About Me
I'm a life-long amateur philosopher and professional educator. I love asking big questions about reality, morality, existence and life. I enjoy ideas and concepts, discussions and debates, and I am always keen to explore new and different points of view. Religious Studies and Philosophy recognise these interests, and it is important to keep this in mind when doing the hard work of exam preparation: big questions matter, not just for qualifications, but for life in the world beyond school.
Tutor Experience
Over two decades in secondary schools I have also been involved in teacher training and academic research. I have been an examiner, and I have taught A Level Philosophy (AQA), A Level Religious Studies (various boards) and GCSE Religious Studies (again, various boards). Over the years many of my students have gone on to study Religious Studies, Philosophy or Theology at university.

Testimonials
"He is always engaging and enthusiastic – it was a pleasure to listen in on their lessons. I could tell you how tutoring from Hugo helped boost his grade from a level 3 in his mocks to achieving a Level 8 in the actual exam, but this would only tell you a part of the story. Hugo did much more – he enthused our son for the subject, encouraged him to think more deeply as he responded to questions and to consider the real world implications of abstract subject content. I would unreservedly commend Hugo as a tutor.” Matt R.
