About
History Tuition
KS1-GCSE
From Mediæval realms, to World War II and Ancient Egypt to 9/11, our historians are here to offer their passion and zest for history to young (and older) minds across London. Using videos, pictures, real historical documents and, most of all, intriguing stories, they bring history to life in a way that cannot fail to intrigue the mind. They work in full complement with the exam board required (for GCSE and A-Level pupils) and show you how to take investigation, question-answering, memory, chronology and essay writing to the next level and rectify those common pitfalls.
History tuition: a great way to revitalise the subject and get yourself on track for those imperative exams.
