Philosophy · Terminale (final year of lycée)
Philosophy in Terminale (the final year of lycée) ends with a four-hour written exam: a choice of three questions, two essays and one text analysis. The curriculum covers seventeen topics, from consciousness to truth, and a list of authors. The aim is not to know everything but to think through a specific question rigorously, which is learned on real papers, corrected in detail.

In Terminale, a philosophy tutor who corrects in detail and has papers rewritten provides what a group of thirty-five at school cannot.

The curriculum
The exam is long: analysing the question, planning, writing, rereading. Practising in real time teaches students how to pace their effort.
Everything happens within a few months, without the years of learning other subjects enjoy. Every corrected paper counts.
Philosophy is a final written exam taken by every student. A good mark there weighs on the overall result.
Rates
The rate shown is the final price paid by the family, NOEO commission included. It varies from tutor to tutor, and nothing is added on top: no application fee, no matching fee, no service fee.

School success and study choices
A good method for the philosophy essay does not consist in mechanically applying a three-part plan. You first need to understand exactly the question asked, define its terms, bring out the problem it contains, then build a step-by-step answer based on relevant arguments, distinctions, examples and references. At the baccalauréat (the French school-leaving exam), the essay therefore assesses less the ability to recite a course than the ability to use your knowledge to deal with a specific question. The priority is simple: every stage of the paper must move the problem closer to a solution.
Private tutoring
In Terminale (the final year of lycée), private tutoring is effective when it targets a specific difficulty (a specialism, Philosophy, the Grand oral). Start in September for a gap identified in Première, or after the first assessments if the level is uncertain. One session a week is often enough for a targeted need, avoiding overloading an already busy timetable.
Methods and revision
A realistic revision schedule starts from the exact content to master, not from a number of hours. List the concepts, sort them by how well you know them, spread recall and exercises across the slots you genuinely have available, and test yourself in conditions close to the real test. Always leave a little slack to absorb the unexpected.
Frequently asked questions
It is a four-hour written exam: the candidate chooses one of the three questions set, two essay questions and one text analysis.
No: a few well-understood authors and a few precise examples are enough. The tutor helps build up a stock suited to the student.
By writing regularly, even introductions on their own, and having every piece of work corrected. Progress comes from repeating the skill, not from reading alone.
The curriculum is narrower there, with fewer topics, but the exam requires the same method. Specify the track from the first conversation.
