Kevin

Set Yourself Apart!

I understand that so many times, what separates exceptional students from other students isn't intelligence or aptitude, but the passion to learn. It has been my life's work to help others to gain that desire by meeting them at their level, and helping them with the way forward to success. I have always loved teaching in many different capacities. From college age on, I have tutored young people on many different subjects ranging from math to music. For over 20 years, I have instructed pil...

I work as a paraeducator in our school district at the grade school, middle school, and high school levels. I have the opportunity daily to work with individuals with ADD/ADHD, and it is a wonderful experience to be a part of unlocking that potential inside of them!

Kevin is exactly what we hoped for. Someone to use a patient voice and praise for my son. He spent the entire hour encouraging his good practice. Kevin reinforced to my son that he can do it. And now my son has confidence he can succeed! Kevin rocks. He's a lifesaver! I highly recommend him. Wish I had him when I was in college!


Callie B. from Tacoma, WA

Kevin is tutoring my daughter in Honors Physics and she has made great strides in only 2 sessions. He is passionate and knowledgeable about the subject and was able to bring clarity to concepts she didn't completely grasp through class lectures and reading. He has a calm, patient demeanor and gave her a lot of encouragement. He used real world examples and diagrams to connect concepts to practical world applications. Highly recommended!


Alton T. from Lakewood, WA

My 7 year-old son was very happy spending time with Kevin. When he was asked about Kevin, he showed a big smile with satisfaction. Kevin understands what it takes to trigger my son to talk and to learn with him. My wife and I have are planning to schedule future appointments with Kevin for tutoring our son. We believe Kevin will make an excellent tutor and helping our son to reach to his full potential.


Vickie D. from Steilacoom, WA

My daughter's second tutoring session was amazing! As she prepared for an upcoming test, Kevin was able to take apart concepts and present them to her in a way that she understood. He also impressed upon her the importance of studying and practicing her new skill - something she actually did (without me prompting) after he left. Once again, after her lesson she was beaming with confidence and commented, "Why didn't we do this sooner?"


Jodie L. from Tacoma, WA

Kevin has a real knack for tutoring. He is a great listener and has the ability to describe problems so that I can understand what he is trying to teach me. His sharp mind and energy made my first session with him a pleasure. I would have spent all day with him solving math problems if it were possible.


Kyle D. from Gig Harbor, WA

Kevin is very supportive and encourages me along the way. I feel that I am making good progress and looking forward to continuing to work with him.


Dara K. from Tacoma, WA

My 15-year-old son has had several sessions with Kevin. Kevin is positive, patient and explains things in a way that “clicks” with my son. He has provided a practice plan that is working, and my son will actually practice on his own without being told. My son looks forward to his sessions with Kevin, and after just the first session commented, “I wish he worked at our school. So many kids could be helped.” Not only are my son’s grades beginning to turn around, but he no longer feels lost and helpless. That is priceless! I’m so glad we found Kevin!


Cathi W. from Federal Way, WA

Thanks to Kevin's wonderful tips, techniques and his humor and approach, my son has been able to understand what he needs to do well in honors physics and is well prepared for the AP Physics B test. But most of all Kevin really help instill confidence in my son who was challenged this semester in physics. Kevin is able to really explain all of the concepts in layman's terms and provide real life examples that a teenager can understand and relate to - he has a knack of being able to make learning an enjoyable process. We cannot thank Kevin enough!!


Ali H. from University Place, WA

Kevin has been working with my daughter for several weeks now. Not only has her grade been going up steadily but so has her confidence with pre-calc and her stress level has decreased. Kevin makes himself very available not only for scheduled tutoring sessions but whenever she may have a question. He helps her in every way he can and we are forever appreciative!


Peter & Brenda H. from Tacoma, WA

This is the first time we have used a tutor. Kevin was punctual, enthusiastic and patient. He took the time to get to know our son and to teach him in terms he could understand. He was cheerful and had a passion for physics which put our son at ease and motivated him to get his project done. Our son was not excited about getting a tutor but with Kevin's relaxed manner he received the the help he needed and is able to finish the rest of the assignment on his own. This has been a very positive experience and a huge stress reliever!


Elias W. from Gig Harbor, WA

I like how positive and supportive Kevin is with my son. I am so glad we thought of employing Kevin to help with tutoring my son for the SAT. It is worth every penny.
