I specialize in U.S. History, World History, Civics/Government, English Language Arts, study skills, and test preparation. I also have extensive experience helping students strengthen historical thinking, document analysis, analytical writing, DBQs, and AP History preparation. Whether your student needs support catching up, building confidence, or preparing for honors or AP coursework, I create engaging, personalized lessons that meet them where they are and help them reach their goals.

My teaching philosophy is simple: every student can succeed with the right support, encouragement, and strategies. I strive to create a positive learning environment where students feel comfortable asking questions, taking academic risks, and celebrating their progress. I look forward to partnering with your family to help your student grow both academically and confidently.

African American Studies

African American Studies

As a certified Social Studies educator with over 10 years of teaching experience, I have a strong background in African American history, culture, and the experiences of the African diaspora. My graduate and doctoral studies have deepened my understanding of race, identity, social justice, and the historical contributions of Black Americans. I have completed specialized professional development through the Teachers as Scholars Institute (TAASI), where I studied Black women's narratives and overlooked voices in history, and I integrate primary sources, historical inquiry, and culturally responsive teaching into my instruction. My goal is to help students develop a deeper understanding of African American history while strengthening their critical thinking, historical analysis, and writing skills.

I currently teach Civics and Government, using engaging lessons that develop critical thinking, primary source analysis, and civic reasoning. Whether your student is preparing for a classroom assessment, strengthening their understanding of government concepts, or building confidence in the subject, I provide personalized instruction that makes complex topics accessible, relevant, and engaging.
