Bio

I love helping people solve problems using math and computer applications. I graduated from the University of Wisconsin - Madison with a degree in Mechanical Engineering, earning excellent grades while being challenged in all kinds of theoretical and practical math subjects. In business I helped my employers improve processes and efficiency through data analysis and decision making support.

I love helping people solve problems using math and computer applications. I graduated from the University of Wisconsin - Madison with a degree in Mechanical Engineering, earning excellent grades while being challenged in all kinds of theoretical and practical math subjects. In business I helped my employers improve processes and efficiency through data analysis and decision making support.

I enjoy trying to present math concepts in a unique manner to try to connect with the student. Textbooks and online courses usually only present a problem from one point of view and that one size fits all approach simply doesn't work for everyone.

I am now semi-retired and tutor to help share my skills and experience with people of all ages. In addition to private tutoring, I tutor part time in a walk in math lab at a community college. This has given me a chance to work with a diverse group of students on a wide variety of math related subjects. This is challenging but also very rewarding and helps keep me sharp and broadens my skills. On an annual basis I spend a minimum of 1200 hours in one-on-one tutoring sessions.

I pride myself on being patient and working hard to tailor my tutoring to the needs of the student.

I have used Microsoft Access actively over the past 15 years (starting with Access 97) to solve a variety of business problems.

I am well versed in the creation of forms, tables, data relationships, queries, custom reports, macros, VBA code. Much of the work in have done also involved automated data import and export.

Learning More about Microsoft Access

My tutor was absolutely great! He understood my present understanding, what I wanted to do, and he guided me, gracefully, through the process. As I said, he was great.

Custom Report Solution

Kevin listened to what was needed and turned out a terrific solution that meets our custom reporting needs. Practical and logic-based solutions. Very pleasant and patient in teaching me how to replicate. I highly recommend his services!

Amy, 2 lessons with Kevin

Kevin's help was better than AWESOME

Patient, methodical, and extremely helpful, Kevin listened first then helped me accomplish what I attempted to do myself. The headache I self inflicted prior to finding Kevin told me to look outside my own knowledge base. Thankfully, my spirits are lifted in one 90 minute session. I can't thank you enough. Great job Kevin!

Easy to follow, patient

Kevin taught me the little things I should have been using all along- Range names, conditional formatting, Absolute and relative cells, Formatting such as border clean-up and format painter and formatting a table, data validation, etc.- all things I know I'll use. Can't wait for the next lesson!

Excellent Teacher

Kevin is a patient and excellent listener and teacher. I started out with a general impression of what I wanted to learn in Microsoft Excel--Kevin helped me to identify and articulate my goals and what factors I should focus on to improve my Excel skills--invaluable guidance. In essence, Kevin is not only teaching me Microsoft Excel skills, he is more importantly teaching me how to learn on my own!
