Information about Nick
No. 1 thing you want from a great tutor? Knowledge. I have written 6 GCSE history text books for the GCSE elite series of books and 2 A-level textbooks. I have also written a GCSE revision guide and an A-level exam technique guide due for publication in September 2024.
I studied Economics and Politics at the University of Bath as an undergraduate, and recently gained a distinction in my Masters degree in Modern History from Canterbury Christchurch University.
My main areas of academic expertise are in the following modules for GCSE. The first three I have authored textbooks for:
●;;;;;;;;; Germany: 1871 - 1955 (including the very popular Weimar to Hitler module)
●;;;;;;;;; Medicine through time
●;;;;;;;;; Crime and punishment through time
●;;;;;;;;; International relations in the 20th century and the Cold War
●;;;;;;;;; WW1 and WW2
●;;;;;;;;; Civil rights in America 1945 - 1974
For A-level :
●;;;;;;;;; Modern Britain: 1900 - present
●;;;;;;;;; The British Empire
●;;;;;;;;; Russia: 1855 - 1964 (textbook ready)
●;;;;;;;;; Germany: 1871 - 1955
●;;;;;;;;; France: 1774 - 1815 (textbook nearly written)
I may be able to tutor you on other modules, depending on what they are and may be able to tutor 1st/2nd year undergraduates, again depending on the modules being studied.
Availability: I have considerable flexibility and can teach in the morning, afternoon or evening 5-6 days a week.
Willing to travel: Home Only
Experience: I love history and politics and after 25 years in the corporate sector I moved into teaching. I taught history and economics recently in a private school in Hampshire, teaching at both GCSE and A-level before focusing on authoring school text books (6 for GCSE and 3 for A-level) and online tutoring.
I have taught modules covering Germany, Medicine, Civil Rights in American, WW2, WW1 and general British History from early Anglo-Saxons through to the English Civil war.
Academically I have also written on Russia, Ireland, Fascism, Empire, Germany, international relations and the cold war and revolutionary France.

Thanks Gautam. That`s very kind. Khushi is a strong candidate with an excellent base of knowledge and intellectual ability, so I have no doubt she will do extremely well. It was a pleasure to work with her.

You are an exceptional teacher, thank you enormously for all your help over the last many weeks. You are a brilliant tutor, with your help Adam is feeling a lot more confident with GCSE History. He has progressed so well due to your lessons and the improvement in his grade speaks for itself. We are very grateful for the individual support provided. Best wishes!
Tutors Response :
Thank you Nazia. Adam is a good student and given he is only year 10, already has a strong foundation of knowledge and reasoning so I`m very confident he will do very well next year. He`s conscientious and thoughtful and a pleasure to work with.
