About Zachary

Hey there! I'm a 27 year-old philosophy PhD student at Florida State University in Tallahassee, FL. I also have a master's degree in philosophy from Houston Baptist University in Texas, and a Bachelor's degree in philosophy from the University of Tennessee in Knoxville, TN. Philosophy is a discipline with a very strong emphasis on good writing, both technical and creative. Since writing is so important in philosophy, I am able to teach English composition and grammar in addition to a wide range of philsophical topics. 
Philosophy students are known for their stellar performance on standardized tests like the GRE (philosophy majors leave English majors in the dust here!), so I'm well-equipped as a test-prep tutor. Importantly, I have professional experience as a tutor for Academic Coaching Inc. in Houston, TX.  There, I tutored private middle and high school students in ACT/SAT test prep, English literature, and essay writing.
