 I have a Bachelor‘s degree from Geneva College and minored in cross culture studies. During my 4 years in college I studied history and various ancient cultures. I have over 17 years experience teaching children and teens engaging lesson in both public schools, online courses and private seminars. In all of these experiences, teaching history and culture was a very large part of my job description. I previously held credentials through the State of Ohio  and the state of Minnesota’s Departments of Education (both now expired). I taught in public schools for 2 school years where history and other social studies was part of my duties as an educator. I have over 6 years of experience teaching history to children on online platforms and have taught thousands of kids to live history. I pride myself on never letting kids get bored yet always be learning.  I have a passion for helping children succeed.
