Feedback on our Politics tutors
"I am a very proud mum! My daughter was successful in receiving an offer from Oxford at her chosen college to read History and Politics. What an amazing achievement. So happy for her. Thanks to you and all the team for your support, it was very worthwhile and very much appreciated."
Mother of Oxford History and Politics applicant"I just wanted to write to say an enormous thank you for all your hard work with my son on his Politics and History revision. I know he found the sessions hugely beneficial and from my perspective, you were a steady rock throughout the process. We could not have asked for more in a tutor — your commitment and attention to detail were second to none."

Politics Tuition Levels
We can provide Politics tuition tailored to specific exams, from IB Global Politics, to A Level Politics, and the Oxford Thinking Skills Assessment (TSA). We help to improve exam performance by making use of past Politics papers, reinforcing core learning, developing revision techniques, and helping students to push the boundaries of their knowledge of Politics to differentiate themselves from fellow students.
International Baccalaureate (IB) Global Politics tutors
IB Global Politics is a challenging qualification, covering a range of compulsory and optional components from Human Rights, to Development, to Peace and Conflict. Our Politics tutors will help your child to gain a deeper understanding of the subject, develop their critical thinking skills, solve problems, and communicate their knowledge successfully in an exam context.
A Level Politics tutors
A Level Politics students have to master a wide range of complex topics to succeed. Our Politics tutors are able to focus in on those areas where your child needs additional support, help them demonstrate their knowledge effectively under time pressure, and ultimately prepare them to perform strongly in these key exams.
Oxford, Cambridge and UCL Thinking Skills Assessment (TSA) tutors
Variants of the TSA are used in the application process for Oxford, Cambridge and UCL universities, and as such is a rigorous and competitive examination. Our TSA tutors can help your child maximise their performance in this assessment, building on their knowledge and helping them to demonstrate the depth of their understanding successfully, as they compete for places to read Philosophy, Politics, and Economics (PPE) (amongst other degrees) at Oxford University, Land Economy to the University of Cambridge or Social and Political Studies related degrees at UCL.
