About Julia

I’m Julia Tanenbaum, an educator and archivist with a passion for helping students master writing, critical reading, and historical analysis. With a Master’s in Library and Information Science from UCLA and a history degree from Bryn Mawr College, I bring a researcher’s precision and a storyteller’s creativity to tutoring. My professional work—curating digital exhibits, writing grants, and teaching research skills—has sharpened my ability to break down complex ideas into clear, engaging lessons. Whether prepping for the SAT/ACT, polishing an essay, or diving into U.S. history, I tailor my approach to each student’s goals, combining structured skill-building with encouragement and real-world context. Let’s turn challenges into confidence!

About the lesson

With a strong academic background in history, digital humanities, and library sciences, I bring a unique blend of research, writing, and critical thinking skills to my tutoring practice. My experience as a curator, archivist, and graduate research assistant has honed my ability to break down complex ideas, analyze texts, and craft compelling arguments—skills I now apply to help students excel in writing, English, SAT/ACT prep, and U.S. history.

My Approach
I believe in personalized, student-centered learning. My goal is to build confidence while fostering a deep understanding of the material.

A Typical Lesson Plan
Warm-Up (5-10 min): Review previous material or tackle a quick writing prompt/reading passage.

Skill Focus (20-30 min): Dive into the day’s topic—e.g., SAT grammar rules, historical document analysis, or essay structuring.

Application (15-20 min): Practice through exercises, mock test questions, or drafting an essay paragraph.

Review & Goals (5-10 min): Recap key takeaways and set objectives for the next session.

Who the Lessons Are For
Writing & English: Middle school to college students, including AP English, college essays, and general academic writing.

SAT/ACT Prep: High school students aiming to improve scores in Reading, Writing, or Essay sections.

U.S. History: Students in honors/AP courses or those needing support with research papers, DBQs, or historical analysis.
