Students develop knowledge and understanding of significant historical developments and learn to examine historical issues from different perspectives. Our tutors at Growing Stars adapt sessions to the specific content and specification the student is studying, using the student’s own course material.
Our expert tutors focus on historical knowledge, source analysis, interpretation, explanation, evaluation, and historical argument, helping students build the skills they need for their GCSE assessments.
GCSE History specifications cover a range of historical periods, events, developments, themes, sources, and interpretations, with the precise content determined by the student’s exam-board specification. Rather than teaching from a single fixed list of historical topics, our tutors work directly from the student’s own specification, selected topics, and course materials, so each session matches the content and skills the student is studying.
