About Robert
I hold a postgraduate degree in Political Theory and International Relations from the University of St Andrews, alongside a joint bachelor’s degree in History and Philosophy from the University of Glasgow. Primarily I support students aged 18 and above though I am also happy to assist younger learners.
I have extensive experience producing high-level academic work and have frequently achieved first class marks, particularly for essays requiring strong argumentation and clarity of expression and I would be delighted to help you do the same.
Through years of seminars and group based study, I have regularly supported peers in understanding difficult material, refining their writing, and gaining confidence in their ideas. I place strong emphasis on preparation, clarity of expression, and careful explanation tailored to my student's needs. If you don't understand something it would be my pleasure to guide you through it.

My teaching style reflects a belief in the value of interdisciplinary thinking. Drawing connections between history, philosophy, and politics often helps students grasp challenging concepts more deeply and produce more insightful written work.
I am particularly well placed to help with:
• Essay structure and argument development
• Source evaluation and critical reading
• Revision strategies
• Exam technique
• Critical thinking
• Clarification of complex topics
Lessons are student led and fully tailored to individual goals. Whether you are preparing for exams, working on coursework, or seeking deeper understanding, sessions are focused, supportive, and designed to provide clear next steps for improvement.

It's impossible to understate how excellent Mr Robert Jones is as a history tutor. I am a second year university student in History and Robert's help has been a great boon to me over the past 11 months. He taught very clearly and patiently, identified areas which I was struggling with and tailored his lessons to suit my particular needs. His support, openness and expertise gave me so much confidence with my coursework and without a doubt that translated directly into me getting several A's on my essays this year. More than just passing assignments, I feel like I walked away from each session with him understanding the subject material far better than I did an hour earlier. He was very accommodating when I requested some extra sessions near exam time. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a high quality history tutor!
Robert has been an excellent professor. We met through a friend studying history at KCL, and I had taken a growing interest in the Crusades. She recommended I direct my questions to Robert, who shared my interest and had read extensively on the subject. I was particularly interested in finding someone who could tell me about this period in history with as little bias as possible — which is extremely difficult, given the available literature on the subject and how far back in history it is. Robert was excellent at conducting his classes in an engaging manner, doing his best to draw on various sources and tie each historian's work into an all-encompassing narrative. I particularly enjoy listening to podcasts, and I felt I had the best of both worlds: listening to an excellent history podcast on the Crusades while being able to ask all the questions I wanted, with no fear of being judged for them. I highly recommend working with him. I will do so again myself.
I have been taught by Robert during my undergraduate and postgraduate degree in history, politics, and philosophy. He helped me understand and memorize course material, as well as supervised my academic work. I found him to be very patient, well-spoken, and positive—exactly what I needed to complete my degree. During my postgraduate studies, it came in handy that he's got a background in research since he could help me find innovative ways of accessing data, sources, and archives. I don't think I'd have graduated without him! I recommend him as a tutor for both younger and older students. They'd be lucky to learn from somebody this knowledgeable in all areas—his curiosity and well-rounded approach never ceased to amaze me!
Robert is a phenomenal tutor! He was my colleague at St Andrews, where we encourage students to think outside the box. Not only is he trained in history, politics, international relations, and philosophy, he combines them with flare and passion, making learning fun and effective. He's also the most eloquent person I know and always makes students feel listened to and appreciated. I would wholeheartedly recommend Robert for any secondary school or university tutoring!
