Transformative Tutoring helps change the lives of high school, middle school or college math students of all abilities. Whether your student is struggling to master the basics, or seeking enrichment, we can help! We love math, and hopefully spending time with us each week will help your student love it too. Currently, we have Kennon McCaa available for math tutoring, as well as SAT, ACT or PSAT prep. 

Just wanted to pass along that in addition to getting an A on the [dual enrollment precalculus] final in a class with no teacher, with your help to date, [my son] improved his SAT score by 80 points [after only 30 minutes of help]… WOW… [He] has done this while having a lot on his plate at home… [and] he’s totally stepped up… We are so appreciative of your help and support of [him]. He’s really getting the confidence boost that he so desperately needs! Thank you, thank you!

Math Tutoring

• $90/hour
• 5 prepaid hours = $450
• 10 prepaid hours = $880
• Prepayment for 5 hours ($450) is required for all students with regular weekly appointments.

If you need a less expensive alternative, I would refer you to my son Carter. He’s not a licensed math teacher, but he’s done some amazing things, and families have been happy with his work. He’s in college now, so his time is very limited.

Kennon is an exemplary tutor across the board who helped our teenage son meet and exceed his potential. Our son had taken the SAT test twice before and was not able to reach his goals—he was frustrated and uninspired. What impressed us most is Kennon’s ability to fully engage our son in the process and earn his trust. He was then able to quickly assess his skill level as well as to identify specific road blocks. This served to strengthen his motivation as he began to work hard and dedicated a little time each day to practice problems. Even with a busy after school schedule, the tutoring sessions and practice times were very doable and highly productive. This past weekend our son proudly shared his test scores which were significantly higher than before. Kennon delivers results and is a truly talented tutor who is heavily invested in his students success. We are grateful to have found him!

How Many Hours of Test Prep are Needed?

Every student is different, some learn quickly, some do not, some do the work we recommend, some do not, some already have a good score, some do not, some have had straight A’s and have taken advanced math, and some have not. Because of this, it is hard to know how many hours of tutoring a student will need to improve their score or grades. Regardless of the situation, we believe that in nearly all cases, a minimum of five hours (I used to say “eight hours” but the Desmos graphing calculator has made the test easier) of test prep will be needed to make a significant difference for most students. The tests (especially the SAT) are too different from their daily work, and are designed to expose all of a students’ weaknesses, so it takes time to make the sort of change that is generally required to improve an SAT, ACT or PSAT score. To make an impact, and significantly change someone’s skill level it takes frequent, skilled tutoring & training as well as a commitment by the student to do daily extra practice over a period of at least five weeks.

Test Prep is a Great Investment

Test prep is a great investment in your child’s future. With their hard work and our experience, they can increase their college scholarship awards, earn a Bright Futures Scholarship, the Florida Benacquisto Scholarship, attend a better college, and improve their skills for college. Read how happy our students and their families are about their investment on our testimonials page.

Transformative Tutoring is without a doubt the best investment we ever made for our son. He started a new school and was totally lost in Algebra – we would spend hours on homework every evening and preparing for tests and he was failing – no matter how much effort he put in, every week was an F. He was so frustrated and his self-esteem was really suffering. Kennon got him on track – beyond on track – he has an 89.65 average this quarter and after tomorrow’s test that may even be an A. He’s excited about his Algebra midterm. “Transformative” is truly the only apt description for the difference Kennon and team has made for our family.

What Test Prep Materials are Included?

We have created specialized strategies for helping students improve, as well as sets of carefully specialized, targeted practice exercises for our students. To help our students work independently (and require fewer hours of in person tutoring), and improve as much as possible, many of these exercises come with answers and explanations provided with each problem. We also have comprehensive final review packets that will help give your student that final boost that will hopefully help them meet their goals. Our customized formula and concept review packet is also provided to each student.
