I have a Bachelor's degree in English composition, along with a Bachelor's and Master's in History. I've been privately tutoring for over ten years, specializing in test prep, essay writing, term papers and thesis/dissertations. As a tutor, editor and proofreader, I will catch the small details and also focus in on overall themes. I work with my clients to help them understand the rules and apply them effectively and confidently. Writing a strong thesis is an essential foundation for any essay, term paper, thesis, or dissertation and I can teach you how to master this skill. I have been published in national magazines and I have been the associate editor of a regional magazine in Northern California for over a decade. I have a passion for history and I believe that good grammar is an essential life skill.

I also teach my clients research skills, because AI is often incorrect. I am skilled at locating primary and secondary sources and teach these essential research skills to my students. I also help students master correct citation formats. Citations can seem complicated but they are a critical component of any essay or paper. Poorly cited work can result in accusations of plagiarism and failing grades. I am proficient with MLA, APA, and Chicago. I also work with clients on college entrance essays, and help them find unique ways to stand out. One of the most important life skills, regardless of the subject, is asking for help. I'm here to help you achieve your goals.

United States History

I have both a bachelor's and a master's in history. My focus is on the Modern American West, but I am well-versed on many aspects of both US and World history. I have minors in anthropology and museum studies, with experience in developing and curating oral history and public history projects. I will help you master the nuances of historiography, helping you craft your thesis, construct your argument, conduct research to find primary and secondary sources, and correctly cite your work. I have been tutoring high school and college students in history in many diverse history related fields for over ten years. I excel at helping my students construct well-crafted essays, term papers, and both undergraduate and graduate thesis projects. If you need help preparing for comprehensive exams, I can teach you effective study strategies, so you'll be primed and confident on testing day.
