Great tutor!
Michael was an amazing tutor. I was terrified of statistics and had zero understanding of it. I had to learn an entire book in 8 short weeks! Thanks to Michael's patience and great teaching skills, I completed the class with an A. I highly recommend him as a tutor!

Amazing tutor!
Getting my masters in analytics- Michael helped me with my statistics courses and coding in R. He was extremely quick to know what I had done wrong and could guide me to the right answer. Extremely bright, very friendly and conscientious of your time/money. I can’t recommend him enough.

C to an A
Mike is a phenomenal tutor for teens. More than mental capacity, teens have to commit to this themselves. My son went from a C to an A within two tests after working with Mike. He has done a phenomenal job teaching and mentoring my son.

Excellent
Excellent! Very knowledgeable. He helped me understand the steps to complete my end-of-year high school statistics math project. I would definitely recommend him if you need help with probability/statistics.

Precalculus/ vector test prep
This was an extensive review over the unit for a test for my son and it went very well leaving him confident and prepared for the test. So far all of the lessons have been very helpful and more than we could have asked for. Very grateful.

A Very Knowledgeable & Personable Math Tutor
Michael quickly helped my child get a better understanding of concepts for his IB Math 3/4 class. Things such as rates, derivatives, and optimization were explained in a manor that made sense. With a calm demeanor and ability to quickly assess what's needed, I'm glad I chose Micheal as our tutor. I will definitely use again.

Learned a lot
First class made me hopeful. Our daughter thought she learned more in the first meeting than all semester thus far. Good start. Long way to go! Thanks

Positive, patient and knowledgeable
I asked Amanda how she would rate her last tutoring session and she said 5 stars! Michael is a very knowledgeable tutor and explains things in a way students can understand. He is also very personable and positive which is important when kids do not understand something.
