Online Multisensory Math Tutoring Services
Kirk’s Tutoring
Welcome to Kirk’s Tutoring! This website is designed to help you understand how multisensory math tutoring supports students in learning math more effectively—and why this approach continues to help students succeed.
While working in public schools, I saw that teachers, through no fault of their own, could not always meet the academic needs of every student. Some students need math explained in a different way. Those are the students I work with—students who may not thrive in a traditional classroom setting, but can succeed with the right support.
Online Multisensory Math & Math Therapy
since 2010
Kirk’s Tutoring is led by one person—Kirk. I began working as a pediatric respiratory therapist in 1991 and have worked with children almost continuously since then. Kirk’s Tutoring was established in 2010 after I left the classroom to homeschool my sons.
In 2015, I discovered Mortensen Math and have used it as the foundation of my multisensory math tutoring services ever since. Through working with students with Dyscalculia and math-related learning challenges, I have expanded my approach to include what many refer to as math therapy, helping students rebuild confidence and understanding.
At this time, I work with clients online across the United States, offering one-on-one tutoring, small group math classes, academic coaching, executive functioning support, and multisensory math training. My clients are roughly split between homeschooled students and those attending traditional schools.
Build Confidence Through Multisensory Math Tutoring
My goal is for every student to feel confident in their ability to learn, understanding that how they learn best may be different from how others learn. I want each student to develop independence and the skills needed to approach math with clarity and confidence.
When students begin to understand math in a way that works for them, that confidence often extends beyond academics and into other areas of their lives.
Online Math Tutoring That Helps Every Student Succeed
Every student can learn math when it is explained in a way they understand. The goal is to provide accessible online math tutoring that supports students in overcoming challenges, building confidence, and achieving long-term success.
If I am not the right fit for a student, I will help guide them to someone who can provide the support they need.
