Hi everyone! I'm Ben, the founder of BMG Tutors, where we offer affordable tutoring services tailored to students and adults of all ages. With thousands of hours of tutoring experience, I am committed to providing expert private tutoring to help each learner succeed.
I hold a bachelor's degree in history and political science, along with a master's degree in government and politics. My tutoring expertise spans middle school, high school, college, and graduate students, and I specialize in AP US History and AP US Government. Additionally, I review, proofread, and provide prompt feedback on writing in any form, ensuring my students excel in their assignments.
I also work with professionals seeking to improve their writing skills. If your writing is holding you back at work, I can help! I offer online tutoring sessions for those looking to enhance the quality of their professional correspondence, including emails, memos, and reports. I frequently collaborate with students for whom English is not their first language, making our virtual private tutor sessions highly effective.
During graduate school, I focused on American politics. In 2013, I began tutoring undergraduates in history and political science, and two years later, I started teaching at the college level. As a graduate student, I led weekly discussion sections, grading and providing feedback on exams, term papers, and other assignments.
For three semesters, I taught US Congress to upperclassmen and have covered political theory, pre-law, and introductory courses in American government. My academic background includes extensive coursework on interest groups, social movements, congressional lobbying, campaign advertising, voter behavior, and federal institutions.
I truly enjoy working with students and thrive in scholastic settings. The exposure to diverse perspectives is intellectually stimulating, and I love formulating and articulating complex ideas. The challenge of reconciling seemingly divergent viewpoints and traditions is incredibly rewarding.
Ben has been an amazing resource for college application preparation throughout my entire process so far. His support as a virtual private tutor has made a significant difference; he is always quick to respond to any messages I send and provides thoughtful answers to my questions. His work ethic is among the best I have encountered. He efficiently manages all of my essays and offers the best feedback, along with insightful questions that help me identify what I am missing. I highly recommend his affordable tutoring services to anyone who has trouble or questions regarding their essays.

Ben has been invaluable as I navigate my law school admissions process. He has helped me write fantastic personal statements for UCLA and Stanford, and I plan to continue working with him throughout the rest of my application process, which is part of my college application preparation.
I enjoy working with Ben! He offers lots of helpful comments and suggestions on my documents, ensuring that I always adhere to instructions that I might otherwise forget. Not only is he a great editor, allowing me to retain my own voice and ideas, but he’s also played a significant role in helping me shape my stories. He talks me through how I can connect my past experiences to my law school aspirations in an authentic way.
Ben's one of the few tutors that provide affordable tutoring services and has been 100% responsive and consistent. He's able to accommodate my short timelines, sometimes even staying up late into the night to help me make revisions and has never left me hanging! I highly recommend Ben as an expert private tutor to anyone looking for writing support or assistance with the application process, whether through online tutoring or as a virtual private tutor!

Ben has genuinely been a lifesaver. He’s saved me an incredible amount of time through thoughtful, insightful feedback that actually moves my work forward. I’ve had tutors in the past who give vague advice or quickly concede to my opinions, but Ben is completely different—he knows exactly what he’s talking about. Even when he doesn’t immediately have an answer, we’re able to piece things together in a way that’s clear, logical, and productive.
He’s also incredibly patient and never makes me feel dumb. Before our sessions, I would spiral and genuinely felt like a bad writer, but even though I initially came to him for help with political science coursework, he’s improved my writing skills overall in a way that’s stuck. I honestly don’t think I could have earned the As that I have without him. He’s an excellent writer himself, and I really appreciate the care and depth he puts into his written feedback—it makes a huge difference.
If you're looking for affordable tutoring services, I highly recommend Ben as an expert private tutor. He has not only assisted me with College Application Preparation but has also enhanced my overall writing abilities through online tutoring. His support as a virtual private tutor has been invaluable.
