About Gideon
I became passionate about Religious Studies at A-level. My teachers were so energetic and empowering that I threw myself into the subject, achieved high grades, and went to the University of Oxford to study Theology and Philosophy.
That passion has never left me.
After a rich career as a journalist, author of 14 books, and two decades training professionals in communication, I returned to education as a mature student. I completed my PGCE with distinction at the University of East London and now teach RE across all secondary key stages in London.
I know from working in schools that too many bright, curious students are let down by chaotic classrooms, non-specialist teachers, and a system that treats Religious Studies and Philosophy as low-priority subjects. That's why I tutor — to give you the depth, expertise, and individual attention your school can't.
My approach is grounded in evidence-based pedagogy — cognitive load theory, scaffolding, dual coding, and deep questioning. I don't just prepare you for exams. I help you become a genuinely better thinker, which means better grades come naturally.
