Rory F
Rory is tutoring my son for his A level History and has been superb in his support from the get go. Rory has helped him understand the essay writing structure and technique distinctions between GCSE and A level. Rory's lessons are well planned and his advice and guidance tailored to detailed understanding of topic content and maximising the knowledge gleaned to various exam questions e.g. the difference between just describing and actual argument / evidence evaluation. Rory is very approachable and provides feedback to parents on how well lessons have progressed and, importantly, where the biggest opportunities are for the student ahead of their set homework. I would strongly recommend Rory as a tutor.

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 get into the sixth form at Northampton School for Boys. Can a tutor help with this?
Absolutely. Many parents in Northampton share this goal. Our tutors can focus on strengthening your child's GCSE History performance, building the analytical and essay-writing skills needed to not only secure their place but also to thrive at A-Level. They can help build a strong foundation for a competitive application.
We're aiming for a Russell Group university. Can a tutor really make a difference?
Yes, they can be a huge help. A-Level History is a big step up, and our tutors can guide your child in developing the sophisticated critical thinking and essay skills that top universities look for. They provide the kind of focused support that bridges the gap between school-level work and university-level expectations.
Is online tutoring as effective as meeting a tutor in person?
Yes, and for many families, it's even better. Online lessons use interactive tools like whiteboards and resource sharing, making them just as engaging. The main advantage is access; from your home in Northampton, your child can connect with the perfect History specialist from anywhere in the UK, not just whoever lives nearby.
What if my child doesn't click with the first tutor we try?
Finding the right personality match is crucial, and we want you to be completely happy. 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. It’s that simple.
Do your online tutors know anything about Northampton's local history?
Whilst our tutors are based across the UK, they are experts in the national curriculum that schools in Northampton follow. Many love to make learning relevant by connecting topics to local heritage, like the significance of the Eleanor Cross or the town's role in the English Civil War, whenever it enriches the lesson.
My child is interested in more than just History. What other subjects do you offer?
We have expert tutors across more than 300 subjects! From core academic support in Maths, English, and the Sciences, to learning a new language, mastering a musical instrument, or even coding, we can help your child explore all their interests.
How much does online History tutoring cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, which you can see clearly on their profiles. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and the level of study (e.g., GCSE, A-Level). This allows you to find an excellent, qualified tutor who also fits your family's budget.
How flexible are the lesson times?
Very. That's one of the biggest benefits of online tutoring. You can arrange sessions directly with your tutor for times that suit your family's schedule, whether that's after school, on weekends, or during the holidays. No more rushing to appointments!
How will I know if my child is making progress?
You'll see it in their confidence first! Tutors provide regular feedback, and you can chat with them through our platform. The real proof, however, is when your child starts contributing more in class, feels less stressed about homework, and sees their results improve.
How do you vet your History tutors?
We're very selective – only 1 in 8 applicants make it onto Tutorful. Every tutor is interviewed, has their ID verified, and undergoes a background check. For History, we look for subject matter experts with teaching or tutoring experience who can make the past come alive.
What equipment do we need for an online lesson?
It's very simple. All you need is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our online classroom runs in your browser, so there's no complicated software to install.
How much does online History tutoring cost?
Most students find a one-hour session per week is ideal for consistent progress. However, it's completely flexible. You might want more frequent sessions leading up to an exam, or less frequent ones for general support. You can discuss and agree on the best plan with your tutor.
