The tutor says of himself:

With eighteen years of teaching experience, including time leading vibrant and successful History Departments, I have the skills and enthusiasm to tutor students to success. My teaching ethos places establishing a strong conceptual understanding of the past as the foundation for success. Once that conceptual understanding has been established students have the confidence to undertake rigorous knowledge building, engendering a real curiosity about the past and an enthusiasm to succeed.
I pay particular attention to encouraging greater depth of reading, research and curiosity in my students. I ensure every session contains a significant amount of stretch and challenge; as well as the opportunity to read, listen or watch carefully selected resources after the session.
I am happy to support students in any area of History. My particular areas of Examination expertise at GCSE are: Modern World History, 20th Century British History, Early Modern Britain and the USA in the 20th Century. At A Level I have particular expertise in the NEA and Early Modern Britain 1450 – 1600. I support young people to achieve their best, whatever that best may be.

Here is some of the recent feedback Tom has received:

Dear Simon, Many thanks for your email and for seeking feedback. Generally, I found the whole process of using Norfolk Tutors very easy and straightforward, so thank you for your help. Tom Greenwood has also been an excellent tutor for Adam (History A level). Tom has been extremely supportive and patient, and it has been lovely to see Adam grow in his understanding and confidence with this subject, and we would be very happy to use Norfolk Tutors again in the future! Best wishes. Melissa

Mrs S from Norwich
