Kevin has been a very supportive and understanding tutor for my daughter who is currently studying A-level History. He has an impressive knowledge of Russian history and really brings it alive when he talks about it. He has really helped my daughter with her essay technique, particularly when answering extract questions. This has really helped her grow in confidence and feel equipped to answer exam-style questions well.

Gave thoughtful and concise advice for my A Level studies in English and History and helped me to an A* in English NEA

Eloise has been amazing. My daughter was really struggling with a certain topic of History. After a few sessions with Eloise she understood it a whole lot better, to the point that it helped her to achieve a higher than expected grade in her A-Level mock exam. We will definitely be going back to Eloise in the future if she has similar topics that she needs extra tuition with. Thanks so much Eloise !!

We’ve been using Claire as an online history tutor for the past year and she’s been brilliant. I was really unsure about going online – Liv had only ever worked with local tutors who came to the house, so this felt like a bit of a leap. But we struck gold. Claire’s approachable manner gave us the reassurance to give it a go, and now, 45+ lessons later, we couldn’t be happier. More importantly, my daughter couldn’t be happier. According to Liv, a lesson with Claire felt like a conversation, not a scripted run-through of the curriculum. Liv would choose the topic, talk about what she was covering at school, and together they’d explore it. Through chat and a few simple exercises, Claire helped her fill in the gaps and build her confidence. At the time of writing, Liv has just finished her History A-level and says all three papers went really well. Whatever the result, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Claire to anyone looking for help with History. And if you're unsure whether online tutoring works, I’d say give it a go – it worked brilliantly for us.

We found a gem when we found Peter to tutor my son for History GCSE. He is very knowledgeable and has a passion for History which inspires his students. Peter is very professional and always well prepared. This is evident in the delivery of his lessons and how he fully engaged my son in history discussions. He provided loads of useful tips as well as notes which can be used for revision. He really went above and beyond to help my son. He's flexible, scheduling catch up appointments when life gets in the way. I cannot recommend Peter highly enough!

We are incredibly grateful to Ethan for the support he provided our daughter in her History studies. His patient, encouraging approach really helped boost her confidence and deepen her understanding of the subject. He not only helped improve her knowledge but also taught her valuable exam techniques that made a real difference. I would highly recommend Ethan to any student who needs to elevate their knowledge — he brings out the best in his pupils and helped our daughter reach her full potential. Thank you, Ethan!

Great help and really dedicated, organised lessons. I really recommend Taurus as a tutor.

I enjoyed learning A Level History with Joe. He’s very patient and helpful and is always happy to clarify any questions. I have become much more confident with the subject under his guidance. Thank you!
