History and Political Science: From Founding Ideals to Civic Movement.

This class explores the dynamic relationship between American history and political development, beginning with the Constitutional Convention of 1787 and continuing through the Civil Rights Movement of the 1960s. Students will discover the key historical events, ideas, and figures that shaped the nation’s identity, while also analyzing the evolution of democratic institutions.

In the Political Science portion, we’ll trace the history of U.S. presidential elections from 1788 to the present, including significant shifts in party systems, campaign strategies, and voter participation. We’ll also explore congressional and local elections to understand how civic engagement has changed over time.

Whether you’re preparing for exams, deepening your understanding of American democracy, or simply curious about how history and politics intersect, this class offers a thoughtful, accessible, and engaging experience.

The way things are, are because of how they were. History offers the greatest data set for us to make hypotheses on how we should organize our society and the means we use to maintain and grow it. In this class, we will choose the time periods and locations you are interested in (or have to study for), and do a deep dive on the How's and Why's of those historical events. Using multimedia approaches, such as drawing exercises, maps, historical documents, and more this course will help you:
1. Remember and commit to memory historical events and details
2. Understand the ideas and inventions that transformed the way we interact
3. Write better essays by better structuring and analyzing your ideas

My English, Swahili and History are made simpler as we will have more spoken interaction, fun activities that build on your confidence to speak and express your ideas as there is no wrong answer or questions in my class. We learn language through experience and real life scenarios. We incorporate, discussions, individualised learning and even explore learners curiousity. I' m a teacher by profession and now pursuing a masters degree in education management as I'm interested in researching on curriculum designs and how different learners abilities, curiosity and individual opinions are incorporated in schools and most importantly in classes. I believe every learner has something to offer. It's all about value addition where learners improve on themselves through consistency and practice rather than rote memorization of knowledge and information. I teach with so much patience, empathy and most importantly motivation to allow ourselves to fail and make mistakes in order to learn, no competition with others just us in a safe place to laugh at our slip up and correct them with a light heart.

This series of lessons is intended for students and professionals who wish to develop a strong and structured understanding of the law. Depending on your needs, I can cover core topics such as contract law, liability law, criminal law, constitutional law, and so on. The lessons aim to help you understand not only what the law is, but also why it exists and how it is applied. You will delve into important legal cases, legal principles, and doctrinal debates, and learn how to interpret rulings and connect legal rules to and apply them in real-world situations.

In addition to the basic topics, the lessons can also be expanded into specialist areas such as technology law, media and entertainment law, intellectual property, legal philosophy, or whatever your interests may be—thereby offering a more detailed, specialized, and interdisciplinary perspective.

Each session is interactive and tailored to your needs—whether it involves simplifying difficult topics, reviewing past exams, or preparing for assignments, tests, or work projects. By the end of the series, you will be able to read legal cases with confidence, understand legal reasoning, and approach the law as a coherent, logical system rather than a collection of disconnected rules.

Who is this intended for:
Law students (bachelor or master)
Students preparing for exams or assignments
Professionals who want to delve into specific fields
Anyone who wants to build or refresh a strong foundation in legal subjects
