"Hey there! If you're looking to make social studies less of a drag and more like understanding the awesome story of the world (and how it shapes today), that's where I come in. With degrees in history and international affairs, plus a teaching degree, I can help break down everything from ancient civilizations to how governments work now. Think of it as leveling up your knowledge so you can ace that test or just get why things are the way they are.

For parents/guardians, I offer a tutoring approach grounded in both strong subject matter expertise (backed by multiple Master's degrees) and practical experience working with a diverse array of middle and high school students. I have previously held a Social Studies 7-12 certification from New York State before moving in a different career direction. I am actively seeking a return to the teaching field and will be applying for re-certification in the near future.

I have both academic and professional experience creating curriculum and teaching the following courses, aligned with the corresponding state (if applicable) and grade level:

• American History - New York State: Grades 7, 8, 11

• World History - New York State: Grades 9, 10

• Civics & Government: New York State: Grade 12; District of Columbia: Grade 12

• Advanced Placement (AP) American History: Grade 11

• Advanced Placement (AP) Government: Grade 12

• District of Columbia Local History - District of Columbia: Grade 12

My goal is to not only improve academic performance in areas like history and government but also to spark a genuine interest in social studies. By creating engaging and understandable lessons, I aim to build your student's confidence and critical thinking skills in a supportive online environment." less...
