Hi, I'm Michael! I graduated with a BA in Mathematics, with minors in Computer Science and Physics. I think math is a really rich and interesting subject, and although it has a reputation for being confusing and complicated, I believe it doesn't have to be that way! I enjoy teaching students by explaining concepts in intuitive and interesting ways that simplify rather than complicate. I also like to give students practice on a variety of problems, which is essential to learning. I have pre... Read more

Dear prospective students, More than a few years ago, I tutored independently for the first time since I was a student at Wilton High School. The tutoring sessions were a success. One client was eager to meet on a weekly basis to review topics such as the preterite tense, imperfect tense, subjunctive tense and the difference between por and para, among others. We worked together until she understood the various topics and it worked out extremely well. My passion for the Spanish language... Read more
