About Julia
I’m Julia Tanenbaum, an educator and archivist with a passion for helping students master writing, critical reading, and historical analysis. With a Master’s in Library and Information Science from UCLA and a history degree from Bryn Mawr College, I bring a researcher’s precision and a storyteller’s creativity to tutoring. My professional work—curating digital exhibits, writing grants, and teaching research skills—has sharpened my ability to break down complex ideas into clear, engaging lessons. Whether prepping for the SAT/ACT, polishing an essay, or diving into U.S. history, I tailor my approach to each student’s goals, combining structured skill-building with encouragement and real-world context. Let’s turn challenges into confidence!

With a strong academic background in history, digital humanities, and library sciences, I bring a unique blend of research, writing, and critical thinking skills to my tutoring practice. My experience as a curator, archivist, and graduate research assistant has honed my ability to break down complex ideas, analyze texts, and craft compelling arguments—skills I now apply to help students excel in writing, English, SAT/ACT prep, and U.S. history.
My Approach
I believe in personalized, student-centered learning. My goal is to build confidence while fostering a deep understanding of the material.
