Education is a life long pursuit of mine. I believe that one should strive to discover and learn new things, for this reason I am drawn to the words of Mark Van Doren, “the art of teaching is the art of assisting discovery.” I look forward to increasing the skill set of my students through personalized tutoring focused on communication, listening, reading, writing, and critical thinking. Here's a snapshot of my teaching experience, at what level I taught, and my education. Feel free to visit my website as well for additional information!

My name is Mike and I am an experienced writer who has a vast amount of experience writing for several mediums, most recently Chicago Innerview Magazine. I believe that subject material can be better understood and retained if the reader is able to personally relate to the subject matter, or able to think of the topic in terms of modern times. I truly believe that I will not only be able to help all students excel, but also that I will reignite a spark inside of them that makes them WANT to read out of a thirst for knowledge.
