Christopher: Thousand Oaks tutor

Certified Tutor

As a passionate educator with over 5 years of tutoring experience, I am dedicated to fostering a supportive learning environment where students can thrive academically. I hold a PhD in History of American Civilization from Harvard University, complemented by a Master's in History and another in the History of Christianity from Yale University. My expertise spans a range of subjects, including AP U.S. Government & Politics, AP World History, and ACT English, which allows me to connect with students from seventh grade to graduate level. I believe in a student-centered approach that encourages critical thinking and engagement with complex ideas, drawing on my background in social sciences and humanities. My motivation for tutoring stems from a deep commitment to helping students navigate their educational journeys and discover their potential. Outside of teaching, I enjoy exploring art history and engaging with diverse cultures, which enriches my teaching methodology and enhances my students' learning experiences.
