About Michael


Bio

Having been a corporate trainer and teacher for many years, I've consistently seen how valuable personalized, one-on-one support can be for my students. I've spent many hours working individually with students and co-workers improving their skills in Excel, Power Query and Access.

Having been a corporate trainer and teacher for many years, I've consistently seen how valuable personalized, one-on-one support can be for my students. I've spent many hours working individually with students and co-workers improving their skills in Excel, Power Query and Access.

For Power BI, I can help with changing flat file data to multiple tables, automating imports, data cleanup and database design elements (Primary/Foreign keys and relationships). I can't help you with DAX formulas or Dashboard design beyond a basic Dashboard.

My aim as a tutor is to boost my student's confidence and provide the skills they need in a short time. I enjoy working with students of all ages and abilities. I can help you meet your learning goals, whether they involve passing a class, improving your skills on the job, or learning just for the sake of learning. Working together, you will succeed! I know this is your goal, and mine also.

Knowledgeable & patient - highly recommend!!!!

Michael provided clear, concise assistance in the sessions I booked with him, AND I learned many new "tricks" on how to create a great slide deck! Thank you, Michael!

Very Patient Tutor

Michael is helping me in real time with direct questions and helping to Stef them my basic knowledge. Much better than sifting through free YouTube’s. It’s just what I needed.

Eydie , 1 lesson with Michael

Extremely patient and friendly

Looked at the project, helped to create a to-do list and began working on it with me. I am looking forward to our next session. Great job. Ended up working in google sheets instead of excel and he adapted beautifully

Nicole, 1 lesson with Michael

Knowledgeable and versatile tutor

I work on a MAC and need a proficient and engaging tutor who can help me to upgrade my skills in Microsoft office products. Michael is that tutor. He was even kind enough to suggest some links that would enable me to reinforce the knowledge that I had gained using PPT. We are scheduled for our next lesson. After Microsoft 365, I want to learn G mail suite. Even though it is not a great service, large companies are using it. Michael is the man for the job. Even though he is a mathematical whiz and has worked on impressive xcel presentations, he has the ability to work with people at earlier stages. Thank you, Michael

Joy, 1 lesson with Michael

Quick response, directly answered my questions!

Wonderful, fast response time; was able to help me figure out what direction to take consolidating complicated spreadsheets I inherited from an ex-employee.

Linda, 1 lesson with Michael

Michael was very knowledgeable, friendly which was comforting

Michael helped with building a report that I've been using for a while, but had issues with the tracking of data. He took his time to explain everything in a very smooth pace and boom, the nervousness I had with not being to get the spreadsheet up to par was gone. He made sure I understood everything that mattered and gave me the confidence that put me back on track. Thank you very much Michael, you were awesome

Just what I needed!

I used Michael to help with an Excel Spreadsheet that no longer worked right. He got it working and we used the extra time on general Excel shortcuts which was perfect.

Knowledgeable - Great Tutor

This was only our first session however, I feel I received a lot of great information from Michael. I plan on setting up additional sessions so I can continue to improve my excel skills.

Excel training

Michael helped with my current project by coaching me on specific excel functionality. I learned a lot just from two sessions we had. He's super patient and provides clear, to the point instructions. He suggested other resources available to expand on what he taught me. I made the best decision to use this site and I'm happy to recommend Michael to anyone in need of excel help, basic or advanced.
