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...

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 aiming for Shrewsbury School. Can a tutor provide the specific analytical skills they'll need?
Absolutely. Many of our History tutors are specialists in preparing students for competitive school entrance exams and scholarships. They focus on the exact skills required, such as advanced source evaluation and constructing nuanced arguments, to help your child perform at their very best and feel confident in their application.
We're worried about the step-up to university-level history. Can a tutor help with Oxbridge applications?
Yes. We have tutors, including graduates from Oxford and Cambridge, who have first-hand experience with the application process. They can provide invaluable guidance on personal statements, admissions tests like the HAT (History Aptitude Test), and interview preparation, giving your child in Shrewsbury the same level of support as students anywhere in the country.
Is online tutoring as effective as in-person for a subject like History?
It is, and in many ways, it's even better. Our online classroom features interactive whiteboards for essay planning, screen sharing for analysing historical sources together, and easy file sharing. It provides all the tools for deep, collaborative discussion, plus the huge advantage of connecting your child with the ideal specialist tutor from anywhere in the UK.
What happens if my child doesn't get on with their first History tutor?
Finding the right fit is everything, and we're here to make sure that happens. We have a first lesson guarantee, so if you don't feel the tutor is a perfect match, 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 do you ensure your History tutors are high quality?
We're incredibly selective. Only 1 in 8 applicants are accepted onto our platform. Every tutor is background-checked, interviewed, and has proven subject expertise. Many are qualified teachers, examiners, or hold degrees from top universities, so you can be sure your child is learning from a true professional.
My child attends Meole Brace School. Can tutoring align with their school curriculum?
Of course. Our tutors will work with you and your child to understand their specific curriculum, whether it's GCSE or A-Level. They can help reinforce classroom learning, plug any gaps in their knowledge, and stretch them beyond the syllabus to build deeper understanding and confidence.
How much does online History tutoring for a student in Shrewsbury cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, typically starting from around £15 per hour. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and the level of study. You can easily filter by price on our website to find an expert tutor who fits your family's budget.
How flexible are the lesson times?
Extremely flexible. That's one of the main benefits of online tutoring. You can schedule sessions for evenings, weekends, or whenever suits your family's schedule. There's no travel time to worry about, making it much easier to fit quality tuition around school, clubs, and family life.
Do you offer tutoring in subjects other than History?
Yes, we cover over 300 subjects! From core subjects like Maths, English, and the Sciences to languages, music, and even coding. Whatever your child needs support with, we can connect you with an expert online tutor to help them.
What technology do we need for online lessons?
It's very simple. All you need is a laptop or computer with a webcam and microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our online classroom is custom-built and runs directly in your web browser, so there's no complicated software to install.
How soon can we expect to see an improvement in our child's confidence?
Every child is different, but many parents tell us they notice a change after just a few sessions. That feeling of having a dedicated expert on their side, who can explain things in a way that finally 'clicks', often has an immediate positive impact on their confidence and attitude towards the subject.
How much does online History tutoring for a student in Shrewsbury cost?
Many tutors love doing this! Using local examples like Shrewsbury Castle or the story of Charles Darwin can make history feel more tangible and exciting. A great tutor can use these local touchpoints as a springboard to explore the broader themes and periods they're studying for their exams.
