In my Philosophy class my proff asked a question I thought maybe
someone here could help me answer. He asked:
"Coherence Theory and Internalism seem pretty similar, yet they are
not. Please illuminate me on the difference."

thanks for the help.

If justification is Internalist if and only if it requires that all of
the factors needed for a belief to be epistemically justified for a
given person be cognitively accessible to that person, internal to his
cognitive perspective && Coherentists typically hold that
justification is solely a function of some relationship between
beliefs [some sort of contextual support of each other], none of which
are privileged beliefs in the way maintained by foundationalists, with
different varieties of coherentism individuated by the specific
relationship among beliefs appealed to by that version.

Harmony between one or more can be seen as coherence.

Internalism is harmony within, from which, one can observe the
illusion of coherence.
