High School Level American History Tutoring FAQ
American history shaped who we are as a society, and high school students dive in deeply enough to develop a true appreciation for it. Unfortunately, some students have a hard time relating what happened centuries ago to their everyday lives. If you or your child could benefit from more engaging instruction, Varsity Tutors can set you up with an experienced high school level American history tutor who can help pursue your academic goals.
Here are some of the concepts you may explore during high school American history tutoring sessions:
American cultures before getting "discovered" by Europeans
The impacts of colonization
The events surrounding the American Revolution
The causes of the American Civil War
The reasons for American involvement in World War I
The long-term economic impacts of the Great Depression
World War II
The Cold War period
The sheer volume of information can feel daunting, but your high school American history tutor can break things down so that they are easier to understand. For example, a visual learner may benefit from studying flashcards containing information on all of the important people discussed in class. Alternatively, an auditory learner could benefit from a second lecture on any given topic. High school American history tutoring allows students to learn at their own pace, so you don't need to stop studying a given topic until you are ready to move on.
High school level American history tutoring is also a great way to learn valuable academic skills you may not have picked up before. For instance, outlining all of the ideas you wish to include in an essay before you actually start writing it can help ensure that you do not forget anything. Likewise, taking notes during assigned textbook readings may help you retain more of the information discussed.
Your tutor can also get to know you and your needs during high school American history tutoring sessions. They may encourage you to ask your grandfather what it was like to serve in Vietnam, or ask your grandmother what it was like to live through the Depression. Their answers may provide valuable insight that makes history more relatable.
