About Michael


Bio

I am a recent undergraduate of CUNY City College of New York majoring in Standard Physics in Macaulay Honors College where I have received a full scholarship based on my academic performance in High School. I have a love of physics and mathematics and a desire to teach others the joy of understanding these subjects. I was a student at KUMON as an elementary student and worked at a KUMON facility in Westchester during 2018 for a while.

I am a recent undergraduate of CUNY City College of New York majoring in Standard Physics in Macaulay Honors College where I have received a full scholarship based on my academic performance in High School. I have a love of physics and mathematics and a desire to teach others the joy of understanding these subjects. I was a student at KUMON as an elementary student and worked at a KUMON facility in Westchester during 2018 for a while.

Tutoring, or rather teaching, is an important part of the education process. My teachers have always said that when you can teach another person a concept that means you truly understand it. By helping others I hope to sharpen my own skills and work. Furthermore, helping another student understand a subject is a very fulfilling feeling that I would like to experience again.

I completed Algebra before 5th grade outside of school in KUMON. I have completed the required math classes for my degree which ended with Linear Algebra, Differential Equations, and Vector Calculus.

I am currently a physics major. I have completed the 3 intro-university level physics classes that included Mechanics, Thermodynamics, Electricity & Magnetism, Optics, and Modern.

I look forward to working with you and learning more together.

Great Tutor

I was having significant trouble with my calculus class this summer and Michael was able to turn that around for me. From our first meeting, he showed a passion and desire to help me understand calculus. I have never had good mathematics skills, but Michael was very patient and able to simplify even some of the most difficult topics in my course. Michael was always willing to be flexible and work with me at very convenient time. I would recommend him as a tutor for everyone seeking help in mathematics.

Knowledgeable & patient

Michael was helping me learn general physics. He was understanding & really took his time to teach me the fundamentals of each topic. Great tutor! I will definitely use him as a tutor again.

Professional, knowledgeable, and helpful

My daughter has worked with Michael twice and in both instances, he was very helpful with explaining and teaching concepts she has missed due to an illness. We will definitely work with Michael again.

Great tutor

Math for 5th and 6th grade boys. He was very patient and did a good job. We will be using him more often. I would give him five stars. He is a great tutor for boys who don't like to do extra work!
