Hello! My name is Josh T., and I am a High School Social Studies teacher, Adjunct Professor, and AP Exam grader for the College Board with over 10 years of classroom experience.

I specialize in AP World History: Modern, AP Human Geography, Government, and Political Science, while also supporting students in standard-level World History, Geography, Civics, Economics, and Personal Finance courses. As an AP grader, I have direct insight into how essays and free-response questions (SAQs, DBQs, LEQs) are evaluated, allowing me to guide students using rubric-based strategies and exam-aligned expectations.

I hold a Bachelor’s degree in History and a Master of Arts in Teaching from James Madison University and am licensed in 6–12 Social Studies and English. My sessions focus on building content mastery, strengthening analytical and argumentative writing skills, and developing structured approaches to essays and exam prep.

Whether a student is preparing for an AP Exam, improving classroom performance, or building foundational skills, I tailor each session to their specific goals. Students I’ve worked with consistently report increased confidence and stronger academic performance.

If you’re looking for structured support in Social Studies, I would be glad to help!

Excellent teacher not only at teaching but also communicating

My daughter started with Josh about a month ago for history / geography topics. Not only he is really good at teaching the subjects, Josh also makes the kid very comfortable and more confident on participating. She is now looking forward to the class at school and even think she should take a AP history class next year.

Knowledgable and patient

Josh is understanding and has a way of explaining things that make sense. For a kid who is very math and science focused this is an impressive accomplishment. Josh offers more than content and knowledge, he also shares systems and helped with study skills. We are grateful to have found Josh.

Very kind, knowledgeable, patient tutor.

Josh has been tutoring my son in college Geography and college Geography Lab Manuel. He knows this topic very well and has actually taught College Geography since he is a Professor. My son is very fortunate to have found him as a tutor. He understands how the student learns and teaches to his learning style. He has a lot of patience and works together with the student. My son really learns Geography from him. My son is doing online college but always does better with a tutor. You will love working with Josh if you decide to use him as a tutor.
