About Me
Hello! My name is Angelos Sofocleous and I have a PhD in Philosophy from the University of York. I also have an MA in Philosophy and a BA in Philosophy and Psychology from the University of Durham. My PhD research was focused on the phenomenology of depression experiences. In particular, I researched how interpersonal relationships are disrupted in experiences of depression by analysing first-person accounts of depression. I specialise in the fields of phenomenology, existentialism, and philosophy of mind. Further, my areas of interest include ancient Greek philosophy, ethics, and epistemology.I have worked as a Graduate Teaching Assistant at the University of York and at the University of Leeds, teaching the following courses: Reason & Argument, Ethics, Ancient Philosophy, Early Modern Philosophy, Knowledge & Perception, and The Mind. I am currently a Tutor in Philosophy for the Centre for Lifelong Learning at the University of York for which I have developed and taught the following courses: Introduction to Philosophy, Existentialism and the Philosophy of Jean-Paul Sartre, Stoicism, Ancient Greek Philosophy, and Current Issues in Philosophy.
For my contributions to teaching, I have received the University of York Vice-Chancellor’s Teaching Award.
I am also an Associate Fellow of the Higher Education Academy (AFHEA).

Pedro
38-year-old PhD student offers classes and tutoring at secondary and university levels for any area of HumanitiesI have taken a few years off to complete my PhD in History and I would not like to stop teaching and learning in the meantime. I guess it is a cliché, but it is amazing what I have learned by teaching. If anything can distinguish me, it is that my personal experience has shown me that, when it comes to learning, complexities such as age are simply that. Experience in national and international schools. Possibility of classes in English (C1).

We will not rely only on theoretical lessons, but we will work on applying exercises that help us understand the linguistic phenomenon or the lesson in general.
José Luis Trujillo
Graduate in Advertising and Marketing, I offer to give review classes for ESO and high school subjectsMy teaching method goes beyond memorization, because I believe that it is necessary to learn any subject from understanding and thus develop learning, to apply it in an exam or work done during the course. My goal is to get students to have an active attitude both in class and when preparing for a test.
I am a person who is passionate about learning and sharing my knowledge, not just for an exam. I also believe that if you are able to foster interest in any subject, the results are achieved organically. My system is to make the content understood in a didactic way and to awaken interest in said content.

Studying is not just about sitting at your desk and starting to memorize; there are some previous steps to take.
Téo
Business school student (EDHEC) gives math and English lessons from middle school to high school in Lille. Experience as a tutor at EDHECI mainly teach math lessons from middle school to high school.
Before starting the lessons, I need to get in touch with the student to know their level, the areas where they want to improve and their objectives.
Depending on the level, I adapt the work seen in class to the different points of improvement and suggest exercises consistent with what the student is stuck on.
At the same time, I go over point by point the elements that were not for the student (in the Ds and the questions) I rework the exercises seen in class.
Finally, and this is the most important, I advise the student on his working methods, with what state of mind to approach the exercises.
I can also provide homework help in subjects other than mathematics: I got 17 in the HEC philosophy exams and I didn't get below 18 in subjects such as SES, Philosophy and history in the BAC.
I recommend at least one math lesson per week in order to take stock of the week; it is regularity that allows progress.
As a Tutor at EDHEC I already have experience of courses with high schools.
I am a calm, composed and educational person.
In terms of math, I got 18 in my math baccalaureate and then I went to a HEC preparatory class at Louis-Le-Grand in advanced math where I had more than 12 hours of math per week.

Oxbridge entrance help and tutoring in essay-based gcse/alevel subjectsRecent graduate of Oxford University, theology and religion. A*s in A levels and 9s at gcses.
Will provide high level tutoring in any subject (ks2-4, gcse, a level etc) related to my degree subject. These include Religious studies, ethics, philosophy, politics, english (literature at a-level, lit and lang gcse). Can offer subject specific teaching, but also more generally essay writing practice, as well as oxbridge interview, personal statement, and entrance exam help, particularly for students in the state sector. While I cannot guarantee success, I will do my best to relay my experiences and hopefully provide students with helpful guidance.
Classes will be catered specifically according to each student, however I will often ask for them to come along with recent examples of written work, or practice papers/questions.
