What People Are Saying

 

“Micha’el’s love of learning is contagious. It is impossible to be bored when you are with him—whether it is algebra or annotation, learning vocabulary, or coaching essay writing, he makes the process engaging and fun. His academic foundations are unquestionably solid in every subject; he's super brainy, and yet he is such a great communicator that he makes seemingly difficult subject matter accessible, and helps the student find (want to find, excited to find!) the learning within themselves. Simply spending time with Micha’el makes you feel smarter!”

— Nancy S. (Makawao)

 

“Through the long nights of editing and telephone calls, Mr. Leventhal not only helped me to compose many beautiful essays, but also to discover new aspects of my own beliefs and identity. That’s the thing about Mr. Leventhal: in his eyes, you’re not just another client. As he engages with you in the process of tutoring, he’s simultaneously helping you to become a better human being.”

— Christie K. (Wailea)

“Through his presence, patience and persistence, Micha’el has consistently enabled our son to not only achieve his academic goals, but to actively and consciously engage in his own learning process. Micha’el’s unique set of talents have helped our son discover a newfound confidence in his own ability to excel in academic and personal areas he once found so painfully challenging. On top of everything, Micha’el’s visibly infectious enthusiasm for learning has an invaluable way of transforming ‘teaching to’ into ‘learning with.’”

— Elizabeth C. (Kihei)

 

“With exceptional ease, he is able to hash out a tough sentence and render it a purely elegant and witty statement, all while treating you less as a student than as an individual. By taking the time to get to know you, he finds the perfect mode of expression to help you bring your essence to the surface.”

— Jessie S. (Kula)

 

“From the most basic to the hardest math problems, you've made me feel comfortable and at ease when I couldn't seem to figure something out. Right then and there you broke it down for me to help me understand and to work at my own pace. Your enthusiastic, positive, down-to-earth personality played a big role in our tutoring time together. The passion you show and give towards your teachings is an amazing inspiration.”

— Reychelle L. (Wailuku)

 

"We cannot recommend Eric Micha’el Leventhal more highly. He is far above and beyond any of the several tutors we’ve worked with over the years, and offers excellent value for his high standards and professionalism. And while Micha’el’s teaching improved our daughter’s skill set in every subject, it was his wit and wisdom that saved the day throughout the process of applying (and in the end, successfully gaining acceptance) to highly competitive schools.”

— Kate W. (Kula)

“After each session, his students invariably emerge more capable than they may have ever imagined becoming. With educators like Micha’el guiding their learning process, our children definitely stand to inherit a bigger and brighter world!”

— Mary-Anna E. (Lahaina)

 

“Your areas of knowledge are OUTSTANDING and have helped our grandson in many ways. His grades have been improving on a regular basis, and we find that he looks forward to the time he spends with his tutor. You have opened his eyes to many areas that we as grandparents were not able to do. He responds to you favorably and listens because ‘Micha’el understands and knows how to do it.’”
