About Me

I've been a professional tutor for the past ten years and a college instructor for the past four years. I have my masters degree in philosophy and hope to enroll in a PhD program in philosophy by Fall 2017. In my free time I enjoy stand-up comedy, strategy/RPG video games, and science fiction.

Q&A with Michael

I believe that the goal of tutoring is to create life-long independent learners and that it is the tutor’s job to provide encouragement and feedback but not answers. A good tutor helps a student develop their abilities to teach themselves and to adapt to new situations, new subjects, and discover new methods that work best for them.
