Build understanding, not dependence.

Patient, structured online support that finds the point where something stopped making sense and rebuilds from there.

Clear explanations without rushing the learner.

Tutoring is available alongside my historical research work. Sessions are shaped around the individual’s present difficulty and aim to leave them with a method they can use independently.

Please describe the learner’s level, topic and goal when enquiring so I can say honestly whether I am the right person to help.

HISTORY

Evidence and argument

Historical understanding, source analysis, essay planning and expressing ideas clearly.

STUDY SKILLS

Independent learning

Planning, research, revision and academic writing built around how the learner works.

The approach

Questions are useful evidence.

Not understanding something is not a failure. It tells us where the explanation needs to begin. Sessions make the reasoning explicit and provide enough supported practice for the learner to take the next step themselves.

Ask about tutoring availability.

Include the subject, level, topic and preferred frequency.
