About Dr Howard
Cambridge Graduate | Former KCL Teaching Fellow | Expert Tutor & Academic Coach.
I am a professional private tutor and academic coach with over 12 years’ experience and a demonstrably successful record of helping students achieve their academic goals.
A former Teaching Fellow at King’s College London, I hold degrees from the universities of London, Jerusalem and Cambridge. I am also the author of Israel and the Cold War: Diplomacy, Strategy and the Policy of the Periphery at the United Nations (I.B. Tauris, 2013) and have written for academic journals and newspapers and reviewed for the Royal Institute of International Affairs.
My academic achievements include being the first recipient of the Mikardo Scholarship awarded by the British Foreign Office, receiving a Golda Meir Fellowship at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, and winning a Donner Prize in Atlantic Studies at Cambridge.
I offer bespoke tuition in History, Politics, International Relations and Middle Eastern Studies, alongside Modern Hebrew, at GCSE, A Level and degree level. I also provide dissertation consultation, proofreading, essay-writing guidance and intensive exam preparation.
My approach combines academic rigour with personalised, engaging and confidence-building tuition, helping students develop stronger analytical, essay-writing and critical-thinking skills. My aim is not simply to improve grades, but to help students become more confident, independent and effective thinkers and writers.
My students have subsequently won places at, inter alia, Oxford, Cambridge, LSE, UCL, KCL, Birmingham, York, Sheffield, Nottingham and Sussex.
I hold an enhanced DBS check and subscribe to the annual update service.

Tutoring Experience
In addition to over a decade of private tutoring experience, I was also a Teaching Fellow at King’s College London, delivering MA courses on the Arab-Israeli Conflict, US and British Foreign Policy, War and Peace in the Middle East, and Inter-Faith Relations.
I am a fluent Hebrew speaker and formerly served as a Peer Tutor in Hebrew at University College London, where I was awarded the departmental prize for excellence in the Hebrew language.
Tutoring Approach
My sessions are interactive, confidence-building and results-driven, combining academic rigour with personalised coaching. I help students develop stronger critical-thinking, analytical and essay-writing skills, while building the confidence to perform under examination pressure.
I offer tuition throughout the academic year, including intensive programmes during school and university holidays. These can be particularly valuable for exam preparation, consolidating knowledge, developing skills or helping students regain confidence and get back on track.
My services include:
Dissertation and essay consultation
Exam strategy and past-paper practice
Essay-writing and critical-thinking guidance
Personal academic goal planning
Intensive holiday tuition

Dr Howard is an excellent tutor who is very supportive and makes learning Hebrew enjoyable. My Hebrew has vastly improved with his unique approach to teaching and outstanding knowledge on the subject. Would highly recommend.
Dr Howard taught key modules on my Masters course at King’s College London.
He is an outstanding academic and tutor who mixes deep understanding of the subject matter with a friendly attitude and excellent communication skills. His communication style will put students at ease and he wants to equip his students with the tools and confidence within their subject(s) to succeed by doing so in a highly supportive fashion.
Dr Howard is highly recommended.Howard was an excellent teacher. I always really enjoyed his classes and I came out of the lessons having learnt a lot. I would highly recommend Howard as a tutor.
I found Howard’s teaching methods far superior to my previous experiences. He has a willingness and ability to adapt his approach to suit the individual student’s learning style and needs.
Howard combines considerable experience of the subject matter with a broad general knowledge, to provide a rich contextual background to his teaching, adding interest to the subject and assisting in the learning process.
To add to his technical ability Howard brings an engaging and humorous personality which assists in the learning process and makes every lesson enjoyable as well as educational.
I would thoroughly recommend Howard as a tutor.
