13 Plus Exam Tips
Read our top tips on how to help your child prepare for their 13+ Common Entrance Exam so that they can secure a place at one of the UK’s leading schools.
Private Tutors for History
We introduce History tutors for the 13+ Common Entrance, GCSE, A Level, IB and beyond.
Every History tutor we introduce strives to take the subject out of the past and bring it to life using their passion and expert knowledge of the subject, so that they can foster a genuine love of History in your child. As well as providing private tuition at home or online, the private tutors we introduce can organise visits to museums and sites of historical interest, giving your child an exciting and interactive connection with History. Your child will also benefit from the tutor’s knowledge of exam boards, which will help them to construct original and persuasive arguments to set them apart from other exam candidates.
To find the right History tutor for your child, please call one of our tuition consultants to discuss their learning style and requirements or use our online enquiry form further down this page.
