Kevin grew up with a mother who provided day care, and helping out with those children as a child himself is what first sparked his interest in education. That work continued through working at summer camps, including one that worked with students with learning and behavioral difficulties.
His focus on tutoring specifically developed at Northeastern University, where he was involved with a non-profit that partnered with local district and charter schools to run programs using local college students. He not only tutored with this organization, but helped to coordinate curriculum and assist in the running of several programs. After graduation and moving back to New Jersey, he worked through various organizations including a non-profit using state funds to provide tutoring for students in need.
For the last decade Kevin has been tutoring privately and in collaboration with several organizations. He primarily works one-on-one with students in test prep for the SAT and ACT, while also partnering with groups to provide small group classes for test prep. Through the COVID pandemic Kevin was able to continue to tutor virtually, finding ways to utilize technology in innovative ways.

Elementary (K-6th)

I worked for several years with Tutors For All, a non-profit in Boston, that works in public charter and district schools to provide one-on-one tutoring. While there, in addition to working with the students, I developed curricula for 1st-6th graders for two different programs. I also currently work with Home Educational Services and FACT of Union County with students with behavioral difficulties, including two first graders and a fourth grader in the last six months.

Fantastic Tutor

Kevin is a fantastic tutor. he was very easy to work with. He was prepared and worked well with our son. Kevin really did a great job. Our son saw a dramatic improvement with his most recent SAT scores.

Very knowledgeable

Kevin reviewed with my son math (Algebra 2) and he did an excellent job explaining and teaching each problem. I will definitely use Kevin’s help again. Hearing my son’s words “ he’s good” and listening to excitement in his voice, my son will fall in love with math again.

Knowledgeable and patient Tutor

After 1st lesson, really liked Kevin’s calm demeanor. Tutoring for the ACT is very stressful and already my daughter is definitely comfortable with him. He is nearby just in case we ever have a shot at doing in-person again.

Knows his stuff and is great at explaining

Mike got a lot from his first session with Kevin - hopefully there will be more soon. Kevin went over algebra 2 and physics. Kevin is probably more of an expert on algebra side, but he was happy to help with both. I clearly heard my son clearly say "ooooh...I get it" a few times as concepts clicked with him.

Accommodating and knowledgeable

Got a refreshing lesson today from Kevin. We worked on basic maths concepts, adding, subtracting fractions, also worked on solving basic SAT problems. Kevin is very knowledgeable and patient. I highly recommend him.
