ABOUT

I started tutoring college students in 2013 when I realized that many students wanted to improve their study skills, essay writing, and historical knowledge in ways that are impossible in a strictly classroom-based learning environment. Students who came to my office hours and who worked with me one-on-one always improved their grades and scholastic abilities. Students who were failing my class brought their grades up to passing, and students who just needed a little help getting over the hump from a B to an A saw their efforts paying off by the end of the semester. Most importantly, these students saw their skills grow—skills they would then use for the rest of their academic and professional careers. I helped an engineering student from Iran ace a test about the Nevada Constitution; I helped a first-generation college student struggling to keep her financial aid stay in school; and I helped an English language learner write an essay that scored her an A in History 100.

I want to get at the heart of your student's struggles. Do they have a hard time expressing themselves in writing? Do they need help preparing for tests or analyzing the information in their textbooks? I can help. I've worked with diverse groups of students for over ten years. I've tutored high school and junior high students in social studies, writing, and test prep. I've worked with college students majoring in a variety of disciplines with various language, cultural, and educational backgrounds.

My scholarly specialties are twentieth-century American history, cultural history, social history, and history of journalism and the media. I have taught American and European history, social studies, and US Constitutional history and the Early Republic. I've mentored students to help build their college, writing, technology, and computer skills.
