I offer classes on History, Geography, and Political Science, with over 11 years' of experience in these subjects, both professionally and academically. I hold Bachelor's Degrees in both History and Political Science (from the University of Florida), as well as a Master's in Political Science, specifically European Politics (from KU Leuven).

I have extensive experience in a wide range of historical and political subjects and have always had a keen interest in history and the social sciences. Additionally, previously I have been a journalist (dealing with Competition Law) and currently am an editor working on a wide variety of subjects for organizations such as the UNHCR and Goethe Institut, among others.

I am capable of teaching and lecturing on numerous historical and political events and periods in history, with myself having specialized in European history, American history, African history, as well as the Medieval period and Antiquity.

Doctor in political science and graduate in economics (Master), I have been teaching humanities in English and French in various grandes écoles (IEP) and business schools (EDHEC, SKEMA) for more than ten years.

Always respectful of the pace and needs of my students, I help them achieve their goals (preparation of files or entrance exams to high school, validation of exams ...) serenely.

For ten years, my goal has been the same: to help my students to surpass themselves by communicating to them a deep joy of learning.

I suggest you help you refine your file, consolidate your knowledge (general culture, economics or political science) and sharpen your skills (reflection / writing / presentation) so that, rather than arid "tests", your exams become opportunities or occasions to demonstrate your progress.

Learn the methodology in dissertation and document analysis from middle school as well as high school.
This is what is present in History Geography and in the HGGSP specialty, and I offer courses aimed, in addition to helping the learning of courses in these subjects, to put it into practice in an exercise with a built methodology. It is this methodology that I teach, in order to provide the student with independence.
I can also provide homework help in these classes, as well as re-explain and repeat poorly understood course points.
As for speaking in public, it is necessary for the oral exams at the end of high school. I have been part of a debate group for 3 years and have acquired a certain mastery there.
I am a student in high school, in the final year and I already have experience in helping with homework in my high school. I also chose the HGGSP specialty (geopolitics and political science) in second and I obtained my baccalaureate in this subject.

Learn History, Political Science, and Social Sciences with classes designed for students and the general public interested in expanding their knowledge in these fields. These classes are not based on a specific subject, such as Contemporary European History or Political History of the Americas, but rather adapt to the needs of each student and, in this latter sense, are also tailored to their learning level.

I invite you to discuss your objectives and challenges in order to develop a teaching method and techniques that meet your expectations. The course is based on dialogue and mutual trust: it depends on the subject matter being taught, but above all on your desires and goals.
For the past fifteen years, I have taught philosophy, history and political science in various contexts: at university, in high school, in adult education programs, and by giving private lessons to French speakers and non-French speakers.

In the three disciplines offered, my courses aim to enable you to acquire the essential knowledge and methods, and to develop your skills in an individualized way.

I would be happy to support you in preparing for the Baccalaureate, in philosophy and in HGGSP.

Develop a deeper understanding of U.S. history, world history, government, and civics through personalized one-on-one tutoring.

I work with middle school, high school, and college students who need help with coursework, exams, essays, presentations, or simply understanding challenging historical and political concepts. Lessons are tailored to the student's curriculum, level, learning style, and goals.

Rather than focusing only on memorizing names and dates, I help students understand the bigger picture: Why did events happen? What were their consequences? How are political, economic, cultural, and technological developments connected? And how does history help us understand the world today?

Topics can include U.S. history, world history, European and Asian history, U.S. government and the Constitution, civics, comparative government, international affairs, and related social studies subjects.

Before transitioning into education, I spent 16 years as a U.S. Foreign Service Officer, living and working in Asia, Africa, and Washington, D.C. I have also taught in the United States and abroad, served as a graduate teaching assistant at American University, and taught undergraduate students at the University of Maryland. I am currently completing Virginia's EducateVA Career Switcher Program as I transition into education.

My goal is not simply to help students improve their grades, but to help them become more confident learners who can analyze evidence, recognize connections, and explain historical and political ideas clearly.
