Social Studies Help

With a Bachelor of Arts in History from SUNY-Binghamton, a Master of Arts in American History from SUNY-Albany, and over 30 years of classroom experience as a Social Studies teacher and as a tutor, I'm ready to help you succeed in your Social Studies classes.  

​

I taught all subjects 9-12 in my years at East Meadow High School, including Global 1 and 2, U.S. History, Government and Economics, and AP® Government.  

Along with reviewing content, I help with week-to-week concerns such as:

• note-taking

• studying techniques

• organizational skills
