About David
Hi there, my name is David. I’ve taught philosophy and politics at two Russell Group universities over the past three and a half years, and I’m an experienced examiner, having marked and moderated close to a thousand essays. I’ve also published research in leading academic philosophy journals. I hold a PhD in Politics and International Studies from the University of Warwick, an MSc. in political theory from London School of Economics and Political Science, and a BA with first class honours from Oxford University. My PhD was nominated for the 2025 Political Studies Association's Sir Ernest Barker Prize for best PhD-thesis in political theory in the UK. For my master's degree, I achieved an overall first and the highest overall mark in two modules. I have deep and extensive knowledge of contemporary and historical political theory, as well as moral and political philosophy. I can help students master both the content and the distinctive style of philosophical argumentation and essay writing, which many find especially challenging. In addition, I have a strong working knowledge of other areas of political science and can support students with essay writing across the full range of politics modules. I can help you get to grips with difficult concepts, improve your essay writing, and succeed in your exam preparation. I also provide detailed guidance on how to meet assessment criteria. Drawing on my experience as an examiner, I help students understand how essays and exam scripts are marked, so they can write with greater clarity, confidence, and impact—and ultimately, achieve stronger results. If you think I might be a good fit, I’d be happy to have an informal chat.

I’m an experienced university teacher in political theory and political philosophy, with several years of seminar-leading and essay-marking under my belt. I’ve taught at both Queen Mary University of London and the University of Warwick, where I led seminars on modules ranging from the history of political thought to advanced topics in political philosophy. My teaching has consistently received excellent feedback from students. At Queen Mary, 85–100% of students rated my seminars “good” or “very good,” with one describing my seminar structure and engagement as “perfect.” At Warwick, 100% of students in my most recent evaluations agreed that my sessions were engaging, well-structured, and encouraged active participation. I create inclusive, focused learning environments that help students deepen their understanding of politics and philosophy. I also offer expert support with essay writing across the humanities and social sciences. Having marked close to 1,000 university essays, I know what markers are looking for—and I can help with structure, clarity, argumentation, and how to demonstrate originality. Whether you're preparing for exams, working on coursework, or just looking to get to grips with key thinkers and concepts, I’ll tailor sessions to your needs. I tutor students at university and school level, both online and in person (in London).
