I’ve been teaching one-on-one online for the past five years, specializing in history and sociology. I graduated with a BA in Sociology from Hunter College, which gave me a strong academic foundation to guide students through complex social theories and historical analysis. My students range from high schoolers to adult learners, each with unique academic goals and learning styles.
In history, I help students explore significant events, movements, and periods, often using primary sources and multimedia to enhance the learning experience. For sociology, I focus on the works of key theorists, social structures, and the application of sociological concepts to modern-day issues. I encourage students to see the relevance of historical events and sociological theories in understanding current social dynamics.
Teaching online presents its challenges, especially when it comes to helping students grasp abstract concepts without the in-person connection. I use various tools such as video chats, document sharing, interactive quizzes, and diagrams to make lessons engaging and accessible. For example, I might have students analyze a historical document or map out a key sociological theory to better understand its real-world application.
Over the years, I’ve worked with students preparing for exams, writing research papers, and developing critical thinking skills. Many adult learners seek to apply sociological theory to understand social trends or navigate professional settings. In these cases, I focus on how sociological frameworks can be used to analyze social issues, workplace dynamics, and even global events.
By fostering an open and interactive learning environment, I aim to build student confidence, deepen their understanding, and help them develop skills that go beyond memorization. Patience, adaptability, and clear communication are essential to my teaching approach, and I strive to create a space where students feel empowered to explore ideas, ask questions, and critically assess the material.
