Phil R
Bringing History to Life
I have a strong, passionate and extensive interest in History. I believe that rather than it be a stodgy subject full of dates and events, it’s actually a living thing as it’s about people, how they thought what they thought and why they thought it and how all that impacts us today. My specialist interest lies in 19th and 20th Century History particularly the First World War - I visit the battlefields of France and Belgium at least twice a year. It's something I think anyone should undertake at least just once to try and appreciate the magnitude of what took place there - it's a moving experience. I a...

Kathy F
Creative History tutor
I am a Royal Holloway, University London graduate with a BA and MA, specialising in arts and humanities. I am very keen to help pupils to learn and fully understand what they might not get in a classroom environment. Whilst at school and even at university, I had one-on-one help and I would not have got the grades if it was not for this extra help. That is why I want to help those who may need the extra help to get the grades they want.I did my A levels at a school as opposed to a college and this gave me the experience to work with the lower parts of the school (junior and senior). I would help...

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.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
We're worried our child might be at a disadvantage. How can online tutoring help them compete?
We completely understand. Online tutoring levels the playing field by removing geography from the equation. Your child in South Shields gets access to the same elite History tutors as students anywhere in the country – specialists who have helped countless students secure places at Russell Group universities. It ensures they get the expert guidance they deserve.
My child attends Mortimer Community College. Can a tutor complement their schoolwork?
Absolutely. Our tutors work to enhance what's being taught in school. They can reinforce classroom learning, help plug any gaps in understanding, and stretch your child's knowledge further, building on the great work their teachers are already doing. It's about giving them that extra, personalised support to help them thrive.
Can a tutor use local North East history to make the subject more engaging?
Many of our tutors are brilliant at making history relevant. If your child is studying Roman Britain, a tutor could certainly use South Shields' own Arbeia Fort as a fantastic case study. Connecting the curriculum to local heritage is a powerful way to bring the past to life.
Is online tutoring as effective as in-person?
Yes, and in many ways, it's better. Online sessions offer huge advantages: your child can learn from the comfort of home, you have access to a much wider choice of top UK tutors, and lessons can be scheduled flexibly around your life. With interactive tools and focused one-to-one attention, it's just as effective, but far more convenient.
What happens if we don't click with the first History tutor?
Finding the right personality match is key, 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.
How do you ensure your History tutors are high quality?
We're incredibly selective. Only 1 in 8 tutors who apply are accepted onto our platform. Every tutor is background-checked, interviewed, and has proven subject expertise, so you can be sure your child is learning from a true professional.
My child struggles with essay writing specifically. Can a tutor focus on that?
Of course. That's the beauty of one-to-one tutoring. If essay structure, source analysis, or crafting a strong argument is the main challenge, the tutor can dedicate entire sessions to building those specific skills until your child feels completely confident.
What levels of History do you cover for students in South Shields?
We cover all levels, from Primary School and Common Entrance right through to GCSE, A-Level, and even university-level studies. Whatever stage your child is at, we can connect them with a specialist tutor online.
How much does online History tutoring cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, typically starting from around £25 per hour. You can browse tutors' profiles to see their prices, experience, and reviews, allowing you to find an expert who fits your budget and your child's needs perfectly.
My child also needs help with English. Can we find a tutor for that too?
Yes, definitely. We have expert tutors across more than 300 subjects, from core academics like English, Maths and Science to languages, music, and even coding. You can find all the support your child needs in one place.
What technology do we need for online lessons?
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 is easy to use and has all the tools needed for an interactive lesson, like a shared whiteboard.
My child struggles with essay writing specifically. Can a tutor focus on that?
Every child is different, but many parents tell us they see a shift after just a few sessions. That moment when a topic finally 'clicks', or when they complete a difficult piece of homework on their own, can make a huge difference to how they feel about the subject and themselves.
Have a great first lesson.
Guaranteed.
If things aren’t right with your first lesson just let us know. We’ll pay for
your next lesson with a new tutor – and even help you find them.
