How I teach kids with ADHD
I build short breaks into every session, so math feels doable instead of stressful. I encourage a lot, I stay patient, and I keep it playful.
Every session is 1-on-1, built around your kid's course and where it got hard. Your kid works with the same teacher every time.
Understanding, not answers
AI gives answers; a tutor checks the kid understands. That check is my job, every session.
An app can't notice a kid losing focus and take a break. I teach one student at a time, so I can.
What families say

Michael has been an amazing educational influence on our son, not only have we seen improved math grades, but the patient and personalized teaching methods have improved his self esteem and given our son confidence in learning. We wish we would’ve found Mathjitsu sooner!
My daughter asked her teacher if she could use the technique she learned from her tutor because it’s easier for her to understand. Thankfully, the teacher had no problem with it. What I really love is how he’s able to make math make sense. She went from tears to confidence, and it clearly shows in her grades.
Michael is truly a MathJitsu master. And he’s extremely accommodating with scheduling, always 100% punctual, and flexible with meeting locations, either at home or, in my case, a local Starbucks. If you’re in the American Canyon area and need a math tutor, you would be doing yourself a disservice not to give him a call.
Michael saved my grade in Calc. I was totally lost on integration techniques and series, but he breaks things down step-by-step without rushing. He doesn't just give you the answer—he actually teaches you how to think through the problems yourself. After three sessions, things finally clicked. Highly recommend!
Very detailed in his explanations. He’s very patient and understanding and will stick with you until it clicks with you. 10/10 recommend!
He helped me with my geometry homework. I did it online but it was very efficient and he explained everything in detail. Would recommend👍
Detailed explanations. Was a great help.
Is this a fit?
- Math only. SAT math, algebra, geometry, calculus, K-12 and college math. If your kid needs help in every subject, I'm not the right fit.
- Always 1-on-1. In person in the Bay Area, or online from anywhere.
- I'm a math tutor, not a clinician. My job is the math, and making it feel doable.
Questions parents ask
Does my kid need an ADHD diagnosis?
No formal diagnosis needed. Tell me how your kid learns best, and we start there.
How do the breaks work?
Short breaks as needed, depending on the student.
Can you tutor my kid online?
Yes. Online sessions are $50/hr, taught in English, for students anywhere in the US or abroad. In-person sessions are $60/hr in Solano, Napa and Contra Costa counties.
How much does it cost?
Same rate as every student: $60/hr in person, $50/hr online.
Can't my kid just use an app or AI?
