Modern History Tutors : 1-1 Modern History Preparation

Hi! I’m Theo, a recent 2025 graduate from Trinity College, Cambridge, reading MML and AMES (Arabic and French). I’m a native French speaker, and I’ll be continuing at Cambridge next year with an MPhil in Modern and Medieval Languages, focusing on Francophone and Arabic thought.

Before university, I was a Major Academic Scholar at Merchant Taylors’ School, where I achieved D1 (A*) in French and Spanish, D2 (A*) in History, and an A* in my Extended Project Qualification. Since then, I’ve studied across the Francophone and Arab worlds, including terms at HEC Paris, the Sorbonne, and the University of Tunis, exploring politics, literature and law through both French and Arabic.

At Cambridge, I have consistently achieved high First-class marks in language and literature papers, including the top university-wide result in the final-year French oral examination. Outside of academics, I was a Choral Scholar at Trinity and helped lead the Trinity College Politics Society, where I hosted high-profile speakers such as Matt Hancock and Baroness Morgan—developing strong communication skills and a passion for mentoring students in public-speaking and interview contexts.

I’ve tutored students in French, Spanish, History and Politics since 2022 and have helped prepare Oxbridge candidates for MML and AMES—7 of my 8 tutees have received conditional offers. I specialise in breaking down complex literary and historical material, building student confidence, and helping ambitious pupils meet their academic goals.

I look forward to helping you succeed!

I am an Oxford postgraduate in History holding BA and MSt degrees from that university and over 10 years of tutoring experience. With a long proven track record of success, I have taught students in English, History, Geography, Classics, Politics, and all other Humanities subjects, as well as essay-writing, exam-taking, critical thinking, interview skills, and literacy at school, college, and university levels.

I tailor every lesson to each student’s unique needs, working to improve not only subject knowledge, but also study skills, enthusiasm, and confidence. Whether you are preparing for GCSEs, A-Levels, admissions interviews, or final exams, I will help you hone your abilities and ensure that you perform at your very best. I also have years of experience teaching SEND (special educational needs and disabilities) and EFL (English as a foreign language) pupils from all over the world. No matter your background, ability levels, or learning needs, I will make certain that you receive the top-quality education you deserve.

Teaching is my passion, and I look forward to helping you grow ever more skilled and confident in your studies!

Hi, I’m Sarah! I am a first-class History graduate from the University of Oxford and have just completed a master’s in European Studies at the College of Europe in Warsaw. Aside from history, I also love politics, sociology, and international relations.

With five years of tutoring experience, I support students of all ages across the humanities, combining subject knowledge with practical guidance on writing, critical thinking, and study skills. I especially enjoy helping students find their own writing style to enable them to express complex ideas with flair and precision.

I offer tailored support for Oxbridge applications and as in-reach officer for my Oxford college, I understand first-hand the barriers and doubts students can face and provide comprehensive support in navigating these.
I am also passionate about social mobility and having worked with the UK’s largest social mobility charity, I am proud to support students of all backgrounds in achieving their full potential, whatever their goals!

My teaching style is engaging and supportive and unique to the needs of each student. Importantly, beyond fostering academic excellence, I aim to equip students with lifelong skills through lively debate and discussion, helping them develop confidence and a readiness for challenge in all they do.

Hi my name is Lexi and I’m a recent History graduate from the University of Oxford achieving a 2.1. I am friendly and patient, and strive to create a comfortable learning environment where students feel encouraged to ask questions and are motivated to learn. My chatty nature helps create sessions which are engaging and interactive making learning not just effective but enjoyable. As well as this, I make sure to tailor my resources and teaching style to each student to ensure they get as much as possible out of each session.

I studied History, Geography and Maths at A-Level achieving 3 A*s. I took 11 GCSE’s (core subjects and Latin, Greek, Spanish, History and Geography) achieving 4 9s, 2 8s, 4 A*s and 1 A. From these results, I have learnt successful and effective ways to learn each subject effectively. I am eager to share the skills I have learnt myself and ensure my students reach their fullest potential.
