Hi,

I did History for GCSEs too, although I did do some different topics, but here are a few links I used when I studied.

The History Teacher - YouTube - she has playlists on both Early Elizabeth and Weimar and Nazi Germany. She also has a website too.

MrClokeHistory - YouTube - he has playlists for rapid revision for Crime and Punishment, Weimar and Nazi Germany, Early Elizabethan England and the American West

I didn't use Everlearner for history but I did use it for PE and I found it really good so here are links for EverLearner playlists that may be helpful
Elizabethan Society
Thematic Crime and Punishment
Thematic Study: Crime and Punishment - if you follow this link you will see it says OCR however there are videos with Edexcel in the title but other videos may be helpful
GCSE History - again, you will have to scroll but there are videos with Edexcel in the title although like before some of the other videos may be helpful

Mr Swift History - YouTube - If you look at the videos, there are videos for each topic so finding / selecting which video you want may be difficult but he does cover Weimar and Nazi Germany as well as Crime and Punishment and mock exam questions

A long, long time ago... - YouTube - Crime and punishment and the american west and includes revision notes in the description which i found really good.

History Chappy - YouTube - similar to above but you will have to scroll down to find the relevant videos

GCSE History: Queen Elizabeth I
GCSE History: American West

Hope some of these are of help and use to you, Ella - Lancaster University Student Ambassador
