Michael tutored my child in Algebra 2 for over a semester in the Spring of 2020. Michael quickly figured out that my student was missing some fundamentals from the year before. He developed a strategy to learn the missing fundamentals, get caught up, and work on the new material all at once. It worked perfectly. Once they were all caught up and getting A's again, we decided to continue tutoring just for the added depth and 1:1 that you can't get in the classroom. We will be using Michael for tutoring this year for Precalculus to continue getting that math depth and the confidence that came along with it. (Side note: Michael and my son really clicked personality-wise, too. My son really looked forward to his sessions.) I highly recommend him. By the way, my son's tutoring sessions were mask-less (before covid), with a mask (before shelter in place) and via Skype (after shelter in place). All modes worked out just fine. read more

Last year my wife read a review of Michael and decided to have him tutor our 8th grader. We have seen significant improvements over the past year. So much so that we decided to add our other 2 kids. In the short time he has worked with our 6th grader, she is already advancing to Pre-Algebra. Our HS Junior has been prepping for his SATs with Michael since last year. His style of teaching and engagement allows the kids to better understand the material. He is patient, and genuinely cares about his students. We have even recommended him to our friends and family. No doubt he has improved our kids confidence and knowledge in Math. We strongly recommend him if your kids need help or are looking for mastery in mathematics. Keep up the good work Michael. read more

This past year Mike has been tutoring my grandson in geometry and also reviewing for his upcoming SAT this fall. My grandson raised his geometry grade to an A while improving his math confidence tremendously. Previously I was helping my grandson with his homework so was keenly aware of the problem areas and saw the progress he was making. I found Mike to be excellent in explaining new concepts and ways to approach problems. I found him to be an excellent communicator, quickly answering emails and following-up on suggestions. With onset of COVID-19, sessions were conducted online without skipping a beat. I have worked with a number of tutors over the years and would rank Mike at the very top of his class. I recommend him highly. read more

Please do your child a favor and retain Mike for math tutoring He has a gift for teaching and for building a relationship with your child That is important if your son or daughter is to going to put forth maximum effort Mike motivates and does not criticize Kids want to perform for him He truly cares too It's not just a job to him It is a mission for him to have every one of his students succeed and have confidence in the subject matter My son was ill and missed two months of school Prior to missing school he was bombing tests and quizzes in algebra 2 Mike worked with him for three weeks and helped him pass and master the class read more

Mike Rosenthal is an excellent math tutor! As a high school sophomore, my daughter was struggling with Algebra II. We were referred to Mike by a friend. Mike's teaching style helped my daughter understand the concepts, something her high school teacher was not able to do. In fact I've even heard her refer to math as "fun" once or twice!! When she is caught up in understanding the current lesson, Mike will move ahead to the next lesson so it is familiar when they get to the lesson in class. Or he will do SAT prep of math concepts needed for the exam. If you're in need of someone to help translate math, give Mike a call! read more

We chose Mike to teach our 5th grade kid, more so to challenge his skills and improve his math. Mike is amazing, got to my son level, explored his talent, assisted with his short comings, and provides feedback on his strengths and things-to-improve after each class. My son can do high school algebra and geometry; but Mike also reinforces on honing his personality, when to pause, step back in learning to keep one in current state. Overall, Mike has been very helpful and a master in teaching all levels of math. read more

Absolutely thrilled with the results of my son's math tutoring sessions! Michael has been exceptional in every way. He tutored my son in geometry. In addition to their sessions, he was always available by phone whenever my son had questions, providing clear and concise explanations. His dedication didn't just help improve my son's grades; it also significantly boosted his confidence. We are extremely grateful for his support and highly recommend him to anyone seeking a reliable and effective math tutor! read more

Amazing tutor!! Truly cares about each of his students and is very helpful. Anything you need or your child needs Michael will help them figure it out and explain each step of the process in that particular problem . Also, if you aren't able to make it to a tutoring session it's very easy to contact him. For example: I send him pictures of problems I need help on and he'll do them on a paper and explain them to me. Overall an amazing tutor and is affordable!! (Math major. Degree from Cal Berkeley) read more

My son was failing Algebra 1 and we were in the month of February. I wasn't getting help from the teacher so I hired Mike to help my son. Mike spent a lot of time with him working with him to relearn the areas he didn't know. My son gets distracted easily but he listened to Mike. In the end my son got a 90% on his final and passed the class with a C. We are currently using Mike for Geometry. My son says he gets Mike and likes his style. read more

He is a great tutor. His style is different than many other tutors I've had because his lessons are applicable to many different types of math (SAT/ACT, school classes, etc), and each lesson builds of the other. His teaching style is also focused on your needs specifically which helps you learn what you need to work on. I highly recommend him as an SAT tutor or if you want to become more efficient with your current math skills! read more

After a few months of tutoring with Michael I can definitely say I'm miles ahead of where I started in math. He can break very complicated things down and make them easy understand very well, his method of teaching has helped me catch up and even get ahead of my Algebra 2 class in just a few months. We're now working on getting ready for pre-calculus and I'm much more confident going into this class with his help. read more

Mike is an amazing tutor! My daughter Kylie was having struggles with Algebra. I was referred to Mike R from another tutor who was packed. Best referral we ever got...

Thank you so much Master Math Tutor, money well spent read more

Mike has been working with our son for a couples of months. Our son's confidence in Geometry has improved. Mike has also started to work with our son on Algebra 2 and to prepare him for the SAT/ACT. He has taken a real interest in our son's academic/career aspirations and is providing mentoring and support. We highly recommend Mike as a tutor. read more

Michael is kind hearted and pleasant to work with. He took on my son in grade school, even though he usually works with older kids on a much higher level. He kept my son interested in math and made it fun for him. He also showed me how to work with him on my own so I could help get him up to speed. I would definitely recommend him. read more

Mike has been a great help to my high school son with Geometry. He is patient and thorough in his instruction and has helped my son raise his grade in a matter of weeks.

Mike is tutoring my 7th grader for last two months. He explains difficult concepts thoroughly. He is very calm and patient.

Fantastic tutor. Michael is a subject matter expert but more importantly, he knows how to teach. Michael genuinely cares about his students' success both in math and in life. We tried many tutors from the usual places and beyond. While good, none compare favorably to Michael. Grateful parents read more

Mike helped my daughter so much. She started her freshman year always a straight A student. She did not understand Algebra 2 at all and asked me to find her help. I am so lucky to have found Mike! A teacher that knows what's going on in the classroom. After one visit she was ahead of the class! read more
