Rory F
Rory is tutoring my son for his A level History and has been superb in his support from the get go. Rory has helped him understand the essay writing structure and technique distinctions between GCSE and A level. Rory's lessons are well planned and his advice and guidance tailored to detailed understanding of topic content and maximising the knowledge gleaned to various exam questions e.g. the difference between just describing and actual argument / evidence evaluation. Rory is very approachable and provides feedback to parents on how well lessons have progressed and, importantly, where the biggest opportunities are for the student ahead of their set homework. I would strongly recommend Rory as a tutor.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is aiming for a top university like Oxbridge or LSE. How can an online tutor help them stand out in such a competitive environment?
We understand the pressure. Our tutors specialise in stretching students beyond the syllabus. They focus on developing the sophisticated analytical and essay-writing skills that top universities look for, helping your child to form original arguments and articulate their ideas with clarity and confidence, giving them a real edge.
Is online tutoring as effective as meeting a tutor in person?
Absolutely. Many families find it's even better. There's no travel time, and your child can learn from the comfort of home. More importantly, it gives your central-london student access to the very best History specialists from across the UK, not just whoever happens to live nearby. Our interactive tools make lessons engaging and collaborative.
Can a tutor help my child use London's local historical sites, like the museums or Parliament, to support their learning?
That's a fantastic way to bring History to life. Whilst our tutors don't conduct in-person visits, they can absolutely help your child process what they've seen. They can suggest what to look for on a family trip to the British Museum, for example, and then discuss the artefacts and their significance in the next online session.
What if my child doesn't click with their first History tutor?
It's really important that your child feels comfortable and understood, so we make it easy to switch. If the first session isn't the right 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 that simple.
How do you ensure your History tutors are qualified and safe to work with?
We take this extremely seriously. We have a rigorous selection process and accept only 1 in 8 tutors who apply. Every tutor is interviewed by a member of our team, has their ID verified, and undergoes a DBS background check before they can teach on our platform.
How much do online History tutors for students in central-london cost?
Our tutors set their own rates, typically starting from £15 an hour. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and the level of study. You can easily filter by price when you search, so you can find an amazing tutor who fits your budget.
Can a tutor help specifically with exam technique for GCSE or A-Level History?
Yes, this is one of the most common reasons parents seek our help. Our tutors are experts in the exam requirements for all major boards. They can work with your child on everything from source analysis and time management to structuring high-scoring essays.
How flexible is scheduling around a busy central-london school and social life?
Very flexible. Because our tutors are based all over the UK, you'll find a wide range of availability, including evenings and weekends. You arrange session times directly with your tutor, making it easy to fit lessons around sports, clubs, and family commitments.
How will I know if my child is actually making progress?
Our tutors provide regular feedback, and you can chat with them anytime through our messaging system. The biggest sign, though, is often a change in your child's confidence. You'll see them feel more prepared for tests, contribute more in class, and feel less anxious about their work.
Do you offer tutoring for other subjects besides History?
We do! We have expert tutors across hundreds of subjects and skills. Whether your child needs support in maths or science, wants to learn a language, or is curious about coding or learning the guitar, we can help connect you with the right person.
Do your tutors cover all levels of History?
Yes, we have tutors who specialise in all stages of the educational journey. Whether your child is just starting to study History at KS3, preparing for their GCSEs, or tackling complex A-Level topics, we can match you with a tutor who has the right experience.
Can a tutor help specifically with exam technique for GCSE or A-Level History?
You can get started today. Simply search for History tutors, review their profiles and reviews from other parents, and send a message to the ones you like. Many tutors reply within a few hours, and you could have your first session booked within a day or two.
Have a great first lesson.
