History tutors

15 UK tutors who teach History.

History at GCSE and A-level is content-heavy and source-heavy in roughly equal measure: students learn periods (medicine through time, Tudors, Cold War, Nazi Germany, Civil Rights and many others, depending on board) and the analytical skills to handle sources, interpretations and extended essay writing. Tutoring most often unsticks the writing: how to structure a 16- or 25-mark essay, how to use sources without narrating them, how to evaluate historians' interpretations at A-level. Boards (AQA, Edexcel, OCR, Eduqas) prescribe different topics. Match the tutor to the specific paper, not just to History as a subject.
