history at an 11-18 comprehensive, consistently

closely involved in political reporting and has a wealth of
anecdotes with which to illustrate key political concepts
and enhance student understanding. Paul also uses his
writing skills to help students shape their coursework
and craft their final drafts.

TRAINING
Tutor • Trainer • Educator
“Although our son has only had two
lessons with Paul so far he has
found them very helpful. Paul has
gone through essays and explained
how to improve the marks and is
very patient. He certainly knows the
subject inside out! We hope that
Paul will continue to tutor our son
throughout his A-level course.”
- Jenny
“I went from not being able to name
the 5 monarchs I was studying for
my A Level History to getting an A in
the summer. Paul is very
knowledgeable about each exam
board, best ways to revise,
information you need to know and
will mark any essays you give him
with lots of feedback. 5/5”

it extremely useful in his A Level
History studies. The focus has been

required help with. Paul is always
very friendly, professional and
happy to share his teaching
experiences and I wouldn`t hesitate
in recommending him to others.”
