About Michael
Hi, I'm Mike Davidson. With over 25 years of math tutoring experience, I have helped countless students achieve their academic as well as personal goals. My primary focus is on increasing CONFIDENCE in math alongside building essential skills.
I've been tutoring K-12, college, and working adults in math for over 25 years. I also have a great deal of experience providing standardized test preparation for the ACT, SAT, GED, GMAT, GRE, ASVAB, and CBEST
In addition to tutoring neurotypical students, I have a strong track record of successfully supporting neurodivergent and gifted students. Having been a gifted student myself, I have a first-hand understanding of how high-ability learners process information. My experience includes supporting those with ADHD, mild autism, dyscalculia, and Down syndrome, as well as high-ability learners. While I don't have formal training in these specific areas, my patient, adaptable, and personalized approach has proven highly effective for diverse learning needs.
I hold a degree in Electrical & Computer Engineering from the University of Michigan, and an MBA from Pepperdine University.
I'm a certified educator with CBEST ID #(concealed information) (Permanent Passing Status Verification).
When I'm not teaching math, I enjoy international travel to exotic, far away places, photography, yoga, contemporary jazz, and rock.
I was very good in math, so when I was in 6th grade, my mom asked me if I was willing to tutor her friend's daughter who was struggling in 2nd grade math. I discovered that it gave me a great deal of satisfaction to help her improve in math.

I work with students in kindergarten, grades 1-12, college students, and working adults including those in the military.
In addition to working with a wide range of so-called "normal" students, I have extensive experience working with students that have mild autism (Asperger's), ADHD, and other learning disabilities. I also work with gifted students.
I provide standardized test preparation services for the following standardized tests: ACT, SAT, GED, GMAT, GRE, ASVAB, CBEST, and a variety math placement tests.

Perfect! As a mathematician, I know and appreciate a personalized approach to learning mathematics. We hired Mike to help us augment our efforts as well as go beyond what our son is learning in school (1st grade). Our goal is to help our son learn and love mathematics and explore its wonders beyond the unfortunate school curriculums.
Mike's experience in tutoring and knowledge of mathematics has been compelling. He is also very patient and has lots of tricks up his sleeve in order to ensure a personalized learning experience.
I recommend him to anyone who not only wants their kid to improve on what they are required to learn at school (which is a lot of the boring stuff) as well as get introduced to things that can really get them to engage the subject.Perfect! Thoroughly explained everything!
Perfect! Son loved him!!!
Perfect! Teaches different methods and allows the student to pick what they like most.
Perfect! Michael was great with my son who has ADHD and he had many ideas on which way to attack the problem. My sons test is on Tuesday and we have worked with Michael on Saturday and Sunday and my son said “he is amazing”. I do t think I’ve ever heard those words
Out of his mouth. So grateful to have found such an experience mature teacher to help us. I’m sure we will use him for years to come.Perfect! Michael helped my daughter review for a math 7 accelerated placement final. She did not pass the first time but was able to retake it and with Michael's help she passed it the second time. Michael was very patient and explained things in simple terms that my daughter could understand. We will definitely be using him again if she needs any further help in math!
Perfect! I really enjoyed my time with Mike since he was able to help me work through my Pre-Calc problems showing me every step of the way and making sure I didn't fall off at any point. Nice and personable guy too!
Perfect! Fast, easy and reliable,

Mike has been wonderful in helping my high school daughter improve her grades and preparation in her honors Alg2/Trig class. She is much more confident in math and optimistic about her math journey ahead. Mike has also helped her make decisions about appropriate math pathways as she plans her high school schedule for next year. We are thankful to have found him!
Mike is so very patient with my son and takes the time to explain things in a way he can comprehend. Mike also gives him tips to use in class that will help him remember formulas etc. that are very helpful. I'd recommend him as a math tutor hands down.
Mike is fantastic! I can't even begin to explain how much he helped me in just one session. After the first session, I booked him for the day before my next 3 big college algebra exams. He really is a pro and a total chiller too. I would suggest Mike in a second to anyone having issues with math. Thanks Mike, you're a real dude!
Mike was a pleasure to work with as I prepared for my college Algebra final. I am a returning college student and a bit rusty in my math skills.
So, I needed a tutor to help me get back on track. Mike was the perfect fit for me. He is always punctual, and ready to get to work. He made me feel confident in my math skills and taught me in a way that was clear, and easy to understand. Thank You, Mike!Excellent tutor! Mike is calm with my daughter, non-judgmental, great at explaining concepts that the teacher was not able to do, has helped my daughter improve her grades substantially and very quickly, and given her confidence in math that she never had before.

Details
I like to keep things simple, so it's just pay-as-you-go by cash, check, PayPal, Venmo, or Zelle. I don't make anyone purchase a package of tutoring sessions.
I charge by the hour for a minimum of 1 hour per session. Typically, a session lasts for 1 hour. The per hour charge varies based on subject and how far I have to travel.
