About Mike

Unlocking a student's unique potential through personalized support is the cornerstone of my teaching practice. With 11 years of experience as a Certified teacher, I specialize in helping Middle School, High School, and adult students master mathematics. I believe math offers many paths to a solution, and I enjoy teaching the critical thinking skills that serve as a foundation for a lifetime of success. I break complex problems into manageable steps and celebrating every "aha!" moment, I keep students motivated and confident. I prioritize clear, consistent communication with both students and parents to foster a collaborative environment. Whether we meet at your home, a library, or a local center, I look forward to helping you reach your academic goals. I was a football coach at Middle school & HS level. I tutored math when in HS. I have 2 Masters degrees. I taught prison inmates how to pass the GED for 4 years. Set prison records for 3 of them. My 2nd Masters is from Seminary.
