A passion for history like no other :)
I fell in love with it in 11th grade when my US history teacher told me a story about Winston Chuchill during a unit on World War Two. I thought he knew more about history than any man in America. I wanted to be just like him because he showed me the value in understanding history and how well it applies to the present.
I have been teaching history since 2006 and have amassed an array of successes

1. Brief assessment of
a) goals and expectations
b) learning modalities and strengths/weaknesses
c) note-taking strategies as well as study habits
2. Assess and reassess on a continual basis
3. Ultimate goal is to create independent learning
I worked in special education and hold a certificate to teach students with disabilities K-12. I've also worked with students as recently as last year who currently attend Ivy League schools.
To come see me. My content knowledge is second to none. I've lectured at academic conferences all over the country, from Stanford to Brown, but my pedagogy is geared toward young learners in middle and high school grades.

A few things worth thinking about before reaching out
They need to think about why they are trying to excel. What is their goal? A number on a report card? Something tangible that they can use later in life? If the motivation is superficial, it will be difficult to make the kinds of historical connections that are necessary to develop the skill set that students need to become independent learners once the tutor goes home.

Dr. Pellegrino explains concepts in a way that makes it easy to understand and does a great job of connecting one historical event to the next so that you can understand what happened better. I felt better prepared on test and quiz day and performed better immediately.
