Alice A
History Tutor - Making learning memorable
* Book your child in for SUMMER BOOSTER sessions TODAY*
- I have had a HUGE increase this year in last minute requests for support, even for the day before the exam...
- Many of these young people have been worrying about their GCSEs and A Levels behind closed doors and parents have realised too late that they need support.
- If your child is in secondary school or 6th form now and you have any doubt about their independent study skills please consider summer sessions.
- I hear all too often that the young people I am working with do not have the skills in order to attempt independent study....

Eloise S
We would really recommend Eloise as an A level history tutor. She is patient, encouraging and explains things in a really engaging way. Our son found her lessons interesting and well-planned. Eloise made sure our son felt confident for his exams. She also recorded lessons so he was able to refer back to lessons for his revision. We're really grateful for all her support.

Patrick S
Worked with Patrick on A level history. I have SEND, so needed someone dependable, with good interpersonal skills. Patrick fitted the bill entirely. Some of his strengths:
Provides really clear explanations; didn't make me feel inadequate for needing support.
Interactive teaching style; not a lecture, or reading out a prepared sheet. He has the knowledge, checks understanding and responds to the issues raised.
Good combination of professional and friendly; lessons were not a drain.
Flexible with times and dates. Timely responses to messages and 100% reliable.
I would highly recommend :)

Kevin A
Kevin was an incredible tutor throughout my Durham History degree and had a huge impact on both my academic confidence and success, particularly with my dissertation. His guidance, feedback, and support were always thoughtful, constructive, and encouraging. He was always able to reply super quickly, and he put in the utmost effort into every lesson.
He has a real talent for helping students develop their ideas and think critically, essentially enhancing your thought too. His enthusiasm for history and genuine investment in his students' success made a lasting difference to my university experience.
I am extremely grateful for all of his help and would highly recommend him to any student.

Paul H
We had Paul H for 9 months in the second year of our son's A'Level History course. Paul is incredibly knowledgeable and experienced about all areas of our son's subjects. His lessons were information loaded but very digestible and tailored to our son's specific needs. Paul provided important information about exam structure and questions which was invaluable. We would highly recommend Paul.

Josh was my daughter's GCSE History tutor earlier this year and leading up to her exams. She found his sessions to be very (very) helpful. Josh was extremely good at finding the gaps in her knowledge base and bridging this into exam questions and technique. She found Josh to be very kind, understanding, friendly and easy to speak with. Overall, she was super pleased. Thank you Josh!
