Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

How can an A-Level History tutor help with the huge reading load and complex essays?

An A-Level History tutor can teach your child effective strategies for active reading, helping them identify key arguments and summarise dense academic texts more efficiently. For essays, they'll guide them through structuring complex arguments, evaluating evidence, and integrating different historical interpretations, helping them write clear, analytical pieces that stand out.

How can a tutor support my child with the A-Level History NEA (coursework)?

The NEA can feel overwhelming, but a tutor can provide crucial support. They can help your child choose a strong research question, guide them in finding and evaluating primary sources, and provide a clear framework for structuring their 4,000-word dissertation. This tailored guidance helps students manage the project alongside their other studies, reducing stress and boosting the quality of their work.

My child is struggling with historiography. Can a tutor help?

Absolutely. Historiography – understanding how different historians interpret the past – is a big leap from GCSE. An A-Level History tutor can break down complex historical debates, explain the nuances of various interpretations, and show your child how to effectively integrate these into their essays and exam answers, making this challenging concept much clearer.

What kind of results can we expect from an A-Level History tutor?

Our students see great results! 90% of students improve by at least one grade with tutoring. An A-Level History tutor provides personalised support that addresses specific areas of difficulty, builds confidence, and equips your child with the skills to achieve their full potential in this challenging subject.

How do I know the A-Level History tutors are good?

We're very selective. Every A-Level History tutor on our platform goes through a careful vetting process, including background checks and interviews. We only accept around 1 in 8 tutors who apply, ensuring you're connected with knowledgeable and supportive educators who are experts in their fields and passionate about helping students succeed.

How does A-Level History prepare students for university?

A-Level History is highly valued by universities, particularly for competitive courses like Law, Economics, and International Relations. It develops critical thinking, research skills, the ability to construct persuasive arguments, and a deep understanding of complex issues – all crucial for success in higher education and beyond. A tutor can also help students articulate these skills in their UCAS personal statement.
