About History
History is not just about what happened in the past. It is about building a convincing argument for why it happened and what it meant, using sources as evidence. With a history tutor online from Centaurus Academy, your child learns from a specialist who teaches this subject and nothing else.
At GCSE and IGCSE, students study set periods in depth and learn source analysis and structured essay writing. At A Level, fewer topics are studied much more deeply, and essays must weigh up competing historical interpretations rather than simply describe events.
Exams reward precise evidence and balanced argument, so our tutors coach accurate source referencing and well-supported conclusions, backed by real past paper practice under timed conditions.
Who is History for?
History suits students who enjoy big questions about people, power and change. It is a strong fit if your child:
- Loves the stories but struggles to turn them into structured arguments
- Loses marks on source analysis and evaluation questions
- Is aiming for Law, Politics, History or other essay-based degrees
- Wants timed essay practice with clear, honest feedback
