This is an On-Going Outschool class (Private Tutorial) which focuses upon the student's declared interests in Military History. There are several approaches to this class which the student and parent should consider when making a request for a tutorial. Upon deciding which approach is best please allow a week or two for me to prepare a tailored class for your learner. This class will meet once a week on a days and times convenient for the learner and instructor. During the hour tutorial, once-per-week the student will interpret quotations, analyze primary sources, use secondary sources, compare historians' interpretations, analyze battle maps, use military principles as a tool of analysis, and assess military doctrine. Assigned readings provide the context for the lesson and handwritten notes taken should be available for reference during the lesson. The student is encouraged to send a message for clarification or questions between meeting times. All course work should be uploaded via Outschool as text file (preferably MS Word).

Orientación para padres
Presumably the use of military technology for civilian use will not incur any highly emotive scenarios. Perhaps the discussion around the development and use of the atomic bomb prior to discussing the civilian application of nuclear power may be a concern. Understanding the scope and course of this project there will be no need to dwell upon potentially upsetting issues.

I have been a Military History enthusiast for the past 40 years. From collecting (and reading) books, military scale models, table-top wargaming, role playing games, to studying and writing - this exciting topic has thoroughly captured my imagination. I presently hold a M.A. in Military History from American Military University and have taught a variety of History courses which include a great deal of Military History.
I am a certified (7-12) Social Studies teacher and have taught a variety of honors level courses (AS/A Level, GCSE, I.B. and A.P.) in both private and public schools over the past 30 years. Historical writing, source analysis, and exam preparation as well as an immersive approach to the study of history has made my classes both meaningful and enjoyable. My tutoring experience has spanned the entire 21st century with ACT, SAT, SSAT, ISEE, A.P. Histories, and Subject Tests.
