Primary history tutors bring the past to life for young learners, covering topics from the Stone Age and Ancient Egypt to the Tudors, World War II and significant local history. A one-to-one session allows a child to explore topics in more depth, ask questions freely and develop the historical thinking skills that will serve them throughout secondary school.
London has the highest demand for private tutors in the UK, driven by competitive grammar and independent school entry processes.

Why students need help
History at primary level requires children to understand chronology, causation and significance, abstract concepts that many primary-age children need help internalising. The breadth of the KS2 curriculum (ancient civilisations through to the twentieth century) means some topics get rushed in school.
What history topics does a KS2 tutor cover?
The KS2 history curriculum covers: changes in Britain from the Stone Age to the Iron Age, the Roman Empire, Anglo-Saxons and Scots, the Viking and Anglo-Saxon struggle, a local history study, a study of ancient civilisation (Egypt, Greece, Sumer or Indus Valley), and the legacy of a significant person from history. Topics vary by school. A tutor will align with whatever your school teaches.
How much does a primary History tutor cost in London?
Rates vary by tutor and experience, so there's no single answer. On TutorLab, every primary History tutor sets their own rate and displays it on their profile before you make contact, with no hidden agency fees or commission.
