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...

Christopher B
Experienced History tutor
I have been involved in education since 2002 when my own PE teachers told myself and a few friends if we wanted an after school basketball class we had to get the coaching qualifications and run it ourselves. Hardly looked back since! In 2009 I qualified with my BA in History and in 2011 achieved my teaching qualification and recognised professional status in 2013. In 2018 I also completed a Masters degree in History, committed as I am to becoming not just a general historian but a specialist in my main topic areas. During this time, working in Guildford, Teesside and Liverpool I have developed...

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child hopes to study History at the University of York. Can a tutor help?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are experienced in helping students with university applications. They can help your child deepen their subject knowledge, practise articulating complex ideas, and develop the strong analytical and essay-writing skills that competitive departments at universities like York look for.
How can online tutoring support my child at a high-achieving school like Fulford or The Mount?
We understand the pressure at academically rigorous schools. A one-to-one tutor can provide a supportive space to consolidate learning, explore topics in greater depth than is possible in class, and focus specifically on honing the essay and source analysis skills needed to achieve the highest grades.
Is online tutoring as effective as meeting a tutor in person?
Yes, and for many families, it's even better. Online tutoring offers incredible flexibility and access to a wider pool of specialist tutors from across the UK. With interactive tools like whiteboards and resource sharing, lessons are just as engaging, but without the travel time and geographical limitations.
What happens if my child doesn't click with their first History tutor?
Finding the right fit is the most important thing. We have a first-lesson guarantee: if you don't get on with your first tutor for any reason, 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 very selective. We accept just 1 in 8 tutors who apply to our platform. Every tutor is interviewed, background-checked, and has proven expertise in their subject, so you can be confident your child is learning from a true professional.
Can a tutor use York's local heritage to make lessons more interesting?
Definitely. A great tutor will use your child's environment to bring the subject to life. They can connect curriculum topics to York's rich Roman, Viking, or Medieval history, making learning more relevant and exciting.
How much do online History lessons cost for a student in York?
Our tutors set their own rates, typically starting from around £20 per hour. You can filter tutors by price on our website to find an expert who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or long-term contracts.
What GCSE or A-Level exam boards do your tutors cover?
Our tutors have experience with all major UK exam boards, including AQA, Edexcel, OCR, and WJEC. You can check a tutor's profile to see their specific experience or message them to ask before you book a lesson.
How flexible is the scheduling?
Very. That's one of the biggest benefits of online tutoring. You can arrange sessions for evenings, weekends, or whenever suits your family's busy schedule. You're not tied to a fixed slot and can find a tutor who works around your commitments.
What equipment does my child need for an online session?
It's simple. All your child needs is a laptop or computer with a webcam and microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our platform has a built-in video classroom with an interactive whiteboard, making online learning seamless and effective.
Do you offer tutoring for subjects other than History?
Yes, we do! We have expert tutors across more than 300 subjects, from core academic subjects like maths and science to languages, music, and even coding. We're here to support your child's learning in any area they're passionate about.
How much do online History lessons cost for a student in York?
Every child learns at their own pace, but our focus is on building confidence from the very first session. Many parents tell us they notice a change in their child's attitude and self-belief quickly, which then translates into improved results over time. In fact, 90% of our students improve by at least one grade.
