I don't like just giving you the answer or teaching you a pattern so you can simply get the answer (unless it's absolutely necessary); the element of discovery is missing. So, I'll guide you, and if...

...history is alive and full of useful lessons that can be applied at the personal, national and societal levels, and I enjoy teaching this point of view to students, helping them to see history as a living, deeply relevant subject matter.
