Nia H
Approachable and patient History tutor
I am highly experienced after spending 10 years in the classroom teaching History, with 3 of those as Head of Department. I enjoy helping students to prepare for their exams, and have a wealth of knowledge to share having spent time as a GCSE examiner for Edexcel. Exam skills are the key to success, so sessions will pay particular attention to improving written skills! History skills are transferable, so I am willing to tutor students following AQA, Edexcel or WJEC (Eduquas). In my time as a History teacher I taught a wide range of topics at KS3 and KS4. I am happy to tutor GCSE students covering...

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 is hoping to study History at the University of St Andrews. Can a tutor really help with that specific goal?
Absolutely. Many of our History tutors are specialists with experience in university applications. They can help your child develop the advanced essay writing and critical thinking skills that top universities like St Andrews look for, ensuring their passion for the subject shines through in their application and interviews.
How can online tutoring complement the teaching at demanding Fife schools like Madras College?
Our tutors work to support and enhance school learning, not replace it. For a student at a great school, tutoring provides a one-to-one space to dig deeper into topics, clarify anything they're unsure about, and practise exam techniques until they feel completely confident. It’s a powerful partnership that reinforces classroom learning.
Is online tutoring as effective as meeting a tutor in person?
Yes, and for many families, it's even better. Online tutoring gives your child in Fife access to a far wider pool of expert tutors from across the UK, not just whoever is local. With interactive whiteboards, shared resources, and recorded sessions for revision, it’s a focused and flexible way to learn, all from the comfort of home.
How do you ensure your History tutors are high quality?
We're very selective. Only 1 in 8 tutors who apply are accepted onto Tutorful. Every tutor is background-checked, interviewed by our team, and has proven subject expertise. We pick dedicated, inspiring educators who we'd trust with our own children's learning.
What happens if we don't click with the first tutor we try?
Finding the right personality fit is so important. That's why we have our first lesson guarantee. If for any reason you feel the first tutor isn't the perfect match for your child, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover the cost of your first session with a new tutor.
How much do online History tutors for students in Fife cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, typically starting from around £15 per hour. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and the level of study. You can easily filter by price on our website to find a brilliant tutor who fits your budget.
My child also needs help with English. Can we find a tutor for that too?
Of course. We have expert tutors across more than 300 subjects, from core academics like Maths, English, and the Sciences to languages, coding, music, and even life skills. You can find all the support your child needs in one place.
What equipment do we need for online lessons?
It's very simple. All your child needs 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 complex software to install.
How often should my child have a tutoring session?
Most students have one session per week, as this provides consistency and momentum. However, it's completely flexible. You can arrange sessions more or less frequently depending on your child's needs, whether it's for ongoing support or a final push before exams.
Can tutoring help my child feel more confident in History class?
This is one of the biggest changes parents tell us they see. When a child starts to understand a subject in their one-to-one sessions, their confidence soars. They become more willing to ask questions and contribute in class, which creates a positive cycle of learning and engagement.
Are your tutors familiar with the Scottish curriculum, like National 5s and Highers?
Yes. You can filter for tutors who have specific experience with the SQA curriculum. Many of our tutors are experts in preparing students for their National 5, Higher, and Advanced Higher exams, and they tailor their lessons to the specific requirements of the Scottish system.
My child also needs help with English. Can we find a tutor for that too?
It's straightforward. Simply use the search function on our website to find History tutors. You can read their profiles, watch introduction videos, and check reviews from other parents. Once you've found a few you like, you can message them directly to ask questions and book your first online session.
