"If the Queen taught history then Russel Tarr would be a knight of the realm. His superb site has saved me thousands of hours of planning and is a constant source of innovative and exciting ideas...the site is well worth the subscription cost"

"As Russel Tarr [author of ActiveHistory] demonstrates...inspired history teaching is very much alive and well in our classrooms"

"To see teaching creativity bubble onto the internet, and regain any lost joy for school, take a trip to Active History...discover an enjoyable, intensely hands-on learning environment...The exercises are witty, irreverent and often brilliant...a labour of love and a genuinely helpful service"

"[ActiveHistory] continues to provide what is perhaps the best history site around...a finger on the pulse of what students want...highly recommended"

Approved Content provider
"ActiveHistory.co.uk...aims to provide students and teachers with engaging and original materials to 'spruce up' traditional schemes of work...providing fresh approaches which would be impossible to achieve in a traditional classroom environment"

The "Virtual Interview With Adolf Hitler" [is] an interactive activity that lets you type questions and receive responses...it has drawn a wide audience and inspired controversy in some quarters...But a greater number of visitors, including many teachers, have praised Mr. Tarr's effort to help explain Hitler's rise to power and to show that "Hitler could have happened in any country"
