My tutoring approach is one of coaching, mentoring, and helping the student understand exactly what level and detail of help that they need to get ahead. Combining the personal discipline learned during 20 years as a Naval Officer with the unique expertise learned in one-on-one communication with peers and sailors as well as my five children, I can help you or your child succeed. A Bachelor's in Electrical Engineering, and a Math Minor help qualify me for tutoring in many subjects. My individualized tutoring methods also raised my step-son's Physics grade from a C to an A in one semester. I specialize in mathematics (basic arithmetic through calculus) but can help in many other subjects. Learning should be fun, but should also, at times, bring "Instant" results. I work to keep positive encouragement in every lesson, tutoring, or test preparation session. I speak fluent Spanish!
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 and determine military job eligibility. Your score influences which positions you can qualify for and affects your military career path. For students in Provo considering military service, strong ASVAB performance opens doors to more competitive roles and higher enlistment bonuses.
The ASVAB includes nine subtests covering Verbal Expression, Arithmetic Reasoning, Word Knowledge, Paragraph Comprehension, Mathematics Knowledge, Electronics Information, Auto and Shop Information, Mechanical Comprehension, and Assembling Objects. Most students find Arithmetic Reasoning, Mathematics Knowledge, and Mechanical Comprehension particularly challenging because they require both conceptual understanding and quick problem-solving under time pressure.
Personalized 1-on-1 instruction allows tutors to identify your specific weak areas—whether that's math fundamentals, reading comprehension, or mechanical reasoning—and create a targeted study plan. Rather than spending time on content you already know, you focus on the concepts holding back your score. This focused approach typically leads to faster improvement than classroom-style test prep.
Your first session is an assessment and planning meeting. A tutor will discuss your military goals, review any previous test attempts, and identify which ASVAB sections need the most work. Together, you'll create a study timeline and agree on focus areas so you can make the most of your remaining prep time before test day.
Improvement depends on your starting point and how frequently you study, but most students see meaningful gains within 4-8 weeks of consistent preparation. If you're targeting specific sections like math or mechanical reasoning, focused tutoring can help you master foundational gaps quickly. The key is starting early enough to allow time for practice and reinforcement before your official test date.
ASVAB math requires both speed and accuracy—you have limited time per question and can't use a calculator. Many students struggle because they haven't practiced mental math or quick estimation, or because they have gaps in foundational algebra and geometry. Personalized tutoring helps you build confidence in core concepts, learn time-saving strategies, and develop the mental math skills the test demands.
Mechanical Comprehension tests your understanding of physics, tools, and how machines work—concepts many students haven't studied formally since middle school. Tutoring helps you relearn these principles through clear explanations and visual examples, then practice applying them to ASVAB-style questions. Regular practice with real test questions is essential because the concepts are often unfamiliar to students without a technical background.
Varsity Tutors connects you with experienced ASVAB tutors who understand the test format, scoring, and military requirements. You can share your availability and goals, and we'll match you with a tutor who fits your schedule and learning style.
