About Michael
I recently moved to London from New York City where I taught at Brooklyn Heights Montessori School for 11 years, and I have been teaching since 2010. I am a trained Montessori teacher and have a master's in mathematics education from Columbia University. Since I was raised in the U.S., I am very familiar with college entrance exams, college essays, and the application process.
Currently, I teach adolescents in London, preparing them for the IGCSE exams in English, literature, mathematics, history, and geography, among other subjects. Having worked with over 100 students for exam preparation, I know I can improve your scores and understanding.

I strive to create a supportive and enthusiastic environment where students feel confident to take risks, learn from mistakes, and grow. My lessons include activities that foster discovery, interaction, and critical thinking. I challenge students to explain and justify their reasoning, placing strong emphasis on verbal communication of all concepts. Throughout each lesson, I use a variety of assessment tools and ongoing questioning strategies to gauge understanding and adapt instruction accordingly.
I have 16 years of teaching experience with the following subjects/exams: SAT, ACT, mathematics, English, literature, U.S. college application guidance. Additionally, I provide all textbooks and materials for standardised test preparation.

Michael is an exceptional tutor! I could not recommend him enough.
We can’t say enough wonderful things about Michael. He worked with our son in a way that was both encouraging and highly effective, and the results truly speak for themselves. From the very beginning, Michael took the time to understand our son’s strengths, weaknesses, and learning style, then tailored each session to target exactly what he needed.
What impressed us most was Michael’s ability to break down complex SAT concepts into clear, manageable steps. He built our son’s confidence alongside his skills, turning areas of frustration into genuine strengths. Over time, we saw a dramatic improvement not only in test scores, but also in our son’s overall understanding of the material and his approach to problem-solving. He also took time to help him with his school essays.
Michael is patient, knowledgeable, and deeply committed to his students’ success. Our son felt supported and motivated throughout the entire process, and he walked into the SAT feeling prepared and confident. We are incredibly grateful for Michael’s guidance and would wholeheartedly recommend him to any family looking for an exceptional tutor.View more recommendations
