Christine Z. from Naperville, IL We had Michael as my son's math tutor for almost 6 months now. My son is in his sophomore year in high school. He has been struggling with math and his math grade has been gradually declined. After few sessions with Michael, my son?s math grade started to come back up. As the school end, he had a grade A on math. Michael is always on time, never miss a session. We are very happy with him and will have him again after summer.

Sarah W. from Naperville, IL Our son needed extra help to get ready for Calculus BC test. We were fortunate to have found Mike who is not only knowledgeable in the subject matter, but also an outstanding teacher with passion for math. If our son ever needed extra help again in the future, we would contact Mike without any hesitation.

Jodi L. from Woodridge, IL Appreciate that you were on time even though we were running late due to traffic from 9/11 ceremony! My son felt like he got some valuable one-on-one information!

Sandy K. from Naperville, IL My son has been working with Mike for several months now and has shown a great improvement in several subjects thanks to Mike. He started out just getting help in Spanish but then asked for help with chemistry and geometry when he was struggling. It is so great that Mike is knowledgeable in all these subjects and can help my son in whatever he happens to need the most help with at the time. My son looks forward to meeting with Mike because of the way he explains things and makes it so much easier to understand. Finding Mike is one of the best things I have done for my son.

Cassie C. from Naperville, IL Michael was an amazing tutor for my freshman son who fell behind in Honors Geometry due to a surgery and many missed school days. Mike bent over backwards to accommodate our ever changing schedule. He was prompt and knowledgeable and my son was very comfortable learning from him. Awesome instructor and very successful in his teaching methods! Will definitely keep Michael on our "speed dial." Thank you Michael!!

Justine M. from Wheaton, IL Michael has done a great job with our son. After a few lessons he was able to go from a failing grade to an 88% on his final. He is off to a great start and has maintained an A this semester while continuing to work with Michael. We have now started using Michael for pre-calculus as well due to the positive outcome. Best of all, there have been no complaints about having to go to tutoring sessions.

Greg D. from Bolingbrook, IL Plain and simple. Mike makes a huge difference. I know parents are looking for answers as they seek to get their child help in their studies and if you are lucky enough to read this and get Mike as your tutor it will be to both you and your child?s advantage. What I can tell you is that sometimes you need to let more qualified individuals do what they do best , do you really want to try and explain things you learned years ago, and how much do we really remember? We can sometimes do more damage than good. Take it from someone who knows. You will find Mike to be extremely patient and he works great with my son. What started out as only being a once in awhile sessions with my son, he now wants to meet weekly with Mike as he explains things so well and ?takes the pressure off him? and as expected it has made life at home much more pleasant and he is doing well in his class. As always it?s up to the student as well to put forth the effort to learn but if you have the choice to get help from Mike and stop the frustration that both you and your child are feeling you really need to reach out and get his assistance. You will not be sorry. I wish you the best in your search and hope you find either Mike or another Tutor to assist you to get your child the assistance they need.

He helped my daughter in Algebra II and she said he was very patient and explained things in a way that made the material easy to understand.
