JUAN DAVID BELTRAN

Experienced IB Diploma Programme History educator and former Head of History with a strong track record in curriculum design, exam preparation, and assessment standardization. My pedagogical expertise spans 20th-century world history—including the Cold War, European Imperialism in Africa, and the World Wars—as well as Early Modern history (Tudor England). I place a central focus on rigorous historical source criticism (Quellenkritik), analytical essay structuring, and inquiry-based learning. Additionally, I have successfully delivered IB instruction in multilingual contexts (English, German, and Spanish), adapting teaching methodologies to foster deep conceptual understanding and high academic performance among diverse student groups.
