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.

*Please message me to request a booking as my timetable is changeable and across different platforms so is not always updated on here* Hello, I'm Marie from Oxford, UK. I'm a professional teacher, private tutor, University Lecturer and Continuous Professional Development (CPD) Trainer. My specialist subjects include Business, Marketing, English Language, Media Studies and Sociology, including coursework and exam support, and proofreading / editing assignments. I'm also a qualified English teacher, and have recently been tutoring students to prepare them for their 11+, 13+, GCSEs, A-Levels and IELTS exams, as well as delivering a complete primary homeschooling programme. In my career so far, I've been lucky enough to work with some fantastic education institutions including Universities and Colleges in Oxford, India and China. I've delivered professional development training to teachers and professional staff from many different countries, and my work has seen me travel to many places such as Russia, Spain, Switzerland, Malta and Kurdistan. I've also worked as a travelling Governess, accompanying families as they move locations, ensuring continuity and dependable tuition with excellent success rates. I am passionate about helping my students and clients achieve their goals through education, and I'm equally as happy delivering bespoke training sessions to large groups of staff, teaching a University course, or getting a call from an individual student telling me they've achieved the grade they needed that we worked on in their private study sessions. Before I retrained as a teacher, I worked as a Marketing Manager and Project Manager for a University in Oxford, and these skills and responsibilities have helped to shape my adaptable teaching style and capabilities. I would love to hear from you and find out about your training and education needs, and let's achieve your goals, together.

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) Maxim has helped several students achieve places at top tier schools like Westminster, Highgate, South Hampstead, University College School, Wetherby, and Latimer. 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.

Hello, my name is Malachi 😊 I am a recent first-class Geography graduate from King’s College London, currently working in planning and construction. At University i was able to excel in Geography, achieving a first in every final year module. I was also able to earn the universities formal commendation through the receiving the 'Best Graduating Student' Award in my final year. I also received an A at A-Level in the subject, alongside an A* in my NEA Coursework Studying urban, cultural, and environmental geographies, my interests fall in largely in urbanism. Whether its help with GCSE, A-Level, or Undergraduate geography I am happy to help. Geography is such a diverse and multifaceted subject. Its not just colouring in maps…For me I love drawing on how the subject relates to biology, history, economics, art, politics and so much more. I think my greatest strength is really utilising the subject to help people top think holistically about how we can use geography is so many real world examples and case studies. I would love to share my knowledge in the subject. I can also offer assistance with personal statements and university advice, having received all of my offers from UCL, KCL, and the Universities of Manchester, Leeds, and Newcastle.

Hi, my name is Beth! I'm 23 years old and have completed a degree in Biomedical Science at the University of Birmingham, graduating with a first class honours degree and am now in my third year of MBChB Graduate Medicine! I am really passionate about science and it was my decision to pursue this at university after studying both Biology and Chemistry at A Level. I also studied French and History A Level, both of which I thoroughly enjoyed! I am very passionate about my education and believe that teaching others is an essential skill for everybody to develop throughout their academic career. Now that I have completed my undergraduate degree and complete the first two years of Graduate Medicine, I am looking forwards to pursuing my dream of becoming a doctor. I have some tutoring experience with GCSE Chemistry, Physics and French whilst at sixth form. I have also given revision lecture to audiences of up to 100 people at university to support the revision of other years on the Biomedical Science programme. I would really like to continue tutoring and share the knowledge that I have gained. I love to teach others and support in their learning and look forward to future sessions. With regards to my teaching style, I am very organised, keen on good time management and preparation prior to sessions. I like to get to know the student's learning style and tailor my lessons to suit their current ability and what they would like to achieve. I believe in stating with an overview of the topic, before going into the detail, having a more general discussion before going into the key points to remember. I try to suggest ways of remembering tricky concepts and then spend the final portion of the session going over exam questions and looking closely at the mark scheme to ensure the student is hitting all the necessary points. A little bit more about me - I have various hobbies from playing the flute, ballet and having multiple leadership roles at university. I also work with a charity called Global Brigades which works to empower partner communities around the world, particularly through healthcare support. In August 2022 I will be travelling with a group of fellow students to Honduras to support the set up of Medical clinics within a community! I look forward to hearing from you! Beth

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 have over three years and 1500+ hours of in-person and virtual teaching experience, and have mentored hundreds of students in that time. I am proficient in multiple subjects across their AP, GCSE, A-level, IB and international equivalents. 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:)

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.

So you're stressed and agonising over that essay you can't write, or that text you can't get your head around? And you have an exam on the way! Maybe you've taken the exam already and didn't quite get the results you wanted. It can be daunting to say the least. But that's where I can help you. While still at school, I tutored some of the younger students and saw real progress and their grades, skills and self-esteem. It's a process I've been developing ever since. After graduating as an actor from Royal Birmingham Conservatoire with a 1st, I spent 5 years working extensively in all levels of the education system, from School Students all the way up to Consultant Doctors. The one thing all of the people I mentor or tutor say again and again is "I never saw it like that" and that's crucial to what I offer. My focus has always been on taking seemingly abstract, complex and confusing material and making it accessible using my unusual slant on things. And I can use this to help you overcome the obstacles in your way. I teach seminars regularly with the Shakespeare Birthplace Trust using a text to explore essay technique, thematic ideas and language. I regularly coach students and professionals to develop communication, problem solving and leadership. All while building their confidence with a given skill. My approach is tailored to the individual, and is therefore flexible to suit their needs. But central to it are the following criteria: - Building core competencies relative to the subject: Essay writing, objective analytics, attention to details and how to expand on them. - Identifying obstacles specific to the student. Using coaching techniques, tasks and conversation to help them overcome it. - Exploring alternative view points and helping to develop a wider understanding of the material in context. - Building confidence and competency in bringing knowledge and skills to the subject in question. - Basic exam technique, focus and stress-relief to help think analytically under pressure. - Public speaking, presentation skills and ownership of the text if required for a public speaking role. Outside of the tutoring world my hobbies ( as you might have guessed) include theatre. But I've also developed a bizarre love of gardening, and no I've moved to a big city, I'm really looking forward to the challenge of growing vegetables on my window sill!

I have worked at several learning centres, and taught online- both 1:1 and group settings. My most recent achievement is helping a Physics GCSE student increase their grade from a 6 to a 9. I myself hold 6 A*'s and 8 A's at GCSE (I achieved the highest GCSE grades in my year), and also 3 A grades in Biology, Chemistry and Maths at A-Level, A* in Extended Project and A in AS-Level History. I am very dedicated and committed. I will create tailor-made lesson plans for each student and also set regular homework for them to complete between sessions, which I will then mark and provide feedback. I also have extensive experience of the exam boards studied at GCSE and A-Level. Please do feel free to message me with any queries or questions and I am more than happy to help! Alternatively, I am happy to provide a free trial meeting.

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.

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.

What is the best way to write a History essay?

Writing a history essay is hard; not only do you have to focus on getting your language right: spelling, grammar and tone, but you have to deal with complex issues and other people’s opinions as well as your own. The key thing to remember is to back all of your points up with evidence because otherwise, it might look like you are making things up! Your history tutor in St Albans can help you develop excellent creative writing and analytical skills to ensure you’re ready for your big test or final paper.

What does a History tuition lesson look like?

The best thing about hiring a private tutor is that you can decide exactly how the lesson will be spent. A popular thing to do is to show a past essay you have done to your history tutor in St Albans. They can go through it and make suggestions and corrections, but remember that you can also go through a topic you haven’t written about, which is a great idea if you have an exam coming up.

Want extra help in History? Book a lesson with the best history tutors in St Albans today!

Are you looking for a History tutor in St Albans? Tutor House has a team of highly experienced and qualified History tutors who have the skills and knowledge to help you improve your grades. History is one of the most interesting subjects to learn in school. It's little wonder why so many TV shows, films, games, and books are based in the past. But despite this, studying History can sometimes be a challenge. Reading, thinking and writing about it isn’t easy and requires many skills that take time to learn and develop.

 

Tutor House’s History tutors can provide personalised and private lessons to explain in detail the period of History you are studying, or they can look through your essays with you providing feedback, which is vital to improving your grades. So whether you are studying The Cold War, Medieval England or Ancient Greece, you can be sure that hiring a top history tutor with us is the right decision.

 

It shouldn’t be surprising that both online and in-person tuition has exploded in popularity in recent years. In a one-to-one environment, the tutor can provide you with much more specialised attention than you might receive in school, where your teacher has to manage large classes. Perhaps they don’t have time to answer your questions, or they have to rush through marking your work; these are issues that you will never face when you work with a Tutor House tutor. So, what are you waiting for?

 

Finding a tutor is easy; search the Tutor House website and enter your requirements. You will find many great options for tutors, but if you are struggling to choose, you can always call the Tutor House team, and they will be happy to recommend the best history tutor in St Albans to suit your needs.
