Experienced AP Art History, AP US/World History, and Test Prep Teacher
My name is Buck and I am a tutor and high school teacher with 10 years of experience in the field. I have taught just about every English and History class available to high school students over the years. I received both a B.A. (St. Louis University 2009) and M.A. (University of Memphis 2013) in Art History.

Patient and very understanding tutor
Buck and I went through a DBQ of the changes of foreign policy with the US during 1783 and 1828. Although I wasn't ready as I thought of, realizing that he is willing to go through the old units to refresh my memory meant a lot to me. Buck won't shame you for any lacks of understanding, he is here to help pass the AP exam.

Very knowledgeable and helpful tutor for Art History at the university level
Buck helped me with my college Art History class. For the first few sessions, he provided insights and went over certain pieces of art with me as well as time periods so I could understand the major themes. Buck can cover a wide range of time periods in art. We reviewed Roman and Byzantine art and Romanesque and Gothic cathedrals. We looked at Saint-Foy, and other pilgrimage cathedrals and reliquaries. We also looked at Notre Dame to go over aspects of Gothic architecture. And, he is well versed on South American and Mesoamerican cultures. We used online images and PowerPoints for the works to study key components of the images and their purpose or function. Buck also helped me prepare for writing my final exam essay. He made the art much easier to understand and helped me create a good outline for my essay. I would highly recommend Buck for any art history tutoring at the university level. He was always prompt, responsive, and insightful. We worked together online and not in person and it was still very worthwhile and effective. Having Buck as a tutor was invaluable in my preparation for my exam.

Reliable tutor
Buck was extremely accommodating to my schedule as we did a multi-hour cram session before my APUSH midterm. He was able to quickly and thoroughly get through a ton of the material. We even had time to work on SAQs which he helped me break down and understand how to answer them better. I would highly recommend him if you need APUSH tutoring.

Buck has really helped my daughter out as a tutor for both AP US History and English Literature. He has helped her prepare for AP tests by covering the content and practice exam questions. He also helped her with Literature, including writing poetry and working of Theme for other pieces of literature. He is also good at working with NY Regents exam material for both history and English. He really explains his topic very well in a way that’s easy to understand.

Knowledgeable tutor
He was able to go over short answer questions and explained how to write a DBQ to me so that I had a solid understanding of what it was. He gave me insight and background on the topics we discussed during the lesson, which was very helpful as well.
