Anna H
Excellent History tutor
I believe that a strong and rigorous History education can be instrumental in changing a child’s life for the positive. Having taught in a variety of schools across Yorkshire, I have seen the importance of students being engaged and personally supported in them achieving their potential. I am an extremely flexible tutor who will put you at the centre of the lesson and focus on your individual goals to get the best out of you. I achieved my PGCE with the University of York and have most recently taught a wide range of students at Malton School and Queen Ethelburga's Collegiate. I have had solid e...

Zaynab A
Supportive History tutor
With a strong academic background and hands-on experience, I am well-equipped to be an effective tutor. My solid understanding of core subjects, demonstrated by outstanding A-Level results in Biology, History, and Chemistry, and exceptional GCSE scores, particularly in Mathematics, English, and Science, positions me as a knowledgeable guide for students. My previous role at Explore Learning as both an online and in-person tutor has honed my ability to adapt teaching styles to meet individual student needs, including those with learning disabilities. Furthermore, my experience in a fast-paced medical...

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...

My son has been having History sessions with Richard for over 6 months. Richard is friendly and patient. He has a good subject knowledge and asks the right questions to test my son's understanding of his teaching. My son has enjoyed learning about Ancient History with Richard.

Alexandra M
Alexandra is an amazing tutor and honestly I cannot stress enough how helpful she has been in teaching me. She is super kind and is always willing to help with any topic and she goes out of her way to prepare resources, like history extracts/sources/essay questions for lessons. She also is willing to answer questions outside of lessons and it is clear that she has passion for teaching her subject to her students. Lessons with Alexandra are effective as she teaches both content and exam techniques and essay skills, preparing students for A-level exams. She has also been supportive throughout the A-level exam period, offering extra support if needed. Alexandra has been an amazing tutor and I have always looked forward to having lessons with her.

Lorraine N
My son's review:"She is very kind and she teaches History very well. I really enjoyed her lessons!" My review: Lorraine gave amazing lessons to my son. She is well prepared and engaging. She makes sure my son understands the lessons. He checks his knowledge and taught him a lot about essay writing which will be very beneficial for his exams. She is very reliable and well organized and focused on what the student needs.

Hetty O
I have had Hetty as a History Tutor for a couple of months now and she has really helped build my confidence in writing and formulating arguments. I was very worried about my grade in History because I was not where I needed to be in order to get into University, but now I am successfully and consistently getting that grade when doing past paper questions. I could not have asked for a better tutor, and her patience and consideracy has meant a lot to me!

Jasmine E
jasmine has been so helpful and very accommodating to everything i have needed to help me on my journey for A-level history. she creates a very comfortable atmosphere in the sessions so that i am able to interrupt and ask any questions or for her to clarify anything that i did not understand. i would absolutely recommend jasmine as a tutor for history tutoring as you can tell that she has a strong passion for the subject and helping others to understand and succeed. she did over 5 hours of lessons with me one week before my exams on top of her uni work so she is a very dedicated teacher
