Ancient History Tutors : 1-1 Ancient History Preparation

I am a dedicated and experienced tutor with a passion for empowering children and adults with special educational needs (SEN) and neurodivergent conditions to discover the joy in learning.

I’m skilled at creating bespoke, inclusive lesson plans that cater to diverse learning styles and individual needs, and strive to create a positive, uplifting atmosphere during my sessions that promote a positive attitude towards learning.

I have a person-centred approach, and focus on the interests and needs of my students, finding what works best for them and using these avenues to facilitate learning.

Beyond tutoring, I am a professional musician, with vast experience in the create industry. I have a passion for all things history, nature, sci-fi and fantasy, and find these interests often overlap with my students and help us create strong bonds that enrich the learning experience.

​I’m a Russell Group Historian who’s been building my career as a private tutor since 2020.

I have a great many interests, including just about every era of history; literature; music; politics; philosophy; psychology; education; science; writing; technology; architecture; film-making; writing; and even astronomy and space travel!

What I enjoy most of all, however, is talking about the countless things that interest me, so tutoring is a great way to share my passion and knowledge!

What matters above all to me is helping others pass their exams to the very best of their ability, but without ever losing their own passion for the subjects they enjoy or feeling worn down by the challenges of those they like less: GCSE and A Level exams can often feel like jumping through hoops for the sake of a mark scheme, so it’s important to find the balance of demonstrating your skills through showing the examiner what they need to see while making sure the subject never becomes tedious.

I am a graduate in History 2.2 Bachelors Degree, and a pass in master’s degree which was Multimedia Journalism. Since graduating I have been working in high schools for almost three years and I am very knowledgeable in a wide range of subjects across the UK curriculum. I have observed, worked alongside with many different teachers across both primary school and high school across Greater Manchester which means I have taken a lot of knowledge in how to teach, how students learn best in different subjects, why students may excel in some subjects and struggle in others. I have a good understanding as I have mentioned in History, and in the humanities as a whole, the types of topics that come up during the course of the year, and the types of “tests” teachers use to see how well students are progressing.
