Hello! My name is Brenna Lara, and I am a Social Studies educator with eight years of teaching experience, including four years at the high school level and four years at the middle school level. I earned my Bachelor’s Degree in Broad Field Social Sciences Education from the University of Wisconsin Oshkosh, with emphases in Geography, Political Science, and History. I specialize in American and World History, US Government and Politics and AP-level Social Studies courses, helping students build confidence, improve academic performance, and strengthen their critical thinking skills. My tutoring approach begins with a broad overview of the content students are expected to learn, followed by focused instruction on key concepts and important subtopics. For AP students, I provide additional support on major themes and topics commonly covered on exams. Lessons are tailored to each student’s needs, and I encourage students to ask questions freely, request feedback on assignments, and actively participate in the learning process. Whether preparing for a test, completing coursework, or exploring a challenging topic, I strive to make learning engaging, supportive, and personalized. I believe social studies is more important than ever in today’s world. Understanding history, geography, government, and current events helps students become informed citizens and thoughtful decision-makers. I offer a free introductory consultation to discuss goals and learning needs, and I ask for a 24-hour cancellation notice whenever possible. All tutoring policies will be reviewed by email before lessons begin. If you’re looking for an experienced and dedicated Social Studies tutor, I would be happy to help!
