Jacob approaches history the way his literary training taught him: as a discipline built on interpreting sources, constructing arguments, and understanding how narratives get shaped by perspective. His background in comparative literature and German gives him particular depth with European intellect...

Philosophy trains you to reconstruct an argument, identify its assumptions, and stress-test its logic — skills that transfer directly to historical analysis. Moya, currently pursuing a graduate degree in philosophy, applies that same rigor to teaching students how to evaluate competing historical na...

Debugging code and analyzing history require the same core skill: tracing a chain of events backward to figure out where things broke. Michael leans on that diagnostic instinct from his UCLA computer science training to teach students how to unpack document-based questions — isolating a thesis, weig...

Neuroscience training at Brown means Owen spends his time weighing evidence, questioning assumptions, and tracing how one development triggers the next — skills that transfer directly to historical thinking. He's particularly effective at teaching students to outline and draft essay responses that m...

Studying history at Harvard means engaging with primary sources, competing interpretations, and the kind of evidence-based argumentation that goes far beyond memorizing dates. Maya teaches students to read historical documents critically — asking who wrote it, why, and what's missing — which is the ...

Treating history as a series of arguments rather than a list of dates to memorize changes everything about how students engage with the material. Caitlyn teaches students to evaluate primary sources, identify cause-and-effect relationships, and write document-based responses that demonstrate genuine...

Andrew approaches history the way an engineer approaches a design problem — by asking what forces, constraints, and trade-offs shaped the outcome. He teaches students to build arguments from primary evidence and connect cause-and-effect chains across eras, turning a pile of dates and names into a co...

Having lived in multiple communities across different countries, Dylan brings firsthand perspective to discussions of cultural exchange, colonialism, and migration patterns. He teaches students to analyze primary sources and build evidence-driven arguments about historical cause and effect, turning ...

Studying architecture means studying the civilizations that built things — why Gothic cathedrals look nothing like Roman forums, and what political and economic forces explain the difference. Luke brings that material, context-driven perspective to history tutoring, teaching students to construct do...

Nearly a decade of writing short fiction taught Luke something directly applicable to history: every narrative has an argument buried inside it, and the craft is figuring out whose perspective shapes the telling. With an English Honors degree and deep experience in close reading and literary analysi...
