Elandra G
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 wants to apply to a very competitive sixth form in East London. Can a tutor really help their History GCSE grade?
Absolutely. That's one of the main reasons parents come to us. Our tutors are experts in the GCSE curriculum and exam requirements. They can work with your child on specific areas, from essay structure to source analysis, to help them gain the confidence and skills needed to secure the top grades those sixth forms look for.
With universities like Queen Mary nearby, how can tutoring ensure my child's historical analysis is strong enough for a top application?
Our tutors, many of whom are graduates from Russell Group universities themselves, excel at this. They help students move beyond just describing events to analysing their significance and constructing sophisticated arguments – exactly what top universities want to see in a personal statement and at A-Level.
Is online tutoring as effective as in-person for a discussion-based subject like History?
Yes, and in many ways, it's better. Our online classroom has interactive whiteboards perfect for analysing texts and timelines together. The focused, one-to-one environment encourages students to voice their opinions and ask questions they might not in a busy classroom, leading to deeper understanding and confidence.
How do you ensure tutors are qualified to teach History?
We're very selective – only 1 in 8 tutors who apply are accepted. We look for brilliant communicators with deep subject knowledge. Every tutor is interviewed by a subject specialist and undergoes a background check, so you can be sure your child is learning from a true professional.
What if my child doesn't get on with their first History tutor?
Finding the right fit is the most important thing. We have a first lesson guarantee, so if it doesn't feel like 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 long are the online tutoring sessions?
Sessions are typically one hour long, which we find is perfect for covering a topic in depth without losing focus. However, you can arrange different session lengths directly with your tutor to fit your child's needs and schedule.
Can we get help with a specific History topic my child is stuck on?
Of course. That's the beauty of one-to-one tutoring. Whether it's the Tudors, the Russian Revolution, or Civil Rights in the USA, you can find a tutor with specialist knowledge in that area to provide targeted help right when it's needed.
My child needs History help, but is also interested in Politics. Can we find a tutor for both?
Yes, many of our humanities tutors have expertise in multiple subjects like History, Politics, and Sociology. You can view their full profiles to see which subjects they offer, allowing you to find a single tutor who can support your child's various interests.
How much does online History tutoring for a student in East London cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications, but typically range from £25 to £50 per hour. You can filter tutors by price on our website to find an expert who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or long-term contracts.
What technology do we need for online lessons?
It's very simple. All you need is a laptop or tablet with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our online classroom is browser-based, so there's no complicated software to download.
Can a tutor help my child with their History homework and coursework?
Yes, tutors can provide excellent guidance on homework and coursework. They won't do the work for your child, but they will help them understand the requirements, structure their arguments, and develop the skills to produce their own high-quality work.
Can we get help with a specific History topic my child is stuck on?
You could be starting your first lesson within a few days. Simply search for History tutors, message a few who seem like a good fit, and arrange a time that works for you. Many tutors reply within 24 hours.
Have a great first lesson.
Guaranteed.
If things aren’t right with your first lesson just let us know. We’ll pay for
your next lesson with a new tutor – and even help you find them.
