About Gregory

Hello!

I'm excited to help you improve your writing, textual analysis, research, and study skills, whether for AP, SAT, high school, or college-level work. I have a Bachelor's in Philosophy and English, with additional studies in History, Social Sciences, and Theology. My background has given me extensive experience in reading, writing, and analyzing complex ideas across the humanities.

Throughout college, I wrote on topics such as metaphysics, epistemology, political theory, and Western and Eastern civilizations. I studied major literary authors including Shakespeare, Charlotte Brontë, and Charles Dickens, enhancing my ability to analyze literature and communicate ideas clearly.

As a tutor, I focus on helping students become more confident and precise in their writing and thinking. I can help you with essay structure, research skills, reading comprehension, and SAT and AP exam preparation.

I have three years of experience teaching logic to middle and high school students, and I have also worked with college students, from freshman to senior, on writing and philosophy.

My goal is simple: to help you understand difficult material and express your ideas with clarity and confidence. I aim to make each session practical, focused, and productive.

My approach centers on the Socratic Method, encouraging students to think critically, question their assumptions, and explore ideas with wonder. I guide them to discover answers on their own through targeted questions, fostering deeper understanding. My method combines a flexible, freestyle approach that adapts to the unique needs and learning styles of each student.

When working on papers, I follow a structured yet adaptable plan tailored to the assignment. It starts with discussing the structure of the paper, whether it's a 5-paragraph essay, persuasive essay, or research paper, and the importance of outlining for organizing ideas effectively. Afterward, I help students define the focus of their paper: formulating a research question for research papers, defining a clear argument for persuasive essays, or choosing a focused topic. From there, we craft a strong thesis statement that serves as the foundation for the essay.

I also teach students how to conduct research, emphasizing how to identify credible scholarly sources, evaluate them, and cite them properly. Inspired by Mortimer Adler’s "How to Read a Book", I show them how to read critically and take effective notes to strengthen their arguments. We then focus on proper citation (MLA, Chicago, or Turabian) to ensure sources are properly credited and plagiarism is avoided.

We continue with the first draft, where I encourage students to focus on expression rather than perfection. We then move into revision, strengthening arguments and refining clarity and structure. Finally, we focus on proofreading, paying attention to grammar, style, tone, and readability, and finish with final edits to ensure the paper is coherent, consistent, and polished.

This method works anywhere from middle school to college. The depth and rigor are simply calibrated based on the level of the student.
