EXPERIENCED HISTORY TUTOR AVAILABLE FOR GCSE AND A-LEVEL (ALL BOARDS) - SOME SLOTS STILL AVAILABLE


Recommended Posts

I'm a History teacher with over 25 years experience of teaching in London schools, including serving as:
6th Form Head; Head of History; manager of Outreach/1:1 Learning services; 1:1 Tutor specialising in supporting students with SEN and school based anxiety; Private History Tuition (GCSE, A-Level and IB). I am available to tutor at all levels and currently have slots available throughout the academic year.

Working with you and your child I would design a programme of learning based around targeting specific areas of need. This approach enables us to focus on the young person's needs and interests, and avoids the risk of replicating learning or reinventing the wheel.

I'm happy to have a chat about your specific needs, please contact me via PM for details. I look forward to hearing from you.

Online lessons preferred.
Full DBS.

Here's what former clients say about the service I provide:

‘Alex is a fantastic tutor, I highly recommend him. Our daughter has done History GCSE in one year with so much help from him. She's found him engaging and focused on how to help her succeed. I couldn't have found someone better to help her.’

‘I got an A in history! I was so shocked, considering the past 2 years I never made it past an E in my mocks. I'm so grateful for all your help. Thank you so, so much.’

"I recommend Alex very highly. He is a fantastic teacher. He started working with my son at Easter just before GCSEs when it looked like he was going to struggle to get the grade he needed to study history for A level. Alex helped give him the focus to turn everything around and to our delight our son walked away with an 8 for that GCSE and then an A at A-level. Couldn’t be happier!"

‘Thank you for all your hard work and support for both girls. They have really enjoyed it and it has been invaluable. I'd be delighted to recommend you to anyone in need of a History tutor.’

‘I just wanted to give you a warm thank you for your support in our tutor sessions. Without them I don’t think I’d be in this position. You were very supportive and gave me that extra confidence. I am so overjoyed with my grade as I’d of never thought I could pass history. I really struggled with it throughout year 12 and 13.’

“Alex tutored my daughter in the final stages of her history GCSE prep. Having not managed to get through all the syllabus content at school she was super stressed, lacking confidence and desperately in need of some exam and question practice and guidance. In only 6 or 7 sessions Alex turned things around for her and she went into the exams feeling confident, capable and properly equipped. She really enjoyed her sessions with Alex who mostly left it to her to decide how she wanted them structured and what she wanted to focus on, while also making sure she had everything covered off. He set her work to do between sessions and gave her feedback which she found invaluable. He was a wonderfully calming influence in those crucial last weeks and a pleasure to have around. He was also very flexible and easy to communicate with. I would recommend Alex without hesitation (and not only because in the final exam she came out with an A*).”

“Alex worked with my daughter, as she was struggling in A-Level History. Not only did he bring it to life for her but he bought in more background and insight and cemented her knowledge well. Her confidence grew and her grades and love of history increased and she got the grades she needed. Every session resulted in a wonderful batch of notes that could be used later too. I have no issues with recommending Alex for A level extra tutoring.”

“Alex has been of great help with my daughter’s A level history revision. Before each lesson they would decide which topic they would revise next time. Alex has a wealth of knowledge which allowed them to go into great depth. He also has a good way with teenagers bringing out the best in even the most reluctant ones. He is very positive and I would have no problem recommending him to anyone wanting to improve their child’s chances of achieving a higher grade at their history examination.”

“Alex helped our son with his A Level History course work. He has very good curriculum knowledge and was able to help with, and complement, the work our son had done at school. We would highly recommend him.” 

"Could not be happier, really big thank you Alex. Those sessions really helped, I can't thank you enough."

"A big thank you from me and my daughter. She said the tutoring in concepts, themes and links really helped as she used to be too fixated on facts only before."

"Thanks so much for our sessions, I've definitely felt more confident"

"I can't thank you enough for your support in the months prior to my exams and I don't know where I would currently be without your mind. I can confidently say I lucked out with my tutor. Thank you so much!"

    • Morally they should, but we don't actually vote for parties in our electoral system. We vote for a parliamentary (or council) representative. That candidates group together under party unbrellas is irrelevant. We have a 'representative' democracy, not a party political one (if that makes sense). That's where I am on things at the moment. Reform are knocking on the door of the BNP, and using wedge issues to bait emotional rage. The Greens are knocking on the door of the hard left, sweeping up the Corbynista idealists. But it's worth saying that both are only ascending because of the failures of the two main parties and the successive governments they have led. Large parts of the country have been left in economic decline for decades, while city fat cats became uber wealthy. Young people have been screwed over by student loans. Housing is 40 years of commoditisation, removing affordabilty beyond the reach of too many. Decently paid, secure jobs, seem to be a thing of the past. Which of the main parties can people turn to, to fix any of these things, when the main parties are the reason for the mess that has been allowed to evolve? Reform certainly aren't the answer to those things. The Greens may aspire to do something meaningful about some of them, but where will they find the money to pay for it? None of it's easy.
    • Yes, but the context is important and the reason.
    • That messes up Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland - democracy being based on citizenship not literacy. There's intentionally no one language that campaign materials have to be in. 
    • TBH if people don't see what is sectarian in the materials linked to above when they read about them, then I don't think me going on about it will help. They speak for themselves.  I don't know how the Greens can justify promising to be a strong voice for one particular religion. Will that pledge hold when it comes to campaigning in East Dulwich (which is majority atheist)? https://censusdata.uk/e02000836-east-dulwich/ts030-religion
