I am currently a senior at George Mason finishing my BA in History, specializing in the modern era, and Central and Eastern Europe.
My tutoring experience has primarily been with elementary or high school students. I have focused on reading, writing, computer skills, and math for elementary students. For high school students, I can offer experienced tutoring in with composition, history, and SAT prep. Tutoring is a wonderful chance to help others gain confidence in their academic lives. The pressure to succeed in school can be daunting. I have been grateful for help in my studies, and enjoy helping others in turn.
A theatrical plot consists of the selected elements of a story which are chosen to present in a limited amount of time. If the entire sequence of events were explained, that would be history. Such an exploration of all manner of details is the essence of the discipline. Studying across cultures provides insight into our common humanity, and likewise, exploring different eras in history makes it clear that many timeless themes unite people of all eras. Historians the use physical sciences, economics, linguistics, literature and other subject areas to analyze various aspects of civilization. Each era and region has a particular charm. I want to help students find perspectives that make history come alive for them.
I also find Geology very exciting and can help students explore topics like mineral formation, tectonic forces, erosion, and diverse landforms.
Reading and writing are the basis for learning in any discipline. The skills needed to articulate ideas clearly in writing help with public speaking, reading, and analysis in various areas of study. Instructors will consistently require pupils to express their thoughts and findings in different formats like short essays, research papers, and lab reports. Students should learn to examine their own writing critically in order to improve.
