Using Creativity to Tailor Teaching Methods to Each Individual Student
Greetings, I am a mathematics student at the University of South Florida and a professional tutor servicing the Tampa Bay area. I graduated from Land O Lakes High School with a Bilingual IB Diploma with the recognition of AP Scholar with Distinction, as well as having earned 52 college credits in High School. Due to my high standardized test scores in high school, I earned a 4 year, $36k scholarship to USF as well as the full Bright Futures scholarship. Besides tutoring, I am going to school...

differential equations
I took Differential Equations at USF and got a B+ for the course. I had a professor that assigned tons and tons of book work so I have many hours of practice solving differential equations. I have two books which cover Differential Equations, so if you're having difficulties solving problems, I can show you different methods that perhaps your teacher and textbook may have not have explained to you properly.
AutoCAD
I took two semesters of AutoCad at USF and received high marks on both occasions. Having so much practice in it, most things are very intuitive for me and I could help the students learn shortcuts and tricks that would make their lives much easier. Additionally, since most students that would require tutoring in this would be university students, I would already have taken the courses and know what they need to go over and what they need to be proficient in.

My son, in 10th grade math honors, was doing very poorly and not grasping the concept or understanding Algebra 2. Kevin spent a little over an hour with him and my son already feels he can can do most of the problems. He says Kevin is very intelligent.

Kevin did a good job assisting with an Honors Physics review. The math component is difficult as this student is only in tenth grade and has not had calc or trig. It is nice to find such a polite, relatable young man available to tutor.

I was unsure of finding a tutor online for my son, but I have to say after just one session my son has come home with 3 excellent grades on two tests and 1 quiz that are in his hardest classes. One thing I do know that Kevin was patient, and my son was comfortable with his approach and obviously retained the concepts discussed. He has more confidence in these subjects and looks forward to his next session. Thank you, Kevin!

Kevin has been a breath of fresh air for our family! He adapted to my son's learning style immediately and helped him in the areas needed. Finally, we're turning a corner in Algebra 2 and moving along at a better pace with definite understanding! I'm so glad I found this website and Kevin and would highly recommend him!!!

I have been working with Kevin for a few months now and he is always able to explain concepts to me when I am not understanding them. He never gets frustrated, even when I make him explain something over again. He is helping my grades immensely and actually making me enjoy calculus. He is the best tutor I have ever worked with.
Vikram P. from Lutz, FL
He is very patient and is always there when u need him. Very sound in the subjects that he teaches. I would strongly recommend him for any one who is needing some guidance in studies.

Kevin helped my 11th grader, with studying for his 9 week exam. Dylan was struggling with the materials and after one session with Kevin was able to get a 75 on the exam. Had we been able to fit one more session in our schedule he probably could have gotten a B. Dylan feels comfortable with Kevin and his style of teaching.
Stefan B. from Wesley Chapel, FL
Kevin really helped me understand mathematical concepts that had held me back for a very long time. With his help I passed a math class I had previously failed. Strongly recommended!
D D. from Tampa, FL
Kevin was able to meet with us with such short notice. He worked with my son and was very understanding. He quickly assessed his need and determined what method was best to teach him. They worked well together and he is now re-engaged in his learning. Thank you Kevin!

Kevin is an excellent professional tutor. He's extremely knowledgeable and makes learning easy and enjoyable. He keeps on task and is extremely efficient. He's friendly and makes the student feel comfortable and confident. There first tutoring session was extremely productive and they actually worked for 3 hours straight. My daughter felt so positive and accomplished after the session. Thanks Kevin you're awesome!
