University of Manchester postgraduate specialising in Political and Social History classes

From 57.65 C$ /h

As a recent History postgraduate, attaining a 2:1 degree at the University of Manchester I will pass on sizeable knowledge to prospective Historians. Largely focusing on Political and Social, with elements of Economic history, my teaching will generally mirror my specialties. I specialise in post 1960s Britain, particularly the 1980s, which was the topic for my 13,000 word dissertation. Similarly, I achieved first class and no lower than 2:1 grades in subjects spanning from the beginnings of the Islamic world in late antiquity, to the study of Ancient Greece through archaeological remains, to the industrial revolution and the formation of class in Britain, to the British colonialisation of India and Africa, to the Jim Crow south in the US, to the transnational community post ww2, to the theoretical nature of the memorialisation of WW2s events in eastern Europe.
Though certain subjects I have delved even deeper into, my vast knowledge of a wide scope of historical eras and subjects, as well as my experience in History at russel group University level (2:1), A Level (A) and GCSE level (A) stages, allows me to tutor Historians of all ages and levels.

About Me

I believe myself to be a friendly, approachable person, who will make an entirely charasmatic tutor. Working with young people regularly in my football coaching role has given me a passion for positively influencing young people's ability and ultimately lives, whilst honing my skill to demand respect from those I'm trying to imprint my knowledge upon.
I will be a flexible tutor, as I know the stresses of education and the balancing act you parents need to navigate, therefore my leniancy in timings and availability will remain aplenty.
Though I specialised in modern History at degree level, I am also willing to bend to the neccessities of the syllabus and believe I'll be able to provide support to a plethora of historical subjects, so do not be afraid to ask!
