About Martha

For over 25 years, Martha Infante Thorpe has engaged the minds of diverse learners of Southern California. As a National Board Certified Social Studies Teacher, Martha has taught and tutored students at the middle and high school level.

Martha's specialties are underachieving gifted students, reluctant learners, and students on the autism spectrum, however all students are welcomed!

As a Fulbright scholar, Martha has gained effective tutoring strategies from Finland, China, and Japan. In conjunction with tried and true techniques from home, students overwhelmingly rate her classes as engaging, informative, low-stress, and easy to understand.

As a consultant to the California Department of Education, Martha led an education commission to build a Blueprint for Public Schools, which was the foundation for the State Superintendent of Public Schools Tom Torlakson's second term. The resulting policy document was called Greatness by Design, which mirrors what can be accomplished by a quality tutoring relationship.

Finally, as the Past President of the California Social Science Association, Martha has access to a wide array of resources to augment and enhance tutoring sessions.

History is fascinating, and if shared the right way, students can find meaning and engagement in the various courses offered during their secondary schooling. Having worked with thousands of students, I love helping students find a joy for learning, even if it means using non-traditional methods.

Trained in the following:

Gifted and Talented Education

Second Language Learners

Diverse Populations: Autism Spectrum, ADHD

Masters in Education Technology

Advanced Placement Institute: Human Geography

Advanced Placement Institute: World History

About the lesson

In the first session, we get right to work by setting an assignment goal that they need to complete. As we work on the assignment, I ask questions to get to know the student. As I become more familiar with the student, I tailor the sessions to address their learning style and bring in resources that will help get them on their way.

Marth Infante goes above and beyond not only to prepare her students but to engage and build a relationship with them. Through her hands-on learning style and positive attitude, she is able to not only help students understand their topics but gain a real interest in them that follows them beyond the class. She helped me pass my AP Human Geography test which I wouldn't have been able to do without her. Working with Ms. Infante is the best decision you could make as a student or a parent of a student.
