Charles is an excellent tutor. My daughter is self-studying A level history. Charles has helped her a lot, building up her answering and essay writing skills, lots of encouragement given as well. Charles is always on time, well-planned, and well-organised. Charles is highly recommended, and a definite 5 stars tutor.
From Joanna
My son is hugely enjoying his sessions with Charles and clearly making good progress as a result. Thank you charles!
From Libby
Charles has been an outstanding History tutor. I am 21 and took an alternative approach to completing my History A-level by doing it via distanced learning. Charles was very helpful, reliable and always replied to extra questions very quickly. I am also a shift worker and Charles was flexible in finding times that fitted around my shifts. I achieved an A on results day and I couldn't be happier! Thank you.
From Adi
My son is new to the UK and he chose History as one of his subjects. However, the lessons that he is having in his new school is very different compared to his old school. He is weak at answering the long questions, also called 16 marker question. The low marks that he got made him discouraged and caused him to lose interest in History. After a long talk with my son we decided that we need a tutor, and we found Charles. After the first lesson, my son was very pleased with his new tutor Charles and he has helped my son with the techniques of answering the questions. The following lessons went very well and Charles has helped my son to memorise his lessons and his marks have improved. My son is very happy with Charles and we highly recommend others to learn with him.
From Hope
Charles has been a great tutor for my daughter especially during the last few months before her GCSC exams. He was always an email away to any history question my daughter might have. She could contact him at any time and he was always willing to support her. We will continue to use Charles' service as my daughter will be taking History at A-level come September! Thanks for all your support
From Kate
Charles has been an excellent tutor for our son for A level History. Experienced, calm and patient, Charles built our son’s confidence in History and helped him improve his essay technique as well as consolidating his knowledge of underlying curriculum content. Charles quickly developed a good rapport with our son who found the sessions enjoyable as well as helpful. Charles was quick to respond to our initial enquiry, reliable (didn’t cancel a single session) and very good value for money. Highly recommended!
From Sheilagh
My son really liked Charles and found the initial lesson very interesting. However, we had earlier put out feelers for a local history tutor to teach my son in person but the one we liked was not available. They have since contacted us to say they have had a cancellation so we have opted for the in-person tuition rather than on-line.
From Emma
Charles is an absolute gem! He started tutoring my teenage son about a month ago, and from the very start my son was so happy and truly enthused by their lessons together. My son had totally lost his passion for History, a subject he had loved for years. It was getting us all down, but I think we have found the cure! Charles has been such a fantastic find.
It is clear to both myself and my son's father that Charles has a real love for History, a sincere wish to impart his knowledge and passion to others, and, more importantly, a gift in bringing out the best in his students. Teenagers can sometimes be difficult to relate to, but Charles really has a warmth and understanding, and we are all so happy to see the change in our son's approach to what was his favourite subject.
I could not be happier, and heartily recommend Charles to anyone else seeking a History tutor.
From Anna
Charles is helping our son to prepare for his GCSE exam. So far there were three sessions and we can't praise the tutor enough. Charles is tailoring each lesson to the pupil’s individual requirements, focusing on weakness and helping to develop strategies how to overcome problems. Our son loves the sessions and think they already have helped him a lot. We will definitely continue with Charles till exam time.
From Felicia
My son has been praising Mr Charles since day one, he really likes his way of teaching and he is confident that he could get a higher mark for gcse with Charles help.
Thanks
From James

From Rebecca
Charles has been tutoring my son for a few weeks now and has always been punctual and committed to lessons. Charles is very patient and has been able to engage my son and arouse his enthusiasm for History in just a few lessons! He is always happy to answer questions outside of lessons and always provides in depth feedback.
Charles is a competent History teacher and very knowledgeable, I would definately recommend him.
From Dan
Charles is a brilliant tutor, with excellent subject knowledge and skills of working with young people. Highly recommended.
From Chris
Charles proved to be an excellent choice for us, his knowledge fit was just what me son needed, as we live some distance apart the sessions were all via Skype, which was both flexible and convenient. Given the current lock down conditions, I can't recommend Charles enough for those year 12 students, who are thinking about how the current situation will impact them next year.
From Rosemary
Great sessions. He has great understanding of the subject. He knows what he is doing. I have made good progress. Am very pleased. Thanks very much.
From Kaleb
Charles provided excellent A level History tutoring support for my 18 year old son. Charles's feedback on practice essays was always prompt, clear, constructive, thoughtful and included excellent guidance on areas for improvement. Charles's tutoring made a significant contribution to my son achieving an A*. Most importantly, Charles was always kind, considerate and helpful. Thank you Charles, Sally E
From Sami
Knowledgeable, organised, punctual and patient but also professional in his approach. A great tutor!
From Kevin
I'm delighted that we asked Charles to tutor our daughter for her second year of A Level History, which had a major bearing on achieving a Grade A, which was well beyond expectations after the first year of the course. Hannah had become very concerned about the mass of information in the History course. Her college class was excessively large and she was struggling to make the transition from GCSE. Charles' input enabled Hannah to understand more about the context of different topics through discussion, supplemented by a very practical emphasis on the importance of interpretation, exam technique and past papers. Gradually, this enabled Hannah to increase her confidence. Charles was very open to suggestions on specific needs as the course progressed. His manner was very patient and considered and he was extremely reliable. I would highly recommend Charles to other students.
From Sharon
Charles has actually got my daughter to show interest in GCSE HISTORY
From Susan
Charles has been a tremendous help, picking up the pieces when college couldn't and helping my son to a much improved predicted grade. His lessons and advice have proved invaluable. I can't recommend his teaching highly enough and wouldn't hesitate to call on him again. Thank you Charles.
From Sinead
Charles is a fabulous tutor, very professional and highly experienced teacher, and covering CEA syllabus in NI without prior experience. Doing an amazing job and we are very grateful to have found him.
From Parama
Highly knowledgeable, professional tutor, yet easy going with students, which made my daughter very comfortable during his lessons. I contacted him very last minute before the exam, but he readily agreed to help. His suggestions and advice were extremely useful.
From Judith

From Adam
I can not recommend Charles highly enough. The tutoring my son has received so far has not only boosted his confidence but given him the necessary resources, knowledge and skills to write essays more successfully. Skype tutorials are working very well. Charles is extremely organised and when marking essays e-mailed to him has them marked and returned by the next day so providing almost instant feed back. This is really helpful so close to the A Level exams, when every day counts. Charles has sent my son excellent additional resources (not provided by school) to support his studies. Money well spent! Thank you.
From Mohammed
Charles is a highly organised and immensely effective tutor. His lessons are extremely structured and he travels that extra mile to ensure the student's needs are fully met.

From Shakil
Charles is one of the best tutors I have ever had. He is very well prepared, prompt, professional and knows his subject inside out. His lessons are structured and explained in a manner that is easy for me to understand. He always goes the extra mile to help me if I have any questions or problems. In a very short period of time he has taught me so much and I have really grown in confidence. I am extremely happy with Charles and would highly recommend him to anyone studying history.
Thank you Charles. Adam
From Judith
He was very helpful and rather than just giving my daughter answers, he encouraged further research and inspired a genuine interest in the topics discussed. She received excellent marks in all the work with which he helped and she is on track to achieve her A* at A Level.
