Political Science major with high level D.C. experience.

Matthew D.

I'm a Political Science graduate with experience working with students, tutoring and work experience in the highest levels of U.S. government and politics. I'd love to help you or your child excel in a subject I'm very passionate and deeply knowledgeable about and I'm confident I'd be your ideal tutor.

My job in college was working with the international students that came to the English Language Institute at Salisbury from all over the world. I have a lot of experience working with students trying to master all the nuances of the English language coming at it from every perspective you can imagine. Working in D.C. I had to write in every context there is, from quick memos all the way up to drafting federal legislation, so I'm confident I can help.

I have a degree in Political Science and have experience working in politics in Washington D.C. I worked in the government affairs (lobbying) department of a powerful and influential trade organization on a wide variety of policy issues. I was responsible for everything from tracking rule changes through the regulatory process to representing our organization in meetings with members of Congress. This involved detailed familiarity and experience with the legislative and administrative processes and the roles of each branch of government, as we were involved in advocating for legislation, administrative action and even a few lawsuits.

I'm looking forward to being able to spark an interest, cultivate an existing passion or even just to help make sense of any and all things political science, government and civics. I hope I can offer a unique perspective having been on both the academic and practical sides of the field. I hope to hear from you soon!
