Grade Success

As an English teacher for more than 30 years and camp administrator and consultant for almost as long, Marc has come to realize that children today need to learn how to deal with the often unexpected struggles in their lives.. I wrote my memoir to help teens and their parents navigate through myriad issues that often confront them when they least expect it. Bullying, drug use, depression, and teen suicide have touched the lives of far too many young people; it’s important for them to see that there are ways to avoid the negative outcomes that some have experienced. My novel received a Five Star Review from Reader’s Favorite Review and Honorable Mention in the New England and Southwestern Book Festivals as well as Runner Up in the New York Book Festival. In my years in education, tutoring, and camp consulting, I was voted into Who’s Who in American Teachers and have been a featured speaker at the Young Adult Institute (YAI) Conference in New York City, the New York State and New Jersey Reading Conferences, the Tristate Camping Conference in New York and New Jersey, and The Canada Camping Conference. As the owner of Grade Success Tutoring for over twenty years, I have helped many of my clients work through much more than just tests and academics. I have helped with a large amount of personal, physical, and emotional difficulties. Many of my articles have been featured in newspapers, parent and camp magazines, and more. It is my hope to help people reach their full potential.
