As a teacher of history for 15 years now, I have worked with students of all levels in private schools and online homeschooling, including students just starting out and older students who never received a proper history education until it was too late.  The former group is a joy to work with, because as a teacher you get to guide them into a wonderful world of exotic stories and important lessons.  The latter is so difficult to help, because in most cases the window of opportunity to impart the value of history has passed.  Having so much experience with both groups, my goal in this class is to help you give your child the gift of the kind of compelling history education neither you nor I received, and thereby help prevent them from being relegated to the group of older students later in life that just cannot connect with a subject they see as irrelevant.
