About Herbert
Over the course of my studies I have taken a wide range of modules within the broadly understood humanities, mostly centred around European history and politics, but including law, anthropology, psychology and literary theory. This, coupled with my interest in philosophy and economics enables me to say with confidence that I can address a range of challenges within the humanities. I specialise in political theory and how it manifests in medieval literature. I am in fact shortly beginning a PhD researching ideology of power and state formation in romance cycles.

Every challenge requires a dedicated solution but I feel the best way to help people cope with coursework is to make them understand the core concepts and issues and embolden them to forward their own judgements on the matter. To this end I favour a question-and-answer style of tutoring whereby one would arrive at their own conclusions. I would however be delighted to fill other roles, such as lecturer, proof-reader or researcher.

Hubert is a skilful communicator and a true empath, sensing immediately when the student is loosing focus or not following the material haha =D I relied on his services to get me up to speed with the Reformation and I can say that he certainly has a deep understanding of history, politics, economics, historical theories, religious doctrine and a host of other things that I can't even name. But not only is he extremely knowledgeable: you can really benefit from his knowledge as he communicates it so well. For the first time in a long time I really felt like I was learning something and understanding it. A great feeling for sure and it was all enabled by this guy so check him out :)
Hubert is an exceptional teacher and has helped me immensely. He basically carried me through all the material and helped me research all the relevant topics. When it came to write my essays, a task which I had no confidence in on account of past failures, he really put in the work to make me submit something I was proud of to call my own. Hubert gets my 100% trust and seal of approval.
Herbert and I took a history module together and I can fully vouch for his passion for the subject. I often saw him at lectures and even seminars from other courses, sometimes as exotic as Italian studies. I could hardly point you in the direction of someone more universally rounded, with almost encyclopaedic knowledge and frightfully driven, however despite those impressive qualities Herbert was always very modest and ready to extend a helping hand at short notice to anyone who needed it. I personally benefited from this generosity of his when he proofread my essay and offered comments that enabled me to achieve the next level of clarity and precision and culminated in me achieving a first, on no small part thanks to his guidance. I could not recommend him more and I am certain he is the best man for the job.
When I first met him I was in dire straits, struggling to structure my summative essay on Weber and Mill. He not only helped me organise my thoughts, teaching valuable techniques that I would use many times over in the coming years, but also genuinely advanced my understanding of this and other topics through his interrogative method. Honestly, anything this guy asks for in exchange for a lesson is still a bargain, because he not only enables you to get the job done but leaves you with all the tools and the knowledge how to use them :)
