History; Politics; (University): Philosophy; Theology; Political Theory; English Literature/Comparative Literature; Critical Theory. This is not an exhaustive list; I am open to tutoring in any subject area which relates to the arts and humanities. Feel free to drop me a message and I will be happy to let you know if I can help.
DBS Check: Yes

Roderick has turned out be everything we were looking for in a Religious Studies A Level tutor. My daughter came away after the first visit with comments like "he`s so Knowledgable and he explained everything so well" etc etc. Needless to say his fee`s are more than justified and he has in only two sessions, enlightened my daughter in a way her Grammar School has failed to do. I Would highly recommend him to any student/parent. Five Star rating without reservation. We came to the end of her tuition on Friday last and took her final RS A Level yesterday. It seems incredible that after so few hours of tutorial with Roderick, she has gone from being unsure, concerned and generally worried about her grasp of the subject, to an extremely knowledgable and confident pupil who came away form the exams feeling great! This would not have been the case had we not found Roderick through the Tutor Hunt site. Finding Roderick when we did was indeed a gift, only matched by the gift Roderick has when tutoring young minds. I just hope that our review helps other parents and their children find Roderick and his wonderful knowledge and teaching style. Many thanks again Roderick and good luck in finding that Lecturing position at a high class university, which is what you deserve.

Roderick has been extremely helpful in assisting my daughter with her Philosophy. He has a deep knowledge of the subject and tailors his preparation and delivery with great care to be as helpful as possible.
