Ever since bringing refugee children up to and beyond grade-level mathematics while tutoring in the mid-2000s, I have always been motivated by a spirit of service to community, society, and humanity at large. Teaching and tutoring is one small but essential part of that ethos.

Amy

College English Tutor • +13 Subjects

I have a B.A. in French and a diploma in Business French from the Chamber of Commerce and Industry in Paris. I also speak Greek, Italian, and Spanish.I have worked as a private tutor in the area of foreign languages, essay writing, and a variety of other subjects for more than a decade. In that time, I have witnessed the difficulties many students have when learning something that seems unfamiliar, uninteresting, or just makes no sense. Seeing this, I believe it is my responsibility to be a positive influence by ensuring that all my students do well and understand the material. For example, with French, I always give them a brief English grammar lesson beforehand which helps tremendously boost their confidence level as the foreign gradually becomes familiar.I am truly excited about working with students and encouraging them to excel. There is nothing more gratifying than seeing a student conquer his/her fears and expressing him/herself in a way he/she never thought possible. I work with each student’s specific needs in a patient yet firm manner. I also exhibit determination, empathy, and humor to make learning an enjoyable and rewarding experience. Most importantly, I am personable and understanding and believe that brings me closer to helping my students.In my free time, I love cooking Mediterranean/Greek cuisine and would love to open a restaurant one day. I also write poetry, short stories, etc. and am currently working on my first novel. Lastly, I adore knitting and crocheting cute, fashionable clothes and accessories for girls.

AP Biology Tutor • +25 Subjects

I am recent graduate of Binghamton University, with a Bachelor of Sciences in Biology. I am deeply committed to the value of education, and believe that learning is a gift and an opportunity for growth that should be available to everyone. For this reason, I am passionate about tutoring and helping students, so that everyone is able to not only do well in school, but to fall in love with learning in the process. Anyone can enrich themselves through learning. This is the foundation of my teaching philosophy: in addition to emphasizing results and academic achievement, I believe it is integral to find an individual approach to each student and to focus first and foremost on teaching students to study in a way that is effective and engaging. I tutor elementary, middle, and high school students in all subjects. In my free time, I like to go running, practice dance, learn new languages, and play ping-pong.

Anna

ACT Writing Tutor • +27 Subjects

I honestly love tutoring. While working in finance and publishing over the past decade, I have independently tutored students from many premiere NY and NJ high schools and universities. I continued tutoring even after joining a major private equity firm because of how much I enjoy working one-on-one with students. Breaking down seemingly complex subjects is one of my favorite pastimes--it's part of the reason I also enjoy writing about arcane financial topics like quanto spreads on sovereign CDS. I've also developed a newfound respect for the challenges students face when undergoing years of testing after developing my own study plan to pass the first two CFA exams (I'm taking the third exam in June). This experience has shaped how I work with students to tackle test-taking anxiety and master difficult material quickly.I have both a BA and MA in English from New York University.

Catherine

Algebra Tutor • +15 Subjects

Hello! My name is Catherine Raj and I am a second-year medical student at Ohio University Heritage College of Osteopathic Medicine. I graduated from The Ohio State University with a Bachelor's of Science in Neuroscience in 2022. Since 2015, I have tutored children from ages 3-16 in areas of math and reading, as well as their school curriculum. Apart from tutoring here, I have worked for the Kumon Learning Center as a teaching instructor for 5 years. While I am certified to tutor a broad range of subjects, I have years of experience with tutoring young children in math and reading, such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, phonics, reading comprehension, and much more. I connect with elementary and middle school students very well, as I believe in understanding children in order to give them a fulfilling tutoring experience. I also very much enjoy tutoring pre-algebra and algebra as those are my favorite math subjects, as well as my best! My students and I have always had a deeper level of understanding beyond the books and I pride my style of teaching on that aspect.

I love English, and good writing. Since I like working one-or-one or with a small group, tutoring is a great way for me to help young people communicate more effectively in writing. As a social scientist, I also like to talking about statistics and social science. I like to teach by example and ask lots of questions so students can discover answers themselves. When not working, I like to watch movies, exercise, and write science fiction.

Maria

ACT Prep Tutor • +15 Subjects

I received my Bachelor of Science degree in Biochemistry from Denison University. I am currently pursuing an M.D. at Case Western Reserve University. I've been a college-level teaching assistant for both introductory biology and general chemistry. Besides chemistry, I really enjoy tutoring for test prep (ACT and MCAT) because I view these types of tests to be a collection of puzzles to solve. It's a lot of fun helping students to figure out the logic behind these puzzles and apply it broadly, and it's incredibly rewarding to see this integration of knowledge translate to a high score. When working with students, I like to challenge them to identify the purpose of the problem or question and what underlying reasoning can be applied broadly in future questions. In doing so, students gain more long-term usable skills and the ability to think independently.

Frequently Asked Questions

Students often struggle with synthesizing large-scale historical patterns across regions and time periods—understanding how the Industrial Revolution, imperialism, and nationalism interconnected globally, for example. Many also find it challenging to move beyond memorizing dates and events to analyzing causation: distinguishing between what caused a revolution versus what enabled or accelerated it. Additionally, students frequently underestimate the complexity of interpreting primary sources from different cultural perspectives, and they struggle to construct arguments that weigh competing historical interpretations rather than simply stating "what happened."

Strong primary source analysis requires asking three layers of questions: What is the source's perspective, bias, and intended audience? (A 19th-century colonial administrator's account differs fundamentally from an indigenous account of the same event.) What does it reveal about the historical moment, and what does it leave out? Finally, how does this source support or complicate the broader historical narrative you're studying? A tutor can help you develop a systematic framework for source evaluation so you're not just identifying bias, but understanding how to use sources as evidence in your own arguments about causation and historical significance.

Comparative analysis in Honors World History requires moving beyond surface-level similarities to identify structural patterns and causal factors. For instance, comparing the French and Russian revolutions isn't just about listing shared outcomes—it's about analyzing how different economic conditions, social hierarchies, and ideological contexts produced revolutions with distinct trajectories and legacies. Tutors help students build comparison matrices that force you to examine specific variables (land ownership, literacy rates, military structure, intellectual movements) rather than making vague generalizations. This skill is essential for essay questions and thematic units that ask you to evaluate whether historical processes were truly similar or only superficially comparable.

A strong historical argument goes beyond a thesis statement—it requires a clear analytical claim supported by specific, contextualized evidence from primary and secondary sources. Rather than saying "imperialism had negative effects," a strong argument might be: "British imperial policy in India prioritized resource extraction over infrastructure development, which systematically undermined local manufacturing and deepened economic dependency." You then support this with concrete examples (tariff policies, railway construction patterns, textile industry data). Tutors help you distinguish between assertions and evidence-based arguments, teach you how to integrate quotes meaningfully, and show you how to address counterarguments—all skills that separate competent essays from excellent ones in an honors-level course.

Periodization—how we divide history into eras—shapes how we interpret causation and significance. The "Age of Enlightenment" or "Industrial Revolution" aren't natural boundaries; they're frameworks that emphasize certain ideas and changes while downplaying others. In Honors World History, you need to understand both conventional periodization (for exams and essays) and be able to critique it—recognizing that periodization from a European perspective might obscure simultaneous developments in Asia, Africa, or the Americas. Tutors help you use periodization as an analytical tool: understanding why historians periodize as they do, how different periods connect causally, and how to organize your own arguments around meaningful historical transitions rather than arbitrary dates.

Historiography—understanding how and why historians interpret the same events differently—is central to honors-level thinking. Rather than memorizing that "some historians say X, others say Y," you should understand the underlying frameworks: a Marxist historian emphasizes class conflict, a postcolonial historian foregrounds indigenous agency, a demographic historian focuses on population data. The key is recognizing that these aren't arbitrary disagreements but reflect different questions, evidence priorities, and theoretical lenses. Tutors help you evaluate which interpretations are most convincing for specific questions, how to use historiographical debates in essays (showing you understand complexity, not just facts), and how to develop your own analytical perspective grounded in evidence rather than just adopting existing interpretations.

Honors World History tutoring goes beyond content delivery to help you think like a historian—asking questions about who held power, whose perspectives are represented or absent, how institutions perpetuate or challenge inequality, and what conditions enable social change. Rather than accepting narratives of inevitable progress or decline, you learn to examine specific mechanisms: How did the printing press actually reshape power structures? What role did economic incentives play in the Atlantic slave trade alongside ideological justification? Tutors help you construct evidence-based arguments about causation, recognize when correlation is being mistaken for causation, and understand how to use historical examples to think critically about contemporary institutions and social patterns—skills that extend far beyond the classroom.

Beyond subject expertise, effective Honors World History tutors understand how to teach analytical thinking, not just content. They should be able to help you develop frameworks for source analysis, construct evidence-based arguments, and recognize historiographical assumptions. A strong tutor asks probing questions that push you to think deeper ("What does this source leave out?" "Why might historians interpret this differently?") rather than simply providing answers. They also understand how to help you organize complex information across time periods and regions, teach you strategies for managing essay writing under time pressure, and help you see connections between topics—skills that are just as important as knowing the material itself in an honors-level course.
