About Michael
I have spent the past 9 years as an academic ghostwriter in my community. That means I made my living writing "A" grade papers for people at university. I even have a wide network of references who can attest to all of the wonderful writing I have done for them over the years. I can also provide samples.
I am currently a philosophy major at university, working towards my BA. It took me quite a while to go to school for myself, because I was always doing it for everybody else!
Aside from my interests at university, I spend quite a bit of time doing personal research on various matters ranging from (even more) philosophy, to politics and psychology.

Here's a quick free lesson:
-Freshman year introductory courses like microeconomics and intro to psych tend to grade on logical structure and understanding of the material. A clear thesis followed by an explanation of each of the points addressed in said thesis and a coherent conclusion are typically enough to score you in the "A" range. These tend to be very easy papers to write.
-The contrary to these are English and literature classes. These classes tend to grade more on variety of vocabulary, inter-paragraph transitions, voice, and the rhetorical strength of an argument.
-Main lesson: Every time you write a paper, know your audience!
You see, after nearly a decade of writing papers specifically engineered to get an "A", I have learned very many facts about modern academia and academic writing. This has allowed me to create a set of interchangeable writing systems that I use to complete every writing assignment, from freshman year courses all the way to graduate studies. Whichever system I use is dependent on the course and prompt, as I illustrated in my free lesson above.
In our lessons together, we can cover two areas. The first area I like to cover is my system. I find that it has the most immediate impact on students' grades. In these lessons, you can present me any essay you have, and I will explain to you my methods for breaking them down, addressing the key grading points, and writing a targeted paper with the intention of getting an "A". You will be able to use these methods over and over again on future papers, without my help.
The second area we can cover is technical and creative aspects, such as vocabulary building, rhetorical argument, and voice. These lessons are for more advanced writers, who are perhaps planning on majoring in writing or are going on to graduate studies.
