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 considering the University of Portsmouth for Politics. Can a tutor help them prepare for that level of study?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are experienced in guiding students towards university-level thinking. They can work with your child on developing the critical analysis, essay writing, and independent research skills that are essential for success in a politics degree programme, giving them a brilliant head start.
With Portsmouth's naval history, we want our child to understand its modern political relevance. Can a tutor help with that?
Yes, this is a perfect example of how our tutors can tailor sessions. They can help your child in Portsmouth connect local heritage to broader themes in UK foreign policy, defence strategy, and international relations, making their learning far more relevant and engaging.
Is online tutoring as effective as in-person for a subject like Politics?
We find it's even more effective for many. Online sessions use interactive tools like whiteboards to map out complex ideas, and the focused, one-to-one environment is perfect for in-depth debate and discussion. Plus, your child in Portsmouth gets to learn with a top UK tutor, not just whoever is nearby.
What happens if my child doesn't click with their first Politics tutor?
It's so important that they feel comfortable and understood. That's why we have our first lesson guarantee. If it’s not the right fit for any reason, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
How do you vet your Politics tutors?
We're incredibly selective because we know how much trust you're placing in us. Only 1 in 8 applicants make it onto Tutorful. Every tutor is background-checked, interviewed by our team, and has proven expertise in their subject to ensure they can provide the highest quality of teaching.
How much do online Politics tutors for students in Portsmouth cost?
Our tutors set their own rates, typically starting from around £15-£25 per hour. You can easily filter by price on our platform to find an expert tutor who fits your budget, with no hidden fees or contracts.
My child finds political news overwhelming. Can a tutor help them make sense of it?
Definitely. A key skill tutors help build is media literacy. They can teach your child how to analyse news sources, identify bias, and form their own informed opinions, turning what feels overwhelming into something they can understand and engage with confidently.
What do we need for an online tutoring session?
It's simple! All your child needs is a laptop or computer with a webcam and microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our online classroom is built right into your browser, so there's no complicated software to download.
Can we get help with A-Level Politics exam technique?
Yes, absolutely. Our tutors are brilliant at focusing on exam-specific skills. They can work through past papers, help structure high-scoring essays, and teach your child how to apply their knowledge effectively under pressure to improve their grades.
How flexible is the scheduling?
Completely. You can view each tutor's availability and book sessions at times that work for your family, whether that's evenings, weekends, or during school holidays. It's designed to fit around your life, not the other way around.
Do you offer tutoring in other subjects besides Politics?
We do! We have expert tutors across more than 300 subjects, from core GCSEs like maths and English to languages, musical instruments, and even coding. Whatever your child is passionate about, we can help them explore it.
My child finds political news overwhelming. Can a tutor help them make sense of it?
Yes. Tutoring isn't just for catching up; it's also for stretching bright students. A tutor can introduce more advanced topics, foster deeper debate, and provide a challenging intellectual space that goes beyond the school curriculum, helping your child truly excel.
