"I am a certified Social Studies and Spanish teacher in Pennsylvania with over three years of experience teaching history at the high school level. As a native Italian speaker born in Italy and fluent in Spanish—thanks to my Chilean wife—I have also helped students develop fluency in both languages. Throughout my career, I have worked with a wide range of students, from high school learners to college students, assisting them with history, language acquisition, and academic writing. In the classroom, I focus on fostering critical thinking, helping students engage with historical sources, and guiding them in constructing well-supported arguments in their essays.

My tutoring approach is structured, supportive, and tailored to each student’s needs. As a history teacher, I emphasize historical analysis, primary and secondary source evaluation, and persuasive writing. I have successfully prepared students for standardized tests, AP exams, and college-level coursework by breaking down complex historical narratives and strengthening their ability to analyze and articulate ideas effectively. In language instruction, I integrate grammar instruction with conversational practice, ensuring that students build both technical proficiency and confidence in real-world communication. When tutoring academic writing, I focus on organization, clarity, and revision strategies, equipping students with the skills to write effectively across disciplines.

I am passionate about helping students succeed, whether they are striving for fluency in Spanish or Italian, preparing for history exams, or improving their writing skills. My goal is to provide engaging and effective tutoring that builds confidence and academic success. I look forward to working with students who are eager to learn and achieve their full potential!" less...
