Living in the New Forest, you know the high standards set by excellent local sixth forms like Brockenhurst College and the competition for top Russell Group universities like Southampton.

Building the Skills That Top Universities Look For
A-Level History is more than just dates and events; it teaches your child how to think critically, analyse complex sources, and build a compelling argument. These are precisely the skills that admissions tutors at competitive universities want to see. Whether they're dissecting the causes of the Tudor Reformation or evaluating historical interpretations, a strong grasp of History demonstrates intellectual curiosity and the ability to handle challenging degree-level work, opening doors to courses in law, politics, journalism, and beyond.

Christopher B
My neurodivergent son had been struggling with his A Levels History — the pressure, organisation, and overwhelming workload were taking a toll. Chris B has made a world of difference. He’s incredibly patient, understanding, and flexible. Chris took time to understand how my son thinks and learns best, which helped build both his confidence and his skills. Most importantly, he helped my son truly enjoy the material and rekindled his love for the subject.
My son not only improved significantly in his subjects but also felt much more positive about his studies. I can’t recommend Chris B highly enough — he’s an exceptional tutor who truly cares.

Abigail H
I cannot recommend Abigail enough! I was feeling really disheartened with history after repeatedly getting C's, but after just a few lessons with her, I could already feel my confidence returning.Abigail taught me essay structures that instantly enabled me to reach the top bands. When I handed in my next essays, my teachers gave me A grades-after I'd been stuck on a B/C for ages! I constantly told my mum I wish I would have found her sooner. She also filled in the content gaps that my school hadn't covered effectively.Overall, the lessons were incredibly enjoyable. Abigail always maintained a positive atmosphere and knew exactly how to encourage me, keep me motivated, and bring out my absolute best in the work I produced.Seriously cannot recommend her enough and will definitely miss our lessons!! <3

Tony D
I only wish we had identified the potential benefits of tuition and found Tony earlier. Tutoring my son for A level history in the 12weeks leading up to exams, my son has described Tony as engaging, interesting, clear, kind with a good sense of humour. He has provided structured and well-planned lessons with excellent supporting materials and increased my son's confidence ahead of the exams. My son commented after just a couple of sessions that he was gaining a much stronger idea of what examiners are looking for and how to approach questions. I feel that Tony has set up my son with fantastic information in a short space of time - now it's just down to my son to apply this in the room.

Lewis D
Lewis is an absolutely outstanding tutor whose cooperative, encouraging, and highly organised approach has made a world of difference. He supported my daughter throughout her GCSEs, completely transforming her confidence in a subject she previously found incredibly difficult to grasp.
Right from our very first session, Lewis brilliantly assessed her main areas of weakness.
He has a fantastic ability to break down complex, daunting topics into digestible, bite-sized pieces. Within a remarkably short space of time, he began building her skills up step-by-step.
Thanks to the flawless structures and thorough model answers he provided, even the daunting 16-mark questions became second nature to her.
I cannot recommend Lewis highly enough—thanks to his incredible support, my daughter's exam worries are officially history!

Our son Daniel was very grateful for the lesson with Augustus. He really enjoyed it and says that it helped him a lot in preparing for his History exam.
He also mentions that he would like to continue studying history with Augustus in the future.

Shannon S
Shannon has been an outstanding tutor and as a parent I genuinely couldn’t have hoped for better. She has supported my son not only during lessons but also outside lesson time, guiding him through his GCSE History preparation with real care and commitment. Her subject knowledge is remarkable and she covered the full content quickly while boosting his confidence and exam readiness. I’m certain her efforts will reflect in his results. Thank you so much, Shannon.
