I've taught children with SEN, EAL, behavioural problems and gifted children, across all primary stages.

Lina H
Professional and inspiring History and English tutor
Maths is usually the subject students struggle with most at school mainly due to the lack of individual help during lessons. Students often don’t ask for help when faced with a topic they find hard and so they develop gaps in their learning, which in itself become problematic later on. In my opinion the first objective of private tutoring in maths should be to systematically deal with those gaps, which are usually identified within the first couple of lessons. Once the gaps are covered, we can then proceed to cover the necessary course material based on individual requirements.I have extensive e...

Elandra G
Attentive and patient History tutor
Hi there! I’m Elandra, an undergraduate at University College London (UCL). I completed my IB Diploma in 2022. Having so recently completed my secondary school studies, I am able to relate to students on academic challenges they might encounter. I am able to work closely alongside them to develop their confidence and ability to tackle challenges. I achieve this through building a relationship with each of my students; each tutoring session is wholly cultivated to best suit their needs. I may also occasionally set small tasks outside of lesson time to encourage the development of independent learning i...

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
My child attends a competitive school in south-west-london. Can a tutor help them stand out in History?
Absolutely. Our tutors specialise in helping students move beyond just knowing the facts to developing the analytical and essay-writing skills that achieve top grades. For a student in a high-achieving environment, this one-to-one focus can be the key to building the confidence and technique needed to excel amongst their peers.
We're aiming for a top university like Oxford or Cambridge. How can History tutoring support this goal?
Many of our History tutors are graduates from top universities themselves and have experience with the application process. They can help your child develop the depth of knowledge, critical thinking, and nuanced argumentation that admissions tutors are looking for in personal statements and interviews.
Is online tutoring as effective as in-person for a subject like History?
Yes, and for History it can be even better. Our online classroom has interactive whiteboards perfect for deconstructing sources and planning essays together. Plus, online tutoring gives your child in south-west-london access to a wider pool of specialists from across the UK, not just whoever is local.
My child finds writing History essays really difficult. Can a tutor focus specifically on that?
Of course. That's the benefit of one-to-one tutoring. If essay structure is the main hurdle, the tutor can dedicate entire sessions to planning, writing, and refining arguments. They'll provide targeted feedback that helps your child build a clear, confident writing style that impresses examiners.
How do you ensure your History tutors are qualified?
We have a rigorous selection process and accept only 1 in 8 tutors who apply. Every tutor is an expert in their subject, interviewed by our team, and DBS checked. We look for brilliant communicators who know how to make their subject engaging for young people.
What happens if my child doesn't click with their first History tutor?
Finding the right personality match is crucial. We stand by our 'first lesson guarantee'. If you don't feel the tutor is the right fit after the first session, 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 much do online History lessons for a student in south-west-london cost?
Our tutors set their own rates, typically starting from £25 per hour. You can filter tutors by price on our platform to find an experienced, high-quality tutor who fits your budget, with no hidden fees or contracts.
How flexible is the scheduling for lessons?
Very flexible. You can see each tutor's availability on their profile and arrange times that fit around your family's life, whether that's after school, on weekends, or during holidays. Online tutoring makes it much easier to fit lessons around sports clubs and other commitments.
How will I know if my child is making real progress?
You'll see it in their confidence first. Tutors provide regular feedback after each session, and you can message them anytime. Many parents tell us the biggest change they see is their child feeling less anxious about homework and more willing to contribute in class.
My child is interested in more than just their school subjects. Can they learn other skills?
Yes! We have thousands of tutors covering over 300 subjects. Beyond academic support in subjects like History, your child can learn anything from coding and playing the guitar to a new language or even public speaking. It's a great way to explore new passions.
Can a tutor use London's historical resources to make topics more engaging?
Definitely. A good tutor can bring learning to life by connecting syllabus topics to real-world places. They might use online resources from the Imperial War Museum to discuss WWI or refer to the British Museum's collection when studying ancient civilisations, making history feel more immediate for your child.
How much do online History lessons for a student in south-west-london cost?
It's very simple. All you need is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our bespoke online classroom runs directly in your web browser, so there's no software to download.
