Humanities Tutor — History, English, Film, Writing
I’m a recent graduate from New York University, where I majored in both history and film. I have three years of experience teaching summer classes to 3rd-9th graders and an encyclopedic knowledge of world history, from the Assyrians to the Zulu.

Testimonials
Allen P. from New York, NY My daughter just finished a series of tutoring sessions with Luke to help her prepare for the AP US history exam. Luke was tremendously effective. My daughter mostly wanted help preparing for the writing portions of the exam. Luke read her practice essays and showed her specifically how to improve her theses and the choice and organization of the material that she included. He also showed her strategies for writing answers to essays questions where she only had partial knowledge of the relevant material. Finally, he reviewed the syllabus and reading material from her high school U.S. history class and prepared material for her to fill in the major content areas that would be included on the AP exam that had not been covered in her class. My daughter went into the exam confident and ready to succeed. Finally, Luke was accommodating of my daughter's busy schedule. I was completely satisfied with Luke's tutoring.
Sally F. from New York, NY It was a great first lesson with Luke today. He is the perfect fit for my daughter's current educational needs. He is patient and gentle in his approach, and thoroughly involved my daughter in the process of meaning and knowledgeable construction, allowing her to think more deeply and encouraging her to apply critical thinking to her projects.
