Christopher B
Experienced Politics 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...

Brilliant Politics tutors who you’ll really click with.
Our experienced tutors take the time to understand where each student needs to focus and their preferred way of learning. They make a measurable difference – 90% of all students improve by at least one grade.
My child is aiming for a competitive sixth form in Leicester. Can a tutor help with the specific GCSE grades needed for Politics A-Level?
Absolutely. This is one of the main reasons parents in Leicester come to us. Our tutors can focus specifically on the curriculum and exam techniques required to boost your child's GCSE grades, helping them meet the entry requirements for their desired A-Level courses and sixth form.
How can an online tutor help my child relate their Politics studies to Leicester's own history?
That's a great way to bring the subject to life! Whilst our tutors are UK-wide, many are skilled at helping students connect concepts to their local environment. They can guide your child in researching and analysing Leicester's history of social reform or its role in modern British politics, turning abstract ideas into tangible local examples for essays and discussions.
Is online tutoring really as effective as having someone visit our home in Leicester?
We believe it’s even more effective. Online tutoring gives your child in Leicester access to a much wider pool of specialist Politics tutors from across the UK, not just whoever is local. With interactive tools, session recordings, and the comfort of learning from home, it's a flexible and powerful way to learn.
What if my child doesn't click with their first Politics tutor?
It's really important that your child has a great relationship with their tutor. If the first session isn't a perfect fit, please 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 check your tutors are qualified and safe?
We take safety and quality very seriously. Every tutor is background-checked and must provide valid ID. We also interview every applicant to assess their expertise and teaching style. We're proud to be very selective, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply to our platform.
My child is quite shy. How do tutors help them build confidence in online sessions?
The one-to-one online environment can actually be brilliant for shyer children. It's a safe space to ask questions without the pressure of a classroom. Our tutors are experienced in building rapport and creating a supportive atmosphere where students feel comfortable sharing their ideas and asking for help.
Beyond Politics, can my child get help with other subjects?
Yes, of course. Many students need support across different areas. We have expert tutors in over 300 subjects, from core academic subjects like Maths and English to practical skills like coding, music, and languages. You can find the right support for all of your child's needs.
How much do online Politics tutors for students in Leicester cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, which typically start from around £15 per hour. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and the level of study (e.g., GCSE vs. A-Level). You can see each tutor's price clearly on their profile to find someone who fits your budget.
What technology do we need for online lessons?
It's very simple. All you need is a laptop or computer with a webcam and microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our online classroom is built into our website, so there's no complex software to download. It's designed to be as easy as a video call.
How will I know if my child is making progress?
Communication is key. Your tutor will provide regular feedback on your child's progress. You can also message them at any time through the platform. Seeing your child's confidence grow and their grades improve is, of course, the best indicator of all.
Can we find a tutor who specialises in a specific area of Politics?
Yes. That's a huge benefit of our UK-wide network. You can use our search filters to find tutors who specialise in specific topics, such as US Politics, Political Theory, or Global Politics, ensuring your child gets the expert help they need.
Beyond Politics, can my child get help with other subjects?
Most families opt for one hour-long session per week, as this provides consistency without being overwhelming. However, it's completely flexible. You can arrange more frequent sessions during exam periods or less frequent ones as needed, all in discussion with your tutor.
