Tutoring Experience

Over the past eight years, I've tutored students worldwide in US History, guiding them through the complexities of AP exams. My students have achieved outstanding results, with many scoring 5s on their AP US History exams and 7s on their IB assessments. I take pride in not only improving students' grades but also in igniting a genuine interest in history, often leading to a lifelong passion for the subject.

Tutoring Approach

I believe US History is not just a subject to be memorized but a story to be understood and analyzed. In my sessions, I connect historical events to present-day issues, making the material more relatable and engaging. I tailor my lessons to each student's learning style, whether they prefer visual aids, discussions, or a structured approach. My goal is to build confidence and critical thinking skills, enabling students to excel in their exams and beyond. I also emphasize essay writing and source analysis, which are key components of success in history courses.
