One-on-One Support for Core Options & Depth Studies

The subject emphasizes key historical concepts such as cause and consequence, change and continuity, and similarity and difference. Students also develop an understanding of international issues and critical historical skills, including investigation, analysis, evaluation, and communication.

Our tutors at Growing Stars break these topics and skills down clearly, step by step, using the student’s own course material. By focusing on historical evidence and clear communication, we help students develop a sound basis for further study and a lifelong interest in history.

What You Will Learn

Tutoring sessions are tailored to the exact syllabus option, Depth Study, topics, and level of content the student is currently covering. The sessions explore relevant historical content—such as the nineteenth-century development of modern nation-states and twentieth-century international relations—alongside the student’s selected Depth Study. Students will master the investigation and use of historical evidence, ensuring they remain perfectly aligned with their classroom pace and curriculum.
