Tutoring With Dr. Douglas Lunsford
After spending 35 years starting and running small businesses, Dr. Lunsford returned to college with the objective of becoming an educator in the field of Psychology and Mathematics. As he worked to obtain a Masters degree in Clinical Psychology and a PhD in Measurement and Evaluation, he realized there was an enormous gap between how material was being presented by professors and how it was being absorbed by students at all academic levels.
He began teaching at the University of South Florida in 1998 and soon had contracts with a number of local universities to teach their classes also. He worked in the tutoring center at University of South Florida helping students grasp difficult concepts and found that he was able to explain in a very short time what other professors were spending hours conveying.
As of today, Dr. Lunsford has tutored hundreds of clients, of all ages (elementary students through doctoral students!), from all over the world, both in person and online.

“Outstanding tutor! I wish I had found Dr. Lunsford earlier on in my Calculus I class, but nonetheless the couple of sessions we had together in preparation for my final exam made the difference! I received an A on the final thanks in large part for his expertise in breaking down a few difficult concepts I had been hung up on. Dr. Lunsford is extremely knowledgeable, professional and takes the time to ensure I understand the underlying principles behind the calculations. He has a very intuitive sense of explaining things from different angles so that the student is able to tackle a wide variety of problems. If you are looking for a math tutor, please stop your search right here and give Dr. Lunsford a call. He will exceed your expectations! I will be utilizing him again when I begin my calculus II class and look forward to the sessions! “
“Doctor Lunsford is a fantastic academic and performance coach with endless experience! I worked with Dr. Lunsford for over two years, multiple times per week! He is amazing in all aspects of doctoral dissertation coaching and life coaching. I also referred two close friends to him, which also were highly successful in completing their doctoral degrees. Thanks to his guidance and coaching, I was first in my cohort to complete my doctoral study.”
“Dr. Lunsford is an outstanding mathematics instructor who is a pleasure to work with. I have three home-schooled teenagers who appreciate his upbeat attitude and his ability to simplify complicated math concepts. My kids look forward to weekly study sessions with Dr. Lunsford, and enjoy the academic success that accompanies excellent tutelage.”
“Dr. Lunsford helped to prepare me for the GRE and I was able to surpass my goal score in the quantitative section. I felt like I had ZERO math skills prior to meeting with him, and I felt so confident walking into the exam. I’ve always had a difficult time understanding math, and he made it easier for me!”
“Thank you and I mean that. My son ABSOLUTELY loves his tutor. At first, he was sick with anxiety now he can’t wait for his next session. I was told by medical professionals that “he’s not capable” so just let him “just do as he pleases.” Teachers would send him to the special Ed room where kids would drool on themselves, not that I’m being cruel to those children, but I knew my son had more potential and I knew he deserved more! ♥️ I’m so glad I listened to myself and all the more glad and THANKFUL for you and Dr Lunsford!! He has really done wonders with my son and his self esteem! I almost have to tell him “You’ve done enough school work, now.” LOL he sincerely enjoys it! 🥰 That man is a miracle worker with getting it to just click. I knew my son was capable, but he just needed help flicking that switch on, and Dr Lunsford has done that! I could never truly tell you enough how thankful and appreciative I am for this!!!! 🤗”
“Simply the best tutor we ever had. Difficult to find a tutor like him. Lot of knowledge and hints to do things simple. My son loves the way he teaches. Very professional, knowledgeable and respectful person. Thanks for your fast response and availability to help us. A++++++”
“Dr. Lunsford is the first tutor that our son could relate to and also helped to feel that he could overcome any fear or barrier towards test taking. Our son is motivated and feels valued. Dr. Lunsford is hands down the best at what he does. Compared to other tutoring agencies, he is kind, attentive and knows his area of expertise. I would HIGHLY recommend him!!”
“Helped me get an A on both of my segment exams for geometry, very fast reply time, extremely polite and professional and made the math fun for me! I went to his home which is in a very nice area, and there was the nicest puppy there too!! I did the next class remotely, and it was just as easy as in person, I highly recommend his work to anyone!”
“Dr. Lunsford is an excellent tutor for any type of math at any age level. My two boys had a low to mid B in AP geometry. One is in 9th grade and the other is in 10th. Their goal is to finish with straight A’s every semester. We hired Dr Lunsford to assist them in understanding how to work through the geometry problems better, and he did. Both of my boys finished with an A in the class. My boys stated that Dr. Lunsford is very smart and can work through any problems you put in front of him. They also believe the way he runs the tutor session is very effective.”
“Dr.Lunsford is an amazing tutor! I had major gaps in my learning from not having a 7th grade math teacher in school. Our tutoring sessions quickly caught me up to speed and allowed me to excel on my GRE test. I had taken the test multiple times without success before getting tutoring and with Dr.Lunsford’s help I was able to raise my score by 6 points which is a significant amount. I would not have been able to achieve the score I needed without his help. He has the most calm voice and also helped me overcome my test anxiety. He really is the best!!”
“Dr. Lunsford is amazing. After just one session, my daughter was able to get an A- on her AP Stats test. He was patient and explained things so she really understood the concepts. We look forward to having him work with our daughter once a week for the rest of the school year.”
“We cannot recommend Dr. Lunsford enough! He worked with my son and brought his SAT score up so that he qualified for The 100% Florida Bright Futures Scholarship. What is interesting is that even though he specializes in Math, and my son even got him to help with his calculus homework on occasion, the biggest jump in his score was in the Reading and Writing section. My son really connected with Dr. Lunsford and feels like he can be an ally in his education, even in college, if that makes sense. Money and time well spent!”
