This is a semester course that meets once a week for 1 hour. This class examines United States history, starting with colonial settlements until the Civil War and Reconstruction. The class is a lecture- and discussion-based course. Participation is required. The course will provide multiple perspectives, including the historical perspectives of women, and Native Americans, as well as exploring the experiences of racial and ethnic groups, including African American and migrant history. No prior knowledge is required. This course follows the California history and social science standards for eighth-grade US history. Students will study the ideas, issues, and events from the framing of the Constitution up to the Civil War. After reviewing the development of America’s democratic institutions, students will learn about the challenges facing the new nation, with an emphasis on the causes, course, and consequences of the Civil War. They make connections between the rise of industrialization and contemporary social and economic conditions. The curriculum will be as follows: Week 1: The Great Awakening and revolutionary fervor.

I have been teaching at Outschool for 2 years. I strive to teach social studies, civics, and history in a way that inspires and entertains while fostering curiosity and critical thinking.
I love teaching and Outschool allows me to share my passions for various subjects with young minds. I've taught (as a guest) both middle, elementary, and high school social studies, government civics, technology, and history. I’ve taught at the University of Maryland and am currently an adjunct law professor at Catholic University School of Law in Washington, DC. I have also taught at the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center, in Brunswick, Georgia and have published in several academic legal journals and publications
