About Katie
I am a passionate and highly successful Head of History with 13 years of teaching experience and a proven track record of helping students achieve excellent exam results. As a fully qualified and practising Head of Department, I have extensive knowledge of the GCSE curriculum and a deep understanding of what exam boards are looking for.
Alongside my teaching role, I have been a GCSE examiner for two major exam boards for the past seven years. This gives me valuable insight into current exam requirements, mark schemes, and the techniques students need to maximise their marks.
I provide tuition for both KS3 and GCSE History. As the leader of a thriving History department at a successful secondary school, I have helped secure results within the top 20% nationally in recent years. In 2026, my GCSE History cohort achieved results that were 10% above the national average for grades 4-9.
My lessons are tailored to the needs of each student and focus on developing subject knowledge, strengthening exam technique, improving essay writing, and building effective revision and recall strategies. Above all, I aim to foster confidence and a genuine enjoyment of History, helping students unlock their full potential.
Whether you are looking to boost your confidence, improve your grades, or strive for the very highest GCSE outcomes, I would be delighted to help. Please get in touch to discuss how I can support your learning journey.

My students will benefit from a relaxed yet challenging atmosphere with high expectations from student and tutor. We will have an informal and relaxed "chat" initially, to identify key needs and wishes of the tutee. This is vital in ascertaining goals as well as seeing how we get on professionally - in my experience I have found it vital that any young student needs to feel comfortable and at ease with their educator, to achieve maximum results.
After this, we can go through goals of the tutee as well as what they enjoy, don’t enjoy, different tasks, techniques and resources that they feel "work" for them. From this, I will tailor make a programme of sessions
Tailor-made support and sessions can include:
Subject tuition/support - KS3 and KS4 History and R.E.
Revision & learning support –study/process skills, revision programmes and techniques, essay-writing skills, question techniques for answering GCSE based questions.
