About Pádraic
Qualified teacher with 7 years’ experience helping students achieve strong academic progress in History, Politics, and KS3 English, Maths, and Science. I specialise in GCSE and A-Level exam preparation, with a particular focus on improving exam technique, essay structure, and subject confidence.
I am a graduate of the University of St Andrews and have taught in both independent and state school settings, giving me a broad understanding of different learning environments and student needs. I have extensive experience working across all major UK exam boards (AQA, Edexcel, OCR), which allows me to tailor lessons precisely to exam requirements and mark schemes.
My teaching approach is structured, supportive, and results-focused. In essay-based subjects such as History and Politics, I help students develop clear arguments, strong analysis, and high-level writing skills. For KS3 English, Maths, and Science, I focus on strengthening core foundations, building confidence, and ensuring long-term understanding rather than short-term memorisation.
I work with a wide range of students, from those who need help catching up and building confidence, to high-achievers aiming for top grades and exam excellence. Every lesson is adapted to the individual, with a focus on clear progress and measurable improvement.
I offer online tutoring (via Zoom), providing flexible and accessible support for students across the UK. I am highly responsive to messages and aim to support students quickly and consistently.
Whether you are preparing for GCSEs, A-Levels, or simply want to strengthen understanding and confidence in a subject, I provide clear, structured, and effective tuition tailored to your goals.

I can offer help at four different key stages: KS3, KS4, KS5 and Undergraduate level.
KS3 - help with second order concepts (e.g. causation/significance) and analysis in History through an exciting combination of reading and writing.
KS4 - targeted tutoring towards exam success, from as early as Year 9 all the way through to Year 11. I help students gain the skills required to answer all exam question types thoroughly, as well as helpful revision skills.
KS5 - targeted tutoring towards exam success. I offer a comprehensive service which targets the complex issues in the History & Politics curricula as well as detailed marking and feedback on essay writing.
Undergrad - comprehensive essay reading and feedback service on most topics.

I know Padraic through the school my friend's children attend. He helped both of my sons through A-level Politics, helping them both achieve above their target grades with exam-focused sessions and a keen focus on areas of strengths/weaknesses. His attention to detail was magnificent. Highly recommend.
I asked Padraic for guidance as I was struggling with my A-level Politics and History. He was super detailed and structured in his tutoring, and as a qualified teacher his excellent feedback on written assignments gave me the skills and knowledge to obtain an A*/A in my final exams. Thank you so much!
