Each session, we will go through one topic. Examples: - Would a world in which no one ever experienced disappointment be better or worse than the world as it is? [Oxford University Thinking Skills Assessment Section 2 (Philosophy, Politics & Economics)] - Should everyone be paid the same? [oxplore.org, a free educational website created by the University of Oxford designed to allow anyone to engage with complex ideas across a wide range of subjects] Why join? - If you are applying to a UK university, there you go! The most important thing UK universities look for in their interviews, arguably may be critical thinking. - Even if you are applying to an internship, another university or heading straight to the workplace, critical thinking unleashes a lot and it is a necessary and highly valued skill.

Every week, we'll look in depth at GCSE Literature & Language aspects.

1. Ask me if you want me to open more spaces up. 2. I can help you on the spot with SPaG tasks. 3. If you would like help with essay writing, or reading a specific book or something, please let me know in advance, so I can find that copy of the book, prepare an efficient resource / guide to share with you. 4. You are free to challenge me with riddles and everything. 5.

Hey guys, Are you excited for an extremely exciting pre-algebra series! It will contain loads of Christmassy ✨ vibes and we will have loads of fun throughout this series. There will be a clear lesson plan, loads of rewards and loads more! If that doesn't suit you, let me know! We will have loads of investigation work and the whole series will be adapted towards you and your abilities. I will show you so many ways to thrive in pre-algebra, and all the other maths, as if you succeed in pre-algebra, you will thrive in all the maths! A clear lesson plan will be built, but it will be shaped in such a way, it will be extremely adaptive!

In our Debate Summer School we use thought experiments, debates and discussions to sharpen your analytical skills, introduce you to new ideas, and give you the confidence they need to argue effectively. The subjects we discuss and debate on will range from topical issues - for example climate change, to moral problems from everyday life - for example payment for children's work, to big questions which have plagued philosophers for centuries such as the nature of truth and reality for example is there a God? There is no one correct answer – only the ability to ask questions to gain a wider understanding, a range of methods to tackle you with, and the requirement to think logically and give reasons for your arguments. Informal group discussions allow you to get to grips with some challenging ideas in a relaxed environment. You can also make friends. Seminar debates on moral issues such as “Is it wrong to steal if I am poor and hungry?”, “Can it ever be right to kill one person if you save lots of others?”, “Should the government ban smoking?”, “Is animal testing in the name of science OK?” Interactive thought experiments tackling issues such as “How do we know if we’re dreaming” and “What makes me the same person I was yesterday?” and "Is the world an illusion?". The tutor – Jil Shah – has achieved a percentage of 100% throughout her philosophy, religion and ethics course - her students say she is friendly, approachable, and experienced working with people of all ages - whether older than her, the same age or younger! Working larger or smaller groups, they will help students navigate through these fascinating and complex debates, and will explain the issues at the right pace for them. PREREQUISITES: You must know what debate is, must be comfortable to switch on your mic and share your points and you must be willing to attend all the sessions. DEBATE GROUP 2: If you want to be part of group 2, you must have some experience in debate. EQUIPMENT: You must have a pen and paper to take notes! MORE SESSIONS will be added.

Throughout this series, I along with your peers and your self motivation, you will be exposed to different forms of writing. You will most certainly improve your writing! You will be proud of it! Also, for those who need support with their books (if you are already working on them), I can meet you and give tailored feedback! Also, we will participate in loads of competitions, for example Young Writers, and I will not TELL you to change something. I will indirectly give you some constructive feedback on your writing so you can excel. You will also get personalized feedback on one of your pieces every week. HERE ARE SOME REALLY FUN ACTIVITIES EVERY WEEK - - You have to pitch a really terrible product to us and somehow convince us to buy it - Dragon's Den, The Apprentice, Shark Tank Pitching? Also, I will give you some interesting tips! - We each write one sentence and then give our writing to someone else to build upon and see the story at the end! - 60 seconds to write about a random thing - Quick writes - Writing a full story (plot, arc, etc.) in under 10 minutes - Write a story (whole session) - Generate a random phrase and make a story out of it - Generate a random first/last phrase and our stories have to start/end with the phrase! + A ton more activities to do The sessions will be tentative on time, as we will play loads of games and stuff every week! It is supposed to be fun! I want you making lifetime friendships. *I WILL REQUIRE you to send me your best piece of work every week, which I will properly go through and the best pieces of work will be pasted into a "BEST PIECES OF WRITING" word doc, so you can see each other's writing!

Do you need help with Pre-Algebra, to build on your foundations to excel in Algebra I and maybe some that could be used in real life? Within this course, I will aim for you to be secure in number theory (whole numbers, roman numbers, integers, real numbers), factors and multiples (key words and topical practice), ratio and proportion, exponents and square roots, statistics and linear equations (expressions, equations). The full breakdown of sub-topics we will use are listed below! Topic 1: Number Theory Whole Numbers Roman Numerals Integers Rational Numbers Real Numbers Pythagorean Theorem Absolute Value Topic 2: Factors and Multiples Factors Multiples Prime numbers and Composite numbers Prime factorization Topic 3: Linear Equations Algebraic Expressions Solving Linear Systems by Substitution System of Equations Solver Solutions of a Linear Equation Variable expressions Linear Equations Topic 4: Ratio and Proportion Ratio Proportion Topic 5: Exponents and Square Root Fractions Exponents Order of Operations Square root Topic 6: Statistics Mean, Median, Mode Probability *I HAVE NOT added many sessions as of yet (until the 1st session) as I want to see how many people commit **PARTICIPATION IS a must *** I DON'T MIND CHANGING TIME if it is too early in your time zone and if any time works between all of us, I can create an alternative timing for you.

Instead of naming an intended audience, I would rather say, look out for the topics you want to learn and need help with and want to understand. We will play lots of quizizz and I will teach everything in a lecture-like but in a way to build long term memory. ***PARTICIPATION is a must... you need to unmute.
