About
Hey! I'm Amelia (or Alex) and I am a proud historian. Born in raised in the state of South Carolina, I'm here to tutor people about history and English. In 2023, I finally graduated from Francis Mario... n University with a bachelors in history with a minor in literature.
Although I am fairly new to the teaching scene, I'm excited to tutor those who need help; I've been collaborating with and helping others for about four-ish years in college. While in college, I've gained and honed the skills of research, analysis, oral history, writing, etc.
My goal as a tutor is to teach students and make them more comfortable with history. Unfortunately, history as a subject seems to have a bad rep because of the teachers, personally, it depresses me to hear that as history is important.
I'm usually around after my hours to answer any questions or help in any way I can, I'm looking forward to working with you!read more

While there, I was trained in conducting oral history and transcribing.read more
