With 3-4 years of experience teaching online and 7-8 years of one-to-one teaching in-class for History and Global Perspectives, I am confident that I can make a valuable contribution to your studies.

I hold a Bachelor's degree in History and a Master's degree in Education. Throughout my career, I have developed a passion for teaching and helping students to achieve their academic goals. My experience teaching a range of courses, including IGCSE, AS, and A-Level History, has equipped me with the skills necessary to deliver high-quality instruction that meets the needs of each individual student.

During my time teaching online, I have developed a range of strategies to engage students in a virtual setting. I have used interactive platforms such as Google Classroom and Zoom to create an immersive learning environment that facilitates discussion, collaboration, and critical thinking. I am experienced in using digital tools to create engaging and informative presentations, and I have developed an extensive library of online resources that students can access at any time.

In addition to my experience teaching online, I have also worked one-to-one with students in the classroom. This experience has given me a deep understanding of how to support students with different learning styles and abilities. I am skilled in identifying the strengths and weaknesses of each student, and tailoring my instruction to meet their individual needs.

I am confident that my experience, skills, and passion for teaching make me a strong candidate for the History Teacher position at your institution. I look forward to the opportunity to discuss my application further with you.
