About Christopher
I’m an experienced Modern Studies and Politics teacher with 14 years in Scottish education and a current SQA exam marker. Teaching isn’t just my profession—it’s something I genuinely care about. I became a tutor because I’ve seen how the right support at the right time can completely change a student’s confidence, motivation, and final results.
Over the years, I’ve worked with hundreds of young people with different strengths, challenges, and learning styles. I understand that no two students are the same, and I pride myself on creating a calm, encouraging space where questions are welcome and progress feels achievable. My experience as an SQA marker means I can show students exactly what examiners reward and help them avoid the common mistakes that hold grades back.
I believe success in Modern Studies and Politics comes from more than memorising facts—it’s about learning how to argue, evaluate, and think critically about the world. My goal is to help students not only improve their grades but also develop skills and confidence they’ll carry beyond school.
Professionalism, reliability, and clear communication are at the heart of how I work. Parents and students can expect well-planned lessons, honest feedback, and a tutor who is fully invested in helping each learner reach their potential.

My approach to tutoring is built around confidence, clarity, and exam success. With 14 years of experience as a Modern Studies and Politics teacher and SQA exam marker, I know exactly what examiners are looking for and how to help students turn knowledge into high-quality answers. I focus on breaking complex political ideas into clear, manageable concepts and developing the skills needed for essays, source questions, and assignments.
I tailor every lesson to the individual student. We’ll identify strengths and gaps, then use structured explanations, model answers, and guided practice to build both understanding and technique. I place a strong emphasis on exam skills—timing, question analysis, and evaluation—so students feel prepared, not just knowledgeable.
Lessons are typically 60 minutes, though I also offer 90-minute sessions for assignment support or intensive exam preparation. Each session includes clear learning goals, active discussion, and written practice with detailed feedback.
I work with BGE, National 5 and Higher Modern Studies students, as well as those studying Higher Politics or NC Social Subjects at college level. Whether you need help keeping up with classwork, boosting grades, or mastering exam technique, I’ll provide patient, focused support designed around how you learn best.
Recommendations
Recommendations are written by the tutor's friends, family, and acquaintances.
My son really struggled with Higher Politics at school and did not enjoy the subject at all but he needed four As to get into uni so we knew we had to find the right support.
Chris was brilliant at helping with essay writing and skills-based questions, which he had really struggled with in school. Chris provided clear structures and formats that my son could follow, which gave him a framework and boosted his confidence.
My son is dyslexic and has always found essay-based work difficult, but Chris was incredibly patient and understanding. He shared practical “hacks” and techniques that made tasks feel much more manageable and less overwhelming.
What really stood out was Chris’s passion for politics. My son ended up coming off of his tutor sessions and actually talking to me about what they had covered and what he had learned.
We’re so grateful for Chris’s support. He not only helped improve my son’s skills and confidence but also transformed how he felt about Higher Politics and his own capability.
I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him.I can’t recommend Chris highly enough as a tutor. From the very first session, he put my daughter completely at ease, building her confidence and creating an environment where no question was silly and nothing was too much bother.
It is clear that Chris has an incredible depth of knowledge, and his experience as an SQA marker gave an excellent insight which made a huge difference — he knew exactly what was required to succeed and how to help my daughter improve in the areas that mattered most.
Thanks to his guidance, my daughter's grade improved from a D to a B4, which we are absolutely delighted with. His teaching is clear, focused, and genuinely effective.
We are so pleased with the progress made, and I can honestly say he is worth every penny. An outstanding tutor who truly cares about his students’ success.See more recommendations
