I have worked as a tutor for several years and taught a variety of subjects. My main goal is to equip every student with tools they need to be successful. I care more about comprehension and learning, than grades. I work with each student individual to develop a personalized plan of organization, motivation, and accountability.

I have tutored students in European History,including adults working on taking the CSET to become a California licensed teacher. I have tutored students here in San Diego on US History, as well as taken the AP History exam, scoring quite highly. I also minored in it in undergrad. I'm originally from Virginia and grew up in the most historic city in the US, which gives me a leg up on actually being able to talk about people and places. In addition, I have written several papers on a variety of historical topics.
