I love helping people! Whether it's learning math, writing, reading, etc. or playing sports, I really enjoy seeing other succeed via my assistance. I try to relate to students in whatever they enjoy and in doing so, apply concepts to our like interests to work through difficult subjects as well as to help foster a good, professional relationship. I have tutored several students in both math and English in the past and they have enjoyed resounding success and continue to reach out for my assistance. I look forward to working with and meeting many students and parents while helping them succeed in any way I can. When I am not tutoring, I enjoy playing sports (golf, basketball, softball, volleyball), playing with my dog, and hanging out with my wife. In addition, I am a meteorologist and oceanographer following my graduation at Penn State University with a BS in Meteorology. Finally, I am presently a student at MIT pursuing a Master's degree in Physical Oceanography.
As a passionate educator with a Master's degree in Criminology from Indiana University of Pennsylvania, I am dedicated to fostering a supportive learning environment for my students. With over 2 years of tutoring experience, being retired military and thirty year of law enforcement experience, I employ personalized teaching methods that cater to individual learning styles preparing for students for Police Officer Exams and ASVAB testing. My approach emphasizes building confidence and critical thinking skills, ensuring that each student not only masters the material but also develops a genuine interest in their studies. Currently teaching, I am motivated by the opportunity to guide students toward their academic goals, and I find fulfillment in witnessing their growth and success. Outside of tutoring, I enjoy exploring literature and engaging in community activities, which enrich my perspective and enhance my teaching practice.
I have been coaching students to their best performance in math for seven years. I am fluent in all levels of math, primary, secondary, and freshman/sophomore university level. I am also fluent with the mathematics which one may find on the ACT, SAT, GRE, ASVAB, CLEP test and most standardized test. My background in Engineering also gives me a level of confidence with computer science and general sciences such as physics and chemistry. I have over a year of study in each myself. Overall, I have had much success working with students in various languages and levels of computer programming.

Frequently Asked Questions
The ASVAB (Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery) is a standardized test used by all branches of the military to assess your skills in math, reading, science, and mechanical reasoning. Your score determines military career eligibility, enlistment qualifications, and the jobs available to you—making it a critical step for students in Honolulu considering military service.
The ASVAB includes nine subtests: Word Knowledge, Paragraph Comprehension, Arithmetic Reasoning, Mathematics Knowledge, General Science, Electronics Information, Mechanical Comprehension, Assembling Objects, and Auto & Shop Information. Personalized tutoring helps you focus on your weaker areas—whether that's math concepts, reading comprehension, or technical knowledge—rather than spending equal time on everything.
Many students struggle with the math sections, particularly Arithmetic Reasoning and Mathematics Knowledge, which require quick problem-solving under time pressure. Others find the technical content (Electronics, Mechanical Comprehension) unfamiliar if they haven't had hands-on experience. Working with a tutor helps you identify your specific weak spots and build confidence in those areas before test day.
In a classroom, instruction moves at an average pace—which may be too fast if you're struggling with fundamentals or too slow if you're ahead. Personalized tutoring adapts to your learning style, paces content to your needs, and focuses intensively on your problem areas. This targeted approach typically leads to faster improvement and higher confidence on test day.
Score improvement depends on your starting point and how much you practice, but students typically see meaningful gains within 4-8 weeks of focused tutoring. The key is identifying exactly which concepts or question types are holding you back, then drilling those areas with strategic practice and feedback—something personalized instruction excels at.
Your first session is a diagnostic—the tutor will assess your current strengths and weaknesses across the ASVAB sections, understand your timeline, and learn your learning style. From there, you'll build a customized study plan that prioritizes the areas where you'll gain the most points, along with test-taking strategies specific to the ASVAB format.
Most students benefit from 4-12 weeks of preparation, depending on their baseline skills and target score. If you're strong in math and reading but weak in technical content, you might need less time. A tutor can give you a realistic timeline after assessing where you stand and help you stay on track with a structured study schedule.
Look for tutors with strong backgrounds in math, science, and reading—the core ASVAB subjects. Ideally, they have experience with military entrance exams and understand the specific format and time pressure of the test. Varsity Tutors connects you with expert tutors who have proven success helping students prepare for standardized military entrance exams.
