Ning T.

3 History lessons

What she really focused on were things like the video is not about European history but World history; 2-3 sentences "will not constitute a paragraph in high school, much less in college; human can not be trained and only can be educated". Sure! Ok! When we asked her why she could not help my daughter to finish her assignment, she said it was not appropriate to send her the assignment Friday night because that was her own time and outside the lesson.
Brad W.

18 History lessons

Justin is the history department chair at a local high school. As you might expect, he has total command of the AP US History material. Perhaps most importantly, Justin is able to explain the historical significance of events and to connect one event to the next. My son analyzes events much better as a result, and his classroom grades have improved since he began working with Justin. In addition, Justin has been very helpful in my son's AP test prep.

Victor taught me important topics that I missed throughout my AP US History reading and helped me make certain connections which really helped me prepare for my midterm.
