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 hopes to apply to Luton Sixth Form College. Can a History tutor help strengthen their application?
Absolutely. Our tutors can help your child develop the advanced analytical and essay-writing skills that colleges and universities look for. They can focus on building a deep subject knowledge that goes beyond the curriculum, helping them demonstrate the passion and academic rigour needed to stand out.
We're worried our child's school in Luton isn't covering History in enough depth. How can a tutor fill those gaps?
This is a common concern, and where one-to-one tutoring really helps. A tutor can create a personalised plan to reinforce core knowledge and explore topics in greater detail than is often possible in a busy classroom. They ensure your child has a solid foundation, boosting their confidence and preparing them thoroughly for exams.
How does online tutoring actually work? Is it as good as in-person?
It's just as effective, and often more convenient! Sessions take place via video call in our purpose-built online classroom, with interactive whiteboards and document sharing. The biggest advantage is choice: your child in Luton can connect with a top specialist from anywhere in the UK, not just whoever is local.
What if my child doesn't click with the first History tutor we try?
Finding the right personality match is crucial, and we understand that. If the first session isn't a perfect fit, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk, and we will cover the cost of your first lesson with a new tutor. We want you to be completely happy.
Can a tutor connect History lessons to Luton's own heritage?
Many of our tutors love to make history relevant! If your child is interested, a tutor can certainly incorporate aspects of Luton's rich industrial heritage, like the hat trade or the Vauxhall Motors factory, into lessons on broader themes like the Industrial Revolution or social change in Britain.
How do you ensure your tutors are high quality and safe?
We take this very seriously. Only 1 in 8 tutors who apply are accepted. Every tutor is interviewed, has their qualifications checked, and must pass an enhanced DBS background check before they can teach on our platform. Your child's safety and quality of learning are our top priorities.
How much does an online History tutor cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, typically starting from £20 per hour, based on their experience and qualifications. You can easily filter tutors by price on our platform to find an expert who fits your family's budget, with no hidden fees or contracts.
My child's grades are okay, but their confidence in History is low. Can tutoring help with that?
This is one of the biggest transformations we see. The one-to-one attention in a supportive, encouraging environment helps students feel safe to ask questions they might not in class. Celebrating small wins and seeing their understanding grow is a huge confidence booster.
How often should my child have a History lesson?
Most families find a one-hour session per week is ideal for consistent progress, especially when preparing for exams like GCSEs or A-Levels. However, it's completely flexible and can be adapted to your child's specific needs and your family's schedule.
My child loves History, but what about other subjects? Do you offer tutoring for things like science or languages?
Yes, we do! We have expert online tutors across more than 300 subjects, from core GCSEs like Maths and Biology to languages, music, and even coding. We can help support your child's learning across their entire curriculum.
Can a tutor help with just one specific area, like essay technique?
Definitely. Our tutors are brilliant at providing targeted support. Whether your child needs help structuring essays, analysing historical sources, or revising a particular topic for an upcoming test, the lessons will be tailored to their exact requirements.
How much does an online History tutor cost?
Our tutors provide regular feedback, and you can communicate with them directly through our platform. You'll also see it in your child's growing confidence, their improved marks on schoolwork, and how they start talking about the subject with more enthusiasm.
