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 top grade in GCSE Politics to get into Fulford School's sixth form. Can a tutor help with this specific goal?
Absolutely. This is a common goal for families we work with in York. Our tutors are experienced in helping students bridge the gap between a good grade and a top one. They can focus on the specific exam techniques and depth of understanding required by highly competitive sixth forms like Fulford or Archbishop Holgate's.
Can an online tutor really understand the competitive school environment in York?
Yes, many of our tutors have experience supporting students applying to top schools and Russell Group universities across the country, including York. They understand the high standards required. The benefit of online tutoring is that your child in York can connect with a specialist who has the perfect experience, regardless of where they are in the UK.
Is online tutoring as effective as meeting a tutor in person?
We find it's even more effective for many families. Online lessons use interactive whiteboards, screen sharing, and document editing, making them incredibly engaging. Plus, your child can learn from the comfort of home in York, giving you access to a much wider choice of top-tier tutors from all over the UK, not just those who live nearby.
What happens if my child doesn't click with their first Politics tutor?
Finding the right fit is crucial, and we want you to be completely happy. If the first session with a tutor isn't quite right, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk. We will cover the cost of your first lesson with a different tutor, ensuring you find the perfect match.
My child is interested in Politics, but what other subjects do you offer tutoring for?
We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects! From core academic subjects like Maths, English, and Science to languages, humanities, and even practical skills like coding, music production, or public speaking. We believe in supporting every aspect of your child's learning.
How do you vet your Politics tutors?
We're incredibly selective. Only 1 in 8 applicants make it onto our platform. Every tutor is background-checked, interviewed by our team, and has proven subject expertise and teaching ability. We ensure your child is learning from a true professional.
How much does online Politics tutoring for a student in York cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates based on their experience, typically ranging from £25 to £50 per hour. You can see each tutor's price on their profile, so you can find an expert who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.
How flexible are the lesson schedules?
Completely flexible. You arrange lesson times directly with your tutor. Whether it's after school, on weekends, or during the holidays, you can find a schedule that works around your family's commitments. It's one of the biggest benefits of online tutoring.
What technology do we need for online lessons?
It's very simple. All you need is a laptop or computer, a stable internet connection, and a webcam with a microphone. Our platform has a built-in video classroom with an interactive whiteboard, making lessons seamless and easy to join.
My child lacks confidence in writing essays. How can a tutor help?
This is a key area where our tutors excel. They can break down essay writing into manageable steps, from planning a structure and forming a thesis to finding evidence and writing with clarity. They provide constructive feedback in a way that builds confidence, rather than knocking it.
How quickly can we find and start with a Politics tutor?
You can get started very quickly. Simply use our search filters to find Politics tutors, read their profiles and reviews, and message them directly. Many parents find and book their ideal tutor within 24 hours.
How much does online Politics tutoring for a student in York cost?
Both! Whilst tutors will prioritise the school curriculum and exam preparation, they love to foster a genuine passion for the subject. If your child is interested in a specific topic, like international relations or environmental policy, the tutor can certainly incorporate that into lessons to make learning even more engaging.
