About Your Instructor
HECTOR GUY
Hi! I’m Hector Guy, the instructor for the Kumon Math and Reading Center of Union City – Alvarado. I’ve been a Kumon instructor since 2008, and over the many years, it has been a joy to work with students of all ages and abilities.
I first learned of the Kumon program through my three kids. I enrolled my son, Harvey, in the Kumon program in 1988 as a kindergartner and quickly saw the benefits. His transformation was amazing! I saw the positive changes in his academics and an increase in his confidence. Later on, I enrolled my other two children in the program as well.
Before opening my center, I worked as an IT manager for over 20 years. Working in IT, I enjoyed developing and working with my staff to improve their skills and abilities. During this time, I also started helping at my wife’s Kumon center in Milpitas and Evergreen. While working at the Milpitas and Evergreen locations for over a year, I noticed many similarities in the method of developing staff and students.
After attending a Kumon conference and listening to other instructor’s stories and experiences of developing students, I decided that I wanted to become a Kumon instructor as well! Over the years, I witnessed how the Kumon program can be tailored to every student depending on their abilities, needs and goals. As an instructor, I make it a point to individualize my lesson planning and instruction to suit the needs of every family.
I look forward to connecting with your family and planning your child’s path to success!
