Lina H
Professional and inspiring History and English tutor
Maths is usually the subject students struggle with most at school mainly due to the lack of individual help during lessons. Students often don’t ask for help when faced with a topic they find hard and so they develop gaps in their learning, which in itself become problematic later on. In my opinion the first objective of private tutoring in maths should be to systematically deal with those gaps, which are usually identified within the first couple of lessons. Once the gaps are covered, we can then proceed to cover the necessary course material based on individual requirements.I have extensive e...

Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child is at a school in Highbury and wants to apply for History at a top university. Can a tutor help with this specific goal?

Absolutely. Many of our History tutors are graduates from leading universities themselves and have extensive experience helping students with their university applications. They can help your child develop the advanced analytical and essay-writing skills needed to write a standout personal statement and prepare for potential interviews.

How can an online tutor help my child make the jump from GCSE to A-Level History?

The transition from GCSE to A-Level is significant. Our tutors specialise in bridging this gap by focusing on the key skills required, such as handling more complex historical sources, understanding historiography, and developing longer, more analytical essays. They provide a supportive space for students in Highbury to build these new skills with confidence.

Is online tutoring as effective as in-person for a subject like History?

Yes, and for many students, it's even better. Our online classroom has interactive whiteboards for analysing sources, easy document sharing for essay feedback, and session recordings for revision. Crucially, it gives your child in Highbury access to a much wider pool of specialist tutors from across the UK, ensuring you find the perfect match for their needs.

What happens if my child doesn't get on 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 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 are your History tutors vetted?

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 their qualifications verified to ensure they are an expert in their subject. We want to ensure your child is learning from the best.

How much do online History tutors for students in Highbury 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, degree). You can easily filter by price on our platform to find a brilliant tutor who fits your budget.

My child finds writing History essays really difficult. Can a tutor help?

Definitely. This is one of the most common areas where our tutors provide support. They can break down essay structure, teach how to build a strong argument, use evidence effectively, and write with clarity and confidence. They provide practical feedback that makes a real difference to grades.

Can we get help with a specific History topic, like the Russian Revolution or Medieval Britain?

Yes. Our tutors cover a huge range of topics across the school curriculum and beyond. You can view each tutor's profile to see their specialisms and even message them beforehand to ensure they're a great fit for the specific topics your child is studying.

We have a really busy schedule. How flexible is the scheduling?

Very flexible. That's a key benefit of online tutoring. You can arrange sessions for evenings, weekends, or whenever suits your family's schedule. There's no travel time involved, making it much easier to fit quality tutoring into a packed week.

What do we need for an online lesson?

It's simple. All your child needs is a laptop or computer with a webcam and microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our online classroom is browser-based, so there's no software to download. It's designed to be intuitive and easy to use.

Beyond History, what other subjects do you offer?

We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects! From core academic subjects like maths, English, and the sciences to languages, music tuition, and even coding. Whatever your child wants to learn, we're here to help them find a brilliant tutor.

My child finds writing History essays really difficult. Can a tutor help?

You can get started very quickly. Many parents find and book the perfect tutor for their child within 24 hours. You can browse tutor profiles, message them to discuss your child's needs, and book your first session directly on the platform.
