I am a licensed classroom teacher with 20 years of experience teaching and tutoring mathematics and computer science. I hold undergraduate degrees in Mathematics Education and Computer Science, along with a Master’s degree in Teaching and Learning (M.Ed.). I currently teach high school math, computer science, and AP-level courses. Much of my experience has focused on Algebra 2, Precalculus, and AP Computer Science.

I help students strengthen understanding, close learning gaps, and build confidence in challenging math and computer science courses. My goal is not just to help with tonight’s homework, but to help students understand concepts deeply enough to become more independent and successful learners. I adapt instruction to each student’s needs, background, and goals.

Subjects I teach and tutor:

Mathematics: Pre-Algebra, Algebra 1, Geometry, Algebra 2, Trigonometry, Honors/AP Precalculus, Calculus tutoring, ACT/SAT Math Prep

Computer Science: Introductory Programming, Python, Java, HTML/CSS, AP Computer Science A, AP Computer Science Principles, Cybersecurity

Students I work with include:

Students who want to improve in their current math or computer science course.
Students who need targeted help with concepts, assignments, quizzes, or tests.
Honors/AP students seeking deeper explanations and additional practice.
Students with foundational gaps that are affecting current coursework.
Students preparing for the ACT or SAT.
Students who want stronger problem-solving skills, confidence, and independence.

Contact me with your specific needs and goals to see if I would be a good fit for you or your student.

Very helpful and knowledgeable

Matt helped my son with pre-calculus. He was struggling understanding the first unit and was worried it would just get worse. Matt gave him a different way to look at the problems that really clicked with my son. It started making sense to him and he feels much more confident on the subject now.

Matt is awesome and caring

Great tutor! Knowledgeable and thorough. He helped my daughter with pre calculus and she made the Dean’s List! I’m very satisfied.

Mr K is a true teacher

As a high school teacher myself, I really appreciate Mr K’s approach to tutoring… it is true teaching. Rather than just working problems in front of my daughter, he questions prior knowledge and encourages her to make attempts. Then, he guided her through the rest of the problem, supporting her as needed and adding to her confidence as a math learner. I would highly recommend him.

Great Tutor

Matt was a great fit for my 16 year old son. After a year between Algebra 1 and Algebra 2, he needed a refresher. Matt helped him jump back in with confidence. Hope to schedule again with him soon.

Excellent tutor

Matt has worked with my son all of second quarter in Algebra II and really helped him pull up his grades. What’s more, my son feels very comfortable working with Matt, making the tutoring sessions a stress free and extremely helpful experience. Matt is awesome!

Great Support!!

Matt did a great job with explaining and giving my daughter direction and guidance with her Algebra II course work. She was very comfortable with his approach and said that in just her first lesson, it provided her with a better grasp on the material. she definitely wanted to schedule more sessions moving forward with Matt and was excited about her learning!!

Helpful, patient, and knowledgeable

We had technical difficulties logging in to the lesson. Matt was so patient and found a way to help us. He then answered all of my son's questions. Although my son was unsure about doing it at first, afterward he agreed that it was really helpful. Hearing that I was right was music to my ears. Thank you, Matt!
