Introduction: I am a retired university professor; I have a Ph.D. in measurement and evaluation (the degree for those who make the SAT/ACT/ASVAB etc.) and a Master's Degree in Clinical Psychology (so I also help students with memory tricks, time management, and to overcome test anxiety). I make learning fun. I have a number of tricks and tips that help students learn faster while at the same time making them smile. I think of ways that the student will eventually use the information in real life too. This way, their brain will retain what they learn. I love seeing the light bulb go on over someone's head. They have just had an "ah-hah" moment and that gives me a charge.

Dr. Lunsford got back to us very quickly and was able to work immediately with our daughter. She responded to him right away as she said he gave her very useful tips and better understanding of how things are worded on the ACT. We are looking forward to continued success in working with him.

Dr. Lunsford is extremely time efficient. Our lesson targeted all of my needs and I acquired new skills in just one session. I really appreciated all of the helpful practice material he provided. I look forward to continuing my exam preparations and marking my progress with this company.

I had a few math tutors, but this company is fantastic. Kevin is very knowledgeable, and he works with my son's schedule. My son is taking AP Calculus, and Kevin helps him once or twice a month. Mr. Lunsford is extremely responsive to your needs, and he helped my son with his SAT prep in just two sessions, resulting in a 100-point score increase. You will not be disappointed if you hire this company. I will use them for my son through college.

Details: College • SAT1 • Math • Writing • Not yet scheduled • My home, venue, etc.

Kevin Kreighbaum has been a blessing and a math grade savior! I cannot say enough good things about our experience with him and Tutor With the Best! Although the tutoring is virtual Kevin has it nailed down the process so that it is incredibly effective. Kevin has an easygoing style that puts my son at ease. My son’s confidence and understanding has improved exponentially. The math tutoring quality was the priority but Kevin has also been flexible and accommodating when I incorrectly scheduled sessions. My only wish is that we had found Tutor With the Best sooner!

Working with Dr.Lunsford has been awesome. It just two months my act score went up 6 whole points!! He has a great personality and is always doing his best to get the most out of our sessions as possible. He also cares a lot for his student. Making sure I understand the problem 100% before moving on to the next one.

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
$60 an hour. There is no need to book more than one session at a time. No commitments are needed concerning time frame - I am flexible to work within the timeframe of the client.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
You are welcome to book a time with me to have a consultation or go straight to the calendar to either book a time to come to me or to a mutually convenient place and I also have a wonderful program which will enable me to work with you online. It enables me to see you, you to see me, and for me to write on my screen and you see the answers appear on your screen. I can also see the things that appear on your screen when you want me to see it. I can record the entire session so that you can go back and watch it again for the things that you missed first time.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I am a retired university professor (University of South Florida, University of Florida, Keiser University, St. Leo University, and University of Tampa); I have a Ph.D. in measurement and evaluation (the degree for those who make the SAT/ACT/ASVAB etc.) and a Master's Degree in Clinical Psychology (so I also help students with memory tricks, time management, and overcoming test anxiety).
