My philodendron got super sunburnt after I moved it to a new window before leaving for vacation. How can I help it recover?

My best advice would be to cut off the dead leaves and place it in a spot that gets direct sunlight only in the evening, or has indirect bright light for most of the day.

The good news is they are pretty resilient. Just move it to A bright room with indirect light and remove the dead leaves. It should come back on its own.
