Michael: Yorkville tutor

Certified Tutor

I am a graduate of the University of California, Los Angeles, where I earned a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science. I've always loved Math and the Sciences: the hunt for the right equation to use, the unravelling of the mystery of the value of x. I want to show my students to see these subjects as I do: as a challenge, not a chore. I try to do this by making things simple and showing straightforward techniques that students can use on their own to sidestep mental walls, thus building confidence. I love to see them succeed academically and value the opportunity to be a part of that success.

I tutor Mathematics, Physics, SAT Prep and, my favorite, Computer Science. I have experience putting Computer Science to use both in the classroom and in the software industry, years of exposure to Physics and Mathematics in the classroom, and my own experience preparing for the SAT to draw on. My grasp of these subjects is strong, and I am confident in my ability to share that understanding with my students.
