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.

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!

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.

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!

Very Kind and Knowledgable

Kevin helped me better understand non-linear regression, by walking through a class example of mine. He helped me produce graphs and data on Minitab and explained everything clearly as he went along. I feel much more confident--thank you Kevin!

Knowledgeable, kind and skilled tutor!

Kevin is a great tutor. I am 25 years removed from High School - and have returned to school to obtain my bachelor's degree. I received Kevin's assistance over the course of one month - about 2-3x a week - for my Business Analytics II / Statistics class. He willingly reviewed my syllabus and applicable lecture slides to fully understand my professor's curriculum. Kevin's extra effort contributed 100% to my success in my Business Analytics II class. Due to Kevin's guidance and experience, he gave me the confidence to approach all concepts covered throughout my course. If you select Kevin, you will not be disappointed, especially if you contract him for multiple sessions. Kevin, thank you kindly! I truly appreciate you! Best wishes!

Amazing

Kevin was great to work with. He’s smart and works at a quick pace to get more out of the tutoring session. He’s taught me so many things already and I’ve only had one session so far. 10 out of 10 recommend.

Excellent

Kevin is awesome, very lucky to find him. Needed help in stats class and Kevin breaks it down hands down 100 times better than my professor. He goes above and beyond to make sure I understand and uses analogies that I can relate to that helps the information make more sense. Thank you!

Josh, 6 lessons with Kevin

Thank you!!

Kevin was so helpful and patient. He went through an assignment with me and really dedicated all his time. He even took the time to email me and go through some problems we were too sure about. I am thankful for him and very happy with his services.

Wonderful

The tutor was great !. He listened and understood my concerns very well. He also gave me a great lesson to go off of for just our first day ! His teaching style seems to be straightforward but gives clear steps and instructions on what to do, which I needed .
