I tutor the following subjects: 

• U.S. History (APUSH)
• World History ( AP World History)
• European History ( AP European History)
• Social Study
• ESL
• English

I maintain high standards for teaching and learning. In my teaching I have focused on strategies that promote deep understanding, and require students to "use their minds well."  I define this as teaching for all students that

1. facilitates active learning
2. exhibits coherence and continuity
3. promotes critical/creative thinking
4. enhances real-world connections
5. involves reflective thinking
6. fosters understanding of content

I emphasize professionalism, quality, critical and independent thinking, and value for the customer's dollar. 

 

I am an experienced PA certified teacher. I have been teaching for more than 10 years, and tutoring for 4 years.

I have a B.A. in History and an M.A. in Liberal Arts from Villanova University emphasizing history. 

I am an enthusiastic and friendly person who is well organized and punctual.  Hard working and persistent, I only want to teach students who want to learn.  I will not assist a student in cheating and I will not do their work for them.

I have taught history for one year in China, and have taught in various school settings, including as an adjunct professor of history for one year. I have spent my entire life learning and WRITING about history, US government, and politics, along with reading literature.

I would be happy to hear from you, to tutor you, and help you in your journey through life.  It is easy to contact me, seven days a week.  I look forward to meeting you.
