I have over a decade of professional experience teaching and tutoring mathematics and SAT test prep. Over the years I have developed very effective techniques and strategies for working with students, and I have become very skilled at individualizing my instruction according to each student's unique needs, goals, and abilities. I explain math concepts and problems in simple, step-by-step ways that help students understand and remember. My students experience dramatic improvements in their problem-solving skills, academic performance, confidence, and SAT test scores.

As an experienced professional educator, I work very hard to help my students realize their greatest improvement. For potential regular-schedule clients, I typically request a no-charge interview/consultation with the student (and parent, as applicable) to ensure the best possible tutoring arrangement.

Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions!

Algebra 1,

Algebra 1

I have over a decade of professional experience tutoring all levels of algebra and integrated math. I am expertly skilled at helping students learn algebraic concepts and techniques, and I am very familiar with the common core curriculum and integrated approaches to math. I also have extensive experience as a SAT and ACT math tutor and instructor, so I offer additional expertise in delivering effective methods and strategies for solving the algebra-based problems found on these exams as well.
Algebra 2,

Algebra 2

I have over a decade of professional experience teaching and tutoring algebra 2 and integrated math levels 1, 2, and 3. I am highly skilled at explaining algebraic concepts and techniques, and since I also have extensive experience as a SAT and ACT math instructor, I offer special expertise in delivering effective methods and strategies for solving the algebra-based problems found on these exams as well.
Calculus,

Calculus

Mainly my experience has focused on helping students with AP Calculus and helping them to prepare for the AP exam, but I have also worked with many college students taking business calculus and calculus 1 at RCC, Cal Baptist, CSUSB, La Sierra, and a few other local colleges and universities. I've got lots of extra worksheets and released exam questions to help you power through your course!
Chemistry,

Chemistry

Over the past decade I've helped many dozens of students with AP chemistry, honors and regular chemistry, and general chemistry. I've had great success helping students prepare for both the AP exam and the SAT chemistry subject tests. I've got a file cabinet filled with handouts, problem sets, practice tests, and released exam questions to help you succeed in your course.
Geometry,

Geometry

I have over a decade of professional experience tutoring both middle-school and high-school geometry (including honors and advanced courses). I am very experienced at helping students learn all aspects of geometry, including concepts, problems, proofs, geometric reasoning, testing strategies, SAT-style geometry problems, etc.
Precalculus,

Precalculus

I have a decade of professional experience working with high school and college precalculus and trigonometry students (including those at the honors and advanced levels). My textbook library contains several popular precalculus textbooks, and I have accumulated a huge selection of worksheets, handouts, and formula sheets to help students effectively navigate this class.
SAT Math

SAT Math

With over a decade of professional experience as a full-time math tutor and SAT math instructor, I offer a high level of expertise in teaching the SAT's math concepts and strategies. I've helped hundreds of students - many just like you (or your child) - achieve stellar score increases. I'm highly skilled at helping students master the test's content while simultaneously helping them to refine their test-taking skills. I deliver clearly explained, targeted lessons, and supplement every student's program of study with directly relevant practice problems. Students learn the most effective and efficient ways of approaching each type of problem, and I help them avoid the most common exam pitfalls and careless errors. I also love helping students prepare for the SAT math level 2 subject test. For the best results, and particularly if large score increases are the goal, I recommend students begin their preparation early. Regularly scheduled lessons over at least several week's time help to ensure that students will master the concepts and strategies that maximize performance.

Knowledgeable, patient and encouraging

Kevin is fantastic, he is patient, encouraging, knowledgeable and fun. He is always very invested in the success of his students. My sons have both gone to Kevin for a few years now and we couldn't be more satisfied. Kevin was able to cater to our sons different abilities in math, perfectly ensuring the tutoring sessions were fun and enjoyable while also making sure they made good progress at the right pace and within their comfort levels. Kevin was instrumental in assisting my sons in scoring higher on their SAT's which no doubt played a role in them being accepted to Whittier College and UCLA. I can't recommend Kevin highly enough.

Pat, 9 lessons with Kevin

An excellent tutor!

Kevin is a fantastic tutor. My son had numerous lessons with Kevin for the SAT Math Level II and his score increased over 150 points! He also helped him review for the regular math section of the SATs. Kevin is patient and knowledgeable and offered him a ton of practice problems. He truly cared about my son’s progress!

Jana, 17 lessons with Kevin

Excellent SAT Prep!

He was able to assess my sons weakness and improve his outlook on testing for an increased score. Very much appreciated and very highly recommended...

She recently took a big math test and received her best score ever. Much of it to do with the help of Kevin. I am so thankful we found Kevin. He is the perfect tutor for our daughter. Kevin is a champion for her success!

Julie, 111 lessons with Kevin

Excellent SAT Math Tutor

My son is fairly intelligent but needed a bit of a refresher with SAT math. Kevin is an excellent tutor. He was very accommodating and followed-up promptly. Kevin is through and was able to help him with many different math problems. I believe my son's math score will be up 100 points with just two sessions. He was super confident SAT exam day thanks to Kevin!

Robert, 2 lessons with Kevin

Happy Camper

My daughter actually smiles before and after tutoring. This brings me joy. Math has never been easy or fun for her so the smile speaks volumes.

Maria , 63 lessons with Kevin

Knowledgeable and patient tutor

Kevin has really helped my daughter, filling in knowledge gaps from her previous math classes. He's patient, very knowledgeable about math, the SAT, and college admissions. My daughter started working with Kevin after a disappointing PSAT score in sophomore year. I was so impressed at our first meeting, when he asked about her SAT goals, and college plans, and then tailored the sessions to meet her goals. He keeps up with the latest changes on the SAT and has been very proactive in preparing my daughter for the rigor of her upcoming IB math. Highly recommend him!

Tasha, 14 lessons with Kevin

Excellent Tutor!

Kevin is an amazing tutor and is very patient! Highly recommended! He makes thing so easy to understand. I've worked with him numerous times and I always feel like I understand clearly how to solve problems on my own once I get home to practice. I'm taking an accelerated course, and I wouldn't be surviving without him!
