Bio

Hi! I have been working with students in the area of math for over 20 years in both classrooms and one-on-one instruction. I thoroughly enjoy tutoring because I am able to see the progress my students are making each time we meet and celebrate their successes.

Hi! I have been working with students in the area of math for over 20 years in both classrooms and one-on-one instruction. I thoroughly enjoy tutoring because I am able to see the progress my students are making each time we meet and celebrate their successes. My background includes teaching high school and middle school math in the Florida and Missouri Public School Systems for over 14 years. I am certified in grades 6-12 and have experience teaching the following courses in middle and high schools: Basic Math, Pre-Algebra, Algebra 1, Algebra 2, and Geometry.

Another passion of mine is volunteering my time in various after school programs. I have volunteered in the Lee County Take Stock in Children Program by mentoring high school students that are applying for a free scholarship program. I have also participated as a tutor for middle/high school students in New Horizon’s After School Program in Bonita Springs, and have been involved in the Big Brother Program for years.

My experience prior to teaching is in the Information Systems area where I worked for a major corporation for over 25 years. This experience in the business world allows me to use real world applications for the math that I teach and enables me to make math more interesting to students.

I pride myself in my ability to keep students engaged in math, and in getting students to really feel a sense of pride and accomplishment. My past students will vouch for me on this! I have very flexible hours on weekends and after school. I look forward to hearing from you and working with your student to enjoy math again.

Great Tutor

Kent is very patient and really cares about his students. My son is feeling more confident about Geometry and is no longer struggling. He is excited about his grades and can't wait to share them with Kent. He looks forward to their weekly sessions. We are so happy we found such a wonderful tutor!

Great tutor

My son does great on his tests after his material review with Kent. Kent is knowledgeable, patient, and has a great way of explaining the material. He provides examples that help understand the material very easily.

Rachel, 44 lessons with Kent

Patient, kind and knowledgeable

Kent is very knowledgeable. Explained problems in a way it was easily understood. Was very nice, on time and answered my request promptly. If your older or young I highly recommend Kent.

Linda, 1 lesson with Kent

Patient and knowledgeable

Thank you for finding the ways to enlighten our son in algebra 1. He was struggling somewhat conceptually and you help him find new ways to help him see the topic more clearly. Having him complete the examples as well helps to solidify the concepts for him.

So lucky to have found Kent

Kent is currently helping my son in Algebra 2. My son was not understanding the concepts in his math class, nor did his own teacher's style of teaching help him understand the material. Kent is able to break down the steps and makes sure that my son understands each step. Kent is also great at helping my son with his homework, which makes the work go by so much faster and also saves him a great deal of frustration. I highly recommend Kent and will be forever grateful to him.

Knowledgeable tutor

He helped my child with his math homework and the next day when he took his test he got an A. I am very thankful for his help. I would also highly recommend him as your next tutor.

Knowledgeable and great personality

Our 14 year old daughter felt immediately comfortable with Kent. Her time was limited and Kent and she were able to get through a lot of algebra two content in record time. She looks forward to working with him next week.

Kathryn, 7 lessons with Kent

Kent is an awesome tutor. he was able to reach and teach my child at her level.

Ken has helped my child with algebra. He has made what seemed to her as an insurmountable task, into something that she can conquer. After a few sessions her understanding and confidence improved dramatically.
