Great Tutor.

This man is an exceptional tutor. Keith is prompt, courteous, and professional. He understands the subject thoroughly but also has a gift of teaching the material in a manner that the student can understand. We consider ourselves very fortunate to have found him. I would suggest that anyone considering tutors, to not be dissuaded by his higher rate. You have to consider that this man can teach material in a manner that is grasped quickly and thoroughly when compared to a tutor with a cheaper rate. Another tutor may take twice as long to convey the same understanding to your student.

Dawn, 6 lessons with Keith

Patient and very good at explaining difficult concepts. Highly recommended

Dr. L. was able to meet with me for two hours on short notice. We went over the thermodynamics of mechanical explosions, equations of state and the derivatives of some thermodynamic properties.

Jonah, 1 lesson with Keith

Knowledgeable and Patient

What I really like about Keith is he takes it back to the basics. He wants to ensure my son is able to complete his Algebra 2 problems with or without a calculator. Additionally, his engineering background allows him to tutor my son regarding his Principles of Engineering class. He’s a win win across the board.

Tamika, 82 lessons with Keith

Patient and effective tutor.

He helped me understand AP Physics 1 and 2 for the first time this year. He also taught me easier ways to do what I was doing in physics through short cuts. He works with you and is patient getting you through any problems.

Toni, 1 lesson with Keith

Amazing tutor

Keith is an amazing tutor! In the few weeks my kids have been working with him, they are now beginning to understand what they did not in an entire school year of chemistry. I highly recommend him. He is very patient.

Karen, 7 lessons with Keith

Organized

Keith is exactly what we thought he would be for my son. He is giving Gavin an organized manor to preform proper problem solving in Math.

Gavin, 5 lessons with Keith

Approachable and Friendly

My son was delighted with his first tutoring session. He really likes Keith. He instructs in a way that is easy to understand and he is approachable and friendly.

Michele, 16 lessons with Keith

Amazing tutor!

Our son's sixth grade teacher recommended we get a math tutor to help our son a little bit in some areas and we are very grateful to have found Dr. Keith!! He is very knowledgeable, calm and very easy to understand. Our son quickly picked up what he was being taught. We are looking forward to working with him again!! I would recommend him to anyone both young and old.

Nathan, 15 lessons with Keith

My son really enjoyed learning with Keith.

Thank you for working with my son this past week. He really seemed to enjoy the lesson and looks forward to this next Thursday.

Debra, 29 lessons with Keith

Friendly and helpful

We had gone over basic algebra problems and rules. He made sure that I understood something before we moved on.
