1-1 tutoring

1 -1 and group lessons are conducted via Teams. For 1 - 1 lessons I find the best format is to review what you have learnt at school over the previous week to 10 days and then to focus in on areas that you feel you want more understanding of. Normally from discussions with pupils I can identify very quickly any gaps in knowledge or misunderstandings and they are typically addressed at the same time. I recommend every 4th of 5th lesson we review your most recent homework to identify any misunderstandings or bolster any gaps in knowledge. Depending on how advanced the student is or how close they are to their y13 exams, the final part of the lesson will often look at questions from previous A-level history papers to tutor the student in both the technique of answering them and also discussing with them the content required to get the top grades.

Group tutorials

Conducted via Teams. Shortly I will be introducing group lessons. They will follow the similar format as a 1 to 1 lesson, but will have up to 6 students participating. If you would like to get your name on the list for the tutorials, just give me your email and I will send you details of the tutorial groups I am running and you can join whichever one you want. Group tutorials are very useful because they are a little more cost effective and a great way to bounce ideas off other students and share best practice.

Free stuff

I create free content that exactly matches the curriculum you are studying. Typically that is a review of each video tutorial I create (on my YouTube channel and also the videos section here), along with graphics highlight timelines and mind maps to help you zero in on the key arguments for each different topic. You are very welcome to download/copy/circulate the material as much as you like to friends and teachers.
