One of the oldest academic disciplines in the world, philosophy has changed a lot since its Ancient Greek founders walked barefoot through cities and gathered on picturesque hills. But in other ways, it hasn't changed so much at all. Consider the big questions alongside giants from the past like Socrates, Plato and the dozens of more contemporary philosophers. Introducing key concepts and schools of thought from throughout the history of philosophy, this course also includes a key focus on the development of critical thinking and argumentation. What is a good argument? What is real? How should we be governed? What is art? Students explore the parameters of ‘the philosophical’ and investigate the place of philosophy in everyday life. This hugely stimulating subject equips students with key transferable intellectual skills and provides an unforgettable academic experience.

The online program covers the fundamental stages of university-level inquiry, including advanced research methods, critical thinking and academic writing. On the program you will deep dive into a specific aspect of any subject or topic you choose, which you will develop and refine with your expert tutor. The course focuses on mastering the essential skills for university-level study and concludes with a final thesis to showcase your findings.

Research Project (5 hours)

Students choosing our research project must first choose an academic bundle of 10, 20 or 40 hours in their chosen subject and then also select the research project add-on. Your tutor will work with you to design a project as the focus of your academic tuition. The research project add-on comprises sessions specifically focussed on the skills you will need to hone at university level as well as preparing you for a formal presentation, which you will make to an independent academic at the end of your course. Following your presentation you will receive a research project certificate and report from your course tutor.

Exam and Interview Prep (5 hours)

Do you have a very particular goal in mind? An exam or set of exams that you are focussed upon or a particular interview or set of interviews that you would like to prepare for? Our exam and interview prep classes are designed to do two things. The first is to ensure you have the key skills to succeed: revision techniques and exam preparation for example or public speaking and presentation skills. The second is to pair that skillset with the particular knowledge that will be relevant in the exam(s) or interview(s) you are targeting. And that is where our bespoke packages come into their own – you will be paired with tutors that have both particular subject knowledge as well as the skills you will require to succeed.

Study Skills (5 hours)

What does it take to succeed in university and in life? How can you take care of yourself, emotionally and psychologically, while doing your best every step of the way? Complement your passion for learning with concrete skills to help you thrive and succeed, through sessions covering everything from revision techniques and exam preparation, to essay writing, interview skills and more.

Leadership Skills (5 hours)

What does it take to be a young leader and global citizen in today’s world? In a world as bustling and busy as ours is today, stepping up to make a difference can be a daunting task. Through this online course, students consider questions of leadership, youth involvement, the role of the internet and social media in 21st-century leadership, global vs. local engagement, and how leadership can be used to make the world a better, kinder place. In parallel to these theoretical discussions, students are challenged to consider the most important issues facing the world today and to develop their own forms of leadership. Workshops on public speaking, presentation skills, interview skills, exam and revision help, academic writing, and more, will reinforce leadership discipline and ideals and help tomorrow’s young leaders to achieve their goals!

This was honestly an experience I will never forget. On the day I arrived I was a bit shy but after talking with people I realized we were all in the same boat. I have learnt a lot about peoples different cultures and their livelihoods. I have made lifelong friends from all over the world! And finally I have met supervisors and teachers who made me feel safe and comfortable.

Reach Cambridge was an incredible experience for our daughter. She made friends from all over the world, and had so much fun exploring the city of Cambridge. The teachers and classes were engaging and interesting. The life sciences courses, in particular, got her really excited to study medicine in college. We’re so happy she joined Reach Cambridge this summer. Thank you for all you did to answer our questions and to make the journey and experience easier despite the pandemic. Our daughter had a fantastic time!
