Gerard M.

Private tutor in East Quogue, NY

Education

BA, English Literature Mount Saint Vincent University Halifax, Nova Scotia

Experience

Presently tutor autistic young adults in arts & literature; former GED tutor at The Fortune Society, NYC. I am an accomplished freelance writer; now working on several poetry & short story projects. In Canada, we had no SAT system; however, my essay on Secular & Profane Love in Chaucer's The Legend of Good Women was a winner of The Atlantic English Conference prize. My honors thesis was titled Jungian Elements in the Prophetical Works of William Blake. I am both intensely analytical and a warm, patient instructor...a polymath with much knowledge and confidence to share. Tutoring allows me to offer those who feel intimidated or frustrated with the written word to express themselves in structured form, and to understand the satisfaction of effective communication.

Hobbies

I am fun, funny, extremely well-read, a very happy dad, and excel at essay composition, poetry, and short fiction. I am a voracious reader and a prolific writer, although most of my published work has been technical material for manuals and websites, advertising copy, and educational seminar packets. Just a nice guy from a working-class Brooklyn family who was blessed with a facility for words, an ability to disseminate knowledge, and a long history of great teachers that introduced this lifelong student to the riches of art, music, and literature.
