Michael has been an outstanding tutor for both my 13-year-old and 4-year-old children. They possess a wealth of experience in the subject matter and are dedicated to their role as a tutor.
Thanks to Michael's guidance, my 13-year-old has made significant improvements in her writing skills and now feels confident in her public speaking abilities. Michael has been instrumental in helping her overcome shyness and accentuating her strengths. As for my 4-year-old, every moment of learning to read with Michael has been a joy, and we've seen a remarkable expansion of their vocabulary as a result.
I wholeheartedly recommend Michael as a tutor. Their work is truly commendable, and I encourage them to continue their excellent efforts!

I have known and worked with Michael for nearly 15 years. Through their work as a stage manager, they have brought years of experience with script management, competency, and navigating new works to both professional and student actors alike. Their passion for the arts and empathetic approach to literacy education is an asset to all who work with them.

They are a highly skilled, knowledgeable writer and take a very grounded approach to writing and poetry, which to me can be a very intimidating craft! I took a poetry workshop with Crystal (Michael) at a wellness retreat this summer, and I learned so much. It was simple, accessible and I also felt a lightness and connection to my surroundings after working with them. Highly recommend.
