History Tutor - GCSE to Undergraduate level

Having achieved a 2:1 BA in History from the University of Exeter, I offer supportive, engaging and tailored History tutoring for students from GCSE through to undergraduate degree level.

My approach focuses on developing a genuine understanding of historical events, contexts and interpretations, rather than simply memorising facts. I aim to help students become confident, independent thinkers who can critically engage with historical material and construct clear, well-supported arguments.

For GCSE and A-level students, I focus on strengthening subject knowledge, developing essay-writing skills, analysing sources and interpretations, and improving exam technique. I tailor sessions to the student's specific syllabus and areas of difficulty, helping them build confidence and approach assessments more effectively.

For undergraduate students, I can provide support with academic essay writing, structuring complex arguments, engaging with historiography, analysing primary and secondary sources, and developing independent research skills. I particularly enjoy helping students refine their academic writing and develop a more critical approach to historical debates.

Every student learns differently, so I adapt my teaching style, resources and lesson structure to suit individual needs. We identify areas for improvement together, set achievable goals and work through challenging topics at a comfortable pace.

My aim is to make History engaging and accessible while helping students develop the skills, knowledge and confidence to achieve their academic potential.
