hi!!
I am doing gcse history, and have gotten 9s in all of my gcse history mocks.
my revision tips are to do a LOT of exam style questions to familiarise yourself with the structure, and potentially make timelines for the key events you are studying and put them up in a place where you look at them a lot.
it is certainly possible without a teacher - most of the content I've done is self taught as well because my teacher was sick a lot of the time ;0
hope this is ok!! good luck!!
