If Homework Time Has Become a Daily Battle...

You're not alone. When your child dreads homework, avoids reading, or gets frustrated over math problems, it creates stress for the whole family. But here's what I know: every child is capable of understanding their work. They just need the right kind of support.

I work one-on-one with elementary students in grades 1-6 to help them feel confident, capable, and genuinely excited about learning again.

I provide…

Personalized homework & learning support

I meet your child exactly where they are, whether they're struggling with basic concepts or ready to move ahead. The goal isn't just to get through the homework; it's to build real understanding that sticks.

A Focus on Soft Skills

Organization, follow-through, confidence, and positive learning habits matter just as much as academics. These are the skills that carry over into the classroom and beyond.

Patience, Encouragement & Dependability

Your child deserves a tutor who listens, celebrates progress, and creates a safe space to learn. I'm available up to 4x per week and genuinely invested in your child's success.

Support for All Subjects

Reading comprehension, spelling, writing and penmanship, science, and math (including strengthening basic math tables).

My background…

BA in Biology from The University of Chicago

MBA from Pepperdine University

8 years of tutoring across all elementary disciplines

What Parents Are Saying

I highly recommend Michael! My son looks forward to every time he comes and he has a special talent to connect with kids! My 4th grader went from feeling he sucks at math to loving it now. 🙏

Shiva

Michael is very patient and he teaches well. My daughter has learned math skills, learned to read, write neatly, significantly improved in spelling and sentence structure. No other tutor has been able to connect with my daughter and help her the way Michael has done.

Perline

He is patient, kind, and engaging, and has been wonderful at building our nine-year-old's skills and confidence. He has helped form patterns to make math easier and less stressful.

Shadi

My goal is to help your child feel supported, confident, and genuinely proud of their progress, at home and in school.
