I have been a teacher/tutor for the past 20 years and the thing I love the most about the profession is helping young people reach their goals. I am a certified Social Studies teacher who also holds certifications in Students with Disabilities and Physical Education.

I specialize in all the Social Studies, especially Global Studies, World History, and US History. I have helped students who have some difficulties with the dreaded DBQ's and Thematic essays.

I am fair, have high expectations, and use humor and personal experience to help understand the entire child.

Great tutor

My son had fail global 2 times before tutoring with Adam and within a few sessions his confidence on passing the global regents was enormous. My son really enjoyed the tutoring session with Adam. He said that Adam made remembering and understanding the info so much easier compared to his current teachers. Adam was very determined and confident that he could get my son to pass and he did exactly that. If you are looking for history tutoring for your child Adam is A++++
