Excellent History tutor
I believe that a strong and rigorous History education can be instrumental in changing a child’s life for the positive.

Bringing History to Life
I have a strong, passionate and extensive interest in History. I believe that rather than it be a stodgy subject full of dates and events, it’s actually a living thing as it’s about people, how they thought what they thought and why they thought it and how all that impacts us today. My specialist interest lies in 19th and 20th Century History particularly the First World War - I visit the battlefields of France and Belgium at least twice a year. It's something I think anyone should undertake at least just once to try and appreciate the magnitude of what took place there - it's a moving experience. I a...

Hello, I have just completed my PhD in History at the European University Institute in Florence. My speciality is Modern European and British history since 1800, with a particular focus on the Cold War period, but I can cover any period on the GCSE and A level syllabus.

Supportive History tutor
With a strong academic background and hands-on experience, I am well-equipped to be an effective tutor.
