Michael C.

Private tutor in Jersey City, NJ

Education

…I earned a BA from Middlebury College in 1999 and an MA in English from Seton Hall University in 2009. At Seton Hall, I graduated with Honors and also won the annual New Jersey College English Association essay writing competition. As a published writer and experienced educator, I am excited to empower young students with more effective reading and writing skills.

Experience

...I have worked with English and Language Arts students of all different levels. As a teaching assistant at Seton Hall, I was thrown into the fire as the lead instructor of two college freshman English courses. It was a challenge, but I started to believe I had chosen the proper discipline to shape my life around. After that, I took my talents to a charter high school in Jersey City where I taught English, Creative Writing, and Film and Literature. It was at the high school level where I took an interest in tutoring after school, and discovered my strength in the more focused one-on-one approach to learning. I have also worked with middle school students as a language arts instructor. I am currently a state certified English teacher in New Jersey, but tutoring is now my focus. I target middle school language arts, high school english, the college application process, and all varieties of standardized test prep, specifically the SAT.

Hobbies

Most of my days are spent furthering my tutoring business, exercising, writing fiction, reading, and playing guitar. I also caddie at a golf course to make some extra money. Whenever possible, I try to get in a round of golf for myself. And in the winter, I look forward to skiing at least a handful of days in Vermont.
