Max S
Engaging and passionate History tutor
I’m an engaging and passionate tutor of History based in South London. I specialise in Contemporary History (French Revolution onwards), with particular expertise in British, American, Russian and German history. I like to create very clear frameworks and agendas for what we need to achieve within our allotted time together. However, within that framework I like to employ a very relaxed, informal style. Sessions are interactive and free from rigidity without being too discursive. I believe in ultimately ‘coaching’ students to arrive at their own answers and conclusions through useful prompts, quest...

Attentive and patient History tutor
Hi there! I’m Elandra, an undergraduate at University College London (UCL). I completed my IB Diploma in 2022. Having so recently completed my secondary school studies, I am able to relate to students on academic challenges they might encounter. I am able to work closely alongside them to develop their confidence and ability to tackle challenges. I achieve this through building a relationship with each of my students; each tutoring session is wholly cultivated to best suit their needs. I may also occasionally set small tasks outside of lesson time to encourage the development of independent learning i...

Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child is aiming for a competitive school like Graveney. Can a tutor help with the specific History skills needed?

Absolutely. Our tutors are experienced in helping students develop the analytical and essay-writing skills that selective schools look for. They can focus on building a strong foundation, improving exam technique, and fostering a genuine enthusiasm for the subject that will help your child stand out.

Is online tutoring as effective for a subject like History as face-to-face?

Yes, and in many ways, it's even better. Tutors can use interactive whiteboards to deconstruct essay plans, share historical sources instantly on screen, and use engaging digital resources. Plus, your child in Clapham can connect with a specialist from anywhere in the UK, all without leaving home.

We're thinking about top London universities like UCL or King's. Can tutoring help prepare for that level?

Definitely. Our History tutors, many of whom are graduates from top universities themselves, can help your child think critically and analytically at a level required for A-levels and university applications. They can guide them in developing nuanced arguments that go beyond the curriculum.

What if my child doesn't click with their first History tutor?

We know that the right relationship is key. If the first session isn't a perfect fit, please email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk. We will happily cover the cost of your first lesson with a new tutor to ensure you find the right match.

How do you ensure your History tutors are high quality?

We're very selective – only 1 in 8 applicants make it onto our platform. Every tutor is background-checked, interviewed, and has proven subject expertise. We look for passionate educators who know how to make History engaging and accessible for students online.

Can a tutor use London's history to make lessons more engaging?

That's a fantastic idea and many of our tutors love to do it! By connecting topics like the Romans, Tudors, or the Second World War to London's own landmarks and stories, they can make history feel real and exciting for your child.

My child also needs help with maths. Can we find a tutor for that too?

Of course. We have expert online tutors across more than 300 subjects, from core academics like maths and science to languages, music, and even coding. You can find all the support your child needs right here.

How much do online History lessons cost?

Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and the level of study. Tutors set their own rates, which you can see clearly on their profiles. This allows you to find an excellent, experienced tutor that fits your family's budget.

Do tutors cover specific exam boards like AQA or Edexcel for GCSE History?

Yes. Many of our tutors specify which exam boards they have the most experience with on their profiles. This means you can find someone who knows the curriculum, assessment objectives, and exam question styles your child will face.

We have a really busy schedule with after-school clubs. How flexible is the booking?

Online tutoring is designed for busy families. You can schedule sessions at times that suit you – whether that's evenings, weekends, or during school holidays. You arrange times directly with your tutor to find a rhythm that works for everyone.

What technology do we need for an online lesson?

It's very simple. All you need is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our online classroom is easy to use and has all the tools needed for an interactive and effective lesson.

My child also needs help with maths. Can we find a tutor for that too?

The standard session length is one hour, which we find is perfect for covering a topic in depth without losing focus. However, you can discuss different session lengths with your tutor if your child would benefit from something shorter or longer.
