It doesn’t get any better than Michael for Calculus and Statistics classes. Michael has tutored me for 3 semesters (Calculus I and Statistics I and II. If only I found him earlier my first semester, I would have all As.

Alex, 40 lessons with Michael

Michael was extremely helpful making complicated problems easier by explaining underlying concepts. He shared effective strategies and provided good structure to tackle all types of problems that may show up. Would highly recommend if you are looking to achieve a top quant score!

Ryan, 6 lessons with Michael

I worked with him for my GRE and he boosted my score up 20 points. He was so articulate and really knew how to break down concepts. Would refer him to every person I know.

Jordana, 15 lessons with Michael

My son needs to work on improving his SSAT score and Michael wasn't able to help with his verbal/English sections but spent an hour working diligently on math. My son felt very good after his session and said Michael explained things very well and was incredibly helpful.

Blake, 1 lesson with Michael

My daughter got her AP result back and she got a 5. Michael really helped her get to that level.

Virender, 5 lessons with Michael

Michael was an outstanding tutor who helped me master statistics, specifically applied multivariate analytics. I started the course feeling incredibly anxious, but with his guidance, I gained confidence and ultimately excelled and became one of the top students in the class. I can confidently say I would never have passed this class without his support. Michael’s teaching style is both clear and patient; he explains complex topics directly and breaks them down in a way that’s easy to understand. Whenever I struggled with a concept, he quickly adapted his approach to ensure I grasped it. I highly recommend Michael to anyone looking for expert support in advanced statistics.

Zach, 4 lessons with Michael

Michael was instrumental in my understanding of Complex Analysis this semester. He was able to help me in multiple areas from talking over concepts, reviewing homework, and reading over essays. I highly recommend him for anyone looking for a second source in Mathematics.

Josh, 16 lessons with Michael

We had such a great experience with Michael! My son really connected with him and actually enjoyed the ACT math sessions, which is saying a lot. He was super patient, explained things clearly, and made sure my son truly understood the material instead of just memorizing steps. There was a noticeable difference in both his confidence and his improvement. He was also very reliable and easy to communicate with. Highly recommend if you're looking for someone who knows their stuff and genuinely cares about helping kids succeed.

Michael G. is an outstanding tutor for my high school-aged son, helping and motivating him to navigate complex concepts. He does this with patience and a true passion for always being available to help.

Maggie, 38 lessons with Michael

Michael has been an amazing college-level mathematical statistics tutor. He's not only a master of the content, but excellent at breaking down the steps and explaining the content in an accessible manner. He's patient, kind, and an excellent teacher. I'd highly recommend him for any and all statistics courses you have!

Anonymous, 5 lessons with Michael

Michael G helped my 8th grader with SSAT test prep. Not only is he extremely knowledgeable, he has a gift for teaching the subject matter so that my kid gets it. He assures that he addresses whatever you need help with (he will inquire in detail what would help the most), which makes the session very effective. He works well with teenagers (which is a gift as well). He helped my daughter significantly increase her math SSAT scores with a few sessions. 5 stars

Will P. , 66 lessons with Michael

My son said Michael is literally the best tutor! Helped him understand Algebra 1 concepts easily. Booking a lesson with Michael was extremely easy. We will definitely book additional sessions!

Kelly, 3 lessons with Michael

GRE prep. He is so confident, patient and understands the thought process. He makes it seem easy and approaches the problems with such deep knowledge. We are very satisfied to say the least.

Dr. Rajita, 4 lessons with Michael

Micheal came through at the last minute and was extremely knowledgeable about the materials. Was also professional. Worth every penny. Highly recommended Best tutor I had.

Chrys, 7 lessons with Michael

Michael does a good job in asking me questions and making sure I understand. He goes through problems step by step to make sure I know how to get the correct answer. He was also very flexible with meeting times.

Mia, 4 lessons with Michael

He is helping me study for an important exam. Michael is patient and able to laser focus in on the key elements that I need. He has been a huge help. Thank you Michael.

Jennifer, 4 lessons with Michael

My daughter has been working with Michael and she is becoming more comfortable with the material. Lots of “Aha!” moments and she feels more confident after each session! Thank you Michael!

Annette, 6 lessons with Michael

Michael was very patient when trying to get together. Initially there were a lot of technicals issue our first day which caused us to have to reschedule. The following day we went over my practice test and through Michael’s guidance I began to realize the silly errors I had made. He stresses the importance of honing in on the details of solving problems. These are the score killers. Looking forward to the homework and eclipsing that 160 mark in quant.

G, 2 lessons with Michael

I was hesitant about getting a private tutor when I first started preparing for the GRE but was immediately pleased with my decision after my first session with Michael. I needed someone who was very strong in math but also genuinely enjoys the subject. Michael has been able to help me learn multiple methods for solving even the most difficult math problems, walking me through them until I feel I know them like the back of my hand. He's also been helpful in developing my long term study plan and short term homework assignments, something that was key in my tutor selection. Couldn't recommend him more.

Alyss, 8 lessons with Michael

Michael was great: friendly, patient, and excellent at explaining concepts in Statistics. My son found the one-hour session very helpful, and said that Michael explained the material more clearly than my son's teacher at his private school had explained it. Michael worked with my son to prepare for two upcoming tests, and now my son feels much more comfortable with the material. In addition, Micahel came to our home on the day after I contacted him. That was important because my son felt an urgency here. Michael responds immediately to e-mails and couldn't be nicer in all his communications. I can't offer enough compliments to Michael. Thank you to Michael!

Emily, 1 lesson with Michael

Michael is an amazing tutor who works with you thoroughly to make sure the lesson is understood. His response time is fast and is open to answering any questions or concerns. I 100% recommend him for your next tutoring session

Gary, 9 lessons with Michael

Michael helped me prep for a Statistics test that I was completely lost on in a week and a half. His patience and willingness to explain what were probably menial concepts were immensely helpful. Would absolutely recommend.

Robert, 6 lessons with Michael

Michael helped me wrap my head around some fundamental concepts relating to descriptive statistics, specifically the standard deviation of one draw of a deck of cards. He walked me through the steps and helped me visualize what was going on at each step. His tutoring style is friendly and patient. I would recommend Michael every time.

Charles, 1 lesson with Michael

I'm extremely impressed, Michael has a very fluid understanding of statistics. I've had several statistics tutors, from graduate students to seasoned professors, and at times it's difficult to explain my professor's strange methods, but Michael just seems to grasp things with ease. I've had tutors spend 15 minutes trying to explain me something, that he summarized in a few seconds. Listening and digesting, his explanations feels very natural, and the information is not too overwhelming.
