To understand History we need to understand the overall story of it and how things fit together. In this class learners will learn about the overall story of American History by looking at the smaller stories that are a part of it. From the early Indigenous Peoples to the first and major European powers. The groups covered will be First Indigenous Peoples, Ancestral Pueblo, Adena, Mississippians, Algonquin Nation, Haudenosaunee Confederacy, arrival of Europeans, Spanish, French, Dutch, and English. The class will be taught from a general factual perspective.

Teacher expertise and credentials
I love history and learning about how people lived during different times. I like to do research into how people lived and trying things out for myself. I believe the best way to learn about something is to try and experience it first hand and through this class we will try to experience this as best we can. I have traveled extensively and interacted with many cultures firsthand, so I have a broad first hand experience and understanding of different cultures and their effect and perspective on the world. I teach history classes on Outschool in a variety of formats and subjects, including many that include sensitive topics.Reviews
