Experienced Art Historian tutoring for academic success

Terra M.

As an art historian with a Master’s degree and a deep commitment to education, I bring advanced subject matter expertise and a passion for teaching to my tutoring practice. I have several years of experience teaching and tutoring students across a wide level of abilities. From high school learners needing structured guidance to university-level students preparing for AP exams or writing-intensive college courses, my students thrive with success. I specialize in the humanities, particularly history (U.S., European, and World), art history, English, literature, and writing skills. I offer targeted strategies for standardized test prep, and college application essay help as well. My academic training allows me to translate complex ideas into accessible language, and I tailor my approach to each student’s learning style and goals.

I’ve taught in both classroom and one-on-one settings. I’ve worked as a museum educator, private tutor, and professor. My sessions emphasize critical thinking, clarity of expression, and confidence-building. I help students to grasp content and to also develop the analytical and study skills that they will need long-term.

Whether guiding students through DBQs, writing at the college level, conducting academic research, or helping them interpret visual sources for art history, I encourage curiosity and independence. My method is rigorous but supportive, drawing on active learning and positive reinforcement to make academic work meaningful and fun!
