From Hadrian's Wall to a Durham Degree: Why History Really Matters in Newcastle
Living in the North East, your child is surrounded by history, from Roman forts to the cradle of the Industrial Revolution. But excelling in History for GCSE and A-Level is about more than facts; it’s about crafting compelling arguments and analysing complex sources. These are precisely the skills that make an application stand out to selective schools and admissions tutors at leading universities. Mastering History teaches your child to think critically and write persuasively – abilities that will open doors for the rest of their life.

David J
Experienced History Tutor
When it comes to History, I have always loved the subject, leading me to secure my place at the University of Leeds and to follow through my degree and gain a 2:1. While doing so, I had a fantastic time living in Leeds, which is why I came back to live here. My focus was on the British Empire, but having studied History all the way through school and university, my experience with the subject is very broad. For example I studied Britain from 1880-1980 and Nazi Germany at A Level, and American foreign policy and race relations and the Russian Revolution at GCSE. History is one of the most important...

Amelia T
Passionate History tutor
I’m a tutor because I genuinely love it. I’ve been tutoring since 2016 (one-to-one and small groups), and I’m big on making learning feel less like a punishment and more like, “Oh… I can do this.” I’m patient, upbeat, and a bit of a professional translator of “confusing school wording” into plain English. If a student is anxious, overwhelmed, or convinced they’re “bad” at a subject, I’m the person who will gently prove them wrong — step by step, without judgement, and with a few laughs along the way. Progress matters, but confidence is usually the thing that unlocks it. My academic background ...

Louise S
Louise was such an amazing tutor! I really struggled with my confidence in History due to my school teachers being poor, but Louise’s support allowed me to be stronger in class and in my essay writing. She helped me understand the structure required for OCR A level history, something which had always been difficult for me. Thanks to Louise, I was able to achieve the grades to get into my top choice university!

James F
James is a fantastic tutor with a massive range of knowledge and a very high level of professionalism. When I first sought out a tutor, my grades were faltering in both History and Politics, but in about 7 months of having James as my tutor, I just opened my results envelope to see A*A*A! Because he took the time to patiently teach me exactly how to structure an A* essay for both History and Politics, I am confident that this is why there were no tears on results day. Thank you James!
