I am very happy with our experience so far with 51Թ. They matched my daughter with reading specialist Mary and she is wonderful! My 10 year old daughter feels happy after her sessions and believes her tutor has already helped her.

Michael

Certified Tutor


I hold a B.A. with high distinction in History (minor in English) from the University of Virginia and an M.A. in History from Rutgers University. As a college and university professor for the past 17 years, I have taught hundreds upon hundreds of students in a variety of settings physically in the classroom, hybrid, and online synchronous. In addition to having taught numerous United States, African American, Western, and World History courses, I have also taught College Composition and College Success. I also have previous tutoring experience, including adult literacy tutoring with Literacy Volunteers of America. I tutor a wide variety of subjects, including History, English, Reading, standardized test prep, and Student Success, but probably my favorite tasks as a tutor are helping students in History, English, and other humanities fields work on essays and other writing projects. I pursue creative writing in my spare time.
