Hi, I’m Michael. I earned my BS in Biochemistry from the University of Rochester and my PhD in Biochemistry from the University of Pennsylvania, and I’ve been tutoring for over a decade. I specialize in AP Chemistry, AP Biology, math, SAT prep, essay writing, and college admissions support. Over the years, I’ve helped students significantly improve their GPAs and supported 15 students in gaining admission to Ivy League schools. I’ve also worked in admissions at the University of Pennsylvania, giving me firsthand insight into what selective institutions look for in applicants.
In addition to tutoring, I’ve served as a teaching assistant in biology, general chemistry, organic chemistry, and biochemistry, and have mentored more than 10 students across undergraduate and PhD programs. My approach is patient, structured, and highly individualized. I focus on building strong fundamentals and clear problem-solving habits while adapting to each student’s learning style and goals. Whether you’re aiming to raise your grades, boost your test scores, or strengthen your college application, I work to build both confidence and mastery that lasts well beyond a single exam.
