About the Instructor

As an extensively trained and certified professional instructor, I serve as a mentor who guides your children through their work while also providing direction, support and encouragement. I create an at-home study plan in addition to monitoring classroom assignments, and I emphasize the importance of accurately completing each assignment within a designated time frame. This has helped many of my students increase self-confidence, thus becoming more self-reliant. Like all Kumon Instructors, I have a true passion for education and an earnest desire to help children succeed.

Heath was raised in Hawaii and attended high school in Beaverton. When he was in middle school, he struggled with his algebra course so his parents signed him up for Kumon. The lessons he learned from Kumon were integral when he went to college where Heath graduated with a degree in Sports Medicine while playing basketball for Angelo State University in Texas. Heath later received a Master’s degree in Education from George Fox University with a focus on special education and students with disabilities.

Heath's passions outside of Kumon and education include his wife and son, basketball, CrossFit, and his two extra-large dogs, Reggie and Buddy.

Heath is SUPER excited to be taking over the Kumon of Beaverton - South and looks forward to continuing his mother's work of over 21 years in the Beaverton community!
