I am currently a business lecture at UCB , however, I have experience of teaching primary, secondary, 11 plus and assignment support at HE level. Teaching has always been a passion and I am extremely dedicated to my job role. I enjoy all types of teaching and have taught all ages and in all types of environments. Alongside teaching English, maths, and science, etc, I also like to focus on the child’s holistic development which I believe is pivotal. I also do private tutoring online on one to one basis and group sessions.
I like to teach my children through joyful interaction which assists them in reaching their full potential and achieving above and beyond their level of expectations. I have seen dramatic improvements from children who started off with very little or no English-speaking skills at all in becoming the highest achievers, furthermore, receiving recognition and awards in their educational institutions. I am very soft-hearted towards the children I teach, nevertheless, this does not mean that they can get away with not completing their studies.
I am extremely flexible and can easily adapt quickly to new situations. You will find me highly empathic towards the children and very understanding, regardless of their age. All people big or small should be treated with the utmost respect. I do my best to dedicate my spare time to supporting charity events, group talks, and teaching children.

I am a highly experienced tutor with over 7 years experience teaching and tutoring in private and public schools, as well as privately and online, in the UK, France and Spain. I am familiar with all major exam boards, and have been frequently noted for the passion and rigor with which I introduce and teach my subjects.
I am a firm believer in the idea that education should be available to all, and that there is is student without potential. I thus make a point to help the student see the attraction of the subject.
My methodology is focused on ensuring immersion in both the more theoretical and abstract principles of the subect and their application through practice and concrete examples. I aim to get the student applying themselves consistently as soon as possible, keeping a constant eye out for areas for improvement.
I studied at the University of Warwick, Sciences Po, and the Sorbonne.
I have worked as a teacher, tutor, translator, researcher, as well as business research and charity.
I am fluent in 6 languages: English, French, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese and German.
I am also a teacher of Latin and Greek.

Hi!
I graduated from the University of Warwick with a BSc. in 2024, and from the International Baccalaureate in July of 2021, with 43/45 points and Higher Levels in Mathematics, Physics and Economics. My Standard Level subjects were Psychology, English and French.
I've been teaching in both virtual and classroom environments for approximately three years now, and have grown considerably over that time. Whenever I mentor someone, I try and take a hands-on approach, pacing the material appropriately and answering questions in the process. I'm proficient in a range of digital teaching tools, and am more than willing to adapt to new ones. I'm also extremely attentive to my learners, and try and tailor my teaching methodologies to their individual requirements.
Outside of teaching, I love reading, writing and playing the guitar:)

Hi! I'm David, a student at the University of Edinburgh. I love reading, cooking, swimming, and playing the piano. I have two years of experience in tutoring, as I spearheaded a volunteering program during my last two years of high school to tutor kids in a wide array of subjects. Therefore, I am trained to tutor in most high school subjects, although I am best at tutoring science subjects (biology, chemistry, and mathematics.) I am always open to new ideas and different methods of teaching in order to provide the best experience for my tutees. I look forward to helping as much as possible, so contact me in order to set up a free trial session, so that we can establish learning goals and design a strategy to achieve them.

Teaching Experience
Maxim has tutored since graduating from Oxford in 2019. He has delivered over 1000 hours of tutoring, a testament to his commitment and dedication. In 2022, one of Maxim's students scored an A* in A-Level Politics, despite the Covid-19 pandemic. His students regularly gain top grades in A-levels and coursework. In 2021, both long-term Politics students got their desired grades and went to their dream universities.
Maxim has experience across the Humanities, including various A-Level Politics syllabi and exam boards.
The Oxbridge tutorial system (going through essays forensically and discussing them in depth) is central to Maxim's tutoring. These were, in his own words, "the best years of my life, with a learning experience I'm keen to share."
Testimonials
“The amount of history and your ability to create a timeline in order to help me learn the syllabus, although (it) may seem like common sense, makes the course much easier to understand thanks to you.”
Andreas (A-Level Politics student)
“Maxim tutored our son regularly throughout his A level Politics course. He was awarded an A* in his exam. Maxim has extensive background knowledge about the subject, exam technique and offers patience and persistence. Our son said he misses the sessions now the exams are over, which is a real endorsement. I would thoroughly recommend Maxim.”
Jane (parent of former Politics student)
Bio
Maxim is a Masters student in London, studying Broadcast Journalism. Before that, he spent two years working exclusively as a freelance History and Politics tutor.
He spent three years at Trinity College, Oxford reading History and Politics. At Oxford, Maxim focused on British and international politics, achieving high marks in International Relations and US Politics. While a student, Maxim also appeared on University Challenge and was twice an elected member of the Oxford Union's governing body.
Maxim got three A grades at A-Level, notching up 100% in UK Politics with additional success in US Politics. Maxim received offers from LSE and Warwick along with Oxford.

Having achieved QTS status in May 2009 at the University of Worcester, I have spent the past 13 years doing something I love: teaching history. During my career I have taught history to students from KS3 all the way through to A Level - attaining results in the top 10% of the country on multiple occasions. I still love my job today as much as I did when I first started - I love reading new books and listening to podcasts that continually evolve our understanding of the past. I am also a qualified Edexcel Examiner who specialises in Weimar and Nazi Germany.
My particular specialisms at A- level are the Tudors, 19th century American History, Weimar and Nazi Germany and Revolutionary France but I’ve taught a wide variety of specs and exam boards over the years.
My passion for History runs deep. I was recently lucky enough to co-author a new Medicine through Time GCSE textbook through OUP and, in 2018, I participated in the BBC Back in Time for School series - a truly life changing experience.
Away from History, I’m a keen football, cricket and golf fan. I’m also a dad to two young boys.
I’m very excited about the opportunity to provide History tuition in my spare time. I hope that my enthusiasm, drive and approachability will help others achieve as much enjoyability and success from the discipline of History as I have.

I'm a History tutor with 5+ years of experience. I am an Oxford graduate, who read Ancient and Modern History at BA level. This niche course took an incredibly broad view of history, allowing me to study such disparate subjects as Alexander the Great and his early successors (333-302BC), and modern non-state actors in Mexico (2006-2014). As such, I have experience in engaging not only with history (as it is traditionally conceived) at a high academic level, but with classics and international politics as well. I received a high 2:1 in my finals, despite the difficulties caused by sitting the exams during the coronavirus pandemic, and attained a strong 1st (72) in my thesis, which might be considered a more representative statement on my attainment, as it was submitted prior to the crisis reaching tipping-point in the UK.
At A-Level I had an unusually scientific background, taking History (A), Biology (A*) and Maths (A), whilst achieving an A in AS Physics. Outside of more formal studies, I also read an extensive amount of 20th century classic literature and philosophy, and am teaching myself Spanish.
On top of this, I competed in Blues Gymnastics while at Oxford, have a black belt in karate, and travel as much as possible (with an especial focus on the middle east). As I hope all this indicates, I have a broad range of interests which inform a holistic approach to education and suggest a genuinely inquisitive and engaging nature. I look forward to encouraging my love of learning in others, as well helping them to understand the material they are studying.

How can I get top marks in History?
To get top marks in your History GCSE, you need to be able to write a strong essay with a clear argument. It's important to be knowledgable about all the content in the GCSE syllabus and be able to recall key facts and figures in the exam.
Is History a good GCSE?
History is a tough GCSE, with lots of facts, content and sources to learn about. It's a really good GCSE to have, as it develops your critical thinking skills and prepares you for the in-depth studying required at A Level and Degree Level. History GCSE encourages students to be curious and discuss topics with each other.
What does a GCSE History tutor do?
A GCSE History tutor will teach you how to answer GCSE History questions to a high standard and how to meet the exam specification to hit those top marks. You'll learn how to plan History essays, analyse History sources and write a strong and coherent essay for coursework or exams.
Are you searching for a History GCSE Tutor?
History GCSE is certainly a challenging subject. It demands that you recall how certain historical events unfolded over vast time periods as well as analyse source materials and create compelling arguments in preparation for your final GCSE exams. From here on things become a little more in-depth and complex. Topics tend to dip in and out of the close evaluation of decisions made in a couple of hours to the impact they had years down the line. Achieving the highest possible grade is not only beneficial in the short term.
For long term goals of further education, GCSE History is a foundation block upon which you build your further education from History A-Level to university and beyond. Even if you are not thinking about taking your History beyond GCSE level it is important to remember the negative impact lower grades can have when applying for traineeships, apprenticeships, and even internships.
As work experience places become more and more competitive don’t let lower grades get in the way of your future career goals. It is now more important than ever to invest in your or your child's education so that you are best prepared for the future whatever may be in store.
With a History tutor from Tutor House, you can rest assured that you are in the best hands before the GCSE History exam. For best results we recommend finding and booking your tutor ahead of time, leaving at least 3 months before your History exam. In this amount of time, we have seen our past students achieve well above their current grade level and achieve results up to 3 grades higher with Tutor House tutoring!
