Award-Winning Private History Tutoring in Lauderhill, FL

"We started to go over unit 7. Again, the student seems to grasp the big concepts but not the details. We will continue to work on those during our next session."

"Tonight, the student and I began our session reviewing her current unit of study in Human Geography. She is continuing to talk about culture but focusing on how cultural traditions are different throughout the world. She had a PowerPoint from her instructor that we reviewed as a preview of what she will be discussing this week in class. We then spent a good amount of time working on her study guide for her English short story, Young Goodman Brown. She gave me a summary of the story, and we discussed the plot, themes, and characters. One of the questions that she had to answer proposed that the entire story is a dream. We discussed what evidence exists in the piece to suggest that is true but also the evidence that suggests it is false. She landed on the side of it being a dream. She is going to contact me in anticipation of our next session with the title of this week's short story so I can be prepared for our session."

"Today we reviewed the first section of her class's upcoming unit on demography (population studies). While her teacher has not yet begun the unit, I thought it best to introduce the unit so that she recognizes the early material when her teacher first discusses it in class. The first section from her textbook included reasons why people settle in certain locations around the globe. It also introduced the concepts of arithmetic density (population density), physiological density, and agricultural density. She asked some good questions throughout the session including one concerning why these different measurements of population density are important to study. While the method of discussing material from the book might not have been the most stimulating one, she remained engaged and interested throughout the session. Next week we will continue reviewing what she has learned unless she brings home an important assignment or project that I can assist her in completing."
