About Me

With over 30 years of experience teaching History, including extensive expertise in IBDP, IGCSE, and Theory of Knowledge (TOK), I am passionate about helping students achieve their academic potential. As an IBDP examiner for History IA and Paper 1, I bring in-depth knowledge of assessment standards and expectations to my tutoring sessions. My approach is student-centred, focusing on interactive learning and tailored strategies to meet individual needs. I emphasise critical thinking, analytical skills, and clear, structured feedback to build confidence and foster success. Whether you're preparing for exams, refining essay skills, or deepening your understanding of history, my goal is to make learning engaging, rewarding, and impactful.
