"Hello! My name is Caryn and I have eight years of teaching experience. Last year, 75% of my classroom students passed the APUSH exam. I focus on meaningful content instruction, making connections and historical thinking skills, and analytic writing.

Right now I’m a stay at home mom, but I miss teaching, so I would be happy to help with your areas of growth in history courses or writing. Knowing each student as a unique learner and adapting to different learning styles is key to my teaching and my tutoring practice.

After 8 years of AP experience I have numerous resources, materials, and tools to help you succeed.

Please reach out with any questions!

I have experience teaching and giving feedback on DBQ, LEQ and short answer writing, as well as other types of historical and analytical writing.

In my years at my previous school, the APUSH pass rate tripled given my focus on writing instruction.

I also scored in the 98th percentile on the written portion of the GRE. I am able to give feedback on content, structure, and grammar.

I have experience teaching civics and United States history at the honors and advanced placement levels. I majored in political science in college and also took history courses at the graduate level.

I love history and I hope to help you love it, too! There is no better feeling than finally getting something to click when you begin to understand that history is a complex, interwoven story just waiting to be uncovered and understood." less...
