Information about Helen

I AM NOT TAKING ON ANY MORE STUDENTS.

I have been teaching A levels and GCSE for 12 years. I am currently head of history in a secondary school. I have taught history, ancient history and classical civilisations. I get excellent results at GCSE and A Level. I have tutored students through their exams both at their homes and through zoom.
Last year I tutored several students, they have moved on and are studying their chosen courses. For example, a boy who was working at a grade two when I met him but passed with a grade 6 is now enjoying his college courses. I have also worked with A level students helping them move their coursework from U grades to their predicted grades.

Availability: I am available every Sunday from 9-12am.
I can tutor during the day for students who are home educated or have free periods in their school day.
I will also be available a few evenings during the week for instant tutoring.

Willing to travel: 10 miles

Experience: I have taught in sixth form colleges and state secondary schools.
I can tutor in history, ancient history and classical civilisations.
I am head of history in a secondary school.
I have mentored students through coursework projects for 12 years.

Great Tutor!!! Took me from a C to an A*. She’s lovely and really patient so she makes sure you properly understand the content and how to apply it in an exam.

Helen has been excellent. Very quick and responsive, and my son has found her sessions incredibly helpful. She has really taken time to understand his needs and he, after one session, declared that he wasn`t going to stop the sessions until his final exam is over. High praise!

Helen has been extremely helpful to my daughter in her A level history. She is focusing on exam techniques and structure which my daughter needs.

My son had a few lessons with Helen leading up to the gcse exam, to help with exam technique. His subject knowledge was on par but he was not scoring high enough on the 16 marker questions. Helen taught him how to structure his answers and valuable exam technique . I would highly recommend Helen as she is an expert in her subject and passionate about teaching. Thank you so much Helen.

Helen has been tutoring my son on a fortnightly basis for the last couple of months and it has already proven invaluable. Helen is reliable, personable and extremely knowledgeable. My son really enjoys his sessions with her and now feels much more confident and prepared for improving his A-level Classical Civilisation exam grade this summer. Over the years, my son has had a variety of tutors help him through his GCSE`s and A-levels from Tutor Hunt and other similar agencies but Helen is by far his favourite. Just wish we had found her earlier! Thanks Helen.
