Exceptional and Engaging AP history Tutor

Claire has been an exceptional tutor for my daughter in AP History. She was clear, patient, and always responsive to my daughter's needs. Claire made the complex topics understandable and provided detailed insights into the requirements for the AP exams. Additionally, she is fun to talk to, which makes the learning experience enjoyable. I highly recommend her!

Accommodating and Insightful Tutor

"I took AP World History and AP US History over the past 2 years, and having been new to AP courses, I was really confused with the format of the exam and how to approach questions. Not only did Claire make it easy for me to understand all the SAQs, DBQs, LEQs, and MCQs, but she worked with me through the process to really hone in on my weak points. She taught me the basics as well as advanced AP History specific test-taking strategies in proper fashion and timeliness to make sure I was actually progressing. Not only that, every content weak point I had was covered - which was especially helpful for the high level of mastery of content needed for AP US History. On top of all this - she was fun and pleasant to talk to. I highly recommend Claire for anyone struggling on any or all parts of AP World or AP US History. I would especially recommend working with her to truly find and tackle your specific weakpoints - no matter how many or how stupid you think they might be - because that's where I saw the most growth (ex: the DBQ, Step-By-Step Process for solving an MCQ, specific evidence to use to support "X" argument). I felt really confident when taking the exams, and I was amazed to learn I had earned a 5 on both World and US History! Thank you so much Claire and May God Bless You!"

Great Experience!

Having a child who does not particularly like History, I was concerned when my daughter chose AP World History as one of her classes this past school year. Claire made it easy for her. Helping her understand how to write, DBQ's, FRQ's, in a way that would help her earn top scores. I was pleasantly surprised when I saw that my daughter earned a 5 on the AP World History Exam. Couldn't ask for a better experience. Thanks again Claire!

Highly recommended AP World History tutor

I highly recommend Claire as an AP World History tutor. My daughter looked forward to every class. Claire provided personalized attention, clear and simple explanations of hard historical concepts, and was very patient. As a result, my daughter received an ‘A’ in the course at school and is hoping to earn a ‘5’ on the exam.

Excellent tutor

My son is already seeing improvement in grades after two sessions with Claire. Highly recommend her. Communication is the key and we told her our goals from having sessions with her (short term and long term goals). She understood where we were coming from and worked accordingly with my son. My son enjoyed working with her and looks forward to the next session.
