About Me

Since moving into teaching I have authored 5 GCSE textbooks with an A-level textbook due for publication in March 2024 and 2 more being published in September 2024. The most important thing from your tutor is that they know the subject they are teaching inside out, so I can offer particular expertise in several history modules having produced books for them. My core area of experise is modern history.

I graduated from the University of Bath with a 2:1 in Economics and Politics and completed a Masters degree in Modern History at Canterbury Christchurch University gaining a distinction.

I spent several years in the corporate world before moving into teaching. I have taught in both the state and private sector and was most recently teaching history at an independent school in Hampshire.


Tutor Experience

I was recently teaching history and economics in an independent school teaching at both GCSE and A-level.

The most important thing from your tutor is their depth of subject knowledge so I can offer real expertise in a number of GCSE and A-level modules having written several school textbooks across 6 different topics.

Client Reviews

Nicholas has been a fantastic tutor to our GCSE bound 16 year old. From a failing grade in his summer mocks to getting a 7 in his autumn mock exam Nick has managed to completely turn around his trajectory and give him confidence. Nicholas focused on making sure the subject matter basics are covered and then does lots of exam technique teaching. We are relieved and our 16 year old is now motivated to do well and chuffed with his progress. Thank you Nicholas!

- History

Nick improves my learning by not immediately telling me when I've made a mistake but in asking me questions so that I eventually realise how I've gone wrong. It helps me remember things that way.
