Subjects
Philosophy
First Year - Third Year Philosophy 314The Philosophy 314 module is about Structuralism and Post-Structuralism. This a notoriously difficult and complex module, but it is also very valuable if you are interested in postmodern Philosophy. I am currently pursuing an Honours degree in Philosophy.
History
First Year - Third Year History 318History was one of my majors for the BA degree that I completed in 2020. I know that most students tend to struggle with the writing and research parts of the module, and not necessarily with the content. I would be more than happy to help you realize your inner historian!
Linguistics

I have a passion for formal Linguistics (Syntax, Morphology, Phonology and Semantics and Pragmatics). I would be more than happy to tutor first year Linguistics, fellow Chomskyians!
