"Hi I'm Cory! I hold a bachelor’s degree in history with a focus in secondary education from Boise State University. My academic background laid a strong foundation in both historical content and effective teaching strategies, which I’ve continued to build upon throughout my career. I specialize in U.S. History and World History, and I’m committed to making these subjects engaging and relevant for all learners.

With over eight years of classroom teaching experience in both middle school and high school settings, I’ve worked with a diverse range of students and learning styles. I also have experience tutoring elementary students in a variety of subjects. I understand how to break down complex topics into manageable concepts and create an encouraging environment where students feel confident to ask questions and grow. Whether a student is preparing for an exam or simply looking to deepen their understanding, I tailor my approach to meet their individual needs.

I’m passionate about helping students succeed—not just academically, but in becoming critical thinkers who can connect past events to the present. History is more than memorizing dates; it's about understanding people, patterns, and progress. I look forward to supporting students in reaching their full potential.

I am easy to reach and will usually respond to requests or questions within 24 hours! Please feel free to reach out any time!" less...
