Brilliant History tutors who you’ll really click with.
Our experienced tutors take the time to understand where each student needs to focus and their preferred way of learning. They make a measurable difference – 90% of all students improve by at least one grade.
My child is aiming for the University of Bristol. Can a tutor help with the specific analytical skills they'll need?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are experienced in preparing students for top universities. They can focus specifically on the high-level essay writing, source analysis, and critical thinking skills that admissions tutors at institutions like the University of Bristol and UWE look for, giving your child the confidence to apply.
My child attends a competitive Bristol school like Cotham. How can a tutor complement their classroom learning?
We understand the dynamic of Bristol's excellent schools. A tutor's role isn't to replace school, but to enhance it. They provide a private space to go over topics your child might not have fully grasped in a busy class, to practise essay techniques, or to explore areas of history they're passionate about, all at their own pace and without pressure.
Is online tutoring as effective as having someone come to our home in Bristol?
Yes, and in many ways, it's better. Online tutoring offers the same dedicated, one-to-one support but with far more flexibility. Your child can learn from the comfort of home, and you get access to a UK-wide network of subject specialists, not just who happens to live nearby. Our interactive tools make lessons just as engaging as being in the same room.
Can a tutor help my child use Bristol's local history to enrich their studies?
What a great idea! Yes, a good tutor can definitely help your child connect their curriculum to the rich history on their doorstep, from Brunel's engineering marvels to the city's complex trading past. Using local examples can make topics more tangible and memorable, and it's a fantastic way to deepen their understanding and passion for the subject.
What happens if my child doesn't click with their first History tutor?
Finding the right personality match is crucial, and we want you both to feel comfortable. If the first session isn't a perfect fit, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover the cost of your first lesson with a new tutor. It's important to us that your child feels supported and understood.
My child loves history but hates writing essays. Can a tutor help with that specific skill?
This is a very common challenge, and it's exactly where a one-to-one tutor can make a huge difference. They can break down the process of planning, structuring, and writing a compelling historical essay into manageable steps, building your child's confidence and turning a point of anxiety into an area of strength.
How do you vet your History tutors to ensure they are high quality?
We're very selective. Only 1 in 8 tutors who apply are accepted onto our platform. Every tutor is background-checked, and we interview them to assess their subject knowledge and teaching skills. We look for passionate educators who are brilliant at making their subject come alive for students.
Can we get help with specific exam boards, like AQA or Edexcel History?
Yes. Our tutors have experience with all major UK exam boards, including AQA, Edexcel, and OCR. You can check a tutor's profile to see which exam boards they specialise in, ensuring your child gets support that's perfectly aligned with what they're studying in school.
How flexible is scheduling? My child has after-school clubs several days a week.
Flexibility is one of the biggest benefits of online tutoring. You can arrange sessions at times that suit your family's busy schedule, whether that's evenings, weekends, or during school holidays. You agree on times directly with your tutor, so it fits around other commitments.
How much do online History lessons for a student in Bristol typically cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and the level of study (e.g., GCSE or A-Level). Tutors set their own rates, which are clearly displayed on their profiles. This allows you to find an excellent, affordable tutor who fits your budget.
Beyond core subjects, do you offer tutoring for other skills?
We do! Whilst we have fantastic tutors for maths, English, science and history, we also have experts who teach everything from coding and musical instruments to languages and art. It's all about helping your child explore their interests and build new skills.
How do you vet your History tutors to ensure they are high quality?
It's very simple. All your child needs is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our online classroom is easy to use and has features like an interactive whiteboard to make lessons engaging and collaborative.
