As a historian from the Pontifical Xavierian University, I am familiar with the history of Colombia, the Americas, Europe, Spain, Asia, and the Islamic world. I am passionate about teaching and history as a tool for critical thinking. I have gained experience in teaching, research, and designing creative pedagogical strategies tailored to student needs, allowing me to tailor lessons.
Likewise, I can perform the duties of an editor/reviewer for university papers, strengthening the skills of a social science researcher and writer. I am also willing to assist in the research process if needed.

About Me

I'm a historian, graduated from Pontificia Universidad Javeriana, with a focus on Colombian History, European History in general, and knowledge of the Americas, Asian and Islamic world history. I have worked as a university monitor in "Research Instruments" and currently develop research and essays on history, culture, and society. My goal as a tutor is to make History accessible, critical, and relevant to students in their current context.

My classes go beyond memorizing dates and events. I foster critical thinking through the analysis of primary sources, debates, and counterfactual history exercises. I work with a dialogical approach, encouraging students to question, argue, and connect the past with the present. Depending on the student's needs, I adapt the class dynamics to reinforce key concepts, historiographical analysis, or exam preparation.

So, how are they?
- Personalized: I adapt to the student's level and pace, ensuring an effective learning experience.
- Dynamic: It's not just about listening but debating, questioning, and reflecting.
- Example-Based: I use real situations and primary sources to bring History to life.
- Skill-Oriented: Beyond learning facts, I aim to develop analysis, argumentation, and synthesis skills.

Who my classes are for?
- School students seeking History support.
- University students needing reinforcement in historical research methodologies or those who want to explore beyond the tradition of their University.
- Anyone interested in History and its impact on the modern world.

Having studied History throughout my academic life, both at school and at university, I now specialise in providing support for students of all ages.

Whether you're preparing for an exam and need structured, results-based teaching, or prefer to have a more casual environment for discussion, I offer an engaging range of lessons focussing around a variety of historical periods.

The lessons will focus on the periods of history that the student is primarily interested in, whilst also developing a greater understanding of the various historical methodologies that can be used more broadly when examining the chosen periods and themes.

History is the vector that allows us to better understand our society, the world in which we live. It is essential for general culture. The level of the course will adapt to the level of the student, from primary to university. It is also possible to adapt it in relation to an exam or competition to be taken, or to a person wishing to complete their general knowledge on a particular subject.

In my third year of the history faculty at the Jean Moulin Lyon III University, I plan to enroll in a master's degree in medieval history. I want to write a research paper on the French and the Mongols in the 13th century. I would like to go on to write a thesis on the theme of Mongol incursions into Japan (1274 and 1281).
The sessions will aim to deepen or discover concepts about a period. I am comfortable with the era: medieval (especially from the 12th-13th century), modern (it all depends on the region and the century) as well as prehistory.
I am able to establish a progression curve, as well as adapt the lessons according to the need or simply in relation to the expectations of the student. If necessary, repetitions and accentuations on knowledge can take place.
Since I am not yet at the apotheosis of my studies, I will only offer these services to beginners or students (up to high school or first year of history school at the "maximum").
I can also offer help for tests related to the history dissertation or text commentaries, very famous and predominant exercises in studies in the history faculty.

I completed the IB DP with a consistent 7/ high 6 in Higher Level History, and this has always been one of my favorite subjects. I am very good at this subject and have somewhat of a passion for it. I have a very good grasp of what is expected from the IB students as pertains to this subject, and I know the ins and outs of the criteria and the weird and wonderful little ways in which the IB expects the students to perform. I am able to help with any course work, homework, assignments, or assessments. As pertains to the DP students, I also did my EE on a History topic so I can assist there if need be. I am also a tutor in English and as comprehensive writing and legibility is a large part of what is expected from IB History students, I can offer particular insight into how to best write and get arguments across.

History is the analysis and reflections of events of the past, namely conflicts, development and advancement. All aspects of history can be understood in terms of timeline, perspective, and role.

With 10 years of history tutoring experience, it is well recognised that academic history can be demanding and seeking assistance can only strengthen a student’s understanding. With that, chosen topics of interest, topics of confusion and assignments can be worked on in this tutoring sessions.

History is a subject often considered uninteresting. But I try to design my course according to your needs, your difficulties and even facilities in order to create a course in which you will flourish.
Also, I am a student in History and therefore I can help you with the methodology and recommend several books to deepen your subjects.

The course will be divided according to the periods:

First, Ancient Rome, from Romulus to the death of Nero where we will study the different aspects of Roman life and its politics. We will also study Ancient Greece, also considered the cradle of history with its mythology, daily life and the wars that marked it.
The Middle Ages will be studied from the fall of the Western Roman Empire in 476. We will go through Clovis, religion but also royalty.
Then, we will study the modern era with plague epidemics, life under the old Regime and the different kings as well as their life at court without forgetting the wars of religion and absolutist reigns as well as the History of the English Revolutions .
Finally, the contemporary era (where I am most comfortable), where we will study the Catholic Church, the working world but also the global aspects of this period. We will also focus on the two world wars with the civilian impacts they had.

If you want a course on the HGGSP, we will follow the program according to the pace you study in class.
I would also like to train you orally, by doing some courses, by teaching you to master a PowerPoint and finally by teaching you the methodology of the dissertation, the presentation, the text commentary and finally the bibliography.

This class will support students studying history up to GCSE level by understanding exam structure and learning revision techniques to remember important dates. It will include engaging content to provoke interest in students and encourage them to ask questions to improve their knowledge of the subject.

I studied History at GCSE and A level, obtaining a Grade 7 and an A respectively. I also wrote an extended essay on Victorian History at A level, in which I obtained an A also. I have relevant experience working with children; I volunteered at a local youth club for two years and I have extensive experience with childminding. I worked as a Teaching Assistant during Sixth form in history classes so I have knowledge of teaching and student support. I also have a certified Level 3 safeguarding qualification.

The teacher is a Ugandan PhD student in International History at the London School of Economics and Political Science. He won a Government of Uganda Scholarship to pursue his undergraduate studies at Gulu University, gaining a first-class degree in Bachelor of Arts Education (History and Economics). Isa is also a graduate of the University of Cambridge, where he studied for an MPhil in African Studies as a Commonwealth Scholar. He has more than eight years of teaching experience, both at the secondary school and university level. In the past, he has taught classes on European, British, African, US, Asian, and Middle East histories.

My history classes are suitable for the 10, 11, 12, and 13-year-old UK and IGCSE students (Cambridge International Curriculum) and AS and A-Level students (UK and Cambridge International). The learners will study history from political, economic, cultural, and social perspectives. They will develop an interest in understanding the past. Besides learning historical concepts such as cause, consequence, change, and continuity, learners will also gain a deeper understanding of global issues. Above all, students will develop higher-order thinking skills.

Whether your children need support to pass their History subjects (from Primary to High School), prepare for the EvAU (Educational Assessment), or pass a subject you're struggling with at university, or for their Final Project (FYP) or Master's Thesis (TFM) if you're pursuing a Master's degree, or simply want to expand your knowledge of History and general culture, count on me! I have a degree in History and am currently working on my doctoral thesis in Modern History.
