Why it works
What Are High School History & Geography?
From Grade 7 onward, Ontario splits Social Studies into History and Geography, then into named credit courses - CHC2D Canadian History since World War I, CGC1D Issues in Canadian Geography, and CHV2O Civics and Citizenship. British Columbia continues Social Studies through Grade 10 before branching into specialised Grade 11 and 12 courses such as 20th Century World History and BC First Peoples. What changes at this level is the assessment: students stop recalling and start arguing from evidence, which is where most of them need help.
- 01 Matched to the course code and provincial curriculum
- 02 Same dedicated tutor for continuity
- 03 Source analysis and essay structure taught explicitly

Which courses do you cover?+
Ontario Grade 7 and 8 History and Geography, CHC2D, CGC1D and CHV2O, and BC Social Studies 8 to 10 plus the Grade 11 and 12 branches including 20th Century World History and BC First Peoples.
My teen knows the content but loses marks on essays. Is that normal?+
It is the most common pattern we see in senior history. Marks come from argument and evidence, not recall, so we work on thesis construction, source integration and structure directly.
Do you cover Alberta Social Studies here?+
Alberta's senior sequence is numbered rather than split into history and geography, so it has its own page - Social Studies 10-30, which includes diploma exam preparation.
