Brandon: High School Political Science tutor

As an instructor, I believe that mastery is best served when students can find their stride. A tutor, or any instructor for that matter, should not only clarify difficult concepts, but help encourage an interest in the subject studied overall. Finding the best way to develop that interest begins with determining how best to grapple with difficulties. In so doing, I hope to spur students to a larger, surer understanding of the subjects they study.

Looking for "High School Political Science tutors near me"? Varsity Tutors can help.
If you've ever watched a 24/7 news network, you've probably asked yourself, "Why does government work that way?" High school political science is the course designed to teach American students how our government works, frequently borrowing examples from current political discourse in order to do so. If you or your child are having a hard time following the debate, Varsity Tutors can set you up with an experienced high school political science tutor to help you pursue academic success.
Here are some of the core concepts you may review during high school political science tutoring sessions:
- How the framers of the Constitution intended government to work
- The three branches of government (checks and balances)
- How a bill becomes a law
- The impacts of the two-party system
- Landmark Supreme Court decisions
- The role of media in politics
- The Voter Registration process (potentially including your own registration)
Many of these topics appear dry at a glance, but your high school political science tutor may be able to make it more interesting. They have the time to really get to know you, allowing them to incorporate your passions into study sessions. For example, a student who is passionate about a particular political cause may benefit from using its history to illustrate how government works. Viewed this way, every Congressional victory, judicial setback, and publicized protest becomes a valuable learning opportunity.
