"I'm Michael. I hold a bachelor's degree in political science and a master's degree in liberal studies with a concentration in archival studies. I have taught study skills, reading, and writing at the collegiate level and have tutored for years in disciplines ranging from sociology and psychology to history and English literature. By trade, I am a professional writer. My first book was published by McFarland & Company in 2019 and I have spent the last several years writing study guides for nonfiction books for educators, readers, and students.

While my academic training is in the social sciences, I have a firm grasp on a variety of subjects at both the high school and collegiate level. I am especially skilled at writing and teaching others how to write. Regardless of the academic level or academic style (MLA, APA, or U. of Chicago at the graduate level), syntax, properly citing research, and avoiding plagiarism seem to be the aspects of writing that trouble students the most. This is precisely what I can help students with and make the formulation of a high school or college essay far easier. Additionally, American history, civics, social studies, and government are subject in which I have expertise.

I am readily available, easy to contact, and always provide prompt responses. Please feel free to contact me with any questions you may have or to schedule a session." less...
