Teaching methodology
My teaching approach focuses on fostering clear communication, empathy, and collaboration to create an effective learning environment for AP US History students. I believe that understanding history requires more than memorization; it’s about connecting with the material and seeing its relevance today. I encourage open communication, where students feel comfortable asking questions and expressing their thoughts. By listening and understanding each student’s challenges, I tailor lessons to meet their individual needs and learning styles. Collaboration is key in my lessons. I guide students through key historical periods like the American Revolution, Civil War, and Civil Rights Movement, encouraging them to engage in discussions, analyze primary sources, and think critically. My approach is grounded in integrity—providing honest feedback, building trust, and promoting a deep, lasting understanding of history. Alongside AP US History, I can also help with related subjects, ensuring students gain a comprehensive understanding of American history’s role in shaping the world.
