Information about Killian

Current Head of Politics & History teacher. Also teaching some Classical Civilisation.

In the most recent exam round, all of my students achieved A or A*.

I stood as a candidate in the May 2024 Local Elections. This was eye opening to contrast theoretical Politics as a teacher for so many years with the actual reality of campaigning. Definitely something I will bring into my lessons in the future.

Specialist in Edexcel/ AQA Government & Politics.

I currently teach all 8 UK Politics chapters as well as 4 Ideologies chapters and US Comparative Politics. I also cover the Global Politics section for year 2.

Teaching in the UK education system since 2006.

The focus of my approach is on exam practise and using past papers to understand assessment methods.

Chapters taught:
1. Democracy and participation
2. Political parties
3. Electoral systems
4. Voting behaviour and the media.

1. Liberalism
2. Conservatism
3. Socialism

1. The constitution
2. Parliament
3. Prime Minister and executive
4. Relationships between the branches.
5. Feminism/ Anarchism/ Nationalism


1. The US Constitution and federalism
2. US Congress
3. US presidency
4. US Supreme Court and US civil rights
5. US democracy and participation
6. Comparative theories.

Availability: Weekday evenings and some weekends.
At the moment all lessons are conducted online - using a mixture of Tutor Hunt`s own system and Zoom.

Willing to travel: 20 miles

Experience: Full time Politics teacher at the moment.
Taught Politics since 2006.
Currently teaching and tutoring both UK and US Politics/ Global Politics as well as the new Political Ideologies.

My daughter had only one lesson with him so we cannot give a full comment on the review.

Killian has been really helpful as my son prepares for politics a-level. He has helped enormously with essay planning and extracurricular knowledge. And equally importantly my son looks forward to and enjoys the sessions. Highly recommend :)
