Professional, Graduate, MBA and Ivy League Tutor

Economics - Finance - Accounting - Statistics - Professional and Academic Writing - Speaking/Presentation

Hi All,

For six years, I've helped academics and professionals, graduates and undergraduates, both in person and remotely in London, Boston and Washington, DC.

Teaching is my passion and I dedicate myself to my clients, filling that knowledge deficit in the areas you see at the top of this page. I teach these topics because they are what I know and I know them well. You are welcome to a complementary two-hour session with me, so you can decide if it's what you're looking for--absolutely no obligations and you won't pay me a cent.

-Mike

Writing

I've helped students develop their own personal brand for personal statements for graduate programs at:

Harvard University

My secret is to use the same strategy that the best branding and marketing teams use--identifying what facets of your story will position you best for the program(s) you're looking at. Then, you and I will organize and develop ideas, polish your... Read More

Statistics

Along with economics, I've probably tutored statistics to more clients than any other subject. If you're studying business, you'll be taking stats. If you study any of the social sciences (economics, psychology, anthropology, etc.), you'll be taking stats. Studying the natural sciences? Guess what.

I've tutored statistics to graduate MBA candidates at Boston College and George Washington University and undergrads at a host of schools.

Particularly if you're taking stats... Read More

English

Teaching is my passion. And if there is one area that I love interacting with students in the most--it's learning a language. For six years, I studied Spanish and Latin formally. And incidentally, I learned quite a bit about my own language, English, that I didn't in all of my ENGLISH classes! This sounds bizarre, I know, but learning two completely foreign languages allowed me to understand HOW language skills are acquired.

After those experiences, I came to love studying and learning... Read More

Business

I have a degree in Economics from American University, including a minor in Finance from the Kogod School of Business.

I've been a sitting member on American University's... Read More

Public Speaking

Public speaking isn't easy. It's actually quite rare to find someone for whom public speaking comes completely naturally.

What you may not know is that public speaking is a skill which can be greatly improved-upon in people who might otherwise shudder at the thought of having to stand in front of a crowd.

Using a few simple rules (no, I'm not going to tell you to imagine the audience as fish or a crowd of naked people) I will show you how deliver an effective message to practitioners... Read More
