I am very passionate about helping my students succeed in their specific course skills challenges, while also developing a positive and empowering sense about their academic accomplishments and overall confidence in learning. My philosophy is to first build communication through a sense of trust and empathy with my student, then demystify the topic by simplifying and explaining the needed steps and concepts in a personalized manner as I guide them in working through the technique. While I enjoy helping students at all levels of proficiency, I have refined my tutoring skills especially toward students who are struggling with grasping or learning a stats topic.

I hold a Computer Science BS from Kent State University and an MBA from University of Akron. While at UA, I served as stats/analytics tutor, Assistant Professor of Practice, Business Statistics course coordinator; taught around forty classroom/online courses and helped thousands of students succeed individually.

Please feel free to message for my upcoming availability, specific questions or with project content; I’ll be glad to evaluate and get back to you soon!

Statistics

I have taught around 40 college elementary/business stats courses, and tutored with more than 3,000 students. I consider it my specialty to be able to connect with students who may be struggling with the concepts and, together, walk them through while explaining each step understandably. I have expertise and experience in teaching and tutoring all areas of elementary and AP stats course topics.

Incredibly Patient, Knowledgeable, and Kind

Second time booking with Kevin. Really enjoyed his help using excel, learning the relevant formulas I needed help understanding, and receiving practical scenarios that apply to finance. Very humble and patient to explain things again if you didn’t grasp it the first or second time. Highly recommend!

Incredibly Patient, Knowledgeable, and Kind

To give you context, I have absolutely no background in finance and have very basic understanding excel as I come from a completely different career where I am returning back to school, where I’m rusty in very simple math concepts. Kevin really helps you understand the fundamentals and takes it to the next level of providing real life, practical examples of what is commonly done in the workforce. He helped me with algebra, excel functions, and breaking down the question that made the answer very clear. If you are embarrassed to ask again, he has no problem of finding a way to reword or find another way to explain it. He is great. I strongly recommend!

Great Lessons!!

My son has hard time with this class. He entered his class few weeks late and felt behind already. He told me he is helping understand more than he has. We will keep using him this year.

very thorough

I appreciate Kevin trying to understand my research and making time to look up each piece of information to give me correct guidance.

Amanda, 1 lesson with Kevin

SUPER helpful!

Kevin has been such a wonderful tutor! In just two sessions, he's helped me understand so much more than I could before. I highly recommend him—he carefully explains each step and walks you through all the concepts one at a time, making everything much easier to grasp!

Excellent Statistics Tutor

Kevin has helped me understand concepts that my professors could not. He breaks things down in different ways which makes concepts easier to understand. Lately, I’ve been struggling with probabilities and Kevin taught me a table method that has helped me out significantly. Please book Kevin for your next session!

Helpful and intuitive

Kevin has been a wonderful resource for my kiddo for their AP Statistics class. When the class began, my high schooler felt very bewildered and uncomfortable with the material, but once the lessons started with Kevin, everything improved—especially grades. Thank you, Kevin!

Amy, 13 lessons with Kevin

Great tutor

Kevin was very patient and explained everything in a way that finally made me understand it better. I will definitely use Kevin again when I need guidance on future topics.

Tara, 3 lessons with Kevin

Very Knowledgeable and Approachable Tutor!

Kevin has been an amazing help throughout this MBA course. He’s a rare find in that he has all the knowledge and experience necessary to understand and teach the material but also approaches each student differently. He takes the time to learn what each student struggles with and what they know well and adjusts his teaching style to what lever works best. I would recommend Kevin to anyone wanted help with a Statistics or any analytical course without hesitation!
