Our History Admissions Assessment tutors have extensive experience with the HAA, both through having successfully sat the test and then gone on to tutor it.

Here is a sample of the HAA tutors we represent:

Feedback on the HAA tutors we work with
"I can鈥檛 thank you enough for all of your support and guidance, it was most definitely the distinguishing factor that helped me to get an offer. All of your advice and tips for the AHAA, for the interview and approaching History in general were so useful and much more specific and practical than what I was being told at school. I truly could not have done it without you. Your teaching methods and advice work!"
Successful Cambridge applicant"Tim was instrumental in my success in receiving an offer to read History at the University of Cambridge. He prepared me for the History Admissions Assessment and my interviews, overseeing practice sessions for both these formats. In particular, it was during Tim鈥檚 mock interviews that I gained the confidence and language to present my ideas academically. Most significantly though, working with Tim taught me how to think, in my case, like a historian."

How our HAA tutoring works
The HAA tutors we represent can help your child refine their skills at analysing texts, and develop their ability to develop and communicate their thoughts and arguments about them clearly. They can take your child through practice HAA papers to familiarise them with the time pressure and challenging nature of this exam. They can provide detailed feedback on practice essays, and focus on developing areas of strength and reinforcing those topics or skills which your child finds challenging and approaching History at higher level.
All tutoring is tailored to the individual needs of each child based on their strengths, weaknesses, learning style and the entrance procedures of the course they are applying to.
We can guide your child through every step of the competitive application process to study History at Cambridge and introduce you to specialist tutors who can support with applications and preparation for the HAA and History interviews as well as broader application support and further reading recommendations.

Articles on HAA tuition
History Admissions Assessment (HAA) Cambridge
Cambridge’s History Admissions Assessment, or HAA, is still a relatively new exam. It launched only in 2016, when the abolition of AS-levels deprived the university of a favoured metric which its colleges had used, up to that point, to help determine admissions decisions in history in place of a written exam in the style of Oxford’s well-established HAT.
History Super Curricular Activities
How do Super-curricular Activities help applicants to top Universities? Anybody can say that they have a passion for history and many people do. Most of us are interested in some aspect of the past, whether we are keen students of local history or the traditions associated with our favourite sport, or fascinated by a particular figure whom we have encountered in a book or historical drama on TV.
