I have tutored ADD/ADHD students in literacy (including reading, writing, vocabulary, grammar and spelling) at the Literacy Center of the University of New Mexico located in Taos, NM. I have also worked with young children diagnosed with ADD/ADHD, both when they were medicated and when they were not. Many of my students achieved significant progress with my help.

I hired Michael to help my son pass the CO Law Bar. They've just met once. I heard it was great. They will continue to meet.

He is working with my high school senior, Stephen. Stephen was very comfortable with Michael at their first visit. Stephen is clearly looking forward to the next meeting- tomorrow actually. Stephen recognizes value in these visits and is clearly going to benefit. Michael is very savvy working with my teenage son and he puts my wife and me at ease. I think he is excellent.
