Hywel B
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 attends a comprehensive in County Durham. Can a tutor really help them compete for a place at Durham University?
Absolutely. That's precisely where online tutoring can be a game-changer. We connect students in County Durham with specialist tutors from across the UK, including those with experience in helping applicants to Russell Group universities. They can provide the focused, advanced support with essay technique and critical analysis that helps an application stand out.
How can an online tutor help my child use County Durham's local history to their advantage?
That's a fantastic way to show genuine interest. A skilled tutor can help your child explore County Durham's unique heritage—from Roman forts to its mining past—and use it as a case study in essays or their personal statement. This demonstrates independent thought and a deeper connection to the subject, which is highly valued by universities.
Is online tutoring as effective as meeting a tutor in person?
Yes, and for many families, it's even better. Online lessons offer the same dedicated, one-to-one focus but with far more flexibility. Your child can learn from home, and you get access to the very best UK tutors, not just whoever happens to live nearby. Our interactive whiteboard and other tools make sessions just as engaging as being in the same room.
What happens if my child doesn't click with their first History tutor?
Finding the right fit is everything to us. We have a first lesson guarantee, so if you don't feel the tutor is the perfect match for any reason, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk. We will cover the cost of your first session with a new tutor.
How much do online History tutors for students in County Durham 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 (e.g., GCSE, A-Level, university). You can easily filter by price on our website to find an excellent tutor who fits your budget.
How are your tutors vetted?
We're incredibly selective. We only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply. Every tutor undergoes an application review, a subject-specialist interview, and must have a valid DBS check. We ensure they are not just knowledgeable, but also brilliant, caring teachers.
My child's schedule is already packed. How flexible is the scheduling?
That's one of the biggest benefits of online tutoring. You can arrange lessons for evenings, weekends, or during school holidays – whenever suits your family best. You're not tied to a single tutor's local availability, so you have a much wider choice of session times.
What technology do we need for online lessons?
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 browser-based, so there's no complicated software to install.
Is tutoring only for students who are struggling with History?
Not at all. Tutoring is fantastic for students who are already doing well and want to be stretched. A tutor can introduce advanced concepts, prepare them for competitive university entrance exams like the HAT for Oxford, and help them develop a real passion for the subject beyond the curriculum.
Do you offer tutoring in subjects other than History?
Yes, we offer tutoring in over 300 subjects. From core academic subjects like Maths, English and the Sciences, to languages, musical instruments, and even coding. We're here to support your child's learning across all their interests.
How long does it take to see an improvement in my child's grades?
Every child learns at their own pace, but our data shows that 90% of students improve by at least one grade with regular tutoring. More importantly, parents often tell us they see a boost in their child's confidence and enthusiasm for learning within just a few sessions.
My child's schedule is already packed. How flexible is the scheduling?
Yes, you can. Tutors list their specialisms on their profiles, so you can find someone who is an expert in the exact historical period or topic your child is studying for their GCSEs or A-Levels, whether it's Modern British History or the Tudors.
