History IB is one of the most challenging papers, due to the breadth and depth of its topics. At Tavistock Tutors we try to make it that little bit easier.
Our expert history tutors have extensive experience, and our successful statistics speak for themselves. We believe students tend to perform better when they love their subject, so we make sure that our history tuition is a world away from the boring classroom approach.
Our bespoke tuition provides tutors best suited to studentsā personality, requirements and unique learning style. Whether itās building understanding of historiography or analysing source material, their insider knowledge canāt be found in any revision guide or textbook.

āI work together with the student and their parents in identifying the areas in which they require help. Such close collaboration enables me to me structure the tutorial, link it to the syllabus and make it effective in terms of exam preparation. But, most importantly, it helps me make the learning process as fun as possible! During...
We all differ in intelligence, but intelligence can be changed through sustained hard work. And great tutors motivate their students to work hard by way of their expert subject knowledge, careful preparation, high expectations, friendly rapport ā and good measures of common sense and human kindness. My approach to tutoring begins with a candid assessment of a studentās strengths, as well...
I am passionate about teaching, because I think that passing on knowledge is always incredibly fulfilling. When I teach, I know that I can help others understand concepts that I have mastered.

Given the interdisciplinary nature of my studies I feel comfortable tutoring a range of methodological fields across the humanities and social sciences, along with languages I have fluency in; Italian, French, Spanish and Arabic. I am a passionate believer in the joy of learning and the pursuit of knowledge, and I will aim to transmit independent thinking and passion for the...
I aim to make myself redundant. That may sound odd, but I believe the end goal of one-to-one tuition should be that the student is confident and independent enough to mean that the tutor is no longer necessary. And this is not because we have simply worked through an area of difficulty together, or solved a particular problem. No, tutoring...
My approach to tuition is at once focused on securing the top grades in my subject areas and crafting lessons that actively engage my students in fun and creative ways. I will tailor my lessons to the syllabus of the relevant exam board, but will also challenge my students by including source material outside the syllabus that will distinguish top...
