# Tutorial Board ## expand\_more History & Literature's Tutorial Board is comprised of lecturers who guide students through the sophomore, junior, and senior tutorials. Browse their profiles to learn about the cutting-edge, interdisciplinary research they bring to Harvard. The reputation for excellence in teaching that History & Literature has built over the years is largely due to the gifted teachers on the Tutorial Board. Our tutors are one of the program's strongest assets. A representative group of tutors serves on the Committee on Instruction, which meets to consider student petitions, advising and curricular matters. [### Angela S.
