History Teacher Notebook

I’m a UK History teacher with experience teaching GCSE and A Level History, supporting students to develop their understanding of the past, improve their exam skills and become more confident historians.

Alongside teaching, I am a qualified coach and mentor, with experience supporting learners from secondary school through to university and beyond. Having experienced remote learning myself, I understand the challenges students can face when studying independently and the importance of developing effective learning habits.

On this channel, I share ideas, explanations, revision strategies and advice to help students make sense of History and prepare effectively for their studies. I also explore how education is changing, including the opportunities and challenges presented by new technologies such as AI.

However, I firmly believe that nothing replaces the best part of History teaching: being in a classroom, debating ideas, questioning evidence and discovering the past together.
