Thomas B.
Private tutor in Greensboro, NC
Education
Hi my name is Tom and I am a student at the University of North Carolina at Greensboro. I have received a Bachelor's degree in History with a concentration in Secondary Social Studies education at the University of North Carolina at Greensboro. I started my career at UNCG the fall of 2007 and I graduated in the spring of 2011. I am from Charlotte NC, but I live in Greensboro during the school year. I am currently a first year Graduate student at The University of North Carolina at Greensboro. I will be living off campus so I will be able to meet students who need help all year. I love all types of history so I will be able to help anyone who needs help to develop a better understanding of history.
Experience
During my time as an undergraduate at UNCG, I pursued my teaching license. In order to receive this license I had to complete student teaching at a local high school. I was placed at East Forsyth High school in Kernersville NC, as part of my student teaching. While student teaching I taught Civics and Economics and I worked very hard with the students so that they could understand the material. I have experience tutoring students in the subject of history, I would meet with students before or after school during my student teaching to tutor or provide any help that was necessary. I love to teach, history and teaching are my passion. All I want to do is to teach history for the rest of my life and I would love to tutor anyone who needs help in any sort of history. I have taken many history classes as well as education classes at UNCG. I have learned so much information. I understand history can be boring and I believe that for a student to do well with learning history, you must make learning fun and relevant to the students. I have experience from my student teaching working with students and I am willing to do my best so that your child will succeed. My overall GPA when I received my Bachelor's degree from UNCG was 3.44.

Hobbies
I am an easy going, laid back, and polite guy. My hobbies include skateboarding, playing guitar, and just learning about history. I love to read and I love to go outside and enjoy a sunny day. I am a big history buff, its obvious because I have a degree in history, and I love music. I love all kinds of history and I have saved all my notes that I have taken from my history classes at UNCG so that I may stay on top of all of the information that I have learned.
