Hello! My name is Laura! I am from the Rio Grande Valley, in deep south Texas. I taught secondary social studies for 12 years and now work in higher education. I hold a master's degree in History with two bachelor's degrees in Anthropology and Spanish. I have conducted Ethnographic research in Anthropology in Mexico and published articles on south Texas History for the Texas State Historical Association. Currently, I am a stay-at-home mom.

I prepare our sessions before we have them in order to stay focused, on task, and ensure success in the material.

I have taught 8th and 11th grade Social Studies which is STAAR tested. At the college level, I have been a teacher's assistant in World History and Western Civilization. At this level I enjoy supporting students in strengthening their writing and research skills. All in all, if you are looking for an experienced k-12 or college history tutor, I am your person! I look forward to sharing skills, tips and tricks to being successful on exams, research projects, and writing.

I have a strong background in essay writing in MLA, APA, and Chicago (Turabian) format. So, if you need assistance in college essay writing, I am your person! We can do a variety of things like essay outlining, researching and obtaining sources, writing rough drafts, and more!

Laura is the best tutor on this app

Laura is efficient, engaging, knowledgeable, professional and prepared. We have tried a dozen tutors or so for various subjects and she is by far the best. Thank you Laura!

Essay for Western Civilization II

Laura helped me outline my essay for Western Civilization. I a nursing major and am super bad at history. She helped me come up with a way to answer the prompt in my essay, without me having to talk about super complex stuff. She is so nice and does not waste your time. Highly recommend her.

Amazing

I had the pleasure of working with Laura on a major paper, and her assistance was invaluable. She not only helped me transform my writing but also guided me in finding excellent sources, particularly in the field of anthropology. Her expertise and ability to help me navigate complex ideas were critical in improving the quality of my work. Laura was patient, insightful, and incredibly supportive throughout the process. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and effective tutor.
