About Michael
Experience: 8 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
Hello! I am an Orton-Gillingham certified reading tutor. I am a licensed and practicing early childhood educator. I presently teach English as a Second Language at a progressive elementary school in Manhattan. I have 8 years of experience teaching preschool to 3rd grade. I am proud to hold a certification as an Orton-Gillingham reading and writing tutor. This renowned methodology has proven incredibly effective in helping children with dyslexia develop their reading and writing skills. Moreover, the intensive nature of the Orton-Gillingham approach benefits all students. I also teach writing composition to early writers using a blend of The Writing Revolution metohodolody and a self-developed approach to composition instruction. In addition t reading and writing, I tutor early childhood mathematics using the Singapore Mathematics curriculum as a framework for my instruction.

Michael is a phenomenal English tutor. He is professional, punctual, kind and intuitive. He helped my son not only make huge progress in his reading skills (we are a French family living in NY) but he also made learning fun, keeping my son engaged, focused and confident by adapting to his specific learning style. My son used to shy away from English language books but now he can’t wait for trips to the library. I hope to hire Michael again very soon, we miss him in the meantime. Strongly recommend!
