About Ben
Hi there! I'm a London resident and recent Cambridge History Graduate. I really believe that History is one of the most interesting and important subjects in the curriculum, and am entirely committed to making sure my students get the most possible out of them.
A levels and GCSEs rest on both understanding exam technique and having a grasp of the content. Thankfully, these subjects work best when the two go hand-in-hand. I have a wide variety of techniques for learning content- starting with effective note taking- but the most important skill is to contextualise these in an exam-friendly format from the start. The key to accessing the highest grades at both A level and GCSE is to understand how to make sustainable arguments using that knowledge base. As such, from the start my focus is to look at questions from the exam board, and also give the scope for students to think more about the big questions within topics- the latter is a huge help in preparing students to take the step from A-Level to Undergraduate study.
I have been a tutoring A Level History for over two years, and have helped students access higher grades on a number of exam boards. I'm friendly and patient with students, and having family in the school system I understand why some students simply don't end up engaging with the content in that setting. I hope I can allow students to not only thrive, but also enjoy their subjects to their fullest.

I taught Ben History and Government and Politics for A Level two years ago. He was a model student fully deserving of his exceptional grades in both subjects. He is polite, conscientious and a passionate historian. He reliably met all deadlines, and would be an exceptionally mature mentor to younger students. He has a track record of mentoring and conveying information in a clear manner to others, both in lessons and outside the classroom where he was a highly thought of prefect.

Ben and I have been sharing tutoring tips since 2017. As history and politics fanatics, we've always sought the most accessible methods to transfer knowledge on these important subjects to those around us. Having taught several group classes at Sixth Form together, we had the distinct challenge of teaching to our peers. However, our love of the subject and desire to help our classmates made sure that our lessons were always successful and popular. I'm glad to hear that Ben will be using his expert knowledge as a Cambridge student to be helping others and I can't wait to hear how he helps more people in the near future
