About Me
I am a passionate, self-motivated and positive personality, a committed and engaging teacher and a self-confessed history obsessive. Having completed my teacher training at the University of Cambridge, I have since been employed as Head of History at two prestigious international schools.
I have a proven record of delivering exciting and engaging lessons across the age and ability range, especially at KS4 and KS5 where I have strong IGCSE and IB experience. Beyond the classroom I am a keen musician, hiker and cyclist with a lifelong passion for music, literature and the arts that continue to inform my teaching.

Client Reviews
Alex has been beyond helpful with my current university studies, could not recommend him enough to anyone who needs some guidance and advice on how to construct an effective essay.
Robert - Politics
Great feedback on my essay!
Tob y - History
I have been working on my IA with Alex for the last several weeks and he really did make the process enjoyable. From helping me really get into my topic to completing an IA I really am happy with, Alex was so helpful. He makes the lesson a mixture of fun and productive and I would really recommend him as a tutor.

Alexander is a really available and helpful tutor. I requested for a tutor who could help me with the History IB paper 1, I have selected Alexander and he has been really useful and available. He understood my necessities and worked to help me get the highest marks. He taught me different tactics and techniques on how to approach the different types of question, he also taught me different methods on how to deal with time. He is great, I strongly advise him.
