I am a dedicated and dynamic Social Studies educator with a rich background teaching diverse curricula, ranging from 7th and 8th grade history to advanced college-level courses. My teaching philosophy is centered on fostering critical thinking. I hope to reinforce course concepts while fostering skills that will help students succeed in future courses.
