About Me

As a former Head of Year and Head of Sixth Form I understand how stressful GCSE and A levels are, therefore, it is crucial to understand each students’ individual needs and ensure that every lesson is individually tailored specifically to them. I can quickly identify gaps in subject knowledge and focus my lessons on this as well as consolidating exam technique.

Client Reviews

Louisa has been tutoring my Year 11 twin girls for over a year in GCSE history and has been a wonderful tutor. She is very organised, reliable, methodical, experienced and with a wealth of resources and techniques to guide and help them with the detail and structure of their essays, in order to elevate their results and enjoyment of the subject. She is also very personable and the girls genuinely enjoy the sessions and have thrived in this subject. One of them is even selecting history for A level and will carry on with Louisa as a tutor for that. I would have no hesitation in recommending Louisa as a history tutor.

amazing - so engaging! amazing class

Louisa is an excellent A-Level History tutor. My son has had several sessions with her and he found them incredibly informative. She's really helped him to understand structure and exam technique, and it has been evident in his grades which have gone from a C to a solid A, in a very short space of time. I would highly recommend!

We are sooo lucky to have landed Louisa as our tutor! So great.

Ms Louisa is a great teacher who always personalized her methods of teaching to suit my way of learning, always provided more than enough resources to revise and gave her lessons in a fun, engaging way that seemed more like storytelling than learning history. I enjoyed studying history with Ms Louisa and would definitely recommend her to any students looking for a great tutor.

Very helpful and informative and good support particularly with essay questions

Testimonials

“Louisa is a fantastic history tutor and greatly supported my son during his GCSE exams this summer. She provided lots of supporting materials for self study after lessons and also helped direct my son around how to structure his answers. She always reviewed and marked any work submitted after lessons giving an indication of marks and guidance on how to improve. I would definitely use Louisa again if my son decided to carry on with History at A Levels and would recommend her to other students looking for GCSE history support. “

I've thoroughly enjoyed my lessons with Louisa over the past year, and I am actually sad to see them end! Louisa was always organised and enthusiastic about the topics I was covering, and adapted to my learning style almost immediately, which I found very helpful in getting me through an A Level in a year | couldn't recommend Louisa more to anyone looking for a history tutor!


Louisa has been invaluable in building my daughter's confidence in Alevel history after a challenging time in Lower 6. My daughter was finding it so hard to get good marks. Louisa's warmth, patience, kindness and positivity was so helpful in gently building her confidence. The guidance and expertise from Louisa through the NEA coursework was amazing. She would not have been able to know where to start and wanted to stick her head in the sand. A weekly session with Louisa gently encouraged her to get it done and she has secured a superb 80% mark.
