University graduate in History and Politics offering tuition up to degree-level in Edinburgh | £20p/h
Methodology
I base my classes around each student's needs and so the structure can vary depending on what exactly they hope to gain from it. For example, I can offer targeted assistance and feedback when working towards a particularly assignment, or similarly, I can provide longer term coaching if building towards an exam.
Experience
Hi there! My name is Anna, I'm an enthusiastic and highly adaptable tutor in History, Politics and Modern Studies. I recently graduated from the University of Edinburgh with a first class honours degree in History and Politics. I also spent a year on exchange at the Institut d'études Politiques de Paris (Sciences Po) ranked #4 globally for political studies where I received a 1st for the year.
In terms of direct teaching experience I have worked with both high school and university-level students. I spent the past year working as a teaching assistant in a local high school preparing students for their Nat 5 exams in History. I was also an active member of the University of Edinburgh's peer support scheme, wherein honours level students provide academic advice to pre-honours students on diverse issues such as referencing, locating sources, essay structure etc.
I feel that my key strengths as a tutor are: the passion I have towards my subjects and my ability to adapt and tailor my teaching style to the needs of the individual student.

Over the course of the year I found Anna to be completely reliable, diligent and organised.
Anna is skilled at communicating with both teachers and pupils, in understanding academic needs and how they might be best met.
I would not hesitate in recommending Anna as a tutor.
Anna is an exceptional tutor, with her enthusiasm and knowledge of the subject. She supported my daughter Sally for 6 months leading up to her preliminary exams for Nat 5 History and Modern studies. My daughter was very pleased with Anna and her own progress. I would highly recommend Anna as a tutor!
Anna gave me some wonderful history classes. She is very well educated and friendly. She prepares in advance all her classes, so their quality is always very good. I would definitely recommend Anna as a history teacher.
