Hywel is an excellent history tutor who really helped our daughter to understand course content she had missed. He is extremely knowledgeable, enthusiastic & supportive. He knew our daughter well enough to adopt the approach to learning that was best for her & even went out of his way to help with a uni application. We are grateful for his input & would highly recommend him.

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 hopes to study History at Cardiff University. Can a tutor help with that level of preparation?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are experienced in helping students prepare for university applications. They can focus on developing the advanced analytical and essay-writing skills that admissions tutors at competitive universities like Cardiff look for, helping your child feel confident and ready for the next step.
With the high standards at schools like Cardiff High and Ysgol Plasmawr, can a tutor help my child keep pace?
Yes, and this is exactly where one-to-one tutoring shines. A tutor provides a supportive, private space where your child can address specific gaps in their knowledge away from peer pressure. This helps them not only keep up but also rebuilds the confidence that can be knocked in a competitive school environment.
How can a tutor help my child balance History A-Levels with the demands of the Welsh Baccalaureate?
We understand this is a real challenge for students in Cardiff. A tutor can help your child work more efficiently, mastering difficult History topics faster. This frees up crucial time and mental energy for their other commitments, including the Welsh Bacc, making their workload feel much more manageable.
Is online tutoring as effective as in-person for a subject like History?
It really is. Our online platform uses video calls and an interactive whiteboard, allowing tutors and students to analyse texts, map out essay plans, and review sources together in real-time. Plus, your child gets access to the best UK tutors, not just those who live nearby, ensuring they find the perfect specialist for them.
What happens if my child doesn't click with the first History tutor we try?
Finding the right personality match is essential, and we want you to be completely happy. 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.
How do you ensure your online History tutors are high quality?
We're incredibly selective. Every tutor is interviewed, background-checked, and has to prove their subject expertise. We only accept 1 in 8 applicants, so you can be sure your child is learning from one of the best tutors in the UK.
Can we find a tutor who specialises in a specific period my child is studying for their GCSEs?
Yes. The great advantage of online tutoring is the incredible breadth of choice. You can use our search filters to find tutors with specific expertise, whether it's Modern World History, the Tudors, or anything else on the curriculum. You're not limited to generalists who happen to live locally.
What technology do we need for an online session?
It's very simple. All your child needs is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our entire learning platform runs in your web browser, so there's no complicated software to install.
How much do online History lessons for a Cardiff student cost?
Our tutors set their own rates, with prices typically starting from £20 per hour. You can view each tutor's price on their profile, so you can find an experienced, high-quality tutor that fits your family's budget.
Can a tutor focus specifically on exam technique and essay writing?
Definitely. Many students understand the historical content but struggle to translate that into top marks. Our tutors are brilliant at teaching students how to structure arguments, analyse sources effectively, and write the kind of essays that examiners want to see.
How quickly might we see a change in my child's confidence?
Often, the biggest change happens quickly. After just a few sessions with a supportive tutor who understands them, many parents tell us they see their child's attitude towards the subject transform. They feel less anxious and more capable, which is the first step towards better grades.
Can we find a tutor who specialises in a specific period my child is studying for their GCSEs?
Yes, we do! We have expert tutors across more than 300 subjects, including core curriculum subjects like Welsh, Maths and Science, as well as languages, music, and even coding. You can find all the support your child needs in one place.
