Reviews

I am in my senior year in college and I was looking for a tutor to assist me with reviewing course material in finance before exams and major assignments. It is not easy to find right fit with a tutor but Michael exceeded my expectations. Michael's experience in economics, wealth and investment management was invaluable. His tutoring style in our sessions was a big plus. Michael provides a positive learning environment. If there was a concept or problem I was having an issue with he let me work it out and patiently guided me to understanding the problem. I knew Michael was the right fit just by my midterms and final grades,,a B plus and an A. I am looking forward to reviewing materiel next semester for my SIE exam and other finance courses.

I worked with Michael for 3+ months on a weekly basis and I have nothing but the upmost praise for him. What separates him from other tutors is the amount of effort and interest he goes to make sure the student is successful in whatever exam they are preparing for. Michael was constantly checking in on me to make sure I am on track and always explained any hard topics to me. After successfully passing the Series 7 exam, I will plan to use Michael for my CFA preparation.

Michael and I discussed a number of different topics related to corporate finance and investment banking. I had given Michael a list of items I had wanted to discuss, but as we began, numerous topics popped into my mind and he didn't miss a beat. I appreciate Michael's flexibility.

Michael helped me get prepared for my CFA Level 1 Examination. The most important thing that I learnt from him is the second level thinking that is required in order to pass the exam. With only a few days to go to the test, I feel like I am in a better position pass the exam. I would highly recommend Michael for anyone who is working towards a finance degree or studying for the CFA program. Thank you, Michael!

Fixed income and Econ specialist for those of you needing help in those particular areas. Good at explaining things in depth for grasping solid concepts. Comes right from the industry with great overall advice on what to expect on the exam and how to prepare. His schedule is very flexible.
- Ben S. from New York, NY
Michael is a sharp Finance (for MBA in my case) instructor that teaches you more than the material itself but also teaches you a critical thinking and the big picture of the material. Also Michael uses the time very effectively during the session. Very high standard!

Michael is a great tutor. He is excellent at explaining the concepts in a clear and concise manner I can understand. In addition to learning the material for the test he is also giving me invaluable tips on HOW to take the test. I'm very happy with Michael's tutoring.
