Trying to go back to school and need a refresher? Does your child struggle in their class because the teaching style doesn't mesh with his or her needs? Are you trying to ace an upcoming test like the ACT, SAT, or GRE and you need some guidance? All of these are just some of the many scenarios where I have provided my services and have demonstrated very positive results! Let me summarize some important facts about my career as a tutor but also my personal life.

-Obtained a Masters of Science in Marine Biology at Nova Southeastern University
-Obtained a Bachelors of Science in Biology at the University of Wisconsin-La Crosse
-Over 1000 hours of private and WyzAnt tutoring experience
-Three years of experience tutoring at a local elementary school for 5 hours a day
-Currently a project manager, overseeing 35 employees
-Father of three, adventurous boys

I have the formal education background to understand these complex math and science concepts. I have the teaching experience to successfully convey these complex math and science concepts in such a way that students can easily grasp them and apply them with ease. I have a consistent track record of taking students from their current situation (failing a class, poor test scores, etc.), to not only meeting but exceeding their expectations. I do this all for an affordable price because I do not believe knowledge should be out of anyone's reach. I am flexible to work with, can adapt my teaching styles, and am a "down to earth guy" that people enjoy working with.

I thank you for your time and I hope you consider me in your search for a tutor.

Thrilled with Curtis

When my son started to work with Curtis, we set goals- understanding the material, increasing ability to prepare for tests, and to improve grades. The expectations are being met. There is an added benefit- it is wonderful to see him looking forward to tackling home work and his increase in confidence. Curtis is able to break down the knowledge in a manner that he can understand and relate to. Very glad to have his assistance.

Knowledgeable and very good at explaining

He has taught me some fundamentals of very important lessons involved in algebra 2, such as factoring. He has also helped me get ahead of the game by teaching me lessons I haven't covered yet and has made it so much easier to understand.

Helpful Geometry Tutor

Curtis was on time and right away went to work with my daughter in geometry math. He took time to listen what we had to say and than to work on what she had problems in. When it was done my daughter felt like she knew all the work now. She was happy and understand how he show her the math. So we are happy with Curtis and will see him more for help. Thanks
