I have a Ph.D. in Urban and Public Affairs from the University of Louisville.
I am a Full Professor of Political Science at the University of Southern Indiana.
I'm an accomplished scholar and author where my research informs my teaching.
My research interests are city politics, housing, and community development.
I have taught over 20 different courses at the undergraduate level.
I believe that we best learn when we do, so we will apply what we learn.
I have worked in government and the public sector, and I bring my experience to our lessons.
I can teach students from high school to graduate students.
Recommendations
Recommendations are written by the tutor's friends, family, and acquaintances.
Matt was recommended to me by a friend when I was trying to pass a very intensive three week summer statistics course. Not my strongest subject. I had never done virtual tutoring but Matt made it super easy and helped explain and demonstrate problems and concepts. I ended up with the impossible: an A+ in the class! Put in your work and Matt will help you, easy. He was also available at some later hours (I worked in a restaurant and typically needed very early or very late at that time), and flexible with scheduling.
